It sounded impossible, on the surface of it--people coming from different points in time. But how possible was the Dark Hour? Chidori's stubbornly real heartbeat? Maybe it was all a strange dream as she lingered in death, but that seemed unlikely--if Chidori was dreaming, Junpei would be present in one way or another. Even if he turned away from her or didn't remember her or some other nightmarish thing, he would be here. Chidori would simply have to accept this as reality and roll with it as well as she could.

Strega was not here, except for her. That was possibly for the best--Chidori didn't think she could face Takaya with equanimity now, not after what he'd done to Junpei. She had repaired the damage done, but it was still something she found difficult to forgive. But it seemed SEES didn't know what had happened between her and Junpei in the end, and therefore they would be unlikely to help her. So she was on her own. Unless... six weeks? Maybe. "What was the date, do you know? The last day your Mitsuru remembers?"
