"You sure you'll be fine on your own here Ken?" Makoto asked Ken as he brought some boxes down from his room. Ken was watching TV with Koromaru while drinking coffee. He seemed to not hear the question so Makoto raised his voice a bit, "Ken... You'll be fine on your own here in the dorm right?" Makoto got his attention as he said yes. Makoto felt relieved knowing Ken would be fine on his own. Junpei was having the worst time trying to move his things. Chidori wasn't helping him either. Instead, she kept talking about how much time they would get to spend together while at the Kirijo mansion in Tokyo. "I thought you two weren't coming to Tokyo with us?" Makoto asked. Junpei told him that he begged Mitsuru to let him tag along. She gave him a very difficult task, she told him that he had to organize his entire room when he moved in he had to keep it organized the entire time he was with them. Yukari wasn't very thrilled at the thought but if it meant Junpei wouldn't be a slob she agreed to him tagging along. They had to hurry as the moving truck had arrived and Mitsuru began having her servants load her things. Makoto had the easiest time since he didn't have too many belongings. But because he and Yukari lived together he still had to help her move.
"Thanks again for helping move my half of the room Makoto. I wonder what the mansion will look like." Yukari was very thrilled about going to Tokyo. She had talked about the move non-stop since Mitsuru told them they would be moving in with her four days ago. Akihiko showed up to the dorm to help everyone out with moving. Shinjiro and Kotone had their room already finished while Junpei and Chidori took the longest. "You think Aigis will also be joining us? Probably right. Since she is technically a robot for the Kirijo group." Makoto shook his head. Yukari then got told exactly what he meant.
"She as much a human now as any of us. She'll be joining us because she wants to help Mitsuru out. Not because she's her property. But yeah I get what you mean. Just glad most everyone is gonna still be together." Makoto was very happy about the move too. He wanted to leave the dorm behind more than anyone realized. His reason he kept secret though, he wanted to leave so that he was certain that he was free of the curse of fate. Being forced to relive the same life over and over again hurt him on a massive mental scale. Yukari was the only persona he felt could keep him sane since he first had to experience constant loops in time. Every time he died while fighting in Tartarus he'd have to rewind back, every time he would mess up an interaction he'd have to rewind time. It strained his mental psyche as he had to repeat the same things dozens if not hundreds of times over. But he managed to break the loop when Yukari and Kotone lead SEES into the Central Universe to kill Nyx's true heart. It caused a collapse in the multiverse where Makoto constantly gave up his life to seal Nyx away. With Nyx being dead all across the multiverse nobody had to live in fear or desire of Death.
"Welcome to your new home Mr. Yuki." One maid said as Makoto and Yukari entered the mansion. It was just as enormous on the inside as it was on the outside. Makoto was getting his things unpacked in his room when Yukari walked in. "Sorry that I'm late, tried hauling everything in all at once. Most of this stuff is really heavy surprisingly. Anyways this is our room huh? Looks beautiful." Makoto set his things down as he walked over to help Yukari. Some servants soon came in to help unpack the boxes and bags for Makoto and Yukari. The work went fairly quickly, as the servants helped organize their room. Makoto laid down on the bed right after the servants left the room. Yukari laid next to him.
"You know something Makoto? You've never told me when your birthday is. Why is that?" Yukari asked. Makoto realized he actually never celebrated his birthday. Not since he was a child and his parents were still alive. "I've never actually thought about it until now, I never really celebrated it since my parents passed. It's coming up soon too. It's March 9th. So in about three days I'll be 19." Yukari was astounded at the news. She got up from the bed and walked towards Mitsuru's room. Along the way, she passed by Akihiko whose room looked more like a gym than any normal room. Junpei's room was already a mess as he was on the ground struggling to unpack and organize all his things. Chidori just stood there laughing with him about something. Then Yukari passed by Kotone's room where she was being helped by Shinjiro with unpacking. Once Yukari reached Mitsuru's room she knocked on the door.
"Oh... Takeba, is something the matter? You don't need extra assistance with getting settled in do you?" Mitsuru said once she opened the door. Yukari shook her head as she informed Mitsuru about Makoto's birthday. "His birthday is in three days!" Mitsuru cried out in surprise. Everyone stopped what they were doing as they peeked out of their doors. Yukari turned around to see everyone peering at her. "Very well, I'll make preparations for a surprise party. He'll love it. I'll make sure of it." Yukari smiled as she said goodnight to Mitsuru. Once back in her room, Makoto was fast asleep on their bed. Yukari got comfy next to him as she turned off the lights and fell asleep in Makoto's arms.
Morning rose as Yukari stretched herself out and slowly got out of bed. She entered their bathroom as she began to get herself ready for the day. Makoto was a bit sleep-deprived as he slept in, thankfully they didn't have anything important to do for the day so Yukari let Makoto sleep. Once he did wake up he received a call from Ken asking him how to trip and moving in went. He replied that it went well. Yukari then came up behind him with a sneak attack as she pulled him down into a hug. The two enjoyed spending hours together just being near one another. Makoto would have his secret birthday and then the day after is when they get to work on college. Yukari was ecstatic about throwing a surprise party for Makoto since he hasn't had one since he was a child.
