Week 3: Sleepover with Karaoke!

[latebluemer]

[The weekend is ever-creeping towards them, which means it's time for another gathering -- this time in the newly-accessible second floor, which comes with some of the amenities of the first but better. The soft room is pretty much ideal for this sort of thing, and if there are any windows someone's probably hung a blanket against the void.

Extra kotatsu from long-ago sleepovers have been brought up, there are snacks and drinks scattered amongst the endless blanket nests and pillow forts, and karaoke and the animal cafe are just next door. They can choose to head out for those attractions or bring in the pet animals of the cafe if they'd like. Anything is possible if you believe.]

[Wow, that sure is Tsumugi not drinking. Real awkward way for this to come out.]

[latebluemer]

Shirogane-san...

[Well, there sure are a lot of you now. Go figure. It makes her go back over all their conversations a little and wonder, though mostly she just looks unhappy about the state of the dead affairs here.]

It's fine, Blue Angel.

[A placating smile.]

I was just disappointed by how plain my death was... being squished by a falling piece of rubble as all your hard work is destroyed around you wasn't how I planned for things to end, you know?

[Her dream job ended rather messily.]

[latebluemer]

... It wasn't the ending, though, was it?

[It may have been an ending, and she's still baffled by how a job can result in quite this amount of destruction -- if indeed all of it is related. Then again, the mass media and audiences can be quite the thing.]

You're here now. And I guess... you can kind of rewrite it. If you want.

Major NDRV3 Spoilers and reference to death idealization thoughts

Well... it was for Danganronpa.

[Just... the deepest sigh.]

I poured my life into it... and the season I'm in charge, everything goes plain wrong. I guess it's like they say... don't let a fan of the show run it.

[Haha... hah... ha... There's a bit of quiet contemplation over Blue Angel's words.]

Well... I didn't have any interest in a world without Danganronpa... but if we're fictional... then that means this world still has it, right? It might not be over yet.

[If they're fictional... then that means that the series might not be over yet? Right? Right!? Tsumugi's eyes were slipping into that empty state again, but this line of thought... it brings a spark of something to her eyes.]

[latebluemer]

If Danganronpa was the, um, series you were working on...

[She's totally canonblind here, but she'll do her best.]

Then this world probably has it. If they can cover all of us under whatever they consider fictional, then there's a pretty good possibility that you'll find it.

[jumpedtheshark]

[There's a very long pause. Then a small genuine smile.]

...... Thank you, Blue Angel. I... think I have a lot to think about now.

[latebluemer]

[A tentative sort of smile back at her. She hesitates for a moment, but...]

Okay. Just let me know if you... want someone to talk to. Later.
