And it'll be difficult for them to want to, since they weren't part of all this.

[ from their point of view, it wouldn't really make any sense to want to change the formula. ]

Do you think it might be possible to convince them? Even if it's not some sort of wild, drastic change all at once. Something gradual.

[drymonster]

I don't know.

Well... we did go to some pretty crazy lengths for the sake of getting this fruit we thought was going to magically improve our lives. So... maybe, if I really had something to show for it that they'd want badly enough for themselves.

I know that not everything here has been good. Well... most things haven't been, really. But if any of it has helped push you closer to being the kind of person you wish to be, I think you should hold onto that.

I wouldn't want you to reset, like you haven't learned anything. You've done so many brave, amazing things, and I hope your brothers can see that.

[ oh...

i feel like his ears are turning a little red as he blushes and it's just making him bleed through his ear bandage faster ]

Haha... You think so?

I'm not sure they'll be that impressed, but... mm. I guess maybe Jyushimatsu-niisan and Karamatsu-niisan would be, at least.

[ DON'T BLEED ]

Mmhm. It might be like... even when you tried to change before, you were still stuck in those parameters, right? But now you did all the changing after. Sometimes all it takes is that outside influence.

Although, probably don't tell your brothers about the weird stuff.

[drymonster]

What here doesn't qualify as weird stuff?
