[ Merging isn't exactly what Hanako had planned, but this isn't his body so he lets Komaeda cling to Hikaru all he wants. ]

Don't worry about that! [ covers Clamor's sickle ears ] I'm ejecting all your souls, so you won't be heavy at all!

Do you reason such a thing will work on me in the first place?

[Genuine question.]

[sickles don't have ears????? so actually he just hears this loud and clear and eXCUSE ME]

I'm sorry, you're doing WHAT?!

No! Absolutely not! How is this going to help anyone?!

Excuse me, but I don't know if I'm exactly comfortable with that idea...

[her soul? when life was already so tenuous a thing here? her hand holds her cane all the tighter.]

Besides, I kind of need my body to get about...

If Clamor-san can be ejected, we can be ejected too, besides it's not bad... don't worry Adams-san, we have a professional with us!

( he doesn't know what clamor is saying, but... reassurance. )

[ Professional... yes. Hanako's a professional at kicking souls out of their bodies and possessing them, don't worry. ]

You want to save this kid, don't you? You can't just wander around with a butterfly net hoping to catch his soul. But we can draw them to us, if we know what he's like— and for that to happen, you need to be able to touch his heart and know him.

[ If this sounds like bullshit... don't mind it. It's a heart game. ]

If you're going to somehow eject Clamor from this form, be careful. We don't need him to die again.

[Because that one really angry sixteen year old will come put holes in Hanako otherwise, probably.

Also, no, just Clamor is the concern, the rest of you get vague shrugs in response. Sorry.]

Why are you blaming our help, you should make sure nothing happens to him — no, you all will.

( going to let go of hikaru, bc not like this. )

A plan?

Don't start with me, child.

[I'M SORRY WHEN I JOKED OFFHANDEDLY THAT HE'S BACK TO HOW HE WAS IN CHAPTER 10 I WASN'T FUCKING KIDDING]

That said, yes — let's come up with a coherent plan before we start getting our souls ejected, shall we?

... As long as there's still a tether, it should be fine. Completely severing a soul from its body isn't so simple. The same goes for binding spells like the one on this sickle. [which means he is, reluctantly, in some amount of agreement with this plan]

Hanako. What should we do when we get there? [wherever...... "there" is]

I got it all covered! Once you're there, you'll want to find out as much about the kid as you can: figure out his core or his essence. When we've found as much as we can, you'll snap right back into your bodies as long as they're still here! No worries! It's perfectly safe; just ask Yashiro.

[ do not actually ]

Sir yes sir.

( looks towards hikaru, tapping their shoulder. ) Did you hear? He said don't start with him, child.

( anyway. )

We aren't sure what we're up against... so why not just throw ourselves into the fray, and work as we go! As long as we have hope, we can stick together and be successful for Ito-kun!

"As long as they're still here."

Do we have a method to ensure that will be the case?

[ ........... ]

We can lock the door?

I don't think that's what she meant...

Noah should be waiting near the door... I know he wouldn't let anything happen to me, so I'm sure he'd intervene if someone tried to move us. [so they should probably tell him they're about to eject all their souls from their bodies

...]

Should we leave a note? [NOAH WOULD NEVER LET THIS PLAN FLY] Can one of you do that for me? And let Helena know what I said.

i told you where i was, can you come visit me... i'm being attacked. :(

( not even going to say he did that, hinata and noah will just be at the door sooner or later. thanks for the handwaves kings... )

[That is... really unsettling to watch, Hanako possessing Hikaru. Can that just... happen anytime? Hh.]

Even with a locked door... h-how do we know something won't try to take them?

[IT'S ON HIS MIND after that display just now and the whole reason they're even trying to save Narumi in the first place. It's free real estate while they're unattended, right?]

M-maybe we should get Meng Yao... or Nene. [Just to keep an eye on things, although he's reluctant to involve Nene if things might get dangerous.]

It's fine, Hinata-kun is on the way.

( no need to point at his pda, because shin's observant enough to see how komaeda was probably clicking, and this is to reassure both helena and shin since they have their reservations. he recalls everyone who is in the room, so he switches up this time: )

Hiyori-kun, you can trust him... he's just like you, a normal human being who can scream and yell when afraid... people will hear him.

( besides, they don't need an army, and also... )

Hinata-kun can bring a friend, or two.

...Okay, if Hajime's truly coming, I'll trust in that.

[you don't nearly die in a metaphor multiple times without coming out kind of ride or die. Hinata is someone she trusts a lot with, so to make sure her body and the rest are intact? he can do that.]

We are not getting Yashiro.

[ This is maybe not a plan Hanako told Nene much about ]

... didn't you just say we could ask her about how safe it was?

[BUT APPARENTLY NOT SAFE ENOUGH TO TELL HER WE'RE DOING IT??]

[Well now he's definitely doing it. This look is at you both as he texts, having stepped out of Komaeda-range near Helena. You can phone a friend but he can't, huh?]

@ Nene: Are you busy? There's something we might need you to look at in Sun 4.

[ Gonna eject Shin's soul first whenever we get to it ]

If someone doesn't feel comfortable with this, they're welcome to stay? Hanako-san, I don't mind going next.

[ Hanako is trustworthy, well Nene trusts him, and she's reliable. so everyone can Stop Yelling. Becoming a ghost...sounds kind of exciting. Like, this is some real action manga stuff!

She frowns down at the sickle in her hands that Noah was really nice to let her borrow! ]

Clamor, Sou, lets not be negative and believe in him! Hanako has only been a reliable friend to everyone, right?
