This is no attempt, Hades. But I also can't force you to try, either. I can only do these things and hope it all sinks in someday. You're frustrated because you don't want it... I'm frustrated because I do. But in the end, the weight of my will is negligible in this.

[In fact, it's pretty negligible as far as this entire world goes. He's pointed that out already, but at least she knows how to try and make the most of her time. Part of that had been looking forward to perhaps getting on better terms with him, and it had looked like she was making progress, but... maybe it was just never meant to be. Maybe she and Mira were always on the arse end of some huge joke the whole time, one no one but Vanitas seems to have really noticed.]

I'll leave the food on the counter. If you truly don't want any, I'll eat it myself and figure something else out.
