Mid-Mission Downtime

1. [Dita's crying in the hangar, curled up in her dread. Come bother her?]

2. [Much later]

[Dita's working on cooking. She has a tear-stained cheeks but she's making food. Each bento is labeled for her friends. Is... she making a goodbye gift for everyone?]

Hana.

[Reaching out, her eyes were full of tears.]

I'm so sorry...

[And Hana returns the hug.]

...what happened?

That ship... It's from my world... my present, your future.

100 years from now, your world will become uninhabitable. People will live in a structure above the planet. They'll... do terrible things to remain alive.

...

We'll stop them. Things can change. The future isn't set in stone.

Even if it means us never meeting?

What makes you think that just because we can make a brighter future means that we won't meet?

You really think so? I thought if you changed the future, some things wouldn't happen. Just like us meeting one another...

Well, we don't know what could happen! Everything we see is on TV. I have faith that everything'll be alright.

Yeah. Thanks Hana. I just... feel really bad right now. Can you stay a while?

Of course... you've always been there for me whenever I was upset and I'll do the same for you...

Thank you Hana. [And she hugged her tighter. She needed so many friends right now, and it was making her break into fresh tears.]

Dita... don't cry...

[Hana's heart sank as Dita began crying once more, the PreDesu pilot tightening her own hug as she cried.]

[It was an awkward sight, a taller girl leaning her head against Hana's shoulder as she cried herself out. But maybe all these tears were for the best for the time being.]

[Maybe it was, but as it stood, Hana wasn't going to leave Dita's side and she was going to make sure that didn't change at all.]

[Once she was all cried out, and making a mess of Hana's shirt in the process, Dita wiped her eyes.] Thank you Haha. You've been one of my best friends since we met.

I... I have?

[Hana's eyes go wide at that, her cheeks turning red. It still felt weird to have friends, especially those who also cared about her...]

Mmhmm! And you know what? I wouldn't change the world for that. [And she leaned her head against Hana's shoulder.]

You're very dear to me, as with everyone else.

Dita...

[She can't help but tear up at that... she's important to someone. And they're glad she's around. Her arms can't help but tighten their hold on her.]

Can you do me a favor when this is all over? Can you and Eri come to my room after this? On the Nirvana? I want to thank you both.

Ah... um... s-sure! I wouldn't mind and I'm sure Eri wouldn't either!

Great! I promise I'll make it enjoyable.

And I know it will...

You feel better?

I am actually. Thanks for letting me get that all out there.
