[ She cracks another smile. It's small but it's a real one this time and she reaches her hand out to him again. It's not where she intended this conversation to drift. But it means that Ardyn isn't worrying himself ragged over Airlocked! so she can't say she minds. ]
... What do you think we'll all do, when this is over? I've been... thinking about that a lot lately. I mean, we can't just stay here forever, can we? We're going to have to move on eventually but actually doing that is going to be a bit of a mess...
...I'm not entirely sure. [He took Yuuri's hand with his own, the black ring feeling just a little heavy as Ardyn considered the options.] My planet is out of the question; even were I to want to return and in the hypothetical best case scenario, I doubt Noctis would ever allow that.
[which...fair.]
I'm not entirely certain what Junpei's world is like, but offhand that's sounded like the safest choice as far as I've heard.
Mmm. I'd like to be safe. After all this, I mean. But I wonder...
[ She trusts Junpei of course -- if he says his world is safe then she doesn't doubt for a second that it is. But she wonders how it would feel to suddenly be back in a Japan full of living, breathing people. Seeing a city when she's so used to ruins.
Is there a Yuuri Wakasa in his world? Is there a place for this Yuuri Wakasa in Japan of 2028? ]
I mean. It'd be a little hard to just set up a new life in a completely different world. Unless we somehow registered as citizens somewhere we'd be living off the grid for the rest of our lives.
Something like that is far easier to arrange than you think.
[Said the immortal with a legitimate driver's license.]
A little creative misdirection, occasionally a bit of illusion magic, and you have a perfectly functional life without the slightest hint of a concrete background.

It's really that easy... I could even finish school, if I wanted. Maybe not high school, but it'd be nice to be able to go to college...
[ Maybe she'd actually be able to pursue a career she actually wants rather than "whatever's more convenient for my family". Just imagine. ]

[He laughed halfheartedly, squeezing Yuuri's hand lightly.]
If that's what you want, we'll see if we can't figure the logistics out once this is all over.
