Yeah, Akari's having moments of wondering if it's all worth it, though she doesn't say anything. She just trains because she knows she has to. A lot of this is over her head, but she knows she has to keep safe.
(I have realized that I like both Taiga and Heart because they cluelessly mean well.)
(Oh, and my muses are depressing.)

"Takeru," Akari said patiently, though she wanted to rage at him, "I have a job. I need to pay for my apartment, even if I don't need to eat." True, she was dead, and she was going to have to fight these monsters period, but she had her own place, far enough away from the temple to give her some peace. Onari would drive her insane if she had to live with him. Takeru too, probably, no matter how much she liked him.
"Yes, but... you only have 96 days left! You have to find the Eyecons. You have to concentrate on that, not work."
She sometimes wished that he realized that she probably wasn't going to find the Eyecons she needed to come back to life. The only reason she was training with Takeru was because she needed to know how to fight and because she wanted his memories of her to be good.
Akari suddenly wondered if moving in wasn't a bad idea, after all. Yes, she'd have both Takeru and Onari on her case about finding Eyecons, but boxing everything up and giving up her apartment would make things easier when the time came.
Giving a sigh, she looked at Takeru. "You're right. I'm just still not used to this."
The smile was almost worth it. "We'll do everything to support you. You can train every day and we'll all search for the spirits needed for the Eyecons."
She wouldn't refuse to seal the spirits into Eyecons, she knew. Even if she didn't think she'd complete her task in time, seeing what had happened with some ordinary objects had convinced her that letting evil monsters use heroes as monsters wasn't a good thing.
Maybe she'd start on a paper while she was at it. After all, she wouldn't be alive to live as a laughingstock. If she could prove that ghosts existed, if someone could replicate it, then this whole thing might be worth it.
