Thread: Danganronpa 2.5: Return To Hope's Peak Academy (Athene & Potter-kun)

Kyoko Kirigiri , Aoi Asahina , Akane Fujitora Ooooooookay. God. Is he ... not all there or something? Unfortunately, Akane was merely the Ultimate Brawler, not the Ultimate Psychology Expert. She couldn't make a fair assumption based solely on what she saw. Well ... not about his sanity, or maybe lack of. She could , however, fairly deduce one thing. Her caution to keep some distance hadn't been a completely unfair move on her behalf. In fact, it was rather smart, all things considered. More nerve-wracking than Nagito himself, however, was this room. What in the fuck is this? Why ... does it look like this? Even when she had lived in her former 'residence', Akane had never been informed about something like this happening. Her teeth latched onto her lower lip. More than feeling unsafe around Nagito, she was suddenly feeling on edge about having been dragged here . Suddenly, Hope's Peak was feeling way more chaotic and less safe than when she had last attended here. Jesus fucking Christ. What's happened since I was here last? It's like the whole world's gone to shit! ... Yeah. Sure. Mind ... filling me in? I never even hear about ... whatever the fuck 'this' is supposed to include. The thought that she may have to e more honest about herself did not make Akane overly happy. However, with how clueless she was, it was feeling more and more necessary. Besides, if the others may be as cautious as Nagito had hinted, there would likely be one person to demand she give more information about herself to the other members. And if only to clear her name - once and for all - she would. Not happily, but that was fine. This was one of those moments Akane would force herself to swallow her pride and do the right thing. Mostly, anyway, Aoi silently agreed, nodding as Hajime commented how the water was already helping ease his mind. The news that Yuta wasn't here would very likely haunt her for quite a while. At least the rest of the day if not a bit longer. It wouldn't be forever. She would make sure of that much. Still, with Aoi now knowing she had been so dumb and hasty to heed a clearly suspicious note, she wasn't feeling overly well about herself now. Worse off, if her sibling truly was alive ... then she had ruined any chance to actually look for him. What was practically killing the swimmer - more than anything - was that factor. The what-if. Was Yuta even alive and well? It was something she'd feared for years. Now ... well ... her concerns had returned once again. Slowly, Aoi turned her head and finally found a topic to bring up to her assigned partner. Hajime? What do you think about all this? I mean ... if we're not here to do another set of killing games ... what is going to happen to us, then? Hmmm. Those all have valid points, Kyoko agreed, mentally tucking each thought Makoto brought up away in her head. It could be someone we know from somewhere, yes. But are the chances honestly that high? ... Not really. At least, it didn't seem that way to her, more so if the voice earlier had been dead serious about Yuta not being here. Under normal circumstances, I'd say that logic is too simple. However, a lot of other things thus far have been that way. From the letters to even the old 'ransom note'-esque way of making them. Though this person does have some hints of intelligence and took a lot of time and effort to make this work, it's not looking like there's any ulterior motive aside from keeping us safe. So .... maybe you're on the right track. Despite not possessing an athletic skill, Kyoko was no klutz. So when Makoto brought up her 'Eden theory', she didn't stumble while ascending the stairs like she could have. Her own face burned as she quickly moved her head from side to side. W-Well ... I didn't mean to quite imply that . But I am saying what I probably have already stated. This doesn't feel as random as it could have been. Still, it'll be easier to make that verdict when we all meet this newcomer, Akane. Anyway .... Taking a moment to clear her throat, the couple would soon arrive in front of the Faculty Lounge. Kyoko first took a deep breath, half-expecting a Monokuma to pop up as her hand stretched out. Nope. Thankfully, that didn't happen. And it was indeed unlocked, just as the person had promised. Good. Let's check it out. Not only was this room clean, but from a quick glance, it looked like checking here would be pointless. All the same, it didn't fully stop the Ultimate Detective. She briskly walked inside and began to thoroughly check the place out hoping something - anything - out of the ordinary would stand out.
