[And if anyone happened to want to find Kidou or stumbled upon him, he's at a terminal down one of the dorm halls. A bit of blood is splattered across the keyboard thanks to his coughing fits and he's either having one of those said coughing fits or just sitting on the seat in front of the terminal, hugging his knees to his chest as he waits for replies.

Also said gem in question? It's..... well, it's not black.

just going to sickly placehold here okay DON'T JUDGE ME

[nomessiah]

Where are you?

[ it would help if you said who you were first, urotsuki, anon text doesn't help any with all of this.. but it's already pretty difficult to use common sense for her, and it's even more difficult when both her mind and body are starting to screw up. ]

i would never judge you bby

[sayakawashere]

at a computer dorm floor 2

[jasonsaloser]

<sub>[...And then the worst case scenario came true.

Sayaka had to try three times to read the whole post through, blurred as her vision was - she had to focus on a wobbling word at a time in order to make it stay legible enough to understand. She rubs at her eyes for about the tenth time, and tries to think of what to do.

As long as Enoch sees this, he can help. What could she do if she went there but the real help was too late..? Use hissatsu on the Witch? Those memories just don't feel clear enough, and she's not sure she should embrace them, either... it feels like prying, like invading somewhere she shouldn't be. Technically, that is what's happening.

..There was still one Grief Seed left. There was something bad about that one, though. It couldn't even clean much more without being dangerous, but that wasn't the only reason, even if that reason escapes her right now--

It was still worth a shot.]</sub>

Kidou. Think about the happiest thing you can, okay? Help's coming.

_{[Gosh that's about the worst advice in the world, like that ever worked for her, but..!]}

[sayakawashere]

im trying but its hard

[It's really hard.. especially when you're just remembering really terrible things and for some reason you just felt absolutely awful today like you shouldn't even be alive...


But ok he'll try... happy thoughts.....]

im so sorry sayaka i promised i wouldn't let this happen

[jasonsaloser]

<sub>[At least it's not far to her dorm and wherever Kidou is - same floor, and Sayaka knows where all the terminals are by now.

..She's about to take off when she sees the reply.]</sub>

think about seeing haruna again. think about urotsuki. just the best parts, and hold onto those. hold on to being kidou.

_{[..being Kidou would be better than being Sayaka today, for some reason she's really certain of. Something about the date. ..not sure what.]}

[dreamingmessiah]

How do the rest of us help?

-Urotuski -Aleph -Urotsuki or Aleph -Aleph

[homurosa]

I too am looking for him.

[She does not know why, or who he even is, but she knows it has something to do with her gem, which is going dark as well.]

[sayakawashere]

alright...

[Haruna.. he hasn't seen Haruna for a while, has he? He wanted to see her again, he really did, but at the same time he felt like he didn't really care... like she was just some stranger. But she wasn't, she was his sister...


Ugh, all these mixed feelings were confusing.]

I won't let it get any darker from here on, I promise...

[Yes Kidou just calm down for now... just calm down and think about how you're turning 15 today, that's exciting, right?


Wait.

What?]

[sayakawashere]

i don't know

[sayakawashere]

are you okay

[dreamingmessiah]

Do you want other people to be there with you? Maybe that would help a little bit.

[sayakawashere]

maybe.. if that was ok with you

{Wow he's never felt so childish before... definitely going to be super embarrassed after this.]

[dreamingmessiah]

I'll be right there.

[Dorm floor two. Aleph hurries as fast as his legs can take him, because he does't want anything bad to happen to his boyfri anyone. He doesn't know what he'll do when he gets there, but maybe his presence will be a comfort.]

[homurosa]

My gem is black

[Rosa stops and looks at the screen. When had she learned how to text?]

[sayakawashere]

[And when Aleph arrives, Kidou's still just sitting in front of the desk with his knees to his chest. When he hears the sound of footsteps getting near, he looks up and offers the other a small smile.]

Thanks.. for coming...

I'm sorry if I'm being any trouble....

[dreamingmessiah]

You're not any trouble. I definitely don't have anything to do that's more important than making sure you're okay.

[sayakawashere]

Thank you. [He starts getting out of the chair so he can hug Aleph but then he remembers that he wasn't Urotsuki whoops and sits back down.]

Sayaka told me that if I made sure I wasn't depressed, the gem would stop darkening... [He lifts it up to show Aleph the gem on his finger.]

But if it got too dark... something "worse then death" would happen. [And that is what scares him right now. He doesn't want something worse then death happening to himself, and definitely not while he was in someone else's body. And unluckily for him... he's the type of person who ends up thinking of the worse situations which only makes him more scared and upset........]

[dreamingmessiah]

[That sounds... really, really bad.]

And Enoch can come fix it. So don't worry - I'm sure he'll see the network post soon. Worrying about it won't make things any better.

[sayakawashere]

[He nods.]

I hope he can fix it.

[Sakuma wakes that morning with the feeling that today is important somehow-- or rather, important to someone important to him-- although he can't put his finger on what exactly. Still, despite the confusion, coughing and blurry vision, he ventures out to look for that someone. Why, he doesn't know exactly.

As he walks, he keeps a hand on the wall to keep himself steady. When he spots a blue haired girl, suddenly he remembers. Excitedly, he calls out;]

Sayaka! Hap--

[Wait, what's he doing? That's not Sayaka and he's not Madoka. When he realizes that, he notices that the person before him doesn't look too well.]

K-kidou.

[Yeah, that's right. This is Kidou right now.]

Kidou, are you alright?

[sayakawashere]

[He doesn't respond immediately, until he realizes that he was being addressed. Right, he was Kidou, not Sayaka.

He lifts his head and opens his mouth to say hello but before he can speak, he's hit by another coughing fit and he covers his mouth with his hand, a little bit of blood dripping down said hand after a few really rough coughs.]

[magicalsoccer]

[Immediately Sakuma is at his side, holding onto his shoulders.]

Kidou!

[His brows are furrowed tightly. For once, his mind and the body's memories seem to agree in that he should be worried about this person.]

[text]

[warriorscribe]

I know where Kidou is now, but where are you?

*He will probably wind up running to this other person after he's found Kidou.*

[sayakawashere]

[He takes his hand away from his mouth once the coughing has subsided and stares at the blood on it for a moment before looking over at Sakuma, not bothering to try to muster a smile.]

Yo Madoka... [...wait]

... Sorry, Sakuma.

*Reading other threads gave him an idea of where to go, at least, so he didn't waste time asking. After asking the other one where they were, that is.*

This is Enoch. I will be there soon.

*And no sooner had he sent that than he got up and ran for the stairs - at least he was on the third floor. He slowed to a jog as he passed the terminals, slowing and turning into the nook he sees Kidou in.

For a second, all he sees is the blood and Kidou's posture. He really was in bad shape...and he catches the dark glint on his (Sayaka's) finger...*

Kidou, I'm here. Quickly, let me see your soul gem.
