RECORDING 17: THE FINAL DAY.

It's the final day, before the night when the massacre begins.

You've all talked and planned - and as you wake up, on the last day you have allotted to you...You know, instinctively, it is now or never.

That today, you either break free...or die trying.

The hallways are seemingly empty of ghosts, even the vessels themselves having gone silent. The Miasma hangs in the air, as if waiting for your decision.

There is 12 of your number left.

How many will be alive by the end of the day?

Maybe you should get the front door?

[ Putting a hand on her shoulder to give it a squeeze. ]

...I could, um... I could get pressed into the lock and turn from clay or putty to a key, once I have the shape of it, yeah.

[She reaches up and squeezes his hand.]

You can also check for traps or peek outside to see if it's safe.

[ Giving her hand a squeeze before leaning in to press a kiss against her hair. ]

Stay safe, okay?

[She turns abruptly and hugs him tightly, before pulling him down to press a kiss a firm kiss to his head.]

I-I'll do everything I can. You... you have to, too, okay?

Don't worry about me, it takes a lot to bring me down. [ Wrapping his arms around her to lift her up a moment. ]

Remember what I said before. [ Lowering his voice. ] You might have to give him twice the amount of hair pets for me.

You're my friend and I love you. I'll worry about you until the day I die.

[Or, well. You know.

The moment, considering that day could be today.]

...fair warning, um... if he or I go down, the other one will too. So, u-um... I-I think we'd have... a-a lot of regrets. You should, um... no. No. Let me say this right.

[She squeezes him tight.]

If... if I die, please use me before this place can, Wei.

[ Aww Yachi. He's a little surprise for a moment before he leas in to nuzzle the side of her face. ]

I know. I had a feeling it'll be like that... I'm hoping it doesn't come to that.

I will. I will admit it will be hard, but I will for you.

I'd rather be your friend in life and in death a-and... and maybe give you a bit more protection, than be one of her children. I... I don't want to abandon you any more than I want to hurt him.

It's not abandoning if I'm asking you to go, silly.

I'm not planning on leaving here until it's contained, but it'll do me wonders knowing that you both are safe.

But if it comes to that, I'll keep you both close.

...

[She squeezes him, tightly.]

When we all get out, I'm taking you and Osamu on a date. S...so... don't stand us up, okay?

[ Of all the things she could say...

He'll let out a soft little chuckle before he gives her a squeeze. ]

Asking a guy out at a time like this... Aiya... [ Press a kiss against her cheek. ]

It's a date. I'll be sure to make it out if I have you two waiting for me.

[She hesitates, briefly, then quickly and shyly pecks him on the mouth.]

It's a promise.

[And if there's any way to salvage the resentful dead from this place... well, it'll be a four person date with Zombie Ango, she decides quietly in her aching, helpless, hopeful heart.]

[This piece of paper is going to Yachi, yes.]

Indeed, this seems like the best option. If there is another acid web out there, we may need your abilities to help dismantle it.

Yeah...for, um, for the interest of time preservation, once we're outside I'll turn into a little marble or pill and somebody can drop me down the muzzle of their gun and shoot me, if need be.

[tapping him on the shoulder. hey. hey, you.]

[ As soon as he sees it's Dazai, he will wrap an arm around him. ]

First you're giving me your feet and now you're poking me.

[well, okay, but he will need room to show the bling]

Because I figured I could give you something.

[holds up his right wrist where he's been wearing a bracelet full of miasma for the past two weeks]

Nanaka-chan gave this to me a little while ago. She said it was nearly full and was worried about it's breaking and having lashback. Since I negate, it's stayed at that state since then. So, if you think it'll be any use for you...

[ Tutting playfully ]

Aren't you supposed to get jewelry before the break up?

[ He will check out the bracelet though. ]

Ah, that could come in handy for what I can do. [ Maybe it'll be enough to send a vessel to a corner? He'll have to see. ]

Think of it as a "parting is such sweet sorrow" kind of gift.

[but he takes off the bracelet to hand it over to WWX]

[ He'll curl his hand around Dazai's wrist instead to keep him there. Leaning in to press a kiss against the corner of his mouth. ]

What if I want it to be an "I'll see you later" kind of gift?

[this is the lip twist of someone who fully expects this all to go wrong but trying anyway.]

Well... one way or another, you'll probably see me.

Do what you can, then.

I already told Yachi what I hope for... so I'll tell you, too.

[ Leaning in close to his ear to whisper the next words. ]

I'm not leaving until this place is contained, but I do hope you both make it out of here the first chance you get.

That is the primary goal.

[but it's already They Both Out Or They Both Stay, so...

anyway, guess he should return this hug thing]

[ And he's not going to break up the set at all. Giving him a tight squeeze. ]

Good. I am fairly fond of you. I'm very fond of you both actually.

[ It's been surprising that he can still get attachments to others after everything. ]

Anyone who isn't fond of Hitoka is clearly someone not worth considering.

[he's just saying. that one makes way more sense, to him.]

How fortunate, then.
