[ His eyebrows knit downward a moment, and he frowns, wondering what must be happening. Is she misremembering things? Has the stress of being taken to a strange place caused her to revert to her old memories? He has the utmost faith in his own memories, in how hard-fought their victory had been.

He does remember what she says, of course. When he won that doll, his gut instinct had been to give it to Mion, who was the only person not to receive anything, but he was worried what she might think if he gave her such a feminine gift like that. So, that voice in his head had reasoned, why not give it to Rena, who would definitely appreciate it more?

But that's not what he did in this world. He thinks it might not even be what he did in the world before that. ]

Hmm... I see.

[ He swirls his cup of coffee around in one hand, rubbing the back of his head with the other. ]

That makes sense... if you don't remember us switching games at the tournament, then I guess you wouldn't remember me giving that doll to Mion after the tournament was over, either.

[ He feels like that's an important distinction to make. If she doesn't remember these things happening, not even once, then... maybe she doesn't even remember getting through June together. ]
