voice;
[Souji's been feeling reflective lately, thinking over some things. It's elicited a question that he himself isn't sure he can answer. He wants to find out if others can, so, after some deliberation about whether or not it's a good idea, he takes to the network to ask.]
If you were able to change something in your life at home, what would it be?
[He's not sure he'll even get any answers. It's kind of a personal question. But he's hoping that some people will respond, if only to help him think through things himself.]

[action]
Really, were the two situations even comparable? Maybe more than he'd thought.]
I wonder if it's even worth it to think about it.
[He wasn't trying to shut down the conversation. It was an honest thought.]
[action]
[Since that's what Souji had asked.]
[action]
I mean...am I wasting my time? Thinking about it.
[action]
It's a good way to think about how you would've handled yourself differently.
[In case similar situations to any varying degree happened again in the future.]
[action]
I really wish I could change how things turned out. But I don't think they could have turned out any other way.
[action]
Me too. It's how it is like it was meant to be.
[action]
[He spoke quietly, almost to himself.]
But we'd have never realized Namatame wasn't the killer.
[action]
There are a lot of people we could have saved sooner. But we learned from it. We would've learned too if things had gone our way.
[action]
[But as they both knew, it had to turn out the way it had.]
[action]
If I ask for change, then it'll only leave me with "what if."
[action]
[So it really had been a waste of time.]
[action]
[Besides, it had been a segue anyway.]
[action]
No. I just mean that what ifs are natural.
[But maybe not necessary.]
[action]
Sometimes 'what if' can change into 'what can be' in that we can change our future into something closer to what we want it to be.
[action]
I like that way of looking at it.
[Though it didn't change the past, it did make some things seem less bleak.]
[action]
I think about it too. What else I would change.
[Because maybe there was one thing.]
[action]
[Souji knew what Minato was thinking of, even if he didn't say it. If he didn't want to or if he couldn't.]
[action]
[And again he circled back to having to be so grateful to this place, even if it was like some kind of glorified prison though Minato hadn't thought of it that way at all, not for himself, at least.]
You'll be my 'what will be.'
[action]
I promise I will be.
[action]
Thank you. So it's okay to think about it. It tells me who you really are.
[action]
[Or it felt like it, anyway.]
[action]
[And that was the wonderful thing about Souji. Souji was his everything and he knew everything about him. Minato was so happy too that he could know Souji, the real Souji.]
