[there's a really long pause before Akira sends another reply]






No. I'm sorry.

. . . my plan didn't work.

[resortghosts]

I should have been more careful. Maybe if I hadn't said anything at the trial, or if I hadn't talked about the camp, they wouldn't have figured me out.






I'm glad you're not dead, though.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . . . . haaaaa]

[better me than you, he thinks]

Without you, we're fucked.

We needed you.

[resortghosts]

I'm sorry. I wish I could have done more.

But before I died, I did check [AND THERE'S A BUNCH OF GARBLED TEXT]

[purrtagonist]

. . . [just. smiles wryly, without humor and with a lot of ruefulness. OF COURSE SHIROU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TELL HIM. . .]

Cynthia, right?

I'm guessing they'll keep censoring you if you try to tell me the results.

[resortghosts]

Looks like it. I guess it would be too easy otherwise.

[purrtagonist]

As if we aren't COMPLETELY screwed already. . .

. . . how are you feeling?

[resortghosts]

Well, I feel like an idiot. I should have known not to [GARBLE GARBLE]

...That's not going to come through, is it. Shit.

[purrtagonist]

[uh]

Did. . . you do something out of the ordinary last night?

[resortghosts]

[GARBLE GARBLE GARBLE]

[purrtagonist]

[OH MY GOD]

I'm taking that as a yes, but it's still not very helpful.

[resortghosts]

Sorry. I don't think I'll be able to help from this side.

[purrtagonist]

[. . .]

Thanks for everything you have done, Shirou.

. . . and not just for the game either, but for me.

[resortghosts]

???

What did I do?

[purrtagonist]

You were there for me when you found out about my little issue.

It might seem small, but. . . it meant a lot.

[resortghosts]

It was the least I could do.

[purrtagonist]

[. . .]

We'll do our best to catch the monster responsible for this.

[resortghosts]

I know you can do it. Even if it's difficult, you can figure it out.

[purrtagonist]

You have a lot of faith in us.

[resortghosts]

You guys aren't nearly as stupid as we were at the camp. For example: you did a metaverse thing and did not lose your fingers.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . HA]

Of course you know about the Metaverse.

And of course I didn't lose any fingers. I just fought a twelve-year-old.

[resortghosts]

Ren decided to touch a stone god who looked like a crying child and was telling him to stay away. So.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . . . . . ah, well]

I hope he tells people he lost them in a fight with a bear.

[resortghosts]

More like a fight with a moose.

[purrtagonist]

Significantly less cool.
