Yes. Being clean helped. [Every moment helped really, knowing he was here and not there. But it was also strange. He's trying to clasp onto the small things and the shower had definitely helped.]
Hey, uh, Shion? [Setsuna's voice is small on the feed, and wary.] I'm so sorry.... For getting caught and all that. And just leaving you like that.
[A couple days later, when Setsuna hasn't gotten a reply, he leaves another message.]
Shion? You okay? You mad at me? You got every right to be. But it doesn't seem like you to not say something back.
[The next day.]
Shion? You doing all right? Seriously? What gives? I don't even know who your roommates are [he knows them, just doesn't realize they live with Shion] to ask. You better be okay!
[A few days later. Subdued.]
Shion? I haven't seen you around.....
[A week after the last message.]
I hope you got out of here. You never belonged here in the first place. Still. I miss you.
You, my prized guest, have made it twelve months in your journey towards redemption. I know that there have been bumps along the way and we haven't always seen eye to eye, but I do wish to show my gratitude. Together, we will all leave Hell one day.
I have handpicked gifts specifically for you to commemorate this anniversary. I do hope you enjoy them.
The offer to go to a world where he can be with Nezumi without the conflict of his own.
Access to restricted books in the library. These will all be in an ancient language, but he can possibly persuade the demons to help him translate. They seem to be mostly fictional tales, but there may be hidden gems of truth in there.
A coupon to get another sinner out of up to two future punishments.
Again, I thank you for all of your help in making Hell what it is today.
