Sei hasn't left the bridge for their entire flight.
It hadn't been purposeful. At some point, she had meant to leave and start doing other things with her time, but her feet simply never moved.
She kept staring at their current flight pattern on the monitor and watching this tiny blue dot get closer and closer to her place of birth.
Memories of how she left and why had come back to haunt her.
There wasn't enough time in the day for Sei to sit and write down all of the feelings that she had about her parents.
But regardless, she was still a daughter. It was hard for her to shake that feeling of familial piety, regardless of what had been said and done.
It was why she had asked that they go to Japan first... She needed to see that her parents were alive. She wouldn't be able to rest properly until she knew.
"Still standing here..? I'm surprised you didn't speed us up instead of waiting..."
