[ Midnight gestures to Keita's book, but after chasing his mouth down for another last kiss, he smiles. ]
It's not just an idea, though. How do I put this...? Do you ever have dreams that feel as though they've lasted months, years? When you wake up, they feel strange and distant, but if one closes their eyes and lets the memories flow back... Well, sometimes the images flow back so vividly, it's as though they actually happened, even if the details never come to mind.
[ Midnight holds Keita to his front, swaying from side to side. ]
I know you were reading to me. I enjoyed it... I didn't have much presence of mind to understand the passage of time, but perhaps that's a blessing. The moments without you feel intangible, nondescript, utterly without note. The only moments I remember are those with you in my lap.
[ Midnight laughs, rests his head on top of Keita's. ]
I remember that your voice was very warm. I remember that I wanted you to have some water and a little rest every now and then, but not so much that you forgot to visit. It's selfish, perhaps, but there it is.
