Trash Squad Day 1: Korekiyo

[truthstranger]

[ In Korekiyo's dorm room or something, probably. ]

Alright... I wonder where I should start.

[Well, of course it's somehow weirder. Her presence is more intimate, here.] [She regards him with a look of scorn.] Is that all you have to say? I've heard you lying before...

[truthstranger]

Why would I lie about this!!

[justpure]

... [That was... A surprisingly good question. But who would we be able to trust here? She remains firm with him.] Were you the only one who lived?

[truthstranger]

...At the end... it was me, Keebo-kun, Harukawa-san, and Yumeno-san. But Keebo-kun self-destructed to destroy the school, and... then I ended up here, along with Harukawa-san.

[justpure]

... Just you and her? [Was he... Honest? It seems unreal.] But what became of dear Yumeno-san?

[truthstranger]

...I'm not sure. She didn't show up at the game with us, and the school was collapsing...

[justpure]

Oh... Where could she be...? [She humbly smirks. Perhaps that dream was achieved after all...] [Yet it wasn't by his hand, was it? And if it wasn't real... He was so much further away...] [Shuichi knows nothing. He doesn't know who he really is.] [And yet...] ... I'm sure she's safe... [That was Kiyo's voice, chiming in with his "Sister's."] As far as we know, that is... And besides, we now know of at least one place that may bring back the dead. Our other classmates. Wherever they are. [Getting dizzy, Shuichi?]

[truthstranger]

[ It takes him a moment to follow all that. ]

Mm. It's true they can bring back the dead, as well as transport people to and from alternate timelines. There are ones where everyone lived... But, we can't go to those without replacing our 'selves'. That's what we learned last time.
