[And then there was a long silence. As he wondered what Scott might say to Kotone once word gets out, he feared what his leader would think of the aftermath of her death. At the same time, he couldn't get out of this. Not when Scott deserved to know too.]
...We all wanted to see Kotone-san again. Because of our grief, the Abyss of Time was made. All of us didn't want to move forward and continue without her.
[A place being created because of their grief. It's weird to think about, but also, Scott can fully understand that feeling, of at least wanting to see her again. He hasn't lost Kotone yet, but just the thought of it pulls at his heart. Scott's honestly not sure what he'd do if she disappeared, even though he knows that it'll happen at some point. He just doesn't want to think about it.]
I know that I've only known Kotone for 8 months or so, but I'd feel the same way. I'd want to see her again, no matter what.
Then until we find a way to help her, all we can do is to treasure whatever time we have. I know I worry the day she might leave this place and I won't see her again.
I think she feels the same way.
[Because at the end of the day, Ken was powerless to do anything. He didn't know what these people wanted, he didn't know how to fight against Erebus or Nyx. He didn't even know if people stopping people to wish for death would do much of anything.
[So, it's back to square one? Just cherishing every moment that he has with her? Scott can feel some of his hope breaking apart reading Ken's message, but some extremely stubborn part of him refuses to give up. Even if it will take years, even if they're from different realities, he still wants to do something.]
She does, she wants to live each day to the fullest. And I want to spend what time we have with her too.
Then hopefully when we can get out of this place, we can find a way for her to be alive. If she is able to be here, who is to say that she can't somehow?
[But again, this was him being optimistic. He really didn't know what this world wanted from her or anyone really. But if they managed to find a way to bring her back, then it must mean something right?]
I didn't think about it before... but maybe Jerry and the Council would know something that could help her. If they managed to bring her here and everything.
Then all the more reason why we need to talk to them and see what will happen.
Of course, they won't be honest but...
At least it's something. [And yet, he really really wanted to be hopeful but he's also prepared for the worst case scenario. However, he won't say that. Not to Scott anyway]

But I still want to hope for more.

It's a place to start, at least here.
[Since there's not much he can do in her world right now, they'll just have to work with what they have.]
But thank you, Ken, for telling me all this.
