Sorry. But it is.

[nothalfbad]

But I can't—I-I promised I would protect her.

[brokenbird]

I'm sorry.

[nothalfbad]

[oh no look what you did]

N-No! No! Does that mean I wasn't strong enough?!

[brokenbird]

Sometimes bad things happen and its not your fault.

[nothalfbad]

It is! It is! If I'd been there with her—if I'd trained more—!

[POOF! your tanuki is now a real boy]

[brokenbird]

WHOA you're a person too?!

[nothalfbad]

[please hold, a little busy crying here]

I failed her!

[brokenbird]

[... :(

I'll just. Let you have feelings]

[nothalfbad]

[a-after a little]

I don't feel dead...

[brokenbird]

You're alive again. But...not at home. And we don't know a way to get back to our homes.

This is a whole other world.

[nothalfbad]

[brokenbird]

Watanuki Banri.

Thanks.

[brokenbird]

No problem. [shrugs]

People helped me when I arrived.

[nothalfbad]

... Why are we here?

[brokenbird]

The gods. They want people to help their world. Nature is kinda overrunning things and they want us to fight it back and stuff.
