Please let August be better than July I'm begging

✽ Due to 10+ classes raising their ranks last month, ALL characters have access to the courtyard via the door in the locker area and the windows facing the courtyard.
✽ Characters with 1-10 tallies are not able to get any further past the end of the courtyard before they fall unconscious; characters with 10-20 can get halfway to the pool building before the same happens to them; characters with 20+ tallies can reach the pool building but unfortunately, the door is on the other side. There are no windows on the walls, but from the clocktower, characters can see that it has a glass ceiling, though they are unable to see inside.
✽ Outside, there is no breeze, and it occasionally rains ash.
✽ Characters going up to the 4th floor will feel that the door is warm to the touch, and will occasionally open (see: missions)
✽ The student store opens, with the door propped open with a doorstopper. The npc running the store is currently not interested in conversation, but may be available for threading in the future and is available for threading in the toplevel below. Please see the updated bonus activity page for more information.
✽ Posted on the bulletin board and also handed to each club president before break is the notice that proof of club activity is due at the end of break. Please submit these proofs in the toplevel below.
✽ There is another ad on the bulletin board advertising an exchange student program for the month of October. Applications will be taken until the end of August, and there is a 300 merit point fee. Sister cities include Death City, Devildom, Ishigami Village, Lanling, LazyTown, and Maiami City.

( ankle socks in plain color, not as cute as npc-kun's. )

He's an Ultimate, a person who embodies so much hope that'll mold our future...

( he settles his elbow on the table, resting his chin in the palm. )

It's surprising you have that...

sighs that this is the first time i get to use this icon

[adsum]

You can't have it.

[ They'll say it again through gritted teeth, even though Komaeda never asked. Because when the implication is that they're undeserving of it, and he's wrong— it was a legitimate business transaction, agreed to by both parties, and they're not giving it back even if Amami comes up with real money in exchange. ]

we have to make sure you use it more often they're sooo CUUUTE

[commences]

I don't want it, ( he has amami already ) I just think... that's lucky to be noticed.

( his voice is light and carefree, smiling softly as he looks at the other. he kind of wishes he could still see the ring, it looks nice. he clears his throat, closing his eyes. )

Take care of it... something from an Ultimate is special, and from him... I can sense good things.

( sighs wistfully. )

[adsum]

[ "You can't have it" npc-kun says, but they still look offended when Komaeda says he doesn't want it, because how dare he. ]

I'm going to treasure it forever... You don't have to tell me.

[commences]

( he pauses, staring, they must really like amami which isn't surprising to komaeda. he claps his hands together, nodding to himself. )

Not everyone can be in an Ultimate's light, and to have a keepsake...

( he stands, leaning over the table. )

Make sure your wedding finger free.

[adsum]

Wha-

[ They blink in surprise when Komaeda leans in, but doesn't pull back themselves.

... ]

I tried with this one but it's too big. I'd lose it.

[commences]

You threw away our marriage...

( he sighs, a little sad, now he's going to push their nori off the table... like the fat cat with the glass. )

[adsum]

[ Why!!! npc-kun reaches for the nori, but they only manage to grab the corner of the package, and the sheets themselves slip out and slide all over the floor.

...

They drop the package on the ground too, and look back up at Komaeda. ]

You didn't give me a ring.

[commences]

( he doesn't want to talk about it now, he's sad, and... well he's just doing this because... his mind is like clockwork...

he's hated now...

which he'll stand up, pushing his chair back. )

It's because I'm nothing to you...

( sighs!!! )

I'm waste... just like the nori on the floor...

[adsum]

You're so high maintenance.

[ He's worse than npc-kun, and that's impressive. ]

All you have to do is give me a super expensive ring and we'll see who's right.

[commences]

...No. I don't want my last name spread around.

( the bloodline ends with him. )

[adsum]

I'm not taking your last name. You're taking mine.

[ They don't want to be a Komaeda? ]

[commences]

...No.

( and that's final. )

The oldest person's last name is what's chosen.

[adsum]

Nuh uh, says who? My name's better.

[commences]

Says the law.

( as if komaeda listens to the law. )

[adsum]

The law doesn't have to know.

[ look at them, a shopkeeper even though they're [redacted] years old ]

[commences]

( they can marry simulation komaeda and avoid the law! )

That's going against everything you stand for, as a shopkeeper, I thought you were an honest businessman.

[adsum]

I am. But when the law is wrong, it shouldn't be followed.

[ fuck the law!! esp one so stupid like this one ]

[commences]

That means I can steal from you, if the law is wrong?

( talking about the law. ) You know... I was almost part of the student council... I could have been the law.

( frowns sadly... his murder trials... taken!!! ) Then it would have been right.

[adsum]

Stealing is wrong.

[ Especially from innocent shopkeepers.

... ]

Why didn't you want to join?

[commences]

That's all that you take from the law, it also says the older participants name is what's taken in marriage...

( ... well, SOMEONE burnt his ATTEMPT! )

Oh, someone's hope shined brighter than mine, so it was only right they got to be part of it.

[adsum]

Oh. Too bad.

[ He doesn't sound upset about the loss, so they're not going to sound very sorry about it, returning to the topic they're more interested in. Komaeda Keigo sounds terrible, this can't happen. ]

Maybe I'm older than you. How old are you?

[commences]

( keigo's not even their NAME. )

...How old are you?

( he parrots, like he's keeping a secret from the world... )

[adsum]

[ He doesn't know that ]

I asked you first.

[commences]

( he frowns. )

Why didn't you come to my birthday...

( they didn't even come to see him... )
