Summary
“It’s only for fun,” she answered, her gaze now moving to the heavy book resting on the table before him. “You have heard of fun, haven’t you?”
She lifted the cover to see what it was, expecting something dense and boring, and somehow it exceeded even her dismal expectations. On the Futility of Joy. She dropped it again to stare at him pointedly, taking great satisfaction in the way his smugness deflated into something much more wounded.

Summary
An icy stare narrowed, options rapidly being weighed against guarded suspicions. More than one reason gave him cause to walk away and leave the creature to its fate. But he did not demand a reason of himself as he knelt down, brushing aside a tangle of hair to expose a soft feminine face set in an expression of uneasy sleep. He felt carefully for a pulse, finding it weak but steady beneath his touch, and asked himself a question he already knew the answer to.
If he was indeed condemned to die here, at least he wouldn’t want for conversation.

Summary
“Would we even remember this place?” he asked harshly now, and he was caught hopelessly between the desire to remember and forget. It turned his next words to a pitiful murmur. “Would you—remember me?”
She smiled just the same, and he wondered if the light in her eyes was as much an illusion as the rest of the world around them.
“I could never forget.”

Summary
The Scout was trying so hard to let his mother be happy while fighting the instinct to protect a supposedly dead father that he still felt loyalty to. A father he had never even met.
Blind loyalty, he knew, was perhaps the worst kind.

Summary
How odd, he mused, that he would end up closest to her out of everyone in the cast of characters before him. She had never seemed particularly interesting to him before—nowhere near as interesting as Neku was, to be sure—but something about her struck him as … genuine.

Summary
'Loneliness?' she wonders, both aloud and in her head. The distinction between the two mattered not in a place such as this, where the waters of reality were murky and grey. 'Am I lonely?'
For all their gentle omniscience, the waves around her do not answer.

Nice Rei-typical dissociative introspection.
