Junko left a while ago....but...

Kirigiri: Hey chicken-kun.

Naegi: Wrong guy. My nose doesn't bleed when a girl touches me.

Kirigiri: Can you not make references? You filthy otaku.

Naegi: The fact that you know it's a reference means you actually know about what I'm referring to.

Kirigiri: ...ahem...My favourite anime is One Pi*ce.

Naegi: uh...good for you? (///=_=)

I lie down.

Kirigiri: Sleeping already? I must say you trully are slothful. Um..."Ahh...My brain. It trembles....."

Naegi: If you're gonna make references the least you could do is act like the character!

I take out my handheld console.

Kirigiri: ....oh? You have one of those too?

Naegi: yeah yeah I get it "filthy otaku" give it a rest, I'm gonna start crying.

Kirigiri: oh!? Then I shall continu-

Naegi: You're horrible!

Kirigiri: fufu I merely jest.

She takes something out of her briefcase.

Naegi: You have one too?

Kirigiri: Precisely. I heard playing with friends is 10 times more fun, so-

...!? She called me...her friend?

Kirigiri: -seeing as I don't have any friends present and Junko already left, I'll have to settle for you. "Yorokobe Shounen."

Naegi: YOU CHOOSE NOW TO MAKE AN ACCURATE REFERENCE!? Forget it! I refuse!

Kirigiri: I'm going to pester you all night if you refuse.

She sits down next to my pillow.

Naegi: *Blush* H-Hey..!

Kirigiri: hm? ...ah. I guess now you can say "I got a girl on my bed once". See? You're not coming out of this empty handed. So come on play with me.

Naegi: .......*sigh* ...What do you wanna play anyway?

Kirigiri: Cuphead.

----Later----

Naegi: H-Hey! Revive me!

Kirigiri: Right!

Tap tap tap tap tap

Naegi: WE WON!

Kirigiri: Wow! We beat the game in 4 hours!

Naegi: Right!? It usually takes 10 hou-

Kirigiri: Usually I'd be done in 20 minutes if I was by myself. But thanks to you, being the heavy bagage that you are, I got to kill more time!

Naegi: .......why....why do you have to go out of your way to skin me alive?

Kirigiri: Because your reactions bring me joy. Be grateful.

Naegi: For what!? ......wait...20 minutes? You beat the record!?

Kirigiri: Yeah. I usually play cuphead while waiting for autopsies. Guess I got used to how the game works.

Naegi: ....? Autopsies?

Kirigiri: ....! N-Nevermind. Anyway I'm going to shower now. If I hear the door open I will make you eat bean sprouts through your nose.

Naegi: Yeah yeah.

I switch on the television.

Naegi: .....

Come to think of it....those bastards left me to be verbally abused while they went to the Arcade.

Naegi: .....

Pshhhhhhh

Naegi: ........

......

Pshhhhhhhhh

Naegi: ....*Blush* Has the shower always been this loud!?

Calm down Makoto Naegi! Remember this girl is ruthless! She enjoys watching you struggle! She's evil!

Kirigiri: Naegi.

Naegi: *Blush* YES!?

Kirigiri: It seems you've run out of shampoo. Do you have an unopened one by any chance?

Naegi: oh. Yeah, Hold on.

I take out a new bottle of Shampoo from the shelf.

Naegi: .... should I just leave it here-?

Creak

Kirigiri: much obliged.

Naegi: *Blush* ...N-No problem.

Slam

Naegi: .....Guess I'll have some Tea then.

________________

Kirigiri: ......

I dry my hair with the towel Naegi left me.

Kirigiri: Naegi, I'm done with the shower you can go ahead and- ...mm?

Naegi: .....

He's already asleep?

Kirigiri: .....

I switch off the television.

Naegi: .....

My my, you are completely vulnerable right now.

I pinch his nose.

Naegi: Ngaaah...

Kirigiri: .....

.........it's... actually kind of endearing how vulnerable he is. He reminds me of a little boy worn out after hours of playing outside with his friends.

Kirigiri: ....*Blush*... that's enough I guess.

I climb up the little ladder and reach my bed.

Kirigiri: ....Good night...Makoto.
