With your course of study officially completed, for better or worse, there isn't much left for you in the courtroom itself; the elevator will take you back down to the first floor, where you'll be left off – it won't take you any lower than that. But then again, perhaps it doesn't need to. Take some time to reorient yourself, to be grateful that you didn't die, to do whatever it is you need to do – however, if you return to the main part of the building, away from the dorms... Well. There's something waiting for you in the foyer.

[blackmass]

That didn't work out very well for you, did it? My condolences.

[trustwellness]

No better for you, and you know it.

[blackmass]

What do I care? I've nothing to lose anymore.

[oyashiromama]

[...]

You are technically both alive and dead, right?

[There's still...leftover gummy tails.]

What would happen if you ate this?

[blackmass]

I said I had nothing to lose, not that I was stupid.

[oyashiromama]

[...POUTS A LITTLE.] It could prolong your life, you know? Silver ate one and it didn't hurt him!

[blackmass]

As much as Avenger and I now seem to be on terrible terms now...[CASUALLY GLANCING AT NOIR]

...I said that I wouldn't abandon it. I...don't particularly want to go back on that. But for all I know, it's this or having my heart explode in the next five seconds.

[oyashiromama]

[Ah... Hanyuu's shoulders sink a little.]

To still stay here...with it, and nothing else? Kirei... I would still help you find a place. ...Both of you, despite what you've done. I would help you too...I meant that.

[blackmass]

...

[About a month or two for a life expectancy alone with a pissed off elder god...

[...ooor eating the thing and either dying on the spot or losing all connection to it.]

Just give me the damn thing.

[Kirei Kotomine is unstable. Not stupid.]

[oyashiromama]

[...PERKS UP AGAIN she's learned from rika tbh-

Hanyuu hands him a gummy tail. Wakey tail? what the heck are these.]

[blackmass]

[Fine, he'll eat the damn thing.]

[...and immediately collapse, in a sudden rush of dissipating shadows coming off him like smoke.]

[uncouthhatcher]

[... oh uh.]

That looks really unhealthy.

[HE. CAN MOVE, TECHNICALLY, HE CAN JUST BRIDAL STYLE NOIR AROUND, BUT HE'S NOT INCLINED TO CHECK ON KIREI. IT'S JUST KIND OF ALARMING.]

[oyashiromama]

[...SHE JUST KNEELS THE FUCK DOWN BY HIM, HEART IN HER THROAT--

Did she just. accidentally kill him.] K- Kirei...!

[blackmass]

[And after a second, he sits back up coughing and saying some less than pleasant things in Japanese.]

-that is absolutely vile--!

[oyashiromama]

[LANGUAGE YOU ARE IN THE PRESENCE OF A GOD--]

Oh, thank goodness-- aah- you're- did it work?

[blackmass]

I'm not dead, despite feeling like you just poisoned-

[blackmass]

...poisoned...me...

[He seems to have noticed something or other, give him a second.]

[blackmass]

...I have a pulse.

Why do I have a pulse.

[oyashiromama]

[...]

Because...this was a miracle, Kirei Kotomine.

[blackmass]

It was a revolting piece of candy, not an act of God.

[uh, technically-]

But I-...don't think I've much energy left to argue the point, after everything.

[tsugomori]

[ ... well okay. Did the guy just die...whatever the case that looked extremely alarming. ]

[modernmedicine]

[After she's gotten her legs under her...]

Kotomine-san, a patient of mine at home had an experience that left him very much in a mindset of needing to learn how to be alive again after very closely escaping death. He went to study with a monk who did him a world of good. The invitation is open, should you want it.

[blackmass]

...You people are far too forgiving.

[It's not a 'no'.]

[modernmedicine]

I think everyone deserves a second chance. Think about it, no?
