[ of course she did. why wouldn't she? velvet is quietly sniffing at hinata's fingers, a little reserved but she seems to be warming up to him the longer he does that. ]
I'll go get the others. They're probably on a bed.
[Oh no, the poor Countess... he'd kind of assumed that the kitten would forget all about him without him being around, but maybe not. Or maybe his bed is just her favorite spot in the room. Who knows for sure with cats.
Speaking of sleeping, though...]
Hey... would it be okay if I slept next to you tonight?
[Maybe he doesn't remember the actual passage of time from being gone, but maybe it'll make her happy. And he definitely isn't one to turn down a chance to cuddle.]
[ she wonders why hinata trusts komaeda to not, uh, overreact. she assumes that means to not set up another bomb somewhere?? but she won't ask cause she's really not that nosy. ]
[He's just going to sit in the middle of the common area for now. The birdogs will come to him when they're ready.]
The same memories I regained a couple months ago; not just our school lives, but what happened during the Biggest, Most Awful, Most Tragic Event in Human History.
[As always, he just rattles off that entire name as one thing. Because that's what it's called?? Thanks Danganronpa.]
I still can't explain it, but it's like... we're caught up to the same time.
[Yeah, he gets what's unspoken there and just offers her a wry, humorless smile.]
That's what happens when you have someone with a flair for the dramatic set events in motion to destroy the known world. Enoshima Junko. If she ever arrives on this base...
[His voice gets very, very chilly all of a sudden, enough so that he barely sounds like Hinata anymore.]
[ hajime has never been a fan of violence, although she recognizes when you need to resort to it. she's even less of a fan of killing. but her opinions on the matter do not color her words; she's just stating a fact. she highly doubts URSULA would ever prioritize the life of one crew member over another, so this junko person would most likely not remain dead.
but the person who kills her would probably get in trouble. ]
I'll find a way. It would be to protect everyone on this base, after all.
[Surely URSULA can see the wisdom in that? He'd refrained from telling URSULA about all that shit because he didn't want the AI getting any ideas but listen. Junko arriving is the actual Worst Case Scenario and he won't let that happen.]
But... enough about that. For now, it's just a hypothetical situation, and... there's nothing that can be solved by dwelling on all the bad things that have happened. We just have to remember it, and move forward.

He just keeps his fingers there for Velvet to take her time examining, glancing back to Hajime again.]
Don't wake them up if they're sleeping... we'll have plenty of time to get introduced. Is the Countess around?

[ tbh she probably says this every single time hinata asks ]
no subject
But he just laughs, lips quirking into a bit of a wry grin.]
I think Komaeda will be okay. A lot of things happened for him in the time we were gone... I trust him not to overreact anymore.
Probably just tease us.

Mm, right. We'll just do our best and hope that won't ever even be an issue.
