It wasn't at all surprising when the younger girl was locked up for trying to bite her tongue off. She was strictly monitored to ensure it didn't happen again, leading Hotaka to become more antsy. Even though he wasn't allowed in the room, it definitely didn't stop him from pacing back and forth outside of the door. Sometimes, he could hear him mumble something over and over again before it went silent. Then it would repeat all over again like a loop.
Ryota wasn't doing well either. When it came to him, he did all he could to visit her, probably viewing himself as a solution to the issue at hand. Of course, it wasn't because of his lack of presence that she felt threatened. Rather, she would have claimed it was the opposite. After all, contrary to what he thought, she was fully capable of living without the presence of other people. In fact, she preferred it that way.
That was why, even though he didn't come to visit her as the other two did, she kept craving the sight of Shota. She had long since relied on him for a variety of things, but it only came to her after her failed suicide attempt that the most important aspect of their relationship was their mutualism. While he would get a companion and have a purpose beyond that of his noble lineage, she would, feasibly, be erased from the world. No one would come looking for her and she didn't have to fear whatever monsters - human or not - would try and harm her. Most of all, he understood her.
It wasn't like the kind of understanding that Ryota had about her snarky attitude or Hotaka's view of her based on her intelligence. Shota knew her on a biological level, knowing she was far different than she may have appeared. He could stop her attacks of insanity and could calm her when she snapped. That was not something that she could attribute to anyone else. More still, she knew he was giving up nearly all of his time and money into funding Beotia. Regardless of the woman's less-than-normal mental state, she knew her stuff.
When two entire days had passed, the younger girl was unable to wait any longer. Moving to the door, she forced it open, hearing the sound of Hotaka being knocked on his ass. He gave an "ow", but immediately stood up, shivering at the sight of her. She didn't know exactly what was racing through his mind, but she could make a guess. Chances were he was wondering if she was going in search of a weapon, whether to end her own life or someone else's. Either way, he made no move to stop her yet.
"Do you need me to - "
The male was cut off as she held her hand up, the militant meekly taking a step back and rubbing the back of his neck. She then moved to traverse the house, looking for whatever hidey-hole the redhead had constructed. The girl had to believe he had one, residing down there while observing Beotia. For all they knew, she could have tried to kill her "specimen" to dissect. That was another reason Shota was - though she loathed to admit it, based on her previous issues with affection (parental or otherwise) - close to her heart.
Shaking her head, she tried to dismiss the ideas of love from her mind, trying to tell herself it was out of the need to survive, not the want to indulge in emotional luxuries. Of course, she didn't really believe it despite her insistence on the subject. After all, the reason she was looking for him was to tell him she had chosen him; to urge him to let them return to how things were, perhaps with a few changes here or there.
Unfortunately, despite her and Hotaka's searching, the redhead was nowhere to be found, meaning that he had Beotia somewhere else. As expected, the front door was also locked, refusing to budge despite her rabid attempts. All the while, the purple-haired male watched her quietly, gnawing on his fingernail in his distress. She gave a small grin to him before muttering his name under her breath, the male suddenly feeling dizzy and faint. This time, with ease, she was able to break the door down, fleeing to her destination despite the male's weak protests.
