I don't know yet. Mitsuru's the one who's going to have to look into that. I know saying we'll do it is probably easier than actually doing it, but I still mean it.

[ otherwise a lot of people have died for nothing. ]

He must have been working with Mitsuru's grandfather somehow. I don't know how he covered it up, though.

I don't either but why would they want to do all of this.

[In his mind, it made no sense to why people would just go to great lengths to create the Fall.]

...What's the point?

[ Akihiko looks sad, for a moment, sucking in his cheeks a little and then chewing on them before he speaks. ]

Kirijo-san said his father was obsessed with 'death as deliverance'. I think maybe the prospect of living was too much for them anymore.

[ He doesn't say it, but it's clear he's thinking of someone else who couldn't live with himself when he says it - Shinji. He glances Ken over after he says it, too, concerned; he has no idea what Ken actually planned to do after killing Shinji, but he has an idea. ]

[In that moment, Ken immediately looked up at Akihiko in shock. He never said anything to him about ending his life. Was he that obvious about his intentions? He supposed it was as he didn't hide his own despair. Giving a sigh, he quickly looked away.]

....Then I don't blame them. It is difficult to keep on living after so much pain was placed on them.

[amperor]

I know.

[ He's not going to lecture Ken about how living is hard; he knows that Ken is well familiar with it. There were times he wanted to give up after Miki's death, and the day after Shinji's, it felt like the earth had cracked beneath him. It'd been tempting to give up and let it swallow him.

He had promises to keep, though. ]

That doesn't mean that they get to decide everyone else's fate, though.
