[Rei is sitting on the roof with a book. It's sitting to the side with a pencil laid across the open pages. She's busily typing a messages into her device, then taking a few moments to look into the distance and enjoy the sun and the breeze before typing a new message.

She'll be up there all day. It's too crowded inside, but she won't be bothered by company.

I mean, is she ever bothered by anything?]

Okay.

[He sat down near her, leaving her open book in between the two of them.]

Are you all right?

[Once she asked, he relaxed a bit more than he had before.]

I could be better.

[Minato nodded.]

I... think so.

[It had to have been. Right?]

[Rei looks at the scenery, then turns her face to look at him.]

Many are problematic.

I know.

[Minato slightly furrowed his eyebrows, something he did so rarely. It was hardly noticeable.]

But... not all of them are. [Judging from her response.]

[She still notices, but doesn't comment.]

Mine isn't.

Mn. I'm glad.

[He did sincerely mean that. It meant that it was true that not all mirrors were the same.]

What is she like?

[He could picture what the other mirror was like just from her answer.]

It doesn't bother you, does it?

No.

[She indicates the device resting on her book.]

We talked.

[He looked down at the device as he spoke.]

She contacted you?

[If only it had been that easy.]

You are? How, if I may ask?

We have the same understanding.

[Without making a show of it, she closes her book around her pencil, and moves both book and device to her other side.]

You mean the same ideals, views, or memories?

[Or was it... understanding. He tried to understand that himself.]

....Yes. [Her answer is cautious. That's kind of what she means.]

[He nodded. If he did run into her, then perhaps it wouldn't be a terrible thing. He looked down at the now empty space the book had been occupying.]

Mn. That's a relief.

[He looked up at her then back out toward the scenery.]

Someone whom I thought was a friend.

[He nodded once more.]

Yes. I think so. I doubt he would do that.

[He let some silence pass before speaking again, and realized how comfortable it was just to talk to her.]

He took something of mine.
