Not entirely... perhaps, he was forced to choose between being transferred to another program altogether, and being moved to a different unit. Is that what you are thinking?

...I think that was the gist. It's just upsetting.

[ Laying against Fox. ]

I know he's not gone...but it's not the same.

... I know. I felt the same way when Maki left.

I wanted to ask how you dealt with it.

Re: night 197

It was difficult to comprehend at first. We spoke about it at length, and I could not deny how poorly Taisho had treated her, how we had done so little to accommodate her while expecting her to accept all of our idiosyncrasies. Of course, it did hurt... and I felt like I had no one else to blame but myself for a while.

And so I decided that I needed to do better--for Taisho, for myself, and for my teammates. In a way, her leaving was like a wake-up call we all sorely needed. While we still struggle and fight sometimes, Taisho feels more close-knit now than we did before. To understand one another, to compromise and have faith in each other... we all try to do that as much as we can, I think.

...maybe once I get my wits about me, I should talk to him again. I know he must be feeling very strange about it all still. I just don't want him to feel like he's going to be forgotten.

I cannot speak for Eclipse, but I think it would be appreciated.
