...okay
[ that's all she says. and if Tsuyukusa comes by Fall dorm later, he'll see a conspicuous new addition to their entrance: a lump of blankets. ]

[ what looks like could be the head of the lump turns in Tsuyukusa's direction ]
What...? Wait, did you actually go and beat him up?

[ the blankets deflate ]
Yeah...that sounds about right.

I'm gonna be honest I do think erasing your sadness for a weekend didn't help. He brought that up.
But the rest of what he said didn't make any sense. And when I told him that he just said I didn't understand. As if he knows anything! We've both been through too much to be treated like stupid children!

[ suddenly the blanket monster throws itself at Tsuyukusa for a giant blankety hug ]
I like being a child, though! I want to be one! I just--I also wanna help!
But all I ever do here is screw things up and make them worse!

[Oh. She already sort of was but now even more so Mabel has been imprinted on him. This Is His Little Sister. He will pat her back through the blankets.]
You know I know how you feel. But you just-You have to just keep trying. Even if you're sad, or mad, or scared.
You can't just shut it out. That doesn't work. You have to just... Just sort of acknowledge it. And then keep going. I'm not good at it, neither are you. But sometimes I can pull it off. You can too.

[ she only clutches him tighter ]
B-but what if I can't?! What if all I'll ever be good for is--is screwing up and making all my friends hate me?!

[He lets her. He'll grip her shoulders supportively.]
Well I'm your friend and I don't hate you, so obviously that's not it!! Like I said before, I think you're strong! And you have a weird brain which means you can think of things other people won't, right??

I mean...I guess...
But that only helps if the stuff I think of is actually true...right?

It's okay! It doesn't really hurt that bad anymore, it's just weird to walk right now.
And besides, I wanted to help with...with finding stuff...

[ shakes her head ] Mm-mm.
Just a big ol' mess in the lab room. And a plush toy. And some plates and cups. I...I think it was Leo's. [ starts tearing up ]

[ with a sound somewhere between a sob and a laugh: ]
I don't think he meant to, Tsuki.
I do wish we could've taped him down and put a camera on him last night like I said, though...
[ ...and then her lip wobbles precariously, and she grabs Tsuyukusa in a hug and sobs into his shoulder. ]

[ nods through her sobbing ]
Yesterday, when we found out he was teacher's pet this week! I said we should tape him down and put a camera on him so he couldn't wake up outside and we'd find out how it even happens, but...
...this is so, so much worse!!

[ rushes forward to hug him aggressively ]
I don't care!! If they just wanna hurt whoever's the easiest person to target, then...maybe I don't want to get along with them!

[She can hug but he is bonking her on the head.]
Idiot! I can take a few hits!? Especially after what happened! Fuck, because I waited so long, we didn't even find out who killed Leo!?
And besides, you're stuck here with those people! Don't go alienating yourself on my account?
