[sitting at a desk in the middle of the Astral Plane, working on his paperwork like a good little nancy boy. And, like a good little nancy boy, he's listening to a broadway musical. On the glasses Fumie gave him, to be specific.

In fact, he's singing along to one. Yes indeed, Sam's singing "If You Were Gay."]

Maybe give us another thirty-three years and it won't be. I can hope, anyway.

[smiles and turns another page] I guess I believe in the importance of what I'm doing. Which, probably, is the reason no one else does it; they don't realise that it has to be done.

Ne, then I hope I can make it that long. With Saya at home, I'm worried about whether or not I'll get to see. But that makes the Astral Plane...a little better. Now that she's actually here and they're trying to schedule that performance, I think I'm afraid to die. Or at least now since I have friends like Sam that I don't really want to leave behind.

Hmm, that's a good way to think of it. Well, then I guess it's good you take it seriously!

...If you told Saya that you were trying to change, would she stop?

I doubt she'd believe me. My Chevalier don't. Amshel especially doesn't. He said I should stop being silly.

Would she believe me?

I...well...She might, I'm not sure. But...How would Sam be able to meet sister?

It's possible... Sometimes, people's worlds seem to merge together. Minato and Fumie's overlap a lot. Mine's merged in some places with theirs, too. So if ours merged enough, she'd be able to see me and I'd be able to see her.

...Sister...{She smiles and looks down} If Sam could do that, and if Sam could make her believe that I can change, I'd be...It would be--{And she has a thought and shakes her head}

No, no, no, if Sam can see Saya, then Sam could see my Chevalier. Sam can't meet them.

[frowns] Why not?

I like Sam. My Chevalier are my knights, and my Chevalier don't...Other people can't be around me without them knowing. I don't want Amshel to kill Sam because I like Sam.

...Oh. Understandable, then.

But...I'd like that. I really would. I think that Saya would believe a stranger. Sam, if you could talk to her...I think she would at least give me a chance.

Then, if I can, I will. I definitely will.

Just have to figure out how to encourage our worlds to merge. [tilts head] Maybe ought to warn the Guv. ...Nah, he can deal with random bits of New York.

I think Gene will be fine. New York is a big, bustling city, but it's alright. Not a huge shock, I mean.

Ne, but what made yours merge with Minato and Fumie's?

I don't know. When Meredith Sault was talking to the Guv about it - well, when Meredith Sault was talking about it and the Guv was not listening very well - she said something about... 'closeness'? I'm not sure what she meant, but it had something to do with that.

Closeness? {Considers it before she smiles} Then if that's it, it makes me think that they could. If Sam and I are friends, that's being close, right?

I think that's what she means, yeah. So, I might well be able to help you out.

Well, if you see some New York, tell me. Or well, I'll tell you if I see some...Manchester, is it?

Manchester, 1973, yeah.

Do the...people overlap too? I mean, just on the street or something, would I be able to see Sam?

Actually, I think you can see me... anywhere, if we happen to bump into each other. It's sort of like the worlds are... lain, one on top of the other. I know I could see Fumie and she could see me, even before things started to come together. It's the other people in your world seeing me that seems to be the problem.

Well, in any case, it'd be nice to see Sam outside of here. It's pretty, but...Well, it was only really amazing the first couple of times. It'd be nice to see the people here back at "home", you know?

Is it safe for you, there?

Safe? It's fine. Since we'll be staying here for a while, Amshel rented out a very nice apartment, so it's not quite in the heart of town as the hotel was. Besides...I've been in there lately. But I'm going to a party this week, so I think I'll be able to go outside again soon~

I meant with your sister and everything.
