✽ The silence has lifted once more, but the school remains relatively silent. The chatter and footsteps of students moving through the halls won't be there for some time. The Principal's office remains deadly cold and frozen, but if anyone is brave enough to try and push it open, they'll find that it won't open. The door seems to be stuck, almost as though there's something heavy pressed up against the door.

I'm crying the way he never got to stab anyone.

There is nothing written on it or on the floor. He rolled a 17, so he will be have a clean break to find a locked that's been personalized in a cute manner. There's a couple textbooks, a cute sushi cat magnet set, a pocket mirror, and salty snacks such as nuts and chips. Everything is covered in a layer of dust.

My link broke, so here are the magnets.

[commences]

He's going to take them, is there anything written on the textbooks, like what year level this dummy locker is owned to?

I feel so bad, he messed up the layer of dust.

[adsum]

Enjoy your new magnets Komaeda! Between this and the teeth, he's doing well in the petty thievery department. The notebook contains cute handwriting, with little hearts and other doodles on the margins. It seems to be standard notes and problems. The owner of this locker appears to be a second year, and the second notebook will reveal that they're bad at math.

[commences]

He's going to look at the corner of the pages, get the romance because he's a sucker for love.... sighs. He'll close that, look at the pocket mirror. :(
Going to check inside of the door of the locker to make sure nothing's there. It's pretty dusty.
...Also, he'll pick up the snacks to go throw them away because they're probably fucking stale, Komaeda's doing a service.

[adsum]

It's okay, don't be sad Komaeda. This was one of Shin's students. She is safe at home now thanks to your efforts. She's repaying you with magnets and notebooks. There is nothing but dust on the insde of the locker door.

I'm assuming he's going to just use one of the trash cans near the lockers, so when Komaeda goes to throw the snacks out, he will find a shred of paper near the trash can.

SHE'S FAILING MATH AND SHE TAKES A COMPUTER CLASS? Komaeda has a lot to think abt... dusty...

Going to dump this away because cleaning comes first... Hm. HM. Picks up the paper, what's that about? Anything neat about it before he throws it away?

[adsum]

Why do you think she failed his class despite him doing the easy mode test? Look Komaeda, this student had heart and cute cat magnets, leave her alone. npcchan is my daughter now.

It seems to be fragment of a letter. It's crudely torn, as though somebody ripped it up before throwing it away. Its' hard to make sense without the rest of the pieces, as there's only a few words, but the name "Arisu" is near one of the ripped edges.

[commences]

STOPPPP SHE WAS BRANDED FOR FAILURE THE MOMENT SHE CAME sighs, okay me when i failed chemistry. she just like me fr.

Oh... He's going to kneel down to pick up the piece examine it — front to back — then he'll look at the trashcan to see if there's any stray pieces in there too. What I'm saying is, he'll dig to put them together like a puzzle... what is DIS hunty!

[adsum]

ME sigh compsci-chan did her best... Maybe Ori will let me make her an NPC next year so she can imprint on Shin and maybe not fail his class next time.

It will take a bit of time, but Komaeda's Ultimate Luck doesn't fail him. He'll be able to retrieve the pieces of of the note and stitch it back together. There are crinkles in it where somebody gripped it too tight. It's a short and straightforward letter addressed to Hiro asking him to meet at locker 253 to discuss Maya's death because there's something that he "deserves to know." It is not signed.

[commences]

PLEASE PRAY AND STOP IMPRINTING IM GOING INSANE NGLLLLL that's cute, i'll kill her to gain shin's affections.

he's going to smooth out the crinkles with a small hum... if it's thrown away here, then he made it to 253? someone caught him on the way coming or going, but he sees...

the 253 hiro had huh... well luckily komaeda has sent some unfortunate fool to miyuki's locker and made the cut out of 202 just like the 253 one so he might as well keep up the good will.

going to go to the third floor - second year level, komaeda's going to hiro's desk and drop all shreds of the paper around it. they'll find hope through this, and even komaeda's giving a helping hand, just to see them working together and trying hard... sighs. he's pretty excited!

addendum/correction

[adsum]

The note here was missing the piece for the locker number (found on Hiro's body,) which Komaeda added to the letter to complete it before dropping it at Hiro's desk. He made a second copy of the torn piece, so there was one in Hiro's pocket and another left with the note at his desk.

[commences]

He's going back to Hiro's body, ripping out a sheet of paper with his prosthetic hand so he can write "202", making sure its smudged and everything. This is for the second person who comes and checks the body.

[adsum]

[commences]

Also, I think Hiro's thawed out, I'm stealing all his teeth.

[adsum]

I mean he's right for that though.

He may steal all of Hiro's teeth.
