Tomoe Mami has been here?

[That's what the writing in the house she's currently in says, at least. Starting with her seems like Homura's best option in figuring out what on earth is going on aside from those word documents on the tablet.]

username2
seriously
you couldnt get even a little more creative

[perfero]

Username was taken.

[She just wanted the default, alright. She really doesn't care about this tablet.]

[mrcreamsicles]

so what
are you allergic to thinking of names
is this a cultural thing
are your species elders gonna get mad if you express a little individuality
the tall poppy gets the hammer
or however that went

[rubikscomplex]

nope
i carved her name into the wall
or wrote it
or pretended to be her
depending on how you found that name
figured i could screw with a few people if they turned up

[perfero]

[She's understandably skeptical.]

Then how did you learn about her?

[rubikscomplex]

she came to me in a dream
i'm psychic

[spoileralert]

You know Mami?

[perfero]

We attended the same school. She was a year ahead of me.

[spoileralert]

We travelled together for a long time. I'm sorry. She died, around four months ago.

not any more

[perfero]

I've heard. What happened?

[0thingsonmymind]

she died

*He doesn't know how, though.*

[He can't help the slight sad echo to his voice when he responds.]

Yeah, she was-- my friend.

[This won't be easy.]

I'm so sorry, but she died a while ago.

[perfero]

[She's sticking to text for the moment.]

Do you have any other information? How she died? When?

[armoured]

Yeah, she died on day fifty four, that's... over a hundred days ago now.

[Wow, so long.]

I don't know exactly how it happened, I wasn't with her at the time. Nobody was.

@jwilson; text; private bc go away house

[oh_negative]

Hi there, @username2. [Because Wilson's telephone voice game is strong even when he's texting.] I'm sorry that you had to find out about your friend in this way. Are you alright?

[perfero]

Yes, I'm fine.

[She's supposed to be dead anyway and really, Mami was never that good at staying alive in many of the timelines.]

Why is this private?

[oh_negative]

If you're sure. It's private because I'm here to specifically apologize for @hotstud_xxx. He's with me currently and I would rather him not eavesdrop on this conversation.

I'm Dr. Wilson, by the way. It's nice to meet you.

@determination, voice

[despiteeverything]

Was she your friend?

[Frisk isn't sure they recognize the name, but they're guessing that name appeared on the obituaries, or something. It's a very specific question to ask. If Frisk hasn't seen her friend around for a while though, then that probably meant...

Well. A similar sort of thing happened with Sans.]

[perfero]

We attended the same school.

[She can't really call Mami a friend anymore. All of them are basically strangers to her these days.]

[despiteeverything]

Still somebody you knew, then.

[Which... Frisk still imagines would have an impact.]

'm sorry.

[warriorscribe]

[He's read the replies so far, or at least skimmed them. Much easier in text, even if he has to wait until he's reached shelter for the night to do it.]

I'm afraid I don't know how she died, either, but if you must see her body, be careful. The places where bodies are kept cannot be sheltered in through the night, and many are difficult to reach and leave safely in the same day. There are maps available, please use them to plan ahead.

[He is a lot more composed in text, too, than he would be if he responded in voice.]

[perfero]

I see. What happens to people who stay the entire night?

[Mami's body isn't worth risking danger, so she'll remember this.]

[warriorscribe]

[He can dispense information. He can teach. No matter how distressing the subject, everyone has a right to be prepared.]

If you cannot prevent yourself from moving, you will be compelled to leave by an intense panic. Some have survived, but only in rooms other than where the bodies are stored. No one who locked themselves in with the bodies survived the night.

I cannot stress enough, be careful should you decide to do this.
