The atmosphere grows heavier by the day. There is blood smeared around the school by students with injuries, and each time a character sees it they're struck by a sense of vertigo and unreality. The world seems to blur and spin at times, and at times they can see flickers of the other school in front of them before it disappears.
Patches of shadows will begin to appear around the entire right wing of all floors, including the locker area including the rooftop. Throughout the month the areas in which they appear will continue to expand, beginning to encompass pieces of the left wing. They appear at random at times, suddenly below ones feet, and those who can see that the floor has disappeared will find themselves falling - further and further until it suddenly stops, and they find themselves right back where they started.
Curiously, those who cannot see do not suffer from these effects. Instead, they may notice the biting cold more prominently, or hear and feel the loud sound of rotten and and broken floorboards beneath their feet in the school and barren landscaping outside. The school supplies they hold might seem to have fallen apart, the walls feel as though a fire has burnt them up and rotted them out. But it always disappears within moments - a few seconds, a trace of their hand.
In the forest, stairs appear here and there. If one chooses to walk up them, they seem to go to no where, and if they continue on long enough they'll find themselves somewhere else entirely - most off in the Mirror Room or Summoning room, but occasionally it might be a classroom or somewhere else entirely. The void will have an inverse effect, showing bits and pieces of the normal school, and if characters aren't careful they wall onto what they think is solid ground only to start falling into the true void.
Mirrors show different scenes from time to time. They may see empty scenery from back home, an older version of the school, or otherwise of the other school. If one turns their back on a mirror, they may find that something will reach out and try to grab them. These are easily shaken off, but they will be pulled against the mirror until it shatters or their body is crushed otherwise. It's as though reality itself were being eroded at by some unknown force.
Nagito Komaeda is more susceptible to the above effects, and they are more likely to occur in his presence. It's probably just his luck.
Nene Yashiro will be less susceptible to the above effects, and find that the shadow students tend to avoid her. However, she may find herself feeling ill, or struggling to recall things. At times it seems as though something is eating away at her memory, replaced by a strong enter the void. This effect is temporary.

Hinata Hajime's body will be found in the mirror room resting in front of the mirror. He looks peaceful, as though he were merely sleeping. The mirror in front of him has shattered. There is blood on the glass fragments. There are no signs of malpractice, but until the body anyone with supernatural sight will be able to see a group of shadow figures in a loose circle around him. Passing through one will leave them cold and numb, but they will not intervene with efforts to take the body. Those who visit the void on or after this date may think they see him int he void, but the sight flickers out to reveal it to be one of the shadow figures. The closer one was to Hinata, the more likely this is to occur.
There are additional messages left scattered across the clock tower:
".ɘɿoʇɘd ɘɿɘʜ ƚ'nƨɒw yɒwllɒʜ ƨiʜT"
".owƚ ƚɘǫ bnɒ ,ɘnin oƚ ɘviʇ bbɒ I"
".oɿɘz ,ɘvlɘwƚ ,ɿuoʇ yƚnɘwT"
Chiaki Nanami will find a note placed on her pillow:
"Take care of him."
Nagito Komaeda will find a copy of Confessions sitting on his desk at the student store. In one of the pages toward the back a note has been tucked inside:
"Take care of her."
Both notes match Hinata's handwriting.

The sound of turning cogs and the ticking of the clock grows louder, then comes to an abrupt stop. The hands continue to move with the time, but no sound will be heard. It will no longer chime on the hour.
At some point during the day, twelve students will go missing.

✽ Desecration of the body will not be allowed. Hinata's player was kind enough to allow use of their character to progress the plot, so please be respectful.
✽ The shadowy figures will appear more frequently where there is blood, fresh or otherwise, and/or mirrors.
✽ As with last month, characters who are isolated will find that they are more susceptible to being followed by the figures, and it may take longer interactions to dispel them completely.
✽ Items from the student shop that ward off supernatural creatures will aide in keeping the shadows from getting too close at first, but their effectiveness will wear off the longer a character is followed. They have a stacking effect.
✽ The counselor is only available to discuss contracts and possible deals this month. He seems to be in deep thought about something during discussions.
✽ Students will notice rumors are spreading more frequently, both about the school and player characters.
✽ Please stay tuned for additional updates toward the end of the month.

[ he remembers a good chunk of that conversation, and the maid outfit too. she's slowly merging with the rest of the group no matter how hard she tries to fit in without being unusual.
he lifts a hand to dismiss her wry tone, laughing easily. ]
Now what are you going to do to get their attention? They looked afraid of you, like they saw a ghost...!
[ this is kind of like watching a soap opera in action. he crosses his arms, looking down the hall where the students are quick in their steps to get away. ]
You made your plan sound too risky.
[ as much as he wants to laugh about that too, he holds it in. ]
no subject
[Basically, she does not currently believe she's a complete standout, but now that this gossip is happening...
Kind of pisses her off.
Why couldn't she have had normal rumors about her? Like maybe people think she has a crush on someone--actually, scratch that, she doesn't want that, either.]
And what kind of "risky plan" is just wanting to talk to someone, huh? Seriously.
no subject
he's just not going to answer that. ]
Well, aside from bumping heads, it'll do no good if you scare them! They can just lie about what they said.
[ especially if inaba comes up on them a second time demanding answers, and all they have to say is a quick fib that matches up to the big deal they're making it.
maybe they will say it's romance? ]
You're better off following incognito! ☆ Just like those spy films.
no subject
[She was being polite and cordial until they walked off! Her annoyance and unfiltered words came after they were out of earshot.]
Well, they're not going to speak about it anymore now.
no subject
[ for her headstrong personality and temper, he never thought she'd give up so easily.
does she only act high and mighty to the transfers alone...? ]
no subject
Why would they? Because of what happened, they'd be more on their guard and less likely to talk about me, specifically. That doesn't mean I've given up -- just means I need to push other avenues. I'm not stupid, after all.
no subject
[ actually the maid attire gives her an advantage, but she needs to cover her face than anything else. the awareness of the other students here would be difficult to trick, but maybe inaba can give them a run for her money.
midori keeps the pills in hand before crossing them behind his back, hiding them from view. ]
Incognito! ♡ I'll even help you.
no subject
The only moment when she wishes that she could become someone else right now. But she'd rather stay herself and go into normalcy instead of having to deal with that crap a second time.
...]
Why?
no subject
[ she has to have a bit of fun in her body, but if not that... ]
It's best to know what they're spreading about you, and if you can stop it before it gets around!
[ he glances down the hall of where they went. ] I know the perfect outfit if you'd give it a chance.
no subject
[He is right that if there are various rumors about her, she probably should learn about them and snap them shit, however; as much as she hates to admit to it.]
no subject
[ he says this like he knows, and it's because he does. ]
You can trust me, it's a pretty simple outfit.
[ midori takes a step forward to see if she'll follow, he has no reason to make her look like a fool when she can do that on her own without him. he is only trying to be of assistance because this seems easier to deal with than what everyone makes it out to be. ]
no subject
[Just putting it out there without a single shred of hesitation.]
So I'll handle this on my own.
no subject
[ he stands, looking at her now because it's quite odd to see someone handle it, but fail the first time. ]
But if you have another way of doing so, what do you have in mind?
[ even though his method would have been easier, they can go the hard way if she has something. ]
no subject
[She's cutting this conversation short, turning on her heel to leave.]
no subject
[ he blinks, sure enough she did say that odd piece and hoped that he didn't hear. ]
Is there a reason you won't take help? I feel as if my idea will help you.
no subject
no subject
[ honest, a belief that's easily decided. he came here to make sure she was doing okay physically, and she seems to be doing well to the point that she doesn't need any medication. mentally, that bull stubbornness is keeping her going. ]
Good luck! ✰
[ midori is hardly impressed as someone who knows how to speak to others via social skills, but what is there to be gained if she can't work with someone towards the goal that she's after? the answer to her problem is quite simple (to him), and so maybe she'll see it on her own in due time.
he's going to walk in the same direction as inaba, not to converse, but just to go back in the direction that he came from while glancing at the pills he brought. there are other students that can take advantage of this that he should check on. ]
