Summary
It was something Shoko never understood— she doesn’t think she understands it even now, this need to prove their strength and power. Countless nights she has stayed up taking sips of whatever liquor she has been able to get her hands on, gulps that burn down her throat and make her gasp, drink after drink while a few months of her youth play inside her mind like an old movie. Sometimes she watches it through rose-tinted glasses and she allows herself to feel the sweet melancholy of a time when things seemed simpler. Other times the footage in her mind’s eye is dark and stained with regret, narrated by a resentful voice that sounds suspiciously sweet, suspiciously raspy, achingly familiar, gone:
You could have done this. You could have noticed that. You could have done more. Why didn’t you? Shoko, why didn’t you?

The tone of this writing is immaculate! It captures Shoko perfectly; meticulously observant eyes, lips pressed tight, blood seeping from a clenched fist, and an aching heart that kept beating in a body gone cold. I’ve always been fascinated by her relationship with the two and this is as close as it can get to Gege actually writing it. My beautiful trio. If Suguru is the tragedy of fate, and Satoru is the martyr for the gods, then Shoko is the loss for the humans left behind.
