kkoma

Summary:

A kkoma wonders about its purpose in life, 21,763 years later. There is no conclusion.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

I was made knowing my purpose. That doesn’t make it easier.

He doesn’t say much, nowadays. The most he does is poke at a screen, losing fingers.

I wonder if he regrets it.

His face gets more indistinct with the trickling centuries. Sometimes I want to speak, but I don’t think that he’ll listen.

I’ve forgotten whether I was made for him to remember, or forget, that single line.

「And I was quietly staring at that scene.」

「And I felt a little sad. I wanted them to look back for me.」

Notes:
