( anyway, it's been a couple days since he got back, and with classes starting and dorms opening up on the 30th, he figures it might be a bit busy to go making plans then. instead, it's the next day that amami will wander through the school, stopping by spots that he thinks he's seen the other members of their little mission at before. if he finds them? great! he won't take up too much of their time, just asking if they'll be free the next day, and asking them if they can meet up in the new dorm's study hall at... how does four p.m. sound? if he can't find them, they'll find a folded up note on their new dorm room's door that says the same, signed by rantarou amami. )

But, well! Hindsight is 20/20. ]
There were so many of them...the people, that is. So many ages, from different lands and places, all so close together that they appeared to be stuck together, and people even shared a single eye, or had an extra arm...the tree seemed to be practically weighed down with the amount of people. Needless to say, there were faces in there too but at that point I don't think they looked like how a person's face should be normally due to their situation.

( oh, so maybe it wasn't just a pure trauma response that amami felt like they all melted together like that. not sure if it's more of a relief that his memory wasn't making that up, or all the more horrifying for the fact that it was reality. either way, not a fun time, and he doesn't look all too happy to be talking about it, necessary as it may be. )
They were trapped, and they wanted us to help them, but... like that, there wasn't any way that we could find to separate them. We did end up freeing them though. Their spirits... ( and he looks towards meng yao and gundham here to confirm, because he wasn't actually looking at this part so he's not 100%, ) became butterflies, and headed towards the school building.

[Gross, actually. Lucifer probably would've burnt the whole thing down on sight without investigating it or even attempting to free their souls. At that point, eternal silence is better than the scars left on the soul from such an event.
But Lucifer is simply not a nice person in the end, so perhaps it's better that he was not the one faced with such a thing.]
We saw a number of butterflies when we were in the forest, but they weren't quite in mass quantities if I'm remembering correctly. It's unlikely that there's a correlation between the butterflies from the trees and the ones that—
[Hold up, Lucifer has just remembered something.]
—Actually. We did see a large number of butterflies pool around... a fresh corpse, and begin to feast upon it.

But, hm. ]
...Did they?
[ Ugh, that's not something he was expecting but hey. This place tends to be brutal in those sort of things so he feels like it's something that definitely seems like an occurrence that'd happen here. Maybe they should be called hell butterflies instead. ]
They weren't hostile to you and the others, were they?
no subject
The butterflies posed no threat to us. They were only interested in the corpses, which, from their uniforms, were likely once students. I wasn’t able to recognize any of the bodies we passed. Before they met their demise, I imagine they were trying to run away from the creature hiding in the woods.
[ ‘I imagine,’ she says, like she didn’t come to that conclusion after she practically handed a poor boy up to Kazuki on a silver platter. Not keen on reliving the memory, she purses her lips and leaves the floor open for somebody else to take. ]
no subject
...That makes sense.
[ As much as any of this can, at any rate. He has to wonder if the butterflies that transformed from the tree would end up being the same as the ones in the forest. Hopefully not! But, hm. ]
The creature I assume was the one that's part of Kazuki, I assume. Is there anything else notable concerning the forest while we were in that other building? Which, of course, we did find a few things. I for one was able to locate some sort of role call sheet for students along with the homeroom teachers—Kazuki, Akari, and Mizuki.
no subject
( you know, like, the void. he'll read them off from memory though, like he's been studying them harder than his actual homework. )
It seems like they were meant to keep the students safe from Kazuki-san while they completed their first binding for him.

[Oh boy, did Lucifer and others break many of those rules!]
We did hear whistling out in the forest, which we all avoided, believing it to be a trap of some sort. We must have broken one of the many "rules", then, including the one about being in the woods in the first place. Interesting... I wonder if there is any connection there between breaking the rules, and the entity that was hunting us and others?
[He assumes that creature was hunting them, anyway, and that the people who got killed instead were simply other prey animals in its eyes.]
"Silence is enforced in the library"... That would explain that, at the least.
