[ so here they are again... outside the door... locked from their own place... it's sad and pathetic and naegi has taken a seat on the floor because who knows when kirigiri will come home to save them ]
Daisuke! Your drawings are lovely! I always knew you'd develop well but I'm blown away every time! I hope you don't mind. I might have gotten a bit too excited and shown them to my boyfriend. He didn't see what the fuss was at first but I convinced him of your genius in no time~ ♥
Anyway, I suppose I'm just calling to say thanks. I'll treasure it forever.
[ in the morning, probably like a few mins or whenever after naegi texts with kirigiri... daisuke will get knocking on his front door because holy shit ]
[ It's a Sunday morning. He would normally go jogging early in the morning, but he felt really tired and decided to sleep in. He turns in his bed and yawns before sitting up. He checks the time on his phone before sleepily staring at the door. ]
[ HERE THEY ARE sitting at their nice oak dining table and waiting for their pizza to arrive. they got about 30 mins before it comes so what should they do, hmm... ]
[ Daisuke lifts his head up from the table and looks at Naegi. It's been a while since their first round and honestly, he's kind of scared that Naegi suggests it first.
But there's no progress in life if you don't take tasks!! (what progress). ]
Sure. Do you want to go first? It looks like you have something in mind...
happy birthday daisuke! i hope it's been great so far and that you get all the cake you deserve! ☆ i have a gift for you but i can give it to you on monday at school if you're busy celebrating today! have a day as amazing as you are!!
AND A BIRTHDAY TEXT FROM CHIYO AAAAAaaaa okay calm down there ]
chiyo... ;____;
thank you very much! it's really nice of you to send me a birthday text. i actually forgot that it was my birthday so i havent really done any celebrating (yet).
i can wait until monday! i think it would be easier for you too...
[ early in the morning! before daisuke normally wakes up, naegi has been out preparing for The Day. he's got the gifts (a drawing tablet and a table), they're all wrapped up (well, the tablet is while the desk just has a bow on it), the cake is set on the dining table, and the rest of the bows have been stuck throughout the apartments. naegi has been Waiting For This so when everything is ready, he knocks on daisuke's door. ]
It's a Saturday... a lazy Saturday. Truthfully, Daisuke has been up a little before the moment Naegi knocked because he was texting Chiyo. Just staying in bed for a bit after long hours of school, work, and practicing for the Recolle Ninja event has him tired. This much should be allowed for him, right?
At any rate, Daisuke hears the knock and sits up on his bed. It is finally time to get out of bed and face the day. ]
[ it's been a few weeks since naegi received his... less than stellar memories and even after talking about them with others, he still doesn't feel any better. it weighs heavily on his mind and while he would normally be in his room to think about it, it was starting to get stuffy in there so he decided to relocate to the living room. he brought out his sketchbook, hoping that maybe drawing something would help him get his mind off it but it doesn't actually work. instead, he just sits at the dining table, seemingly lost in deep thought as he just stares down at the empty page of his sketchbook, clearly having gone nowhere with actually drawing. ]
[ Daisuke has passed Naegi several times in the house by now. He thought he wanted some time to himself while drawing, so he generally left him alone, but seeing that there's nothing on the sketchbook, he gets a little concerned. He sits on the opposite side of the table and holds out his hands towards him in an attempt to get his attention. ]
Makoto? What's wrong? You've been like this for a while... Are you okay?
hey, would you mind babysitting some bunnies and doing some deliveries for me? i just need you to place some cards in places and that's it. i can also provide food for the bunnies, too.
i would usually do this myself, but i'm sick.
[ And Daisuke will probably find that there's a unnamed envelope with this card at his place... ]
CONGRATULATIONS.
YOU'VE SEARCHED THE PEN WHERE THEY PLAY TO FIND LITTLE TO YOUR DISMAY, BUT HERE IS MY LETTER TO YOU.
IF YOU EVER WISH TO FIND WHAT WAS LOST, SEEK WHAT HAS BEEN HIDDEN FROM 200 YEARS NOW BROUGHT BACK TO ITS FORMER GLORY ONLY TO BE SEALED AWAY FOR ITS BEAUTY.
[ why is he getting an encrypted text message... He almost feels anxious when he sees it, but it's only from Akira. That's not so bad? And after looking over the card... ]
i dont mind but where am i putting the first card? the rabbit pen...?
[ do you want to build a SNOWMAN??? well, daisuke and naegi doesn't have a choice because they're partaking in the charity drive and they were tasked into building one so here they are! naegi is in the process of packing up a snowball so they can start rolling it when he suddenly remembers something ]
... you know, I just recently remembered l that I got accepted in Hope's Peak because my talent was "good luck".
[ remember that school he told daisuke about? the school of elites? ]
[ Daisuke is also working on making big snowballs. Building a snowman is easy, but Daisuke doesn't think this is such a simple task (there could be something hidden?? who knows), so they gotta go the extra mile.
[ and now they're making homemade gifts for the elderly and kids! this should easy for artsy people like them. so while sitting at their really nice oak table, brainstorming... ]
I know it just said that we should make one for either an elderly person or child but what if we made one for each?
[ so they make two gifts. he'll feel bad leaving one of them out... ]
[A text comes to you in the late afternoon of February 3rd. The sender's name has been encrypted and errors out and there are no signs of who the message belongs to. Clicking on the profile of this Retrospec user brings up a picture of the Retrospec symbol.]
How would you like to help us help you out? Your observation period's up and I want you on this particular assignment. You'll be fine, you're probably not going to die, and we'll be able to monitor you from here. We need help. You've got the skills needed even if you don't know it yet. I know it and that's what counts.
You'll be working with a group (wish I could give you the names, still putting the lists together), but your assignment partner is Haru Okumura. Should you choose to accept this assignment, you will need to meet at the subway and we'll go from there.
You'll be rewarded for your success, of course, but this is only if we have an agreement. Do we have an agreement?
[No other messages will be sent from this account at this time.]
[ooc: Hello! You've been sorted into group 2. Your event log will go up at 9pm EST along with all of the other logs. We encourage you to read the main event log as well for more information about your recruiter and this note. In the meantime, head over to this thread on the latest mod post to meet your teammates. Thank you!]
[ while daisuke is dying on his bed or something, naegi is cleaning up around the apartment. granted, it's already clean enough because, well... there's not much to clean when you only have a dining table as your main furniture and little more in the two bedrooms but naegi likes to make sure that things are tidy. it's something that he was forced to make a habit out of when he moved so he does it every now and then. however, while cleaning up, he finds something just outside daisuke's room. ]
[ a long, beautiful wig. ]
[ wat ]
Um... Daisuke...?
[ if the door is open, he'll just say it in his normal speaking voice (you can hear how unsure he is tho) but if the door is closed, he'll speak a bit louder so daisuke can hear him from his room ]
[ The door to Daisuke's room is closed but it's enough for Daisuke to hear the unsure that's seeping out of the tone. Daisuke grows curious, lifts his head from his pillow and turns to where the door is. ]
Yeah? What is it...?
[ He's too used to hearing that tone to think it's out of the ordinary, so nothing feels urgent. ]
[SO HERE THEY ARE at long last, ready to get started on some super necessary how-to-stab-a-man training!
The dojo itself is cleared out today; Kashuu requested a time it was usually closed, to ensure they could practice without any interference. Also, since Daisuke can apparently just jump off of buildings, he figured having more room would be much wiser than not having enough. Just in case. No one wants to deal with someone accidentally jettisoning themselves through a wall or window or something.
Kashuu is standing in front of the rows of shinai and bokuto, one already in hand. His bokuto bag is leaning up against the wall for now, since it contains his real blade instead of an actual wooden sword.]
[ Daisuke was really grateful that Kashuu took the time to clear out the dojo for his lesson. To show his gratitude, he planned on taking the lessons very seriously and pay attention whenever he could so that the time invested in the lessons feel worth it. Daisuke is swordless for the time being as he stands there. ]
I learned basic footwork from watching videos... And a little bit about how to swing one. I practiced with a thick tree branch, so holding an actual wooden sword might get some time to get used to... That's okay, right?
[ it's the weekend! and they're both free! which is a good thing because naegi absolutely deserves a break from the hell that is called working three jobs and also doing full-time school. naegi is going to die next month but ANYWAY he's sitting at their nice oak dining table with daisuke and he has his sketchbook out. some of his art supplies are on the table as well, some paints, pencils, markers, whatnots, and naegi looks at daisuke with a smile ]
Okay, what do you want to do today?
[ what crazy art time are they going to have now ]
[ It's their weekend art time! Daisuke is so glad that they're doing this again. He really missed it and having some quality time with Naegi is a bonus. Daisuke also smiles back at him and he thinks of an idea that would make this session a little different than the others. ]
I'm curious... You said that Kyouko was from your memories, right? I want to see other people from your memories too! Then maybe I can guess how they're like by their appearance.
[ This is totally a "judging a book by its cover" thing, but Daisuke thinks it would be fun. ]
[CUBEnix's boss is luckily a guy who knows about Retrospec, so Minako didn't have too much to worry about, paperwork-wise. Unfortunately, she can't avoid the fact that she lost a lot of PTO.
The break room is entertaining enough that the sting of the loss is mollified for now. On one particular workday, she decides to make use of it. With the remains of her lunch on the table, Minako can be found leaning forward in her beanbag chair and facing the TVs, smashing buttons to victory.
Until the boss goes into its third form and smashes her character under its gigantic fist. She groans and flops back into the beanbag.]
[ Daisuke had already eaten his lunch, but he still wants a break from the gopher work he does, and he catches Minako playing a game, right when the fist crushes her character. Ouch. Daisuke smiles a little, albeit awkwardly, and approaches her. ]
[ it's the day................ the day that daisuke confesses and despite that it's daisuke who's actually going through with the act, naegi finds himself very nervous. he wants the best for his little brother and knows how much work that was put into this so he can't help but find himself very invested in the situation. since daisuke has left the apartment and told him that today was going to be the day, naegi's been sitting at the living room table, constantly glancing at the front door. every time he hears a noise out in the hallway, his head jerks upwards to look at the door before lowering in disappointment when it wasn't daisuke. he desperately wants to know what's going on so he has perched himself here in the living room, playing with his phone, waiting until daisuke comes back home. ]
[ It's a little before dinner time when Daisuke comes back. All in a good day's work of helping the city! He looks like he's in a good mood. Tired, but happy. The door opens and he announces that he's back. ]
[ the problem with dreams is that you never quite realize when they start and anything strange about them until after you wake up. despite that everything from the strange location to the even stranger circumstances should tell naegi that this isn't real, he finds himself drenched in fear and this sheer belief that if he doesn't do anything right now, something terrible is going to happen. ]
[ his hands grip tightly onto his witness stand and his eyes dart everywhere, from the monochrome bear sitting high above them to the portraits of the deceased students standing in their own respective stands. his heart is pounding, he finds his throat parched, and everything is turning upside. ]
N-No, you're wrong! Daisuke would never do anything like this!
You can't draw a conclusion simply based on what you think, Makoto Naegi. This is the conclusion that has been drawn from hard, physical evidence and alibis. You're not looking so great either with your lack of one, but since we confirmed that Daisuke was there at the scene of the crime, aren't you relieved to have that burden off your shoulders? Even if you were an accomplice, you'll be getting away with the crime scot-free. What do you think, everyone?
[ The rest of the students seem to agree with varying expressions on their faces. Some of them seem eager to pin Daisuke as the culprit, some of them look warily at Daisuke and Naegi, some of them look like they're on the fence about it and are only going along because it's the majority opinion. There doesn't seem to be a way out of this one.
On the other hand, Daisuke looks like he has run out of tears to cry. He was crying when he found out that Kyouko Kirigiri and Chiyo Matsuoka had been murdered, and had been fervently denying that he was the cause of their deaths. But no tears can persuade anyone when they are fully convinced of an opinion. In a place full of distrust, where lies are rampant, even the most innocent could be the one to stab your back when you least expect it. This is the line of reasoning they go for Daisuke's possible murderous behavior. Daisuke denies it every single time, and the one ally that Daisuke has, Makoto Naegi, has been painted as his accomplice. When Daisuke looks around, the rest of the students feel like they're faceless. Faceless people whose opinions shouldn't matter. Faceless people who want a scapegoat.
There's one with black hair, the student that was speaking earlier. He looks confident and exudes the aura of someone that can be relied upon. He speaks up once more. ]
Let us recap the situation, shall we? We found Kyouko's corpse in her room. As we all know, she was a very guarded person. She would only let her guard down around people she trusted, and only two people fit that criteria here: Makoto and Daisuke. There were no signs of struggle either, so it can be said that she was killed by someone she trusted. When the rest of us found her body, only Daisuke was absent. Furthermore, we found a strand of Daisuke's hair in her closet where he could have been hiding right after the murder along with Daisuke's shoes being caked with blood.
[ after a long night... naegi finally finds himself coming back home. he definitely has seen better days with how messy his hair is and how his clothes somehow got dirty after only being out for an entire day and night (who knew benches and bar counters can be so dirty?). furthermore,there's permanent marker on his face (spiralled cheeks and a lush moustache) that he still hasn't noticed and... where the hell are his shoes??? he's only been out for one night and he already looks like a homeless man. on the other hand, the crane that accompanied him looks perfectly fine, like it just went on a nice stroll. the contrast is truly amazing. ]
[ anyway, it's still early in the morning when naegi comes back home. he might have gotten his wallet and shoes stolen but at least he still had his keys... so as quietly as he can, he unlocks the front door and walks in. he has no idea if daisuke is awake right now so he tries to keep silent as he enters. ]
[ It's early in the morning, which means Daisuke went out jogging as usual. Not having school anymore really makes his schedule a lot more flexible than before, which he is grateful for.
His steps are silent, though he doesn't mean for them to be. But it would also be awkward to just loudly walk on purpose. ]

[ his hands grip tightly onto his witness stand and his eyes dart everywhere, from the monochrome bear sitting high above them to the portraits of the deceased students standing in their own respective stands. his heart is pounding, he finds his throat parched, and everything is turning upside. ]
N-No, you're wrong! Daisuke would never do anything like this!
[ do "what" exactly? ]
no subject
[ The rest of the students seem to agree with varying expressions on their faces. Some of them seem eager to pin Daisuke as the culprit, some of them look warily at Daisuke and Naegi, some of them look like they're on the fence about it and are only going along because it's the majority opinion. There doesn't seem to be a way out of this one.
On the other hand, Daisuke looks like he has run out of tears to cry. He was crying when he found out that Kyouko Kirigiri and Chiyo Matsuoka had been murdered, and had been fervently denying that he was the cause of their deaths. But no tears can persuade anyone when they are fully convinced of an opinion. In a place full of distrust, where lies are rampant, even the most innocent could be the one to stab your back when you least expect it. This is the line of reasoning they go for Daisuke's possible murderous behavior. Daisuke denies it every single time, and the one ally that Daisuke has, Makoto Naegi, has been painted as his accomplice. When Daisuke looks around, the rest of the students feel like they're faceless. Faceless people whose opinions shouldn't matter. Faceless people who want a scapegoat.
There's one with black hair, the student that was speaking earlier. He looks confident and exudes the aura of someone that can be relied upon. He speaks up once more. ]
Let us recap the situation, shall we? We found Kyouko's corpse in her room. As we all know, she was a very guarded person. She would only let her guard down around people she trusted, and only two people fit that criteria here: Makoto and Daisuke. There were no signs of struggle either, so it can be said that she was killed by someone she trusted. When the rest of us found her body, only Daisuke was absent. Furthermore, we found a strand of Daisuke's hair in her closet where he could have been hiding right after the murder along with Daisuke's shoes being caked with blood.

07/02 backdating ay ye
[ anyway, it's still early in the morning when naegi comes back home. he might have gotten his wallet and shoes stolen but at least he still had his keys... so as quietly as he can, he unlocks the front door and walks in. he has no idea if daisuke is awake right now so he tries to keep silent as he enters. ]
no subject
His steps are silent, though he doesn't mean for them to be. But it would also be awkward to just loudly walk on purpose. ]
Ah, Makoto... You're back.
