opening cutscene

Lyca: Ugh! Quit yapping at me, you moth-eaten Casanova!!

Edward: Ah ha ha ha. If only my days were still so salacious.

Edward: As it is, I can barely muster a fraction of your energy so early in the morning.

Edward: Have you brushed your teeth?

Lyca: Course I did! I just don't come tell you every single time!

You: (Looks pretty lively in there...)

Obscuary's front door stood slightly ajar. I gave it a hesitant knock.

You: Good morning...

Edward: Oh? A fine morning to you as well.

Ed greeted me with a warm smile from his seat on a bench in the foyer.

Edward: Here to collect Lyca, I presume?

You: Yes! I'm supposed to help him get around while I'm inspecting Obscuary.

Lyca: I don't need your help.

Lyca stomped down the stairs, his lips forming a surly pout as he glared my way.

Lyca: I can get to class on my own.

Edward: You say that, but time has proven that you'd sleep well into noon if Rui didn't wake you.

Edward: You have a lovely lady waiting to escort you. It's poor manners to turn her down.

Lyca: Huh?! What's so lovely about her?!

Lyca hopped down the remaining stairs, glaring at an oddly smug-looking Ed from the corner of his eye.

Lyca: What're you spacing out for? Let's go.

You: Huh? Ah...! Lyca, wait for me!

I said a quick goodbye to Ed, then jogged out the door after Lyca.

Edward: Ah...

Edward: To be young.

You: Huff... Huff... Lyca...! Please slow down...!

I gasped my request at Lyca's broad back, struggling to keep up with him as we entered the woods.

Lyca: (sigh) You walk too slow.

You: Sorry...

Lyca: ...We left too late today. If we don't go faster, you're gonna be tardy too, you know.

You: You did seem a little flustered back there. Did you oversleep?

Lyca: No.

Lyca: That blond gigolo left right after he made breakfast, so i was cleaning up and stuff.

You: Now that you mention it, I didn't see Rui this morning.

Lyca: He said he had to do an air rend or something.

You: (Did he mean to say "errand"?)

You: I wonder where he went so early.

Lyca: Why do you care?

[CHOICE] He's always around

You: He always seems to be around when I come by.

Lyca: Huh? Does he?

[CHOICE] Obscuary's different without him

You:

Lyca:

[CHOICE] I miss him

You:

Lyca:

Lyca: Who needs him anyway?

Lyca widened his stride once more.

Lyca: That blond gigolo and that moth-eaten Casanova never shut up.

Lyca: If Neros was here, he'd let me do whatever I want.

You: The time you spent with Neros really meant a lot to you, didn't it?

Lyca: Course it did.

Lyca ...Neros was like family. Real family.

Lyca's mumbled words painted a faded picture of happier days.

You: I hope you get to see him again soon.

Lyca: ...Yeah.

Once we made it to the courtyard, I turned to Lyca.

You: All right. I've got Anomalous Biology first period on the second floor.

Lyca: I'm on the third floor. Ah, wait.

Lyca turned back toward me, seeming to remember something.

Lyca: I'm eating lunch with Suba today. You come too.

You: Okay! Are you eating on the terrace, then?

Lyca: Probably? I'll message you if we're not.

You: Thank you! I'll see you at lunch, then.

Lyca: Yeah. See ya.

Lyca turned, disappearing into the crowd.

You: (He seems to be adjusting to his life here pretty well.)

I headed off to the second-year biology classroom, a smile creeping its way across my lips as I did.

She's just been on a farewell concert of her favorite music group and now she grieves over their breakup to the extent she finds it hard to listen to their music for the time. MC's phone buzzes so she checks who's texting her. She opens a group chat for the fans of the band and watches people massively leaving it, thanking each other for the time they spent together. Eventually, only MC and a user named Mina are left in the chat. They start chatting and it turns out that Mina is still on her way home too, seemingly driving the same subway train as MC. Mina wants to meet the MC and asks to wait for her. MC is distracted by the station announcement, and once she looks up from the phone, she's startled to find the train dimly lit and colored dark red...
