Is anyone up at this time? If so, you'll notice the power flickers—sorry if you were working on anything and hadn't saved in a while. This goes for the entire school, but it only lasts a few minutes... It's probably nothing to worry about.

04/12 06:00

The sun breaks on another beautiful day at Yogen High School. The birds are singing, the weather is clear, and several rooms seem to be a little messed up. While there isn't any immediate smell of blood when one steps into the entrance-way—a relief for those who might remember October's terrible killings—something is definitely... off.

Those who live in Star 4 or who make it their business to visit the cooking room before school starts will probably be the first to know:

It's going to be a long morning.

truly the only time we wanna hear these words.

before they can move him to the side and wait for medical help, though, can Helena check his pockets and loot him? he gets these back when he stops dying

[adsum]

Yes she can!

In Komaeda's pockets, she finds the following:

• His PDA (which, if she unlocks it with his finger like he's done to so many other people, will reveal plenty of merit points)
  
• An adderstone
  
• A blue flame lighter
  
• Hope fragments (2)
  
• His hacking gun that hooks to the back of his pants under his jacket
  
• A key with a white cat keychain
  
• A cellphone
  
• A multitool
  
• A map of the forest folded up with an x marks the spot
  
• A broken mirror shard
  
• A claw hand covered in a white towel, and finally
  
• A satchel with something in it, but she'll have to open it to find out

That's it for Komaeda's body, thank you for looting him.

[decrypter]

thank you coma-eda for your drops. you'll get them back when you recover.

she will open the satchel though, both to check and to put the rest of his stuff in it for easy carrying

[adsum]

The satchel is full of teeth.

aight

HOLD ON NOAH HAS HEALING MAGIC YOU DIDN'T FORGET HE'S BEEN LEARNING THIS DID YOU???

HE'S CASTING HIS SPARKLY CELESTIAL HEALING MAGIC DON'T DIE HYUNG

[adsum]

Thank god Noah's here, if I let Natsume come heal him he'd do it just to kick him back into a grave.

Anyway, nothing happens. Comaeda stays just the way he is.

[silentabyss]

Does Noah... have to remove the crystal again to make the healing go brr...

wait holy shit I just remembered noah has a healing potion in his inventory. he's going to leave, go get that from his room, come back, remove the crystal from the komaeda, and use it. it should close all of ko's wounds

[adsum]

He DOES have to remove the crystal to make the healing go brr! Which is completely obvious after he grabs the healing potion, returns, pulls the crystal from Komaeda (who starts choking on his own blood again), and forces him to drink the healing potion while he's choking I guess. It'll work out.

Komaeda is healed, but he's out like a light; at the very least though, he has a pulse and he's breathing, so it's safe to assume he's okay now.

The crystal that had been keeping him alive, on the other hand, turns dark and cracks apart once Komaeda is safe, rendering it unusable.

[silentabyss]

crosses the healing potion out of my inventory i KNEW i'd need that one day but i thought I'd need it for Noah's dumb ass NOT KOMAEDA'S

Noah gives Komaeda's unconscious body a little hug and breathes a sigh of relief. sucks about the crystal...

as for Add... Noah bumbles his way over there to see what's been going on.

[adsum]

A lot.

The only thing that hasn't been checked on him is his pockets. Would Noah like to check them?

[silentabyss]

yeah hold on I'm gonna slam over there for organization's sake--

[samuraiwomen]

did sara get a look at the crystal before noah destroyed it? did it look like add's life crystal? DO WE KNOW WHERE THAT IS? PLEASE GOD WHERE IS ADDS SOUL!?!

[adsum]

I think these are technically things you can decide on your own, Annie, based on if you think Sara was close enough to see the crystal when it got tossed to the side. I assume Noah would've tossed it to the side after he yanked it out Komaeda's mouth, that's what I would do.

If she's seen Add's life crystal, she can probably figure if it was too. The crystal that was in Komaeda's throat was originally pink and glowy, just like the crystalline stuff on his neck; if that matches up to what she knows it looks like, then good! (Because it should.)
