[ the ending of swan lake asks a very interesting question that shouxue doesn't want to think too deeply about. they are dead, but they are together. they could be alive but apart.
[this is his cue to explain to her that eunyoo is alright, in the only way she can be, but what she says next gives him pause. it makes him rearrange the thoughts in his head a little, then]
She injured her ankle. The doctor told her she should give up on her dream, or she'd hurt herself more.
[he doesn't think it's the same as Shouxue's 'shouldn't', but he offers it anyway.]
[ this is something she can't fully comprehend. she never had siblings, and these kind of familial relationships aren't something she's used to, but she can understand how much eunhyuk tried and how much he loves his sister.
even if he finally lashed out. the slap looked painful on both fronts. it's hard for her to know what to say. she thinks they're both wrong and stupid, but that doesn't make all that pent up emotion any less painful. ]
... It looks as if you both need to talk to each other.
[ she has no right to tell this to someone, but it's clear that they both haven't processed their grief. ]

Did she listen?

...She still kept practicing. I think she would have kept at it if people didn't turn into monsters.
But she said she wanted to try. So I wanted to learn how to help her.

Even at the cost of her own health and body?

But it's been a long time since I've been able to talk to her.
[and at that, a memory plays, as if summoned.]
