WEEK 8
[When you wake up, there's a text message in all of your inboxes, warning about how stressful exams week can be. The email comes replete with names of study sessions, tutoring hours, and free pizza on other parts of the campus. And it encourages you to check online for the exam schedule based on your class and section number.
There's also a note that there will be weekly stress puppy pop ups to help you relax? So that's nice and thoughtful! But ultimately, at Fayflower, they just want to make sure everyone has what they need to do well on their exams.
What a nice email.
But things have obviously deteriorated around you, with the wall looking visibly... damaged? If you get close, it's extremely easy to lose track of yourself... and you might come away with a few bruises you didn't know you got. Who knows. Maybe Terra?
Happy final week.]

Seriously, who are you? This is Amami.
no subject
wait i gave myself away oh no
no subject
[God... Rantaro has a lot of mixed feelings about Mitarai... But then again, he is also stuck in the simulation and knows about Monokuma and those games...]
Oh, good. For a second there, I thought someone tried hacking the system or something.
How are you holding up?
no subject
Yes, it's me.
In all seriousness, Gogol and I have been working very hard on keeping everyone else in the loop; so if you did want to talk to someone else, by all means let me know.
I've been doing
a lot.
I don't really know where to start
I guess the most important part is that
I believe Vivienne has saved me and everyone else
the way you all tried to tell me...
no subject
It's cool. I don't mind talking to you. Besides, you probably need the company.
[He almost smiles as he reads through the message.]
Told ya so.
Yoosung-san passed a lot of info onto Poe at the meeting today, but I still have a couple of questions.
You think you can help me out?
no subject
It's nice to talk to you too, Amami-kun. I appreciate the few companions I have here very much, but, well... let's just say there's no such thing as too many.
no subject
Anyway, Yoosung-san mentioned a Han-lookalike called H/Nah. Do you know if this is the same guy as the hacker or the guy who sent Todd that note on the second week?
no subject
[...]
H has a real human living body in your realm, that looks like Han Young but with a scar on his face now, across the bridge of his nose, and he's been operating technology - to dispatch an android against Connor, even send a text message to Lieutenant Anderson at one point. With all those actions, H was reinforcing James and Todd's wishes - retaliating against the interruption of the "midterm results", for example. There's not literally proof that H sent the note to Todd, but they're working together, so it stands to reason.
Nobody has bothered our server at all since the seance hacking incident. (After all, Vivienne increased the security; that's also why we had zero contact with you until now.) The official party line on H's involvement therein is, and I quote, "probably". We don't have more of his actions to analyze and trace back to him. Maybe no news is good news...?
no subject
Thanks for the info.
From what you said, we can cross out H being a brainwashed Han unless there's mind control shennanigans going on. And thanks for letting us know about the lack of communication.
Now you said you were doing a lot.
Like, is this about the PG or you looking to break everyone out on your end?
[PG... Guess what that means.]
no subject
I know for a fact perfect disguise is possible.
After the tragedy by the wall, Han Young was with us, though his condition hasn't been the best.
Vivienne's been protecting us from H all along,
and she refused to upload people who were still alive - like Poe-san.
When H acts on your side again, you'll know for sure he's not here.
With her technology a person's intelligence can only be in one place at a time.
She goes back and forth between the simulation and her robot body.
Not just copying herself for more time to exploit us.
That's what convinced me the most of her good intentions.
We're just in a sanctuary...
Though breaking out seems like flying to the moon right now.
Let's just say this film is not yet rated 人（＾_-）;
no subject
Perfect disguise... Well that gives plausibility to one theory I had.
What happened to Han Young?
That's a good thing to know.
Guess we can't have extra backups though.
Just in case the sanctuary gets compromised.
I heard you guys might have to get robot bodies yourselves. Would you be ok with that?
wwww
no subject
Connor and Vivienne really don't make having a robot body look so bad
And
This is kind of selfish but I really want to see places outside the simulation, and leave my mark on them too
Producing anime from the simulation would technically be possible but I'm starting to get frustrated with not knowing what else to do
It's kind of how I backed myself into a corner in the first place
(As for Han... Unfortunately I can't say he'll be capable of messaging anyone.)
no subject
[Huh... The producing anime thing still leaves a bad taste in his mouth... But if that's the thing this guy knows how to do best...]
Maybe you could try taking drawing/animation commissions?
IDK how you could use the money but your artwork could cheer people up.
[...]
Oh, and about the hope anime you made before you died...?
It's still here.
no subject
You didn't delete the Joy Video?
Did you watch it?
You can see how it's merely stunning since you can still type
Did you like it?
I really think it might be useful there!
no subject
Yeah, don't get too worked up over it.
You realize you created an audio/visual smoke bomb, right?
no subject
I'm so glad you all are starting to finally understand the true purpose of applying my talent combatively
no subject
Thanks for the ammo, but there's something you need to realize here.
There are other ways to brighten people's days than brainwashing.
Like, if you wanted to do nice for someone, draw them fanart.
Or make them one of those complex coloring books that seem to be popular these days.
Heck, you could simply hang out with people over coffee if you're starting to feel burnt out over drawing.
I know this has been a stressful situation and technically it still is, but I hope you haven't forgotten to enjoy the simple things in life while you got wrapped up in your work.
Life ain't easy, but the little things make it easier to bear.
You get what I'm saying?
no subject
Kim-kun has really shown me the beauty of humanity
He makes us EVERY meal, you have to see it to believe it
I'm so lucky I got to meet him again and we could officially become friends
Rika-san really was right when she told him anyone can and should ease the suffering of the weak
I wish I'd had coffee or something with you too when I could, Amami-kun
2-D hosts events like that sometimes... He's really supportive of everyone here!
Hey do you want me to scan one of the illustrated guides I made for the festival?
Though some things are probably going to be different like your amount of supplies...
no subject
I'm glad to hear that. \(^^)
[Really, he is. After everything that happened at Mitarai's trial... He's glad to see the guy is doing better on the other side.]
IDK if that would compromise security, but if you can do that w/o getting in trouble then go for it!
And lemme guess, simulation = infinite supplies?
