Sorry, it's - a lot of things are still, like, coming in bits and pieces, or maybe it's that I don't know what's real and what isn't? Maybe I'm finally losing it.

[ well, not exactly, but he gets the point she’s making which is that she doesn’t know what’s the origin of her reality right now. he knows these places can feel very real, no matter how false they might seem in retrospect.

I don't think it's just two. We went through - a lot, there. And I think I remember each of them. But I don't know how to tell which life was... real? Real isn't the right word.
[pausing to try and ensure she doesn't sound like she's losing her mind even though she is]
But, which one is the one I'm actually living and which ones are over? I keep feeling like each one was the right one, and the one on top keeps changing.
They’re all real. Or— well. Maybe not. But real enough right now. I think what’s important is at this moment you are playing in the Reaper’s Game, and are currently in Shibuya after your untimely death. Familiar?

That happens, after these things. Losing a bit of the whole grasp of reality thing. I think it passes normally. But, um, no guarantees I suppose.

Do you know a place called Elegy?

My... My sister was alive in the last one. [...] Do you know a way to go back?

Sorry, I don't mean to, like... unload on you.

You can talk to me about it. If anything I understand better, right?
