There are, of course, timelines in which she and Junpei have relatively normal existences. Sometimes they get married and sometimes they don’t. They’ll have children and grow old together in pleasant houses with gardens. In those lifetimes, he never stops looking at her like the stars shine in her eyes. He’s never given the reasons not to. These happy endings are few and far between. Too many events have to fall in exactly the right place for them to occur. Still, Akane enjoys them just the same as she enjoys her other realities. Given her special abilities, there’s not many opportunities for her to be selfish and indulge in the happiness she experiences with Junpei, content that the world will not collapse in on itself without her intervention. She’ll take what she can get.
