’…are you fucking kidding me?’

Rebecca stared at her phone, having taken it out while she was reading a book under a beach umbrella. Irritated, she snapped her phone shut and tossed it back in her bag, going back to her novel. She couldn’t hear a damn thing while she was reading, as her headset was also in her bag, and that was the way she liked it.

She ignored the growing panic with ease. If NeetNeet couldn’t be bothered to wait until they all got back to campus, or even guarantee the one they chose would be the one to actually live, the blonde couldn’t be bothered either.

She was so tired and honestly was looking forward to graduation. At least she had a place waiting back home. Yosuke was waiting and worried far more than should be healthy. She had reassured him she was fine and would be coming home right after graduation on the dot, she promised.

Exams and finals were delayed for a mandatory beach trip?! How was she going to keep her visa if she couldn’t take her exams?! Rebecca could feel the panic rising in her chest.

…Maybe she should just take the visa revoke and go home? But that would reflect badly on her record and she’d never be able to get into a university in Japan at this rate!

She equally did and did not want to go home, and panicking was doing her no good. Anyone approaching would find a curled up hoodie on a beanbag chair in the dorm lounge.

Where were you at the time of death? 

“Wh-really? I’m 95% sure I was doing class assignments at the time of the first two, and I was in class for Narukami’s and on an psych assignment binge Chitanderu’s. I need to keep up my grades so my visa isn’t revoked.”

Do you have any personal relations with the victims thus far?

“While Narukami looks almost exactly like someone I knew back home, I don’t know him personally, nor any of the victims. I feel bad that I wasn’t able to help with Chitanderu’s, but would anyone want the help of someone who had been been awake for several days and could barely walk right? I mean really.”

Have you written / posted on the gossip wall? If so, what? 

“I have not and I refuse to. I’ve only looked at it in case there’s something significantly important. However, I’ve been unable to do that recently because someone had the bright idea to induce massive eye strain by overlaying shittons of text over what was already there. So I haven’t looked at it in a couple of days.

If anyone has anything to say about me, however, they can tell me to my face. Shittalking people under the cover of anonymous writing is cowardly and I doubt I’ll hear worse than what I had to deal with back home.”
