"All for naught? What do you mean? What's in th--"
Thanatos acted before Maruki could say anything, grabbing the top of the coffin and twisting it around on the ground with an unsettling scraping of the bottom against the cobbled stone. She jolted at the sudden movement, but settled.
A myriad of expressions crossed her in that moment. It was a body - an old one... "Are there more in--" she asked, though she felt it in her heart - she somehow already knew what the others looked like. Thanatos...?
Despite her focus shifting, Thanatos didn't wane - Hamuko went to the coffin and rested a hand on the side, looking in. That was a person... she should feel sad, right? But there was... a warmth...
"...It's beautiful... I think. There you are... it's proof you lived. No matter what kind of life it was... you aren't alone. We're all bones, inside - we all live, and we all die, and we're together in this... ... ... I wonder if my body was buried? If they had a nice funeral for me... oh, maybe cremated instead. I wouldn't mind that either."
Was it Thanatos that made the thought feel so... warm? Or maybe it's just that she is dead. Normally. Maybe Mitsuru was even keeping her body under watch, waiting to see if it revived like Chidori's did... hopefully that wasn't too difficult on her, if she did.
