[ this isn't important until you're back and less busy but so we don't forget kyouko totally comes over with eggs this morning to have breakfast and Discuss Things. maybe they both have freebies by now??? who knows? she has hers?

she's carrying the carton and raps on the door politely even though it is a well-known fact she can let herself in. ]

[optimistical]

[ I STILL NEED TO SUBMIT MY REGAIN SO I WILL HAVE TO DO THAT TOMORROW but in the meanwhile, naegi will open the front door, already up and ready to go!!!! though he'd love to sleep in a bit more... ]

Morning, Kyouko.

[ he'll greet her with a smile and stand to the side to let her in. welcome to the empty apartment where the only furniture in the entire place (asides from daisuke and naegi's rooms) is a nice oak table and chairs... and a random beanbag chair for some reason???? ]

[evidentiary]

[ regain train ]

Good morning, Makoto...have you been well?

[ is. is the beanbag chair new? ]

[optimistical]

[ for the sake of comedy, yes, it is new since the last time she's been over. it actually lays right at the end of the table like you can actually sit in it and not reach the table. this is a really sad apt... ]

Yeah, I'm okay, but how about you? I hope you didn't tire yourself out from investigating.

[ they've known each other for a few years now so he knows that she probably goes Hardcore about this stuff ]

then i caught a cold

[evidentiary]

[ ...kyouko proceeds to eye the bean bag chair... ]

No, I'm perfectly fine...I think I have a better grasp on things. However, I do not believe I will be able to get as much second-hand knowledge about these "memories" as I would like.

laughs i caught one too so we're in this sick boat together (｡•́︿•̀｡)

[optimistical]

[ will she sit in the beanbag chair... naegi will just act like this is completely normal and grab his apron from the oven's door handle so he can make them their breakfast. as he puts it on though, he turns around to face her. ]

Oh! I was going to bring this up to you, but I think I got back one of those "memories" we've discussed about. I just got it last night.

[ handwaves handwaves freebie memories ]

how do we bail

[evidentiary]

Oh...?

[ in boring practical fashion she sits down at a chair, not the bean bag. why is she not willing to do stupid things for me sometimes.

also, she doesn't expand on the fact she got a memory yet, in true why is she this way fashion. ]

And what was it you remembered?

if we kill someone and then blame it on naegi

[optimistical]

[ why is she so boring. sit in the bean bag and be free, dang ]

It was something about a school called Hope's Peak Private Academy. I was doing research on it and it's apparently a school for the super elite. They only accept students who are the absolute top of their respective fields so you have students like a baseball player who was on the champion high school baseball team or an idol who was the leader of a nationally adored idol group. There were some really weird students though, like one's who's a gang leader and another who's a fortune teller.

im in

[evidentiary]

[ ...super elite, is it? ]

Something like..."Super High School Level"?

[ that sounds so much stupider than ultimate and she sounds so reluctant vocalizing it, which is why i'm using the stupidest version possible. fight me. ]

Ψ( `∀)(∀´ )Ψ also 1/2

[optimistical]

[ i am so glad that we can agree on using shsl because it's such a mouthful and it's so dumb. ]

Yeah, that was exactly it. It... sounds pretty ridiculous, don't you think?

[optimistical]

[ ................... WAIT A MINUTE ]

--Huh? How do you know that?

[ it took a second for him to realize that she shouldn't know this ]

[evidentiary]

[ options:

> tell makoto what you remember
> use makoto as a guinea pig to see if you can make him remember what you remembered

THE CHOICE IS CLEAR ]

What do you mean by "how"?

[ yes, she fully intends to play out a specifically unhelpful conversation with him. rip makoto. ]

[optimistical]

[ WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO HIM are they even friends....... ]

Well, I only knew about the term "Super High School Level" from my memory so it wouldn't make sense if you knew about it as well... unless you also got that memory too.

[evidentiary]

[ he's 100% one of her favorite friends, isn't he blessed.

also, for Science. she just repeats the general gist of her introduction unhelpfulness although there's the very smallest hint of a smile from him pointing out that she does know...even if she proceeds to go: ]

...And why do I have to tell you that?

[ why the fuck was her introduction the way it was. ]

[optimistical]

[ he doesn't feel like he's one of her favourite friends... what kind of friends experiment on each other... ]

Huh? Well, you don't have to tell me but...

[ i'm going to fucking submit this thread for a memory regain and have him literally go at her ]

[evidentiary]

[ literally all his past life friends ever ]

If I don't have to, I think I won't.

[ she'll get to go at him in the future whenever she remembers like

everything makoto did ever ]

[optimistical]

[ he's leaving dr1 to move to sdr2 where he'd be treated better by good people like nanami 。゜゜(´Ｏ`) ゜゜。 they can just sit together and play video games and not kill anyone ]

But...

[ and then he stops for a bit, putting a hand to his head. i am glad that this is happening. give him a sec before he starts going mad at her ]

Wait, I... remember this now. We've had this exact same conversation before... right?

[evidentiary]

[ have a tiny canon smile what the fuck is this shit kyouko. either way she clearly approves?? ]

I was wondering if that would work...it seems conclusive that we did, in fact, have this conversation before. [ also she has no clue what either of their "talents" are...? ] That aside...if you remembered about "talents", which do we possess?

[optimistical]

So you were just testing me...

[ wtf don't pull out the tiny canon smile for him. that's cute, he's going to admit that in his thoughts, but that doesn't get her off the hook for using him!!!! ]

But I don't actually know what our talents are. There were a few students whose talents were unclear and I remember that I didn't see your name online. I think I got in out of sheer luck somehow, though.

[evidentiary]

I was testing a theory.

[ also the smile should let her off the hook a LITTLE bit. ]

Hm...well, I wouldn't want any of the four talents you mentioned, anyway. But as you see, I'm not really any more certain what the two of us had either...although "luck" would be a believable talent for you, does that kind of thing really count as a talent?

[optimistical]

[ ok it does get her off the hook a bit but still dang why can't she just test her theory while also keeping him in the loop....... is that so hard to ask ]

I don't think that can be considered as a talent at all... how would you even measure something like that?

[evidentiary]

...Not dying from things that should kill you...? Winning a lottery?

[ you've got her??? ]

[optimistical]

I guess? But for it to be a talent, wouldn't it have to be consistent?

[ just wait until he gets to regain shsl good luck. his luck would be ten times more ridiculous than it already is ]

[evidentiary]

Hm...but, from what we know the meaning is "top of your field", correct? Therefore, I think simply the most extraordinary luck would do. Good or bad...I'm not sure that part would matter?

[ ...that said, it's just conjecture. ]

It's far more likely that it would be something quantifiable, like "Artist" or "Puzzler" or something.

[optimistical]

I don't know if my art would be considered the best, but I could definitely see you as the best puzzler. Or maybe something like best biology student? It'd have to be something that we could do in high school.

[ though this type of acceptance seems more fitting for colleges... super college level... ]
