Enkidu waits for her right outside the door. They know she has been sick and they also know they hadn't been very good at taking care of her.

"I hope I can make it up to you." It is the first thing Enkidu says when they see Hakuno. "I have walked Sachertarte and took care of Butter Cake. Ah..."

How to tell that they have had a lot of things going on. Losing Gil, going back to Chaldea and returning again. Memories that have changed, friends that disappeared. Bonding yet again.

"...I think the best thing I can say right now is that I will do better in the future..." They extend a hand. "...as long as that future might take..."

it is...........

In this moment, for this moment, Hakuno does not make her usual token protest against their use of the word 'friend' for her. It still feels not-quite-right, for all that it should suit her arrangement with Gilgamesh.

"It would be nice if he did," she says, squeezing their hand. "He'd be pretty upset, if something had the audacity to try and meddle with his memories."

Especially ones of Enkidu.

"Hurry up and finish your solo adventure, King of Heroes," she tells the mirror, cold and unresponsive as it is. "I'm more Fae now, so having such a quiet home is a bit unnerving."

Enkidu chuckles softly. That is true. First of all, he is the king who overlooked humanity's future and second of all, he is Gil.

"I trust that he remembers." Yes, assuming he'd forget would mean they'd underestimate him. So they squeeze her hand in return, eyes still focused on the mirror in front of them.

"Hmm...and I still have to show you the treehouse. And I want you to meet Lio as well." They look at Hakuno for a moment. "The bed is cold without you in it. And quite big as well. I still have your wine and some of your newer possessions."

Every word has been said before because they have come here often. Just to talk, just to try to convince him to return and live this new life with them. Where they could be witches and start newer stories. A whole new book.

Perhaps one day they will find this mirror whole again.

"Where is he now, Hakuno?" She knows his new adventure the best. "Is he in a place that will not bore him?"
