Minato | Pharos | 029

[messianic]

[It is fair to say that Minato has not seen Pharos in a very long time.

It is fair to say--through struggles and hardships, through battles and The End--that Minato has not seen one of his very good friends since long before.

Pharos was a key player in this drama.

Minato thinks, sometimes, that it's funny that it would be so long since he'd seen him.

But Elizabeth is a power that cannot be matched in the universe, and Erebus can be withheld by more than just a lonely boy's soul--

And so it comes to pass that Minato is not so trapped anymore. But he's also not quite sure what to do.

He ends up in a park, on a bench, watching life pass by him, just for the brief moment.

...And then he ends up asleep on said bench. Whoops. Help him out here, Pharos.]

[...What an odd question, he can't help but think. It wasn't one he had even thought of, when he'd made the statement he did.

As per usual, Pharos had a way of making him think about things that he otherwise had never considered.

At least some things never changed.]

I don't see what the things I've done have to do with their journeys in life.

[Not entirely true--he knows what Pharos is getting at, but still, still.]

I wouldn't say I'm prioritizing, just that I would rather not interrupt them now that they've got their own lives. Besides--I don't need to. I have you for company.

[So he won't get lonely, not with a good friend here.]
