[ It's funny. Yasu makes it sound like such a horrible thing but Ai can't help but think that it'd be a weight off her shoulders. The uncertainty is always the thing that's frightened her the most, never knowing exactly what performance to put on to make sure that everything turns out alright in the end. She's a born liar, after all, so having a stage of set directions to follow and making the leap to being an actress would be simple enough. Even if it was still a bad ending, even if she still had no other role but as a tragic heroine, having a script to follow and knowing how it would all turn out...

Maybe it would be easier. Maybe that way she could make her peace with it.

She lets out a breath. ]

When you put it like that, playing around in someone else's game doesn't sound like such a bad idea. Maybe I'll give being a Witch a shot if we ever get out of here. It can't be any harder than being an idol, right?
