[Hewwo friend. Kashuu nods in greeting in return, before walking over to where she's standing and just kinda settling nearby.

He's quiet for a second, and then:]

...Do all humans get, like... fatigued? After stuff like this.

[He's thinking of physical fatigue, but he's close enough...]

[countermeasures]

Yes... that's fairly common.

[her soul is tired]

[slashay]

[Hm. He doesn't like it! He would like to stop being fatigued stat, actually.]

...It feels awful. [But he's sure it's only a sliver of what some people here are dealing with right now.] How do you guys deal with it, when it gets like this?

[countermeasures]

It varies from person to person.

...some people sleep the exhaustion away. Others look for things to help ease it - teas to provide energy, a soak in the springs to relieve tension, alcohol to make them forget what made them so tired...

Others simply force themselves to stay busy and distracted, so they can't think of how tired they are.

[slashay]

[Oh... He's definitely the latter. Wow! He even copes like a human.]

...But I guess there's not really an easy fix for whatever made you so tired in the first place, huh?

[He kind of wishes there was, instead of all of these different and varyingly healthy ways of coping with the aftermath.]

[countermeasures]

No.

There's no way to go back into the past and make it so it never happened.

[there's something very funny about saying this to a sword]

[slashay]

[Kashuu just like maybe the HRA is valid??

Not really but he definitely is quiet in thought for a few moments, expression relatively controlled despite the muddle of emotions he's dealing with.]

You really do just have to keep moving forward, huh... One step at a time.

[Ippon, ippon...]

[countermeasures]

[she nods]

If you don't move forward, you'll just get left behind. So you have to make yourself move forward even when it's hard to.
