[ this is the sketchiest note ever... like really, who would actually read it out loud and go yes, i will do what this note tells me to do. go to a specific area at a specific time at night. nothing wrong with that, right? like who falls for these things? ]
[ ... naegi does, apparently ]
[ he did at least find it sketchy and was considering not going but what if it's something important? or if it's a clue? he shouldn't ignore it if there's a possibility for that... so dressed in his new winter jacket (thanks kyouko), he arrives in the area that was specified in the note at the exact time. he's nervous since he doesn't really know what to expect so his hands are in his pockets, fiddling with whatever he has in there (keys, crumbled receipt, a pen) and he shifts weight from foot to foot. he's definitely a little jittery so come to him, mysterious note writer, what do you want with him? ]
I'm getting more and more concerned about your trip... I wish there was some way for me to send you guys some ice or something. Are you guys at least hydrated? Or at least have some sunscreen?
And thanks, Daisuke! So far, it's off to a good start so I'm optimistic about today ٩(◕‿◕。)۶
[ surprisingly, naegi is actually free today. you'd think that with two~three jobs and school, he'd be busy but nope, he's got the day off. maybe they just didn't schedule him in because it's his birthday and if that's the case, that's very nice. he can just relax at home and when tatsuma knocks on his door, naegi is quick to open the door. ]
Tatsuma? What are you doing here?
[ btw naegi's answering in his winter clothes, jacket and all, because hahahaha paying for heating in the apartment, who does that?? ]
um we have these mind links with our assigned partners. apparently they didnt work the way they wanted it so we can only hear thoughts that we dont want others to hear....
[ takeout... tatsuma is truly the grandson of his grandparents, making sure that naegi still eats and doesn't starve to death while daisuke is away. naegi's wonderful guardian angel.... 。゜゜(´O`) ゜゜。]
Tatsuma... you really didn't to do this! Don't tell me that this is all for me.
[ there is definitely a moment of silence as naegi just... watches wiz leave daisuke's room, pause to look at them, and then keep on walking to the living room like he didn't just disappear for weeks like goddammit why are their lives like a sitcom. who approved of this show, cancel it immediately ]
... um, I... don't really know what to say right now...
[If he's not supposed to say it, what's he supposed to do here, Makoto.
Just kidding. He only looks clueless for a couple of seconds before moving to step inside, unless Makoto wants to keep him out in the cold for some reason.]
