Day 15

[pandatrash]

[There are really only two important things to note about Day 15:

One, your tablet informs you that there's a killing night tonight! Tonight we're back to normal; only one murder, please!

And two, there is shitty prepackaged deli sushi in kitchen. So uh, y'know. Enjoy that.]

That... doesn't matter! It was with me that we found what it opened!!

Just give it back!!

[purrtagonist]

And Will was the one who gave me the wine to give to Dazai back after our first killing night, so I'd suppose that you two weren't the ones who found the wine cellar.

[tilts his head at her]

. . . don't lie to me, Erika. You know you don't have to.

[very_good_end]

I don't know or care about "what Will did!" It was locked and undisturbed when we found it!

[has balled her hands into little, shaking fists]

There. is. no. LIE! It was Futayo-san's, and now it's mine, so just hand it over!

[purrtagonist]

[standing up now, using the wall to brace himself]

. . . would you like to speak in private, Erika?

[very_good_end]

[she's still crowding him, face and body tense, tears starting to form in her eyes]

Only if you hand over that key!!

[purrtagonist]

[it's the tears that do it]

[he offers her the key, but his gaze is affixed on hers, like he's looking right through her]

[he knows why she wants this. he would have given it to her from the beginning, if she had approached him honestly]

1/2

[very_good_end]

[finally when it's clear he's giving it to her she snatches it, makes sure she's holding it with a long stare, then pockets it.]

[Immediately she starts to calm down, taking a moment to breathe.]

[very_good_end]

...Thank you, for being able to see reason, Kurusu-san.

[Then, her tone goes back to normal like nothing happened.]

Ah, you wanted speak in private? That is all right. I will consent.

Are you ambulatory enough to handle the stairs? Or if you have a place in mind, that is acceptable as well.

[purrtagonist]

As a matter of fact, I do have a place in mind.
