Maybe... do you want to put something up for her at the Ted Kord Memorial Centre?
[ It seems the most obvious choice, but perhaps at this point a bit of a cliche considering how many other imPorts use it? Although that is the intended purpose, maybe Futaba wants to deviate from the norm. ]
It might help to have a place to visit...like the Memorial Centre.
But I want to do something special for her too. Sojiro and I...I guess we just did things to remember her. For awhile we spent the day trying to perfect her curry recipe. Or he'd take me to a restaurant Mom and I liked.
[Maybe part of the problem was her missing those aspects of home too. She couldn't just ask someone to replace Sojiro--no one really could.
If you are comfortable with him coming. I know with Goro-kun it's been...
[ Well, he had orphaned both her and Futaba. That kind of pain doesn't easily go away and one doesn't forgive as easily, even if she considers him a friend now and genuinely cares for him.
She can't blame Futaba for feeling strangely about it herself. ]
It's up to you. She was your mother, after all. But... you have new family now, so perhaps it isn't such a terrible idea to try and build on that relationship a little?

But a place of your own to visit her... it may not be such a bad idea. Of course it doesn't have to be the only thing.
Hmm... did she have any hobbies? Or things she liked?

Maybe we could take one...after we set up something at the memorial. Do you think...would it be okay to ask Goro to go?
