[evidentiary]

Makoto, I found two others.

[optimistical]

Two others?

[ why can't she be more specific........ ]

[evidentiary]

From the same place. We should consider meeting up next month at the latest.

[optimistical]

Really? Who are they?

[evidentiary]

Kaguya and Byakuya. But I think they were from another class...

On that note, I do need to speak with you in person about something else, probably.

[optimistical]

Should I come over? I'll be free in a few hours.

[evidentiary]

Yes, when you have the time. I think there's a memory we should discuss in person.

1/2

[optimistical]

All right, I'll drop by and knock then.

[ AND like he said, he arrives knocking on her front door a few hours later once he gets home. he also has a cup of hot coffee for her because it's practically tradition by now for him to always get one for her whenever he's over or vice versa ]

[evidentiary]

[ well, the coffee gets a tiny smile or what equates to it for her as kyouko opens the door. she ushers him inside to sit down. ]

Ah...Kaguya remembered something in particular that sparked a memory for me. It's a little concerning.

[optimistical]

[ he will hand her the cup of coffee before he sits down probably at the dining table ]

What was it about?

[evidentiary]

[ ...

WHERE...TO START... ]

Confirmation we were trapped in that school...and also, information about how to "graduate".

[optimistical]

[ trapped? graduate?? ]

Huh? What do you mean by "graduate"?

[evidentiary]

What I remembered was akin to the Headmaster addressing a new class, I suppose...? Except the "Headmaster" was "Monokuma", and that address...

Was less than fortunate. "Graduation" meant to "leave the school", apparently. Kaguya...told me about a similar speech that was given to her.

[optimistical]

I don't remember anything like this.

[ his memories are pretty vague with all this stuff... ]

What does "leave the school" mean? It's not like we're trapped there.

[evidentiary]

It seems we may have been. The speech indicated we were to live a "communal school life" inside those walls.

[optimistical]

So they're forcing us to stay in? Isn't that a little extreme just to keep us studying?

[ ah so naive... ]

[evidentiary]

...I believe the motivation was more to have us...kill.

[ yeah ABOUT THAT thanks peko ]

[optimistical]

K... Kill?!

[ way to drop a BOMBSHELL ON HIM ]

[evidentiary]

[ LOOK HOW DO YOU REALLY EDGE INTO THAT ]

Yes. He was quite vehement about it.

[optimistical]

[ TRUE TRUE... monokuma did the same in dr1 and dropped it like too... ]

Wait, so you mean that... we're trapped in this school and to leave, we have to kill someone?!

[evidentiary]

Those appeared to be the rules, yes.

[ WHY IS SHE CHILL ABOUT THIS ]

[optimistical]

[ why can't she be this chill when naegi wants to keep some secrets to himself like really ]

No way... No way that could happen! Isn't Hope's Peak suppose to be a really big and prestigious school?

[ he doesn't remember much about the school but based on what he remembers of it, he can't imagine that something like that could ever happen ]

[evidentiary]

It is, but...something must have happened to make such a thing occur...? After all, I wasn't the only one to remember that set-up...

[optimistical]

But...

[ he doesn't doubt that kirigiri is misremembering or anything like that. he trusts her and he knows that she wouldn't joke about something like this but at the same time, it's so hard to believe. ]

Regardless, it couldn't have lasted long. We wouldn't have killed each other. We're classmates and no one would fall for something like that.

[ the audience laughs ]
