AI HOSHINO ID 7392-263-A03 Ai-chan is amazing! Her energy is impressive, and she's a really skilled performer. She said that she's never had a nickname before... I'll have to think hard about that! More than anything, part of me feels that we're the same.
NIINA YAMADA ID 7392-263-A13 Ah, Niina-chan is that type, isn't she? Hard on the outside, soft on the inside. It makes me want to get to know her more! I can see that sweetness shining through!
WELT YANG ID 7392-263-A08 It's strange to have a different roommate after so long. But Welt-san is a calming presence. He's measured, careful. I wonder what his life was like before this...
BRIANNA LEWIS ID 7392-263-B08 Bria-chan speaks her mind! She's the type that seems to have others' best interests at heart, always looking out for us. It feels warm!
BROOKLYNN ID 7392-263-B10 I wish I knew Brooklynn-chan's channel, I feel like I made her sad not knowing it. Maybe she'll be able to show me? No, not here... right? She's kind, I feel close to her. I want to look out for her.
DYSMITHIA ID 7392-263-B13 He's such a serious person! But I can tell he wants to be connected with us just as much as anyone. I gravitate toward these snail-types, don't I? I can't help it!
LACUS CLYNE ID 7392-263-B04 Lacus-chan has a kind, considerate aura. Though, I feel that it comes from a difficult place. Politics can be so complicated... Regardless, I hope that we can sing together one day.
REX SLOAN ID 7392-263-B02 He's... quite brazen! But I see that he has a good heart. He stands up for others. I'll admit, I didn't expect that of him. If you have a loud voice, you may as well project. Right?
RUDBECKIA DE BORGIA ID 7392-263-B01 I want to hold her and look out for her! Rudbeckia-chan seems even more lost than I feel. We have a lot in common, but I feel like I can put my best foot forward and help her where she needs it. I'd like to get to know her, I feel we'll be good friends.
[by the time brooklynn makes her way back to her room after... everything. she'll find a little note slipped beneath the door on craft paper.]
Brooklynn-chan,
Angel is safe and tucked in for the night, I pet her until she fell asleep. So don't worry about her!
I'm sorry that I wasn't able to help you more. Today was hard but I hope you know that none of this is anyone's fault. Especially not yours. If you need anything I'm here for you.
I'm sorry, today is harder for you than any of us. Kurumi-san was a kind person. I'll always remember her fondly. I thought you'd like this, too.
♡ Nana
[Inside of the note are two black-and-white printed photos from the computer lab carefully trimmed to size. The group photo is folded in such a way to highlight Karen and Milk (there's a sticker over Alan's face if the photo is unfolded). There is another photo of Milk at the pizza party mid-conversation.]
[Written on the back of a black-and-white printout of Nana's selfie with Ai after calisthenics, the first picture they took together, in gel pen:]
I hope you believe me when I say that I care for you. Truly. I don't know that anyone here understands me as much as you do. We're always on stage, aren't we? The good thing about being here with you is that it felt like we were always whispering to each other in the wings, just outside of the spotlight.
I'm sorry that I couldn't think of a nickname for you. Friends should do that for each other... I'm just not very experienced. Ai-chan is Ai-chan to me. I'm glad you're my friend. You truly are dazzling.
[Written on the back of a black-and-white printout of the group photo, in gel pen:]
I really am envious of you, Kabru-san. You're the kind of person that people can believe in no matter what. I'm trying to live like you said, to take and remember my regret, but... I'm not the strong person I thought I was. I'm the type that holds what others think of me above all else. I'm sorry that I couldn't do the right things with your advice.
They're all good people. I love them all. Please make sure they get home.
[Written on the back of a black-and-white printout of Karen in the dining hall in her makeshift infirmary post-dodgeball, a look of mild surprise on her face, in gel pen:]
You really are cute in this photo, Minazuki-san! Thank you for being so kind to me all along. You're a wonderful person. Please take care of yourself as well as you take care of us all.
[Written on the back of a black-and-white printout of Nana's selfie with Niina the day of their first kiss, in gel pen:]
It's a rare thing to see the soft heart beneath someone's strong shell, I'm lucky I could see yours. You're really a sweet person, you know. I can hear you disagree with me, but I'm very wise. ♡ Listen to your obaa-nana!
Thank you for being here with me, for fighting for me, for loving me. Remember that others will do the same for you. You have people here looking out for you, who will stand by your side. Don't lose sight of them.
[Written on the back of a black-and-white printout of Nana's selfie with Bria, Nana flashing a little peace sign, in gel pen:]
I've never met anyone like you, Bria-chan. You're bright and forward and loyal. I think it might make you laugh to know I'm envious. I'd always thought I was that sort of person until I saw the way you move through the world. Effortlessness is an appearance you have to rehearse tirelessly, so please make sure to take care of yourself. I know you'll make it out of here, so I don't have to wish you luck.
Thank you for being so kind to me this week. I don't know what I would have done without it.
[Written on the back of a black-and-white printout of Nana and Turo's selfie during the birthday(s) party, in gel pen:]
Thank you for listening to me. You've been so kind to all of us, Turo-san. To me, too. You deserve that kindness just as much. I can hear you saying "You didn't need to do this," but that's not true when it comes to people who care about you. And we all are. We all love the person you are.
I hope you'll get to experience so many brilliant new things. They can be nice, too.
[There are a few black and white printouts in the trash that have messages like "I'm glad that I met you, you'll always be my friend" and "I'm sorry" written on them. The one that is available to be distributed is the one here, written on the back of a black-and-white printout of the group photo, in gel pen:]
[Written on the back of a black-and-white printout of the group photo in gel pen:]
Is it impolite to say I felt like I understand some part of you? Maybe that's just because I consider you a friend. Friends understand each other to some degree, don't they? Still, I wish I knew you better. I'm sorry for how I've acted lately. You've helped pull me back up in spite of it all. Thank you.
If I should pass away, please give all of my possessions that haven't been claimed by my fellow subjects to Aijo Karen of Seisho Music Academy. I don't see why you can't accommodate this request. What could bring more despair than that?
