Yes, she has. So have I, actually.

[proxyerror]

.. she's okay, right? And Beat and Rhyme, too?

[ What am I even asking? ]

[godbent]

Relatively speaking, for Shiki. I don't know is Beat can be bad, and Rhyme's fine.

[proxyerror]

[ ... I can't just let that go. ]

What do you mean, 'relatively speaking'?

[godbent]

I mean relatively speaking. She's closer to nineteen than fifteen, of course she has problems.

[proxyerror]

She's almost nineteen? I knew she was older, but I'd never asked..

[godbent]

Eighteen. She turned eighteen on her birthday in February. [Which was... six months ago. Okay so she's exaggerating]

[proxyerror]

She's an adult.

[ It feels really weird saying that.. ]

I'm pretty sure I used to be older than her.

[godbent]

It's not like she came of age, you know. Jeez. [Referring to this. Even if it's less popular in modern times]

[proxyerror]

I know that, but...

[ It's just weird to think about, okay? Do I even know her anymore? ]

..nevermind.

[godbent]

Don't you "nevermind" me, Neku! Come on, keep it up!

[proxyerror]

Keep what up?? There's nothing to keep up.

[godbent]

There's plenty to keep up. Shiki and the others have all been here a while and gotten used to some other version of you, but that doesn't make you irrelevant for it.

[proxyerror]

I never said I thought I was irrelevant.

[ It's snappy, irritated. ]

[godbent]

You were thinking it.

[proxyerror]

You don't know that.

[godbent]

I do too. People who show up to find their friends older and settled fit one or two molds - either they're annoyed their friends changed so much or they're wondering about their own relevancy anymore. [...She said in a super entitled way]

[proxyerror]

Maybe that's them, but that's not me! You can't just lump everyone into two groups like that!

[ Neku, you probably wouldn't be getting so angry if it weren't true.. ]

[godbent]

Did you forget I know you too?! Well... a different version of you.

[proxyerror]

A different version of me. Not me.

[godbent]

Wow, you're focusing on that... Well yeah, basically.

[proxyerror]

.. look, it's just going to take me a little time.

[ I've got to stop being worried about not measuring up to myself eventually, right? ]

[godbent]

Alright, far enough then.
