"[Name]! Sou! Wake up." Kanna's voice made [Name] open their eyes, only to find themself wrapped around Shin. They moved away immediately, sitting up properly as their face started feeling hotter than usual. Shin was definitely going to kill them for that. That is, if he found out.

"Morning Kanna." [Name] smiled softly, attempting to forget the incident as their eyes moved towards the girl as who returned the smile.

"Morning [Name]!" Kanna exclaimed with a nod. Shin slowly sat up, rubbing his eyes. He seemed to have been awoken by Kanna's exclamation. "Morning Sou!" Kanna waved as the guy waved back, slightly confused.

"Morning...?" He looked at the pair as a yawn left his lips.

"You look shit." [Name] replied, mimicking his previous comment to them as they managed to get a chuckle from Shin.

"Well thank you, Mx [Name]." He replied sarcastically, his eyes rolling. [Name] chuckled and stood up, grabbing their hoodie before putting it on.

"I need my morning coffee before anything else, you two get ready and let's go to the lobby." [Name] smiled softly, putting their shoes on. The greenblings nodded and also got ready.

Within a few minutes, the trio headed out of their room towards the lobby. When they entered the room [Name] walked over to the coffee machine in the corner, making themself some coffee, while thinking of a strategy to survive.

'I need to collect 4 more clear chips and make sure that Gin still has all his tokens and the tokens I gave him... '

[Name] was still in a daze as they gently added things they usually have when having coffee.

'I should also probably find a way for both Reko and Alice to survive, that way if we get to floors 4 and 5 we have more people to put in coffins for the banque- '

'no. '

'I need to stop thinking ahead. Just, focus on clear chips and Gin for now'

[Name] thought to themself, grabbing their now done coffee. Their fingers wrapped around the handle of the mug before bringing the cup to their lips, taking a sip of the warm beverage.

"Morning [Name]!" Hearing someone yell their name made our protagonist glance in the general direction of the owner of the voice. It was Joe. A surprise? Wouldn't say so. After all they did comfort him yesterday and they tried to bring him back to his room.

"Morning Joe, how'd you sleep?" [Name] questioned, giving the guy a small smile before taking another sip of their coffee.

"I slept pretty well." The gaudy guy chuckled, getting the attention of some people in the room.

"I'm glad to hear that." The office worker replied, the smile not leaving their face as they looked at him. Yet their mind still ran wild.

'I hate to say this but... I have a feeling that Ranger will make this main game even more fucked up...'

[Name] thought to themself, not letting their unease and sadness show as they sipped the coffee again.

"Also."

[Name] raised an eyebrow, looking at the guy. He was bowing to them...? [Name] took a second to process what was happening before they put the coffee mug on the counter and looked at Joe.

"Joe-"

"Thank you so much for staying by my side yesterday!" He exclaimed, his head low while his eyes were shut tight.
