この望みが叶うのなら もう一度だけでよかった

If my wishes were granted just one more time, that would have been good

願い続けるこの想いは 届かないのだろうけれど

I know my continuing wishes never reach their destination, but…

近くて遠いこの距離の中 僅かな可能性に委ねた だけど･･･

At this distance, I’m so close yet so far away, I risked myself for such a slim possibility, but…

お前が幸せならばと これでいいんだと それでいいんだと

As long as you’re happy, this is alright. That is all alright.

言い聞かせてもまだ 痛み続ける

Even when I tell myself that, the pain goes on

心の中の 「真実」を 塗りつぶした

Painting over the concept of ‘truth’ in my heart

それぞれ違う道を歩み すれ違いを繰り返して

We each walk different paths, passing by each other, over and over again

隠しながら演じながら ただ隣で眺めてた

Whilst I hide it, whilst I act, all I’ve been doing is looking at your side from afar

近くて遠いこの距離の中 確信の無い未来に賭けた

At this distance, I’m so close yet so far away, gambling in a future I have no faith in

どうか、思い出して

Please, remember!

共に過ごした事 共に感じた事

The time we spent together, the things we felt together

あの言葉を信じて お前を選んで良かった

Believe those words, I’m glad that I chose you

お前と共に歩んでく

I’ll start to walk together with you

これからずっと この先ずっと

Always from now on, forever after this

失った日々はまた 埋めていけばいい

We can still make up our lost days

溢れるくらい 幸せを作っていこう

Let’s make our happiness overflow

一緒に

Together

Thanks for reading!

Iochi: Oh? A message from Akase.

Banjo: From Akase? Is it something urgent?

Haiji: Hmmm? It says: "A question for Iochi. Who do you think would have the deepest friendships?"

Iochi: Hey, hey, you shouldn't be peeking at people's devices, you know? But, someone who seems to have the deepest friendships, huh…

Haiji: What is a 'big friendship'? Having a heavy friend?

Banjo: Wrong. It means you care a lot about your friends, stuff like that.

Iochi: I think someone like Dazai? He’s very observant of those around him and seems like the type who could never leave anyone behind.

Banjo: That seems likely. He does have that good-natured aura to him. ...I'm thinking of Chigasaki.

Haiji: Why?

Banjo: He can't leave anyone behind either, right? It has to be because he is a kind person.

Haiji: Does being a kind person mean having deep friendships?

Iochi: You can't say that's a rule, but… there's the mental image that many are like that. Haiji, who do you think?

Haiji: Me? I think...

Banjo: Huh? What are you looking-... Aah. So Gyobu is there, in the garden.

Iochi: ...that means, Haiji, you think Gyobu has deep friendships?

Haiji: Yeah, that's what I think.

Banjo: Isn't he like the coldest one when it comes to friendships?

Iochi: He's hard to figure out, isn't he? I do wonder what he's really like.

CHIGASAKI: ...hm? A message from Gyobu has...

EBANA: From that guy? I bet it's some nonsense, right?

FUTAMI: What was it about?

CHIGASAKI: It says... "Hiyaaa☆ Chigasaki! Just a mere question, who do you think would survive even on a deserted island?'' seems like that's all.

EBANA: Stuuuuuuuuuuuuuupid...

FUTAMI: Doesn't Akase seem like he would be able to survive? He probably has good survival skills.

EBANA: huh? Why are you responding so serious-

CHIGASAKI: That's right, I think someone like Haiji would kinda be able to survive. He would just live doing his own thing even on a desert island.

EBANA: I said, WHY are you being so seri-

FUTAMI: And Ebana? Who do you think would survive?

CHIGASAKI: We would really like to hear your opinions on this matter so please, go ahead.

EBANA: Oh, u-uh... I-iochi... maybe? When they smashed that pumpkin the other day..., I feel like they'd somehow be able to manage.

FUTAMI: Aah. certainly... I bet they'd survive as if everything was normal.

AKASE: ...I have nothing to do. Ugh, I know this isn't the situation to be saying that I'm free but I'm free.

DAZAI: If you're free, why don't you go outside and investigate? (could be interpreted as we)

GYOBU: Then, why don't we chat?

AKASE: Chatting...? 'bout what?

GYOUBU: For times like this, we use this app that I don't really get why is even here to decide on a topic~~~

DAZAI: ...Hm? What did it say?

GYOBU: It says [Someone you wouldn't want to make your enemy] ...Anyone comes to mind?

AKASE: An enemy... huuhhh. Ooh, maybe someone like Futami? He seems like the type who could be scary if you anger him.

DAZAI: I get what you say. ...For me, it's Banjo, yup.

AKASE: Banjo? Why?

DAZAI: ...Like, doesn't he seem like he holds grudges for quite a while?

GYOBU: 100%~~? I think I'm going with Kei-chan...

DAZAI: Ebana? In comparison, isn't he the least dangerous...? Even though he does lose his temper.

GYOBU: 'Cause!! He's definitely leaving you without food. You'd hate it right.

AKASE: That'd be terrible!!!!!
