Is... this where Yoite is from?

[I mean, seeing as there are all kinds of ghosts here, he just feels as though he's right at home in this place.]

Maybe I can find my old house? Mother?

[Not the only one looking for his mother...

Gau pauses before asking a lot more quietly than he usually does,]

Mother...

[He thinks he gets it now.]

So...these feelings of being watched...

They're...ghosts?

[Voice]

[am_i_even_alive]

[ We can look together? ]

I believe so.

Miharu's grandmother once told him, that there is a borderland, between this life and the after. Only those close to death are able to feel and see it.

[He really doesn't mean to be as morbid as that sounded.]

[Voice]

[justice_by_coma]

[WHAT? A DATE, YOITE? YOU WANT TO GO ON A DATE LOOKING FOR DEAD THINGS IN THE TOWN? UWAAAAAH*starts writing entry immediately*

The borderline. He touches his chest thoughtfully, suddenly troubled by that.]

Yoite-kun...do you think...maybe I'm still in my coma?

[Tension time.]

I remember you saving me! I do, but...someplace like this...

Dp you think maybe that might be why we're both here but nobody else form home stays?

[an edge of panic. This new hypothesis terrifies him. Because that would mean that at some point in the future, Raikou will be close to death, if nothing else...]

[ What's a date ? ... will there be cake? if there is cake, its a date. ]

I ... maybe.

[Probably not the answer you wanted to hear, huh? but this is Yoite you're talking to, it only makes sense in his lonely mind, that he is in fact a figment of your imagination. It makes it easier in a way, to accept. He always thought he was a ghost, so why not just a really bad imaginary friend?]

Maybe Gau-kun is dead? Maybe Yoite never brought him back... I ... I'm not alive... I'm just a ghost ...

[he's not even thinking about anyone else right now, he's selfishly curling up into a ball where he had been standing.]
