Week 5

[airlockedmods]

[As with the weeks before, life in the Fantasy Sweet returns to something resembling normalcy with shocking efficiency. The second floor rest area and Adventure Zone Death Orb Room are spotless again, the demon glitter has been vacuumed, the deflated orbs have been replaced. It's like none of it ever happened, like three more friends aren't dead and stored away in the guest house morgue.

There's a new floor to explore, their "reward" for a job well done.]

...If people are dead back home, this could be a second chance. So...

[Have... hope? That's not really a Zero Time Dilemma Junpei message. Sorry, Nishitani-san.]

[buddyoldpal]

[ Your attempt is noted, Junpei. ]

So...?

[misanthropicprinciple]

So it's not all bad news, I guess. And if my theory is correct, there may be a way back, too.

[buddyoldpal]

[ I wish Nishitani was more fun but he kind of just doesn't react. ]

Back where? Home? Yer place? 1988?

[misanthropicprinciple]

All of the above.

[buddyoldpal]

[ He hums. maybe a little interested, but... ]

And if we ain't got nobody ta come home to?

[misanthropicprinciple]

...Well, then there's no reason not to go sightseeing among the stars, once we get out of here.

[buddyoldpal]

[ Nishitani chuckles once. ]

Sure, kid. Space is exactly where I wanna be as a yakuza.

[misanthropicprinciple]

Well, you could always jump to a history where things went better, I guess.

[buddyoldpal]

[ Wouldn't that ruin the flow of time... not that Nishitani worries about such things. ]

What, like go back and stop my own fuckin' murder?

[misanthropicprinciple]

[He smiles, but it's kind of a cold, edged smile.]

Stranger things have happened.

[buddyoldpal]

[ He laughs, though it's mostly empty. ]

Ain't that the fuckin' truth.
