[ Today, Tower, you'll be receiving a very ominous post from an anonymous person. ]

Hello, tower!
I'd like to ask a really important question. How do you get rid of a skull permanently?

[ Oh.

Satou hesitates at the terminal. Staring down at the keyboard, thinking. She doesn't know this person... which doesn't mean it's okay to automatically think rude or unkind things about the person at the other terminal. ]

As in, a Halloween prop of some sort?

Unfortunately, no.

[priceofmagic]

How did you get a skull?

[obsessing]

Someone put it in my trunk.

[priceofmagic]

Is that so?

Why do you want to get rid of it?

[obsessing]

Because it's annoying. And it gets in the way.

[priceofmagic]

[ "Shouldn't you be more worried about whose skull it is?"

She wants to ask and pry, but manages some self control. ]

I don't think you should get rid of it.

[obsessing]

Why not?

[priceofmagic]

Even if they're dead now, it was a part of someone's head.

You should respect your dead.

[obsessing]

I don't think keeping it is really respecting it.

[priceofmagic]

You can't be mean to skull-san either.

You should bury it.

[obsessing]

[ SKULL-SAN.....

Satou, please. ]

In the graveyard?

[priceofmagic]

Yes!

Maybe we can find some flowers too.

[obsessing]

Maybe we can.

[priceofmagic]

[ Well, this is going well! ]

I can go find some flowers, probably. And we can find a nice place to bury it.

I wonder what to put on the tombstone? [ Skull-san. ]

[obsessing]

The name of the person's skull, I suppose.

[priceofmagic]

I guess you can't tell who it is based on just a skull...

It'll be sad not to give Skull-san a name...

[obsessing]

It's okay; I know her name.

[priceofmagic]

O-oh.

I'm sorry.

[ No wonder she wants to get rid of it. Having the skull of your friend must be so sad. ]

Don't worry. We'll take good care of her. So she can rest peacefully.

[obsessing]

[ If only she knew. If only. ]

Yeah.

[priceofmagic]

I'm Satou!

Kuroneko Satou.

I'll find flowers! And something for a tombstone... And!

um

I'll

[ "Make sure you don't get lonely!" is what she wants to say. Someone who has lost a friend, who knows that pain, can't be left alone. That would be too sad.

But Satou is too shy to say it. And someone like her would be the worst company for a nice girl like Yuno. ]

I'm Gasai Yuno. It's nice to meet you, Kuroneko-san.

[ Japanese! And so polite! Aaah, the pressure is on!!! ]

You too, Miss Gasai-san!

Do you want to meet up? I can help with everything! You don't have to do something so sad all alone!

[obsessing]

Don't worry. Yukki's going to help me.

Yukki?

[ She thinks a moment. Yukki... Yuno... Ahah! ]

Yukiteru-kun?!
