[He's going to drop this other thread of conversation for the time being, since it's what Kotone says about her sister which is really troubling. It's true that Mio barely spoke about her, that they seemed to operate on different wavelengths and that she didn't seem to be talking to her much about Retrospec things... but they were sisters. Twins, even. Yes, Xiaolang was a bit disconnected from his own sisters, too, but that was due to their gap in age and genders. From what he could tell, his siblings were always close, even when they were bickering, so to think these two could have such a big rift...]

... that isn't true. Not in the slightest.

I don't know what happened between you two to make things this way, and maybe I don't have any right to speak about a situation I know nothing about. But you two are family, and with everything we're going through with Retrospec, I don't think you should have this between you. I may have a more biased opinion, since I'm more familiar with your sister, but she's not the person you're saying she is. She's not perfect, or even the kindest person I know, but... she is a decent person. She has a lot more going on thanks to all of this than you think.

I'n sure she'd appreciate another person to open up to, even if she doesn't act that way.

[Oh Xiaolang, if you actually knew why she wasn't talking to Kotone about this.......]
