[On one hand, he could keep quiet. But after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to make a post to the network.

It’s best if people are aware of this.]

Avoid reading the message on the 31st floor, or else you will die. Try to avoid the floor for the time being. Or leave as soon as possible without reading it.

If you did read it, I’m sorry.

(OOC: IMPORTANT. Minato can die on the spot mid-thread. Let me know when it's okay for him to leave the thread.)

[For a moment, Ryoji doesn’t dare to breathe either, trying to listen for Minato’s. He stands there, still holding the other boy, for a few moments, praying that what every fiber in his being is telling him, had told him from the moment Minato had collapsed, was wrong.

He can’t ignore the truth forever though. He knows that, and with a heavy sigh, he slowly lowers Minato to the ground. His friend still looks so peaceful, as if he’s just sleeping. Ryoji had seen that kind of face before, when Minato would rest his eyes for a few moments in between classes. Maybe that’s why he doesn’t leave. He stays knelt at his side, expecting that when Minato wakes up, he’ll want a friend to be there. He even takes off his scarf and uses it as a makeshift pillow, propping up the other boy’s head.

Of course, a worker unit eventually comes by to take the body. Ryoji lets it happen. He isn’t one to intervene with this. Perhaps when Minato is returned to his room, Ryoji can look after him then. For now, though, he just returns to his own room, completely calm, completely accepting… at least until his door closes and no one can see how sad he really is.]
