Pain is real. That's the reassurance on your end of the bargain then.
[ In truth, Miach can't be sure that she understands Nana correctly. She's just reframing her in terms that are familiar and rolling with it, because she's never been one for admitting uncertainty. ]
I won't knock on pain as an experience, of course. I think we as a society are too focused on avoiding it and it goes at the cost of really experiencing our true selves. The really painful things that we subject ourselves to solely because we want to... what better reassurance of worth is there? If you're willing to suffer for it, your passion is clear.
[ It's a form of self-delusion, for sure, but it's such a selfish yet masochistic form of it. It's a wonderfully raw experience. ]
You see the world how it really is and you shoulder it on your own. I can't agree with coddling anybody and I think your approach to other people is wrong, but... I like that determination of yours.
[ And since there's no hands on the piano anymore now, that means their fingers are free so Miach can brush her own cold ones against Nana's gently. ]
