Hehe~ Isn't it?

[ He wraps his arms around her to steady her, standing behind her and reaching for her hand so he can lift it up, cold hands curling her fingers to trace a long path out across the sky. ]

There... this is Hydra, the longest constellation. [ He leans in closer, cheek pressed against hers so that their point of views are aligned, guiding her hand to the left and circling around start to finish from one of the brightest stars in the sky. ] And that's Regulus— it's a system of four stars so close together they appear as one. And if you look over here... [ shifts her hand down and to the left ] That's Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system.

[ They're all here, the sky that he knows and holds so close ]

[ Why would he have a favorite. He does, though ]

My favorite... would probably be this one.

[ He points at one of the marks which could reasonably be one of any 2348905943 marks ]

It was my very first one— I guess you could call it the "gateway"... I've gone over it too many times, though, so that's not even the original scar.

( nene lets hanako guide her hand like his little pointer tool, leaning against him slightly even with the fact that he's cheek to cheek close. even if her face is slowly flushing, she looks where he points with wife eyes and rapturous attention. )

Oh, wow... I've never seen the sky like this, not really...

( the painted world's sky was gorgeous, of course. but it was an ideal, a painting. she hasn't yet let go of the idea that this could be real. )

[ Rokkun, constantly: remember it yourself
Maybe it's him being bitter about how unfair it all is, the fact that he will forever be plagued by memories while Komaeda loses just as much as he makes, but it's hard to reminisce when he's reminded of all that can never be. ]

Yeah... Like back in the day when we used to work together. [ his partner in crime... ] I'm late now.

Ehh... Can you give a name? Let me guess, that guy is part of that cult that's been seeking for blood lately. And I mean literally.

[ man, talking about being shit out of their luck. no wonder nao wanted to end it all. hmm, wonder if giving the tail a couple of tugs would activate anything... ]

It's still a bad thing, though? You'd be a second-year by now until you were held back by whoever did that to you. That's another year in this hellhole.

[ The horse's mouth opens when he tugs at its tail; there's nothing inside. ]

I don't know his name. And I guess he's... part of that club... [ What was she doing getting involved with the cultists? don't look at her. she doesn't look at him. ]

I don't want to be a second year. I don't want to be a third yeah— never mind being here another year, but third year is the end of the line. Third years don't come back, not for seven years, not for a hundred.

[ He's a mess of contradictions, wanting the counselor to stop but also not, telling him to move his hand but at the same time holding it there; he looks sick, and the counselor removing his hand won't help matters any.

With a small sigh, he slowly slides his hand out, but not before guiding Hyde's own hand over to the wound and replacing his with Hyde's. ]

Your death and your life are in your hands, Hyde. Never let anybody take that from you.

( well, if clamor is on ladder duty, then nene will happily help the little girl do what needs doing. at the ghost girl's call, she'll place books as needed! but, huh. this sure is Weird! )

[ He glances down at her left wrist, then looks back up at her. ]

Of course not.

[ He steps back from the doorway, into his office since it doesn't look like they're here to join him for snack time. ]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Stephanie. I hope you will never need my services, but I am here for you when you do.

Is that so... ( lore, lore, loooore, or maybe cute rokkun naming, either way, komaeda's going to trade his finger over whichever the other is indicating. he's probably touching the wrong one, but... )

...And when I thought I was your favorite.

( he withdraws his hands, wiping the blood on his pants leg to clean it off, before touching again. he just didn't want to get it infected. ) Did we at least get our "gateway" together? ( almost said gayway, help. )

[ Time goes by so much quicker when there are more people helping, and little by litter the girl starts to smile. The encyclopedia she has Nene set on the librarian's desk, but the rest of the library gets cleaned up in record time, books in their proper place and the return cart emptied.

When they're all finished, she goes to the desk and slides the book off its surface, thick and heavy enough that she has to wrap both arms around it and lug it underneath the desk, curling up in one corner with the book opened in front of her. The words on the pages are too long and complicated for her but that's okay; she flips through the book backwards, just wanting to see the pictures. ]

[ Is she not the most reasonable person in this school? You can trust her.

Silence is something she's used to, but that doesn't mean she takes comfort in it, glancing over at Natsume every time he pipes up and then stops again, like he's trying to broach a topic when he knows she would much rather him just come out and say it. He isn't here to tease her about valentines, or to sympathize with her brother—-

and there's the heart of it.

Is this courtesy? Or is she to offer her opinion in exchange for that information; it seems fair, although she can't imagine it being an equal trade. ]

...I know. I haven't talked with her yet, though. I wouldn't know where to begin... The girl is avoiding us.

[ can he like, stick his finger inside the mouth if there's a button or something. because he's gonna do that. and give nao a raise of his brow while he's at it. ]

Isn't that a good thing? Once you graduate, you're gone here for good. Don't we all want to get out of here ASAP?

[one day those almonds are gonna be revealed to be made of people, bet.

she notices the glance, visibly brightens, and then lifts her arm to let the sleeve fall down, showing the tally, even pointing at it vaguely proudly.]

See! That's the proof. I only have the one. There's only one explanation for it! [and she's. fine. with that. compared to the alternative.]

[ He can, fingering the hollow and bringing his finger back sticky but dry. ]

There's no guarantee you'll graduate... or that graduation means going back. Just... moving on.

[ Imagine I know anything about videogames that aren't rpgs, Akira can be excited in my stead. ]

I do! I can bring the disk to school and we can play!

[ Not multiplayer unfortunately, but he can always use a commander in chief. The game club, though... ugh he wants to join the game club, squirrel himself away in a corner and play. ]

( how you gunna tell a man with dementia that? insane!!! he can remember these memories now, well, for the moment until he starts to forget this moment too. )

Why do you say it like that? ( used, that's not the proper term. ) I'm working with you, I give my everything as long as it's to see your hope...

( he'll slide off rokkun, settling to the side of him with a sigh, and softly he speaks to himself hoping that the other doesn't hear. ) I want to see how far your roots sink into the earth, and how the world handles your hope... will you destroy yourself, or grow with it? ...It'll accept you better than me.

( he pauses, lifting a hand to run his hand through his own hair before speaking aloud. )

There's nothing stopping us from working together now, remember that.

[ Wow, Natsume saying she's not cute or clever with lots of teeth. ]

Like what? I bet they're not as awesome.

( She's cute but he isn't a dentist or into his fingers getting bitten off so he's not gonna check her dentals, okay. )

The alligator snapping turTLE. It wiggles a pink extension on its tongue and consumes whatever prey that comes by and gets fooled into thinking it's a WORM. There's been at least one report of a marGAY, a type of small wild CAT, using vocal mimicry to try and lure the small monkeys it hunts into striking disTANCE. The assassin bug vibrates a spider's web in mimicry of trapped prey and then attacks the spider once it gets close eNOUGH.

( Maybe he'll teach her how to make one if she triggers the right flag for it.

He looks over his shoulder, lips curving up. )

Would you like some tips on how to deal with avoidant stuDENTS, Little Wolf? You know I'm an exPERT. ♪ ( Not something he should take pride in, but he'll turn back halfway to her. Some genuine advice: ) For Sato-chan, I think what's best is to let her come around on her OWN. You were in her class last YEAR, weren't YOU.

( It's a question, but at the same time, it isn't. )

If you WERE, I'm not surprised she'd find interacting with you and Hiro-kun... diffiCULT, to put it lightLY. In the meanWHILE, I could always pass on a message for you TWO.

( Not that he's. expecting her to trust him with that, necessarily, but. )

[ Nanami sparkles, ]

Im so happy I met another game player. Im so happy - ah... But I did come here to ask about something on the laptop. Do you think you can help me?

[ Thank you Lucifer-senpai. At some point during the week when Kokichi walks by they're going to try to banish him. It's practice! ]

[ Insane. Rika returns to normal school, shard of glass lying on the ground uncrushed, spots of blood dripped on the ground but from Rokkun's hand instead of hers, though her hands still burn with nonexistent lacerations.

Rokkun gives her a look like he wants to say seven years, bro, but he's not going to say it again. ]

[ rude!!! ]

[ does it have to

He's hiding... from Komaeda... that's where he's hiding. Rokkun is his friend, but the guy doesn't keep the best of company. Instead of hanging out at homeroom or going home after school, Akira's found in the home ec room, rooting through the spice cabinet and pulling out bottles of dry sage, bay leaves, and basil. ]
