MC: *approaches the girl they've quietly obsessed with for years—the one who became their light, their reason to smile, the one who made their heart skip a beat. They had always kept their distance, convinced she'd remain pure only if they never reached out. Now, a gun resting loosely in their hand, they take slow, measured steps toward her*
MC: The world has been cruel to you, hasn't it? If only I'd been faster, you wouldn't have had to face any of this. Oh, but you're headstrong… brave… always able to find the silver lining. *smiles softly at her, though their pupils are unnaturally dilated, almost swallowing the color of their irises*
MC: But it's not too late, is it? You can still go back to who you used to be.
Her: ...I don't know. I don't really know...
MC: Why…? You're not giving up… are you?
MC: *as if receiving a silent confirmation, their expression settles into quiet disappointment* You're a waste. *pauses before letting out a small, almost fond smile*
MC: Ah, but it's not your fault. *their smile lingers, directed more at themselves than at her* I suppose, for all the affection I've held for you over the years, I can grant you one small favor.
MC: *guides her hands around the gun, as if testing her*
Her: *hesitantly levels the gun at MC*
MC: *the look of admiration returns to their face* Good girl.
*Then, a gunshot rang out.*
Cater: MC-chan~ You busy?
MC: Ah, Cater. No, not at the moment.
Cater: Yay! Then you should totally come over to Heartslabyul! Trey baked a fresh batch of cookies and wants you to have some. You can't say no to homemade cookies, right?
Cater: I'll take that as a 'yes'! See ya' later~.
MC: *watches him leave through the door, catching the hint of awkwardness he tries to hide*
*It's been a month since they mysteriously arrived in Twisted Wonderland. When they woke up, they immediately knew they had died. Strangely, they felt a sense of relief knowing that their light hadn't lost herself after all. Even so, the presence of everyone else at the school made them feel sick, and they found themselves back at square one—forced to endure the same dull boredom as before.*
