ᴇɴᴛʀʏ ᴛʜʀᴇᴇ ➸ text & action

Option A: [text]

I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE TODAY. sorry!

- yukiteru

[ That's all it says. ]

Option B: [action]

[ Of course, that's not how it works, here. And he knows it. In a way that's almost certainly going to make him late for class, he slowly peeks out of his dorm room, trying to time it so that he's not going to be near anyone else in the hallways. As if he were trying to traverse a mine field, he's slowly, cautiously, taking wide, swerving steps throughout the hallway, his eyes constantly looking upwards for signs of mistletoe.

He can smell it. Mistletoe, everywhere. He knows what's been happening with that. Even if Yuno isn't here anymore... he doesn't want to risk it. ]

I'd kill for my Diary right about now...

[ He grumbles, trying to dodge yet another mistletoe on the ceiling. Of course, this particular one is right in the middle of one of the busiest corridors in the entire school. He's not paying attention. Cue a potential collision... ]

She's not here anymore, is she? And besides, I don't really care if some yandere chick tries to off me.

I don't know. But that's why you should just trust me on this one, okay?

That doesn't ma-- [ Wait... ] What does 'yandere' mean?

[ Yukki wasn't exactly an otaku. ]

It's usually someone whose love is so sickening that they'll kill anyone who gets in the way of their relationship. Even if it is a misunderstanding.

... [Unfortunately, Reisuke has some trust issues of his own--maybe not as strong as Yuno's issues, but nonetheless it's been a long time since Reisuke actually trusted anyone. So, he can't help but be kind of stubborn.]

I don't need help--I'm an elite, Onii-chan. I can handle anything that she might do!

That sounds really complicated.. I didn't even know gods could die, but I guess it would be pretty important that there is a god there, at least.. so I think I understand that he really wanted to find someone to take over.

[ Although.. yeah, she doesn't have any idea why like that either. She guesses it's customary in his world, even if it's really cruel. ]

[ ... well, Yuno was definitely the type to stab first and ask questions never. Even if he wouldn't call it 'sickening.' He blames her nightmarish childhood and the Survival Game for that. ]

Umm... well... she's really not a bad person... [ He can't argue with that, if that's what 'yandere' means, that's definitely Yuno. ]

I don't want you two to fight.

[ It'd be different if it were someone like the Third of Bacchus. ]

[ Well, Yukiteru was never exactly the religious type, but Deus wasn't the benevolent being most world religions paint him as. He was more of a troll who made the Survival Game pretty much because he can. ]

i didn't know either, and i never really asked why he was dying

[ In hindsight, he probably should have. ]

Then we won't fight. [Fighting is such an ugly word, Yukiteru.] We'll just play together, that's all!

As long as it's a different game than last time...

Oh, don't worry Onii-chan, we'll play a different game! It would get boring to keep playing the same game over and over again, right?

Just... promise me you'll let me know as soon as possible if you see her, okay?

["As soon as possible" is debate-ably flexible, but after a moment of thought he nods.]

Mm...okay, I promise! That way, you'll be able to play with us too!

So?

[ She shakes her head dismissively, folding her arms over her chest. ]

That sort of thing is in the eye of the beholder; it all depends on one's morales.

Right... [ Well, whatever works. ] Thanks, Reisuke.

Maybe they're a lot like people? We die too after all at a certain time.. it's probably just a whole lot longer in those cases.

[ Not that she's really thought much about it before - I mean, who would? - but it sounds reasonable enough. Taking the existence of different kinds of gods into account, that is. ]

it's possible... i should have asked him while i had the chance

It's okay. It maybe sounds a little sad, but by now it doesn't really matter anymore..

[ Sure, it's really sad that they don't get to see their worlds and all the people in it anymore, but on the other hand, it also means they can maybe (very, very slowly) put the problems of said worlds behind them as well. ]

We're all here now, after all.

no... but i guess i should have also asked what the afterlife was like while i had the chance, because this definitely isn't what i imagined

Me neither, if I'm honest.. I mean, heaven's supposed to be filled with angels and all that, right? This is just an almost normal school..

i doubt anyone who actually went to heaven would come back to tell us what it's like

i can't believe i forgot to ask deus what happens when you die, that should have been one of the first things i asked

[ Murumuru probably would have just said something like 'You get buried in the ground,' he can almost never get a straight answer out of her. Deus could be called many things, but 'a liar' isn't one of them. ]

haruhi said this isn't heaven or hell, but something else entirely

Something else?

[ She didn't really know that much. Does that mean there's someone here in the afterlife who does know what exactly is going on..? ]

But why wouldn't it be heaven or hell..? I thought that's where people went to when they die..

i have no idea

i wish i could ask him now

It's strange though.. if he died as well, then shouldn't he have showed up in this place too? Or.. well, it's weird how only some people make it here and others don't.

[ She sure hasn't seen any of her dead friends yet. ]
