WEEK 5

[lockdownmods]

[ You're doing well! In fact, there's a nice message in your inboxes on Sunday reminding you about your midterm evaluations, and how those will be coming very soon. Make sure you're studying! And, of course, there will be support services on campus to help you cope with the stress. The message almost looks like it should go on and list what those services are, but it cuts off abruptly, and that's that.

Meanwhile, the wall is more ominous than it has been in the past. What felt oppressive last week feels oddly eerie, and if you let yourself stay near too long, it feels oddly comforting and calling. Your freedom is just on the other side of the wall, after all. But that's okay, someone has posted a warning outside all buildings to not go near the wall.

Oh well. At least there are new locations to explore!]

...Hmm?

[ Raises an eyebrow. ]

[whatsmytalentagain]

[Tilting his head at the magatama for a sec.]

[ososoi]

Y-Yeah?

[whatsmytalentagain]

[Rantaro's gonna take that as a yes?

Don't mind him as he adjusts the length of the cord so the magatama hangs a little higher than the middle of Matsuno's chest. He should be able to get his head through it so he can remove it in the unlikely case he wants it removed.

How's that?]

[ososoi]

...Yeah, that should do it.

[whatsmytalentagain]

[He nods and ties it off. He used a pretty strong knot, so it shouldn't fall apart on ya.

Rantaro holds up his palm, signaling Matsuno to wait while he gets a pair of scissors to cut the excess cord.]

[ososoi]

[ And so he waits. ]

[ Osomatsu briefly holds onto the magatama, noting how smooth-feeling it is. ]

[ It may not be magical now but it's... almost comforting. Almost. ]

[whatsmytalentagain]

[He comes back to snip off the extra length off the necklace and steps back to admire the necklace.

His smile as he saw Matsuno cradling the magatama seemed so gentle and warm...

Rantaro takes out the notebook again.]

Take good care of that, okay?

[ososoi]

[ Osomatsu raises his head. ]

...Yeah, I will. Thanks.

[whatsmytalentagain]

[Matsuno gets a wide grin in return.

You're welcome.]
