Atsuko:" I've waited over three MILLENIUMS for you, three thousand years of a torturous existence, Akane! I couldn't die, everyone around me eventually turned into dirt we're standing on right now. But not once did I give up hope of finding you. I know you aren't the Goddess anymore, but she lives on in you. Do you really think I wouldn't make the mistake of blurring the two of you together?"
Akane: "I smile because that's what makes others happy! I give and give and give, and I never expect anything in return, because what matters to me is that the people around me are enjoying life. And I forgive… because I don't want to be left alone."
Chise: "I don't like to speak. It's not completely neccesary in day-to-day life, but it's also because I'm afraid of the backlash I'll face when I say something that may be interpreted offensively. Back when I lived with my parents, it happened all the time. I had bruises for even the most minor offenses. Am I really that worthless?"
Rin: "I sympathize with you. I always have thing feeling of frustration that lingers over me, like a stormy cloud. I smile and nod, all while mentally giving the morons a good punch to the jawline. I'm afraid to take action because I know that if I actually get violent, I won't be able to stop myself.
Umiko: "Just shut up! Do us a favor and just go sit in the corner where you can't bother us! Do you even know how lucky you are? You have a loving family who will care for you no matter what, while some of us have bonds that are just barely being held together. Who cares if your daddy never came back, get a grip and move on!"
