come out of hiding, i'm right here beside you

[barehands]

[A while after the execution has ended, everyone will find a simple note slipped under their door.]

If you don't want to be alone after everything that's happening, some of us will be in the dining room. Even if you decide not to come, please remember that you aren't alone here.

[The note isn't signed, but the handwriting is feminine and neat.

For anyone who decides to come, there's a good array of food laid out on the table. There are some small and simple cakes, cookies, and pastries, a healthy amount of okonomiyaki, okayu, and other Japanese dishes (with a focus on rice and eggs), along with curry. In addition, there are pancakes, and a large pot of soup. It looks like a few people collaborated to make enough food for everyone here.

Just like the meal they shared together earlier in the week, the candles from the storage room lend a more peaceful light than the fluorescent lights above.]

I wouldn't put it past you.

[...Well, then.]

Nor would I blame you, mind. But I wouldn't put it past you, no.

[wow rude]

That's not a concern.

[...right now, anyway.]

[...]

It's nothing personal against you, you know.

[armamenta]

I didn't think it was.

[You don't trust anyone, do you?]

[enhancements]

As long as you understand that.

[...He doesn't, no.]
