[ the cyoa drives itself. and also she was surrounded by magic-wielders, so her contribution felt pretty minimal to her. but she's happy with the results regardless. ]
Yep! I mean, the whole place was glitching, and so were we, but I was only there for... hm, less than a day before we started through the portal? And I kind of lost track of time when we were in there.
...Don't do that, Clementine-san. It's not your fault. None of what happened is your fault. We had the numbers, so... it made sense. And we knew we'd make it back, so it's okay.
But really, it's okay. We're back now, and we remember everything, and the leaders are... well, as safe as they can be, I guess. [ they don't know what's happening tomorrow? ] With all of us here, it'll definitely work out.
That's a relief! I was getting really worried about some of you, you know? It's strange how the Realm took so much from some people but not the rest... kind of unfair, if you ask me.
He's not the only one! Hikaru-san and Riegan-san both had it bad, too! [ ...there's a soft laugh. ] But at least they didn't forget they're a horse. I can't even imagine how weird that was.
[ imagine looking down and finding hooves when you least expect it. ]
Same here. I know I forgot some big stuff, but I still feel like I got off kind of easy compared to the others.
When I went running around through Rabbit's memories and got fucking stabbed the monsters didn't care about getting shot. But running around in Wolf's memories, they did.
So if we're fighting something, we just have to hope shooting it actually works.
week 7, friday.
[ ochako is beaming! she's so pleased at how many of her team made it through alive? ]
I knew you guys could do it. And thanks for finding the leaders - we were all pretty worried about them.

Yeah? You could tell they were in trouble?
no subject
Yeah - Goat-san came to talk to us. Or his aura, or something? He said they were lost, but that you guys were going to go looking for them.
no subject
Were you, uh... Okay? Over there? [ wherever the dead went? ]

[ ... she takes a deep breath. ]
Look, I'm - I wanted to say sorry.
no subject
[ but, okay. at that, she blinks in surprise. ]
Sorry for what?
no subject
[ like for you to sacrifice yourselves? ]

I just wanted to say it once. That I'm sorry. [ that makes twice? but it's fine. ]
no subject
[ just. a little gentle teasing. ]
But really, it's okay. We're back now, and we remember everything, and the leaders are... well, as safe as they can be, I guess. [ they don't know what's happening tomorrow? ] With all of us here, it'll definitely work out.

ANYWAY ]
So then you remember that you're a hero, now?
no subject
Did you guys remember everything, too?
no subject
Yeah. Seems like we got everything back when we found the leaders.

no subject
[ he lost, like, his whole life? ]
Yeah, things were really... Uneven. It was never even that bad for me, until the end.

[ hah. ]
Well, either way. Even if things were uneven, we should all be back to normal, now. I think.

Guess we'll deal with that if it happens.

[ EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. ]
At least the leaders should be here with us this time. If they can point us at the right monsters, we can both shoot them down!
