Why do you put up a front? Why do you pretend that you don't really care? I wonder if you feel obligated to.
It's like your shield. You really think you need another weapon, huh? A barrier on your own feelings. A covering that shuts out all around you.
Who would have thought? The brave warrior, struggling in the fight against his own heart.
Maybe that's just how you work. Is that how everyone acts where you came from? I've heard a little bit about your world; our worlds are practically one and the same, after all. I know that there's a lot more to being… well, you, than you let on.
There's a boy who idolizes you like his own father. There's a young lady who looks to you for support. There's a man who just enjoys teasing you. And don't forget about me!! As much as you probably hate to admit it, we really are like a family. And face it – you're used to us by now. You know you love us!
We're always telling her that she only needs to keep smiling to make him believe that his struggles are worthwhile. You should heed the same advice.
It was – as we all know too well – inevitable that we come together. Sure, everyone loves the brave, silent, stoic type. But there's much more to you than meets the eye. We wanna know all about you! So come on, silly! Just give us a smile.
Let us know you care.
Why do you retort every time we give you a nickname? How come you yell at us when we're just having fun? We just wanna spend time with you and get to know the brave, strong, real person who's inside that big mean shell!
I don't know. Maybe I'm taking it too far. But you can't blame me for trying.
We're all on this journey together, and it wouldn't kill you to open up to us a little bit more. I know that's not exactly your forte, but at least try!
It doesn't hurt.
If even for a moment.
Tear down that front.
And let us see the real you.
That was about Kuro-puu as you probably guessed. He's such a meanie sometimes! He's always grabbing Mokona's ears and everything. Mokona's too cute to hurt, right? Fine, let him find the feathers himself! Tee-hee~!
