...that's because you're an empathetic person. Looking at terrible things like that and being okay with it isn't in your nature, and that's... a very good thing. The world needs people like you in it. I've always thought that.

I don't know how to make it stop hurting when you look at your guitar. Pain isn't something that anyone can just say "I've had enough of this now" about and turn it off... but... it's very sad to know that something that brought you and the others who listened to your music so much joy is causing you pain now.
[ honestly if he could turn it off by his own choice, kazuki would deeply consider it. he probably wouldn't, in the end, but it would be nice to have the option. ]
...I know I can't leave it forever. I won't. I still don't want to give up on my dream. Maybe now, more than ever, I should be trying even harder to make sure I don't need to give up anyone I care about for it. I just... don't know how to get there yet.
...you're still in the middle of your journey. But although it may hurt right now, and although it may feel like you're walking down a long and unknowable road, it isn't a road that you're walking alone. We'll be here to help you figure it out as you go.
Just take it one day at a time. And... be kind to yourself.
