the ghosts being brought in / exacerbated by kagari was just the text, no? The ending... that was pretty unnerving. I like the subtext that's been read into it here, though. trying to read it from a queer lens in this case is interesting because ageha is clearly not interested in kagari as anything more than a friend. a deeply useful one, at that.
I like me a transactional relationship. especially one where everyone gets hurt. If reading this story through a queer lens, with kagari as the "Invisible girl" then ageha's line "Thinking of her as something human was wrong the whole time" becomes a lot bleaker, don't you think?
