[ that's fair, he'd rather hanako think about that rather than what happened. ]
...you think? [ how does he not know. well, those things do tend to screw up memories so. ] Ryuki sort of explained things to me but not very much. If you could redo it again though then...does that not mean you went back to the start?
I don't think Ryuki is one who handles stress well, so that doesn't surprise me very much. [ he just comes out to say it. ]
...that sounds pretty awful though. Having to be displaced like that while keeping the memories of the before times. [ he does not say he thinks he knows exactly what their adventure was inspired by either even though he has an extremely good idea. ]
...[ he has to really think about this because that's such a weird grey area for him that he doesn't entirely know where to put himself. ]
No, when you phrase it that way I suppose you're right. Knowing that people you care about are safe is more important than yourself. It would almost be harder to still be around knowing they might not have.
It's Fridays for me. On Saturdays and Sundays, at least we're doing something...
[ Saturdays they tackle the mystery, knowing that they're working so hard to proactively send one of their friends to death. Sundays make a mockery of it, forcing them to cheer for one person over another, regardless of their past deeds.
[ he considers this for a moment, reflecting on the varying fridays where he has laid in bed with will to brainstorm all of the ways they're going to catch a murderer on saturday while being sad they've lost people.
maybe hanako has a point. ]
"Doing something" is a very generous way of putting it but I get what you're saying. An attempt being made instead of waiting around helplessly for something else to happen.
Right, exactly. I don't have my usual methods or abilities, but I've been thinking of workarounds. [ but he shrugs. ] I'd like to talk to whoever's available. Everyone, ideally, but...whoever I could reach.
[ i miss ace already. and reigen, too. but all of them have to come back. so whoever is out there... ]

[ Hanako didn't understand it at the time, but now he does. Ryuki probably talked about it as much as Hanako did, which is not very much at all. ]
There's no such thing as starting over. For us, it was simply a continuation... for everybody else, a new beginning.

[ like, it could've gone so so much worse? they tpk'd but he still thinks it was a good ending ]
We got to save Yashiro... and my brother. And Hung and Tama, too. Knowing that they'd be safe is more than worth it, even if we were displaced.

[ does he get survivor's guilt every weekend? no. but maybe he should ]
no subject
On what sort of occasions?
no subject
[ the fact that he can wake up, and knowing that one of their number would never wake again. ]
no subject
I've been trying to decide what's worse. Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays. So far it's been a three-way tie.

[ I love Fridays though, either I'm dead or I can catch up on other things bc everybody else is mopey, it's a win-win

...hey, Nico?
no subject
...what's up?
no subject
...we're running low on time. Is your team okay?
no subject
We have a little time still, don't we? [ this isn't really an answer. ]
no subject
[ Next week would be a waxing gibbous, and the week after that... the full moon ]
no subject
Worried?
no subject
[ His team never had the pressure on them, being tutorial, and it feels like it only gets harder and harder each week ]
no subject
We'll be okay. I don't like waiting either. [ not to mention how unfair all of this is for everyone. ]
no subject
...Okay. I know you won't let us down.
no subject
Definitely not. I've still got a few other things I have to try before this gets worse, too.
no subject
Are those... secret things?
no subject
Not necessarily. [ he gestures to the shelves. ] I'm grabbing some things to try and call the dead.
no subject
[ He doesn't know too much about other ghosts, but at least for him it's as easy as calling his name ]
Who do you want to talk to?
no subject
[ i miss ace already. and reigen, too. but all of them have to come back. so whoever is out there... ]
