[ Without his memories of his time in the Netherworld, Kaito has no reason to take anything that she says as fact. Especially when she has done everything she can to keep herself from filling in the blanks for him. As he points to her before drawing that hypothetical line back to him, Hibiki nods silently before focusing her gaze toward her unknowing partner.
Normally Hibiki would doubt herself in situations like this, worrying that she's said too much. She still does to some degree. But he's never let her fall; he's always trusted her in spite of everything they've been through. And for once, she has faith that he'll do the same, memories or not.
Squeezing his hand in response, she quietly exhales before mustering the best smile she can. ]
I wish I knew. I'd do everything I could to help you clear that fog if I did. It might not have anything to do with that connection between us. [ Just say 'Soulmates,' Hibiki. Dodging around it feels awkward. ]
Honestly, I assumed it had been severed after leaving that place, since I haven't heard you or my Shadow's voice in my head since I got here.
[ ...But then what was that text box she saw that day when they reunited? She hadn't tried to reach out to Kaito when that happened and hadn't given it much thought after the fact. That was just a glitch, right..? ]
