Y/N's POV
???

???: "well, Y/N...seems you got a bad hand in the game of life, huh?"

Huh...? where am I?

???: "you've forgotten everything...but your brain is at least AWARE of it...you know that stinging you feel in your head? That's it trying it's hardest to remember, yet...it doesn't work...but not to worry, I'm here to help you."

...why can't I move...? Or speak?

???: "remember...there is always a light at the end of a dark tunnel...You'll remember everything at some point, but...try to keep everyone alive if you can...they matter to you more than you can imagine...you were given a second chance at life, so don't waste it."

...?

???: "...but I bet you're wondering who I am, huh? Well...I'm-"

But before the entity could finish, I woke up...
...who was that? And wait...is this a dorm room?
...oh, right, we can't sleep on places outside of our dorm rooms, but wait...does that mean Junko carried me here?...and by herself?

Junko: "...oh, you're awake, Y/N."

I sat up from my bed, and stretched, yawning as I did so...but what a strange dream...

"Yep...thanks for carrying me here, by the way...I didn't remember the rules..."

Junko: "don't worry about it, you're pretty light, so it wasn't a problem."

"Right...by the way, how the hell did you get so strong in the first place?"

Junko: "o-oh, uh...self defense classes! You know, models like me could get attacked if we're alone, so that's why!"

"Hm...that's true..."

Junko: "well, I'm guessing you took self defense classes too, right?"

"Nope, I just copied moves from a game."

Junko: "...what?"

"...I copied moves from a game, Junko."
...
...

Junko: "wow, that's...pretty awesome, actually!"

"...eh?"

Junko: "I said it's awesome! Need me to say it again?"

"N-No..."

...she doesn't consider me weird?
I mean...I play videogames to the point I know the moves by memory...but, what should I do?...being praised is something I'm not really used to...sure, my fans and others who listen to me play compliment me, but hearing those words from Junko felt more...real, I guess?

Junko: "hey, Y/N..."

"Hm?"

Junko: "I forgot to tell you that we all agreed to meet up in the dining hall after we all explored, and it's almost time for us to meet, so let's go back to the dining hall."

"Oh, sure...that way I can apologize to Mondo."

Junko: "but...why apologize? He's the one that started it."

"Yeah, but still...I just feel like I HAVE to, or else I won't be able to rest easy..."

Junko: "...well, it seems I can't change your mind, so...go ahead, but if he tries to fight you again, just do that one move you did again...what was it called again?"

"The Tiger Drop, but I REALLY don't want to fight again...I just got lucky, that's all..."

Junko: "hm...I'd say it's more than just luck, but sure..."
