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

--Huh? How do you know that?

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

[ 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. ]

[ 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.

[ 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. ]

[ 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 ]

[ 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 ]

[ 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?

[ 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?

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.

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?

[ 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?

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

[ you've got her??? ]

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 ]

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.

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... ]

I can't say it would be something logical, either, if "fortune teller" is an option...

[ thank GOD she isn't that. ]

Of course, our skills and personalities may be somewhat different here? ...Although you seemed more or less yourself in the single memory I have.

[ au where kirigiri is the fortune teller who is also a good detective while hagakure is just nothing. ]

Right. You did have purple hair in my memory like it was some kind of anime.

[ ?????? ]

Though wasn't our first meeting sort of like this as well? Back in biology class?

[ was she also super quiet... just silently doing her own thing, cutting up frogs while he was like aaaaaAAAAA ]

...I what.

[ sorry. WHY DID SHE HAVE PURPLE HAIR. kyouko...discreetly checks her hair - which is neatly braided back for the day. still black!! ]

...Also, it was similar, but...you were panicking about frog innards. That made it slightly different, I think.

[ he was going to comment on the frog innards because look they were super gross and he is justified to think that but let's talk about purple hair instead ]

Yeah, you've had purple hair. And purples eyes.

Hm. You weren't anime-colored...although you did have different eyes and hair. Still, it was recognizably "you"...perhaps a little younger, but not much.

Huh? What were my eyes and hair like?

[ he instinctively raises a hand to his head ]

Your eyes were green. As to your hair...it was light brown, and messier.

[ "messier"...she refuses to think about anime hair physics. ]

That aside...I didn't recognize your school uniform, so perhaps it was to "that" school. I've never heard of "Hope's Peak", so I don't think it exists here...? Also, there were other people in the room, but I wasn't paying attention to them.

[ probably because everyone else introduced themselves while naegi was being late to the party, or something. or maybe they all introduced themselves while he was talking to them one on one??? mysteries. ]

[ messier...? like bed hair?? well, if this was in high school, he guesses he could see that being a thing. ]

I don't remember meeting anyone else but maybe I'll get memories of them later. I don't know what triggered the first one I got though, the one where I was researching the school online.

[ the second one has a clear trigger but no idea about the first hmmm ]

I actually have no idea what I did to trigger my first memory, either...annoying.

[ also i'm making my list to draw from and i can't wait to regain such thrilling things as:

MAKOTO: Kirigiri-san, good morning.
KYOUKO: ...good morning.
MAKOTO: ......
KYOUKO: ......

Our conversation seems to have come to a stop.

MAKOTO: Um,
KYOUKO: ...do you need something?
MAKOTO: N... no... Nothing in particular...
KYOUKO: Is that so.

She went away...she doesn’t speak much, does she?

i'm sharing because i can. AT LEAST SHE'S CONVERSATIONAL RIGHT NOW?? someday he'll realize how amazingly share-happy she is right now. when she's still cagey. i can't believe she could be worse. ]

But, this does tell us rather a lot even for two relatively minor memories. Among other things...it's unquestionable that the two of us are from the same "world".

[ LMFAO GODDAMMIT let's try to regain that one next somehow. does naegi need to make her upset for this to happen (tho that could lead to a whole other memory...). he's going to be so grateful for this au version of kirigiri after he learns about the horrors of the ou... ]

Yeah, I've been told about that theory, that we're from different "worlds" or something like that.

I've asked around a bit like we've said and I've also learned that the worst kind of memories you could get are... of you dying...
