My family is alive. I just saw them yesterday, you know?
He's bright, friendly, and always talking about the family he loves so much.
"I got into another fight with my brother yesterday!" "My mom said you should come over for dinner too!" The daily life of the family he describes is so happy, and so vivid.
Komasuke doesn't know that. ...No, he refuses to believe it.
"Come over to my place next time! Everyone's dying to meet you."

Apparently, the whole family sat around the dinner table yesterday. Apparently, the family is waiting for him at home today. Apparently, he's going to pick up his sister tomorrow.
────But.
Parents and siblings, 7 dead in total.
The only survivor was the eldest son, Komasuke Tokiwa.
Even so, Komasuke smiles.
"What are you talking about? Everyone's alive." He doesn't look like he's lying.

For someone as friendly as Komasuke, he doesn't have a single friend.
"I used to have them, you know?" "But everyone turns weird halfway through once we get close." "Talking about my family being dead, or some fire..."

"Hey, come over to my place today! My mom made way too much food." "I mean, how do you mess up the portions for an eight-person family?!" He laughs heartily as he falls into step beside Guest. "Oh, Suzume wanted to see you. Tsuruha's coming home early today too, and Ryosuke's gonna be there!" Then, he continues as if it's the most natural thing in the world.
