"I would say nothing that is not how I truly felt," Dimitri insists. "Even when I was... not at my best, you always patiently listened and discussed things with me. And when I was uncertain about music... Yours opened up a great deal."

A lot of things have contributed to Dimitri recovering from the life he once lived, only some eight or nine months ago. If he did not hear zuke's music, he would likely still be at the same place, relatively speaking.

But... it is hard to think of a life like that. One without that feeling which had rushed through him at Zuke's music.

Dimitri ducks his head, scratching behind the ears of their furry companion some more. "...Then, I will continue to try and live up to such an impression. Thank you, Zuke."
