First.

[trustharder]

Friday dawns much like the rest of the week before it – that is to say, obnoxiously. The klaxons are as loud as ever first thing in the morning, and anyone wandering out into the main corridor will be pleased to know that- ...Oh. It's a straight shot down the hallway, meaning that everyone's line of sight is likely to be immediately drawn to the unholy mess going on past the threshold leading to the dorms. There's some hints that someone may have been busy out here last night – for one thing, there's a chair lying on the ground for god only knows what reason. That's obviously not supposed to be there. Come on, guys, clean up after yourselves. Of course, there's also a fucklot of blood. That's probably important. It seems concentrated on the far end of the hallway, closer to the elevator than the dorms. There's also a large trail of it leading somewhere. That's probably also important. Despite everyone's best efforts to keep themselves busy and optimistic about escape, looks like somebody got restless last night. >Explore?

Z... Zagi-san...

[Megumi, who has been pretty dead quiet when following everyone to see what the commotion was about, is definitely going to start crying soon, if she doesn't end up fainting first.

This can't be, he was fine yesterday, so why...]

[isafraid]

Miss Megumi... [You look like you're about to fall over, which is concerning because there's a lot of blood around here. Please don't fall in it.]

I don't want to give orders or the like... but maybe you shouldn't be in here.

[devastation]

I... I know, but...

[Her legs don't seem to be cooperating when it comes to moving right away here, and now there are definitely tears spilling down her face.

... that bulletin board over there on the dining hall wall says that she's supposed to be "Protective", but she sure hasn't lived up to that title now, has she?

We're sorry that we didn't protect you, Zagi-san]

I'm sorry, I'll...

[She doesn't really finish that sentence so much as start taking some shaky steps out to leave. We won't get in your way here, everyone.]

[isafraid]

[He watches her make those first few, shaky steps away from the terrible mess, half expecting her to fall over right there. He's close by, in case she does decide that it's too difficult.]

...Miss Megumi.

[He's shaking a little himself. His own title was aptly deserved. It was only a week... and look at these people he'd come to like. Now they'd lost one, and everything was slowly tearing itself apart.

Even still, giving her a positive look was the most he could muster.]

We'll... we'll all figure it out. You can be certain of that much.
