Doki Doki After Party Club

[myliteratureclub]

[Later into the evening, everyone will find familiar handwritten notes on their doors. It's pretty obvious who it's from:]

"Please come to the cafeteria if you don't want to be alone or talk some things out. Emiya (Shirou) will be preparing food. You're also welcome to bring your notebooks if you'd rather just write with company."

---Monika
[Those who decide to come will find nothing has really changed in the cafeteria, but Monika sitting at one of the tables while Shirou cooks in the kitchen. She has a new stack of notebooks and pens with her in case someone needs it. Monika does her best to greet everyone with a smile. The only real comfort though is the smell of good food.]

[ An empty page before her. What does she even...? ]

Hello, Connor. I... Well, it's been a long day.

[ that's not an answer ]

[preconstruction]

I know. But that isn't an answer.

[throwabookatit]

[ She sighs heavily. When she speaks, she doesn't sound annoyed, just a little...frustrated. ]

I can get nothing past you, can I? What answer do you think is right, hm?

[preconstruction]

There's not a "right" answer, I just...

[ hm. ]

I know it was a difficult day for you.

[throwabookatit]

It was a difficult day for everyone, Connor. Are you asking this of all them, too?

[ The page is blank. Nothing. Even as she grips the pen, nothing. ]

[preconstruction]

No. I am asking you, because I had to stop you from hurting him.

[ at least he's honest? ]

[throwabookatit]

[ Ah... ]

...He still would've deserved it. But I- I set a...poor example for the younger ones, didn't I?

[preconstruction]

That wasn't the extent of my concern, but that's true as well.

[throwabookatit]

What will they think, after seeing an adult react like that?

[ She rubs her temples. Sometimes...she hates being the responsible one. ]
