Persona 4 Golden (Extended)

[f 0 5][f 2 1]> Samegawa riverbank...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]> Kou wanted to be by the river, so you[n]stopped by on the way home...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]This place brings back a lot of[n]memories...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]The first time I came here was also my[n]first time in town, right after the[n]Ichijo family took me in.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]The sky was totally clear except for the[n]setting sun, and the light hitting the[n]water made it shine.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]It was beautiful. It helped me decide[n]something...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]I thought, "From now on, I am an[n]Ichijo."[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]I convinced myself that the old me was[n]dead. At least, that's what I thought.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]But you were just a kid then, right?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]Yeah. Isn't that crazy? A little kid[n]thinking like that?[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]But I guess even kids have stuff on[n]their minds sometimes.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Funny thing is, I never really became an[n]Ichijo.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]I looked, sounded, and acted like one,[n]but it was just a mask I wore.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]And now that I don't have to wear that[n]mask anymore... I guess it's time to[n]step off the stage.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1]"You're going to leave?" [f 0 5][f 2 1]"What do you mean?" [f 0 5][f 2 1]"Don't jump to conclusions."

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]I don't know...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]It's not entirely my decision to make,[n]not after they've raised me this[n]whole time...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 7][f 1 5] [n]> Kou stares off into the distance...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]...I don't know what I mean, either.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]I don't have a clue what to do with[n]myself...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 7][f 1 5] [n]> Kou stares off into the distance... [n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Well, I haven't reached any conclusions yet.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]Besides, I'd never just wander off[n]without telling you guys.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 7][f 1 5] [n][f 5 13]> Kou smiles gently...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]It just makes me feel kinda empty,[n]knowing that my real parents are dead.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]It's like... I have no roots.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]......[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]We should go visit their graves after[n]practice sometime.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]I wouldn't even know where to find 'em.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]I've got the letter, but whoever wrote[n]it didn't sign it. They didn't mention[n]my parents's names, either.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Whoever handed you over to the orphanage[n]wrote that letter, right?[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]Wouldn't that mean they've been holding[n]onto it for like... ten years?[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]It's pretty rough asking someone to[n]remember what happened ten years ago...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Ten years ago...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]You're still carrying that thing...?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Yeah, well, I can't let anyone at the[n]house see it, so...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]Huh?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Hmm, the name on the front, "Kou-sama,"[n]is smeared. Like someone rubbed their[n]hand against it...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Maybe they just wrote it in a hurry?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Plus... the corner of the envelope is[n]sharp enough to give you a papercut.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]...What do you think?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1]"It was stored well?" [f 0 5][f 2 1]"The letter was swapped?" [f 0 5][f 2 1]"It was written recently?"

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]No, ten-year-old letters don't look this[n]nice, even if they are well-preserved...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]Meaning... This must have been written[n]pretty recently...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 7][f 1 5] [n]> Kou looks serious...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]But the envelope and the stationery have[n]the same insignia.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]Meaning... This must have been written[n]pretty recently...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 7][f 1 5] [n]> Kou looks serious...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]You think so too?[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 7][f 1 5] [n][f 5 13]> Kou nods seriously...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]What does this mean...?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]I think... the head of the orphanage[n]must have written it.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]When I visited... She could probably[n]tell I was depressed...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]H-Hey, cheer up, man. Even if it is a[n]fake-- Uhh, it sounds bad to call it[n]a fake, but...![n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]She didn't do it to pull a fast one[n]on you...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]No, you've got it all wrong... [n]I'm happy.[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]I'm glad there are such nice people out[n]there in the world...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Maybe the letter is true, or maybe it's[n]just a nice lie, but all the same...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]Someone was there to give birth to me...[n]Someone was there to raise me...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]And someone is there to watch over me[n]like this...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]......[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]I thought I had no roots... No ties[n]to anybody...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]But... That's not true.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Took you long enough to get the picture,[n]stupid.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Stupid? I know you are, but what am I?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]I'm the one who told you that you'd[n]always have us... Stupid.[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]W-Well... I'm rubber, you're glue![n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1]> Kou's eyes are red, but he's[n]laughing...[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]> It seems you were able to support[n]Kou when he needed you most...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]...Man, you've got a really ugly mug,[n]you know that?[n][f 1 1] [f 0 5][f 2 1]Wanna go for a swim, ugly? It'll be[n]like old times...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Ha, yeah... Come to think of it, we used[n]to play around here, didn't we?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6][f 3 1]How 'bout you? Wanna go for a dip?[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1]"No way." [f 0 5][f 2 1]"I better get home."

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]What!? Like you have a choice![n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1][f 4 6]Whoa, it's freakin' cold![n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1]> You horsed around in the river with[n]Kou and Daisuke and then went home...[n][f 1 1]

[f 0 5][f 2 1]> Fog has enveloped the area...[n][f 1 1]
