Tsumugi...
Hisoka...Tsumugi.
Tsumugi?
Hisoka...What were those flowers you gave Alice before?
TsumugiHomare-san?
Oh, during the Mystery play. They’re called St. John’s wort.
Hisoka...I want you to pick which flowers I’m giving to my precious family too.
TsumugiHmm, in that case, I think he’d be happier if you choose the flowers yourself, Hisoka-kun.
HisokaBut I don’t know much about flower language.
TsumugiI think the feelings you put into the flowers are more important than the flower language.
Think of the person you’re giving it to, and try choosing one from this flower bed based on your intuition.
Hisoka...
...This one then.
TsumugiSweet peas, huh. I’m sure your feelings will reach him, Hisoka-kun.
...This one is from me to you.
Hisoka...For me?
TsumugiThey’re anemones.
Hisoka...What do they mean in flower language?
TsumugiDidn’t I say the feelings you put into the flowers are more important?

IzumiWah... It’s really beautiful here.
HomareIndeed. My poetic inspiration is welling up like a fountain.
TasukuWe’ve got something more important than that right now.
GuyThis area has a nice view, and it’s perfect for offering flowers.
TsumugiHisoka-kun.
Hisoka...Yeah.
AzumaAre you all right?
HisokaI’m fine... I’m just a little surprised because it’s not what I expected.
...I didn’t think it would be such a bright and quiet place.
AzumaI see.
Hisoka...My family, August, died here. He made me escape during his final moments.
I’d always lived on my own since I was a child. August was the one who took me in.
How to live, and the warmth of a “family”——August taught me all of it.
He was my family more precious to me than anybody else, but I couldn’t protect him. I couldn’t even say “thank you” or “goodbye.”
August wished for me to throw my past away and live a new life...
I thought that if I could live as “Mikage Hisoka” without anything tying me down, then I’d be able to tell you guys everything.
Because then I wouldn’t need to hide my identity anymore.
But, no matter what I did, I couldn’t throw away my past where I’d been “December”. Because my “family” was there.
My past of being “December”, and my memories of my “family”––to me they’re all connected. I can’t throw them away. I can never forget them.
Everyone acknowledges my acting; I can act that way because of my past. August was the one who gave me the name “Mikage Hisoka”.
Everything in my past is connected to the present; I couldn’t cut it off.
I... will carry my past and become “Mikage Hisoka”, instead of throwing it all away.
Izumi...Yeah.
GuyI see.
Hisoka...August.
Thank you, and I’m sorry. I can’t grant your final wish.
I won’t forget you. I can never. After all, you’re my precious... family.
But, just as you told me, I’m going to live a new life... So watch over me.
Homare...I thought of an excellent poem. Is it all right if I present it?
Tasuku...Huh?
GuyTakato stopped you earlier though.
HomareMhm, I hesitated as well. However, I thought it would be a great idea if I showcased the usual Hisoka-kun.
When it comes to the usual Hisoka-kun, the existence of myself, his roommate, is a crucial element. And, when it comes to myself, a countless number of brilliant poems...
Well? I’m not mistaken, am I?
HisokaYeah... But I don’t need a poem.
HomareWhat!?
TsumugiAhaha. This is also an everyday sight.
TasukuHonestly...
Azuma...But still, I’m surprised you lived after falling from this height.
Hisoka...Your brother might be alive too. Just like me.
Azuma——
HisokaHe may be living happily without any memories. You might see him again someday, somewhere.
AzumaMy brother is probably not as strong as you though... But, you’re right. That may be so.
Hisoka...Yeah.
Tsumugi, Tasuku, Alice, Azuma, Guy. And Director.
Thank you for coming with me without asking anything.
TasukuWe’re all used to your selfishness.
HomareIndeed.
GuyAfter living for over 20 years, anyone would have one or two unspeakable things from their past. There’s no need to worry about it.
TsumugiThe only Hisoka-kun we know is the one standing here before us right now. I’m sure that will never change.
So I think you should just stay as yourself.
Hisoka——
Yeah... Thank you.
I may have lost my precious family... but I’m glad I met you all.
AzumaYeah. I feel the same way.
Izumi(The two of them look like they’ve broken through. I’m looking forward to their acting from tomorrow on.)
TasukuShould we get going?
IzumiWe’re already here, so we might as well walk by the beach.
HomareDriving along the coast would be nice as well.
Hisoka...I’m tired after crying... Zzz.
GuyHe’s sleeping here?
TasukuOi, you might fall off again.
HisokaZzz...
TasukuGeez.
???...
Hisoka——

AugustGood morning, December.
Hisoka——August?
AugustHere’s some marshmallows.
Hisoka...*munch*
...
A convenient dream?
AugustMaybe. But wouldn’t you ruin it if you say that?
Hisoka...
AugustHow’s your new life going?
Hisoka...It’s fun. I’m getting along with the Winter Troupe and everyone else in the theater troupe.
AugustI see. Did you make up with April?
HisokaYeah... A lot happened though.
AugustI must’ve worried April——Chikage. Sorry for doing something so selfish and causing you trouble.
But I’m really happy that you two are still together even now, able to spend time and laugh together with your new family.
Hisoka——
I can’t forget my past. I’ll become “Mikage Hisoka” while carrying everything with me.
AugustGeez... It’d be easier if you’d just forget everything. But if that’s what you want, then that’s fine.
But still, I gave you pretty good names, if I do say so myself. “Mikage Hisoka” and “Utsuki Chikage”.
Hisoka...I wonder if we’ll be able to see each other again. All three of us.
AugustWe’ll meet again. Someday.
After all, we make the strongest team, and we’re “family”. Always and forever.
HisokaYeah...
AugustAre you sleepy?
HisokaNo, I’m still, awake... I still, want to talk...
August...Good night, Hisoka.
Hisoka...——
Good night, August.
