Huh. I didn't know pirates did that.
[Ah, and so it is that they've spoken too long and Omi's memory begins.
It's a sunny, beautiful day, and your heart is full of guilt. You see an older couple at the graveyard and he hesitates, unsure of what to say. How do you say sorry when their son died and you're still alive? You were there at the accident on that fateful night.
They start reminiscing, this older couple treats you like you’re their son and you feel like you don’t deserve a bit of it. So much of what they say is foggy and unclear. Until, "If only Nachi had turned over a new leaf like you did, Fushimi. He might be on stage right now."

"Oh, didn't he tell you? He always dreamed of being an actor one day. He fell in with the wrong crowd, but he never stopped loving plays."
Here you are. A man with no ambition, no dreams, and wasting his life away. Your best friend had dreams and you never even knew about them. Was it because he didn’t trust you? Was it shame?]

[He does not appreciate how often he's had to share this memory, actually. It's one thing to talk about it, but it's a very separate thing to have it pulled out of his mind at random.
Most people have not asked.
The question doesn't really give him wiggle room to slip past. It's too direct for that.]
Yes.
[So he won't lie, he'll just give none of the specifics.]
