"ISN'T IT?"

Wow, his world sounds completely insane? Then what, pray tell, is a normal danger supposed to be?!

"Oh, right, you probably don't have robots..." He huffs in annoyance. "You have golems? Or like, magical talking objects or something???"

[bibliocorn]

"Nnnnoooot really. Not unless it's been enchanted to speak via a spell. But then that thing doesn't really have a mind of its own."

He considers.

"Certainly nothing that would try to make foals kill one another."

[shslliar]

"Exactly. That bear's practically the mask for the real mastermind behind this mess... Whoever they are."

Kokichi's got a horrible bitter taste in his mouth on top of the crushing guilt. He never did live to actually find out who that bastard was...

[bibliocorn]

"So whoever it was used the bear to... to make you kids kill one another?"

He doesn't understand. It's insane.

"Why would they even do that? What's there be gained from that barbarism?"

[shslliar]

"I don't kn-!!"

Kokichi is cut off by a frantic Gonta, rushing up to them with a strange flashlight in his hands. "Kokichi! Gonta found flashback light near forest! We gotta tell the others!"

Kokichi turns his head towards his old friend and stares...

"..." He hates this event so much.

[bibliocorn]

Sunburst watches the exchange, pawing the ground uncomfortably. He hates this and he imagines Kokichi hates it a hundred times more.

"I...from what I understand of this event, your memories repeat themselves until you learn to forgive yourself for whatever you're feeling guilty about."

[shslliar]

Kokichi turns his head and gives Sunburst a wide eyed look.

"... You're kidding, right?"

[bibliocorn]

That was clearly not what Kokichi wanted to hear. He exhales, shaky, unhappy.

"I wish I was. I- look. I can stay around. If you don't want to be alone, I can understand why no one would want to be alone for all this," he considers. "No matter what the result."
