Shohei leaned up against a lamp post, it's dim light flickering in the darkness. Despite in dim flare, it was practically the sun in the midst of the darkness of this village. He had been here once, and prior to this particular job, the unnerving and doubtful atmosphere this darkness had never caught his attention. He flinched as he fiddled with the item in his jacket's pocket. A pocket watch. And according to the portable masterpiece, the was there on time for the job... with two others. No, not bean sprout or the white haired dumbo, two foreigners within the regions of his 'friendships'.
He had been patiently waiting at this particular lamp post for them, not excited for what to come. But certainly not wanting to go back now. He had to familiarize himself with the shameful reality of Fiore's problems. This was one of many. But at the thought of this, he spoke.
"The past makes you wanna die out of regret and future makes you depressed out of anxiety. So by elimination, the present is likely the happiest time."
He concluded. Yes, that was his answer to that spontaneous question that wasn't originally a question. Was that the problem people bestowed him with? For being a know it all? He shrugged it off, 'so long as a problem doesn't cause problems, it can't be called a problem.' He chuckled, this is certainly why he preferred to be alone. This is certainly why he is always halfway there when he is involved with friendships and the hardships that come with it.
When people reach the halfway mark of a long ordeal, how do they feel? Does being only halfway there make them despair? Or do they feel relief at making it halfway there? Most people have to feel one way or the other, and both emotions create an opening in their hearts. That's why he pushed myself this far. Far enough to tolerate the idea of cooperating with others. No matter how often they preach their thoughts, ideas, and ideals.
He sighed, "Whatever life is to come after this boring and annoying one, I will surely be a bear." Yes, an isolated, recluse, bear.
But then, he waited patiently for his partners to arrive.
