Akiko Yajima: Riku Miyagusuku

Quotes 

• Riku Miyagusuku : Oh, you've been to Paris before, Hagi?

  Hagi : A long time ago.

  Riku Miyagusuku : Hey, where are we going?

  Hagi : To my favorite place.

  Riku Miyagusuku : A place you like?

• Riku Miyagusuku : Hey Saya, don't ever start hating Kai.

  Saya Otonashi : I could never hate him.

  Riku Miyagusuku : Then I have another favor to ask.

  Saya Otonashi : What is it?

  Riku Miyagusuku : Don't ever start hating yourself. Please?

  Saya Otonashi : I couldn't.

  [she begins to cry and run away. Hagi catches her and holds her close. A few minutes pass] 

  Saya Otonashi : I'm fine now.

  [moves away] 

  Riku Miyagusuku : Want to use my handkerchief?

  Saya Otonashi : Thank you. Sorry...

  Riku Miyagusuku : Not at all. It's fine. Hey, Hagi's smiling!

  [Hagi quickly walks on] 

• [to Saya] 

  Hagi : While you were sleeping, I walked these streets often. What I enjoyed was the city at night. When people were fast asleep I could walk along the streets all night, without sleep, all alone.

  Riku Miyagusuku : You weren't scared?

  Hagi : No. It was a satisfying experience. The feeling of the cobblestones under my feet, the scent of damp air, the noise of distant car horns, the cries of animals, those various sounds... Even when I could not see you there, could not hear you there, mysteriously, I could still feel you, Saya. And then I found the answer. Just as I needed to be in this place at that time, you need something as well, Saya. However, you must find it for yourself. Nevertheless, your Chevaliers will always be with you. Never forget that.

  [to Riku] 

  Saya Otonashi : I'll wash the handkerchief and give it back to you.

  [pause] 

  Saya Otonashi : Sorry, but could you leave me alone?

  [she leaves] 

  Hagi : The answer is that we are not the ones who will show her the way.
