introspection

The happiness awaiting us there may not be the kind of happiness we hope for.

Sometimes I want to have a high-level conversation with a high-deviation-score kind of person.

Apparently I don't have the qualities to become the ruler of a harem.

Aside from the fact that I unfortunately developed ALS, I have been fortunate in almost every other respect.

She was lost in thought about the bullying directed at her.

All I can really do is wonder if everyone else feels the same way.

I can't live like that.

It seems the last person I shared my thoughts with thought I was crazy.

"I wonder what's going on inside the cave? I really want to know." "I have no idea."

What satisfies your aesthetic sense?

I cook, but I'm ridiculously bad at it.

Come to think of it, I remember he was a dashing man — I wonder what he's up to.

Life is despair. That's how I see it.

Truth be told, I'd be lying if I said I didn't regret deciding on the spot.

Even though I just had to nod politely, I ended up weirdly stiff and formal.

Hmm. Whether one can actually trust those words, I'm not so sure.

It's painful to go through life with a 'failure' label slapped on yourself.

It's painful to go on living once you've realized that you yourself are a failure.

I'm a wimp who can't bring himself to just ask outright.

Even as I was saying that, I did the exact opposite.

Now that I think of it. Uh oh, Hideki's rubbing off on me.
