[adsum]

[ secrets!!!

Innocent, yeah, like he lets himself be pushed against the door but he's the one holding her hands so he can loop them behind Rika's back and embrace her from behind. ]

It should be, but I can't rely on them. I'm going to make it on my own, without their help. Once I do that, I'm coming back for my brother and sister too.

[adsum]

[ That's not understanding at all... ]

Every person is uniquely different, Komaeda. So are you.

[commences]

( starting to think rokkun cant function properly around komaeda without having to do something for him.

and yes, that's a stupid idea, but komaeda's dying so??? )

What are you d — ( i'm crying, how tall is rokkun? really going to let komaeda's 5'11" ass sit in his lap, okay. i guess. he wins. )

I have a lot of them... ( he's going to lay his back against him, might as well make use. ) It depends on which one. ( ... ) What's out in the woods?

[contrarily]

( no fair!! )

... ( she pauses, at that, comfortable in his arms, but... ) Rocchi... what are your siblings' names?

[commences]

I'm not a person.

( no one are people, they're either hope, or they're stepping stones. )

...Pick out the differences among five students, I want to see what you see, open my eyes to it.

( there he goes to crouch on the floor looking for something. what? nothing, just to see what's under the desk you know... normal things. )

[adsum]

[ starting to think komaeda can't function properly

and idk he's like 5'9"? don't make me think about heights, I thought Minato's 5'7" was tall but he's like the shortest out of everybody ]

The one you were talking about two seconds ago...

[ Komaeda has dementia and Rokkun gets memory problems around him especially when it's hot as hell and he's wrapping his arms around Komaeda so he can't escape and crawl back into the sun, so he forgives having to remind him. ]

We weren't talking about the woods.

[adsum]

[ Oh I forgot to respond to the desk question, no Komaeda can't open it, it's like the door that won't open unless the counselor invites the person in or the chair that won't move until he moves his feet. Underneath the desk... is maybe a stray sunflower seed shell, a bent staple, blood stains around the bottom of one of the desk legs that wasn't scrubbed out properly... normal things. ]

Give me five students, tell me what you see first, and I'll indulge you as best I can without breaking confidentiality.

[adsum]

[ ... ]

Why, you want to meet my family?

[commences]

( and he can't? don't judge him for his problem...

...noooo 5'7" is like average, isn't it? and 5'5" is people who are short and can't reach the cabinets without a stepstool. so the moral of minato's story is that he hangs out with giants. )

What if the woods were off limits to all students, wouldn't that be interesting...

( they weren't talking about the woods, but that doesn't stop komaeda from talking about them anyway. the way his memory comes and goes, how he can keep his interest for so long until moving on, everything in the past will be forgotten. also, he's also going to look at rokkun's hands around him, use one of his own to try and peel his fingers off. )

Would you consider it six seconds ago now?

[elevelvetor]

Thank you very much, ma'am. I shall remember yours for next year and bring you a lovely gift then.

( c: if she survives. she who? yes. )

[adsum]

...I wouldn't be able to get home, if that were the case.

[ He lets Komaeda peel his hand off, but all he does is shift it several inches lower and place it back on Komaeda's stomach. ]

What sin would you commit in the woods?

[contrarily]

'course I do. If Rocchi has siblings, they must be as cute as him, right?

( SMILE )

[adsum]

[ hm ]

...yeah, they're super cute. One day, I'll take you home so you can meet them.

[commences]

Why don't you just stay with me? ( he taps his chin in thought like he's thinking about it. ) That way you can help all the Ultimates, too.

( like amami, or ishimaru, you know... all of them. )

A despairing murder, but I would never do something so tasteless... ( his little swirly eyes ) Hope is meant to be pure, help others to achieve the absolute good. ( and then he blinks, back to normal. ) ...No sin will be committed there, do you have one?

[contrarily]

... liar.

( she looks away, lips pursed in a thin line. lying about taking her home aside... because that's not what concerns her right now, she tugs at her wrists, to see if he'll let go. )

I know you don't remember them.

[crystallomancy]

...You aren't good with social sciences anyWAY, so I suppose you wouldn't be very good at it regardLESS.

( :/ )

But back to the objective TRUTH. Do you believe me if I tell you I was poSSESSED for three of those murDERS, or do you think that was just what I think haPPENED?

[adsum]

[ He doesn't let go, not because he's holding onto her anymore but more because his fingers have bunched the back of her dress, just holding onto something even if it can't be her. ]

...I know that they're cute.

[ Even if he doesn't remember them. He doesn't need to, for it to be the objective truth. ]

[adsum]

[ Temping as the offer is... ]

Uh. Yeah, plenty. Terrible sins.

[ He places the back of his hand on Komaeda's forehead, like he's testing for heatstroke. They've been outside like two minutes. ]

[adsum]

If that is your belief, I believe you.

[ ? there is no difference ]

[contrarily]

( ...

she lets him hold onto her, sighing as she leans her cheek against his chest. )

Rocchi... what did you get, for the memories?

[adsum]

...Nothing.

[ She can hear his heart thud in his chest, quick and painful. ]

I didn't get anything.

[contrarily]

... huh?

( she looks up, actually pretty confused. is he lying? he probably is. )

The counselor... he trades people things for memories, right? So... why... ?

[commences]

( he has low vitals... sadly, he's not as cold as he should be, but sweating due to the heat. as if to prove that he's fine, he's going to push rokkun's hand away, albeit slow. yeah heat's no good for him... he feels like he's going to die... )

You're lying, aren't you... unless you already have sinful things in mind, tell me them, and I'll try to remember the other...

[adsum]

Does he?

[ Rokkun looks up too, looking similarly confused. ]

He can't help me, so I don't talk to him.

nene like 'enough planning for right now, cuddles'

[mermaidcursed]

Okay.

( and after a moment, nene just leans against him once more- a comfort for both of them, a reassurance... calm before the storm. despite everything, she can always find something comforting in his presence. )
