[ Honestly, Shuichi's about at his limit too. He needs to get his injury treated, or at least be allowed to collapse on the floor instead of trying to keep standing up, thank you. But... ]

W-Wait. I'm sorry... I know we've kept you for a long time, but there's one more thing I wanted to ask you to write, no matter what. It's... for Kawai-san.

[ He forces himself for a moment longer, wincing softly when his hand presses tighter against his side. But that's just how important this is. ]

She'd probably... be happy if she could have one last message from you. No matter what it was...

[ He should know. ]

[adsum]

[ There's that part of her that wants to scrawl "FUCK NATSUME" in large angry letters, but she can't risk Rika taking it the wrong way. What would she say, though... The anger in her expression dissipates as she thinks, pen loose in her hand, resting on the very tips of her fingers to slip at any moment.

But it doesn't fall. Chiaki renews her grip on the pen and turns so she's blocking the paper from view as if she's 1) not a ghost, and 2) not going to disappear in five seconds, allow her this little bit of privacy as she puts pen to paper and writes: ]

54.2N, 4

[ The pen clatters onto the table, rolls off onto the floor. She's gone. ]

[subaru can't help but think she's sort of cute when she's not out to get his best friend.

it's only for a little bit though, and once she disappears he lets out a breath. didn't think his first encounter with a ghost would be so... stabby, but that's really setting the precedent for this school, huh. he'll come over to nene and shuichi, pulling the latter to lean on him, don't fight his help. nene... has injuries too, and he looks worried at her, but at least she doesn't seem in danger of passing out.

like if she is he can probably carry them both but,]

Sai-chan, we'll handle things from here, so relax. [collapse buddy... it's okay. he's got you.] Nene, are you okay on your own...?

[mermaidcursed]

AH- Yeah-- I can help too, I've been learning things from Shinobu-nee, I should have acted sooner, I'm so sorry-

( her arms sting, of course, but compared to the imps? this is nothing. nene passes a glance towards the paper... what do those numbers mean? ... it's... it's not her business. she can take care of herself in a bit, shuichi needs help- )

C'mon, we should get out of here... Shuichi-kun, you really need to stop doing this.

[unsurely]

[ Despite everything else, Shuichi can't deny he's relieved. The last expression on Chiaki's face, the last thing she did before she vanished, wasn't something of anger and not an act of revenge. They were able to send her off with a thought about a friend she was important to. ]

Ah... I-It's not as if I wanted to get stabbed.

[ He finds it in him to joke lightly at Nene, more as an awkward attempt to comfort her than for anything else. If not for Subaru, he really might have lost the strength to stand by this point and collapsed, so he takes the offer of leaning on him without protest. Earlier when he moved to the gorinto... and now... it seems that Subaru's a lot more reliable than he makes himself look, necessarily. He feels like someone Shuichi can trust. It's a little... embarrassing... so his gaze wanders wildly in search of escape from the close proximity, but thankfully it does find something to settle on.

The paper... Subaru can likely read his intent when he moves -- Shuichi's going to trust him with that, at least -- so he tries to walk over with his assistance, until he's able to pick it up and pocket it. He'll give this to Rika later. ]

Thank you... Akehoshi-kun, Yashiro-san. You're right... we should move somewhere else. I'll be careful, I promise.

[ What he means by that is he'll try not to bleed on the floor and get them into void school if he can help it, but yeah anyway y'all feel free to drag him anywhere you want. ]

[starrypoint]

[subaru can read his intent, thankfully, and helps him over to the curious paper as he shakes his head at nene... as a note, subaru is a lot warmer than the average person, so enjoy that.]

Mm-mm, don't worry about it, Nene. I think Sai-chan would've been a lot worse off if you hadn't gotten involved in the first place.

[thrown herself at chiaki, getting in the way... after shuichi mentions moving, subaru has a good idea of how to make nene feel better too, and he grins a little to ease the mood.]

Actually~, I still get turned around a bit in this school, Nene, so mind leading the way? Anywhere's fine as long as you've got what you need to help him and yourself out. ♪
