"Good morning, everyone! It is now 7 a.m. and nighttime is officially over! Time to rise and shine! Get ready to greet another beee-yutiful day in your despairingly dreary killing game life!"
"Shit!" Mizuki cursed as she fell out of the bed.
"Hm?" Haku raised her head from the couch, looking over at Mizuki in confusion. "What happened?"
"Oh...nothing much. Just...doing my morning exercises..." the comedian said, hauling herself to her feet and stretching out her back.
"Did the morning announcement just play?"
"Yeah, why?"
"We should head down to the dining hall. We need to start looking for Jiro-san and Shigeru-kun as soon as possible" the albino stated, pushing herself up.
She stretched her arms in the air and lowered her arms behind her at an angle that looked like she was about to snap them off. Without even pulling them back, her shoulders suddenly clicked into place and arms were back in front of her.
"Well. I'm gonna pretend like that didn't just scar me for life. How many joints do you even have?" Mizuki asked, looking mildly perturbed.
Haku glanced at Mizuki; confusion was obvious on her face.
"What do you mean?"
"What do I......joints? You know, like how people are double jointed and stuff."

"Let's just head to breakfast, yeah? We gotta find Jiro and Ryo-kun." She said, smiling.

"So, what's the plan?" Haise asked, propping her feet up on the table.
"Well. We definitely need to search the place that Ryo-kun disappeared in. I saw a branching path when I found the book. But I didn't explore it yet. Anyone want to volunteer as tribute to come explore it with me?" Mizuki looked around, resting her arms behind her head.
"I'll go with you. It's better to have a man protecting you." Gin said.
"I will accompany you as well. Whatever dwells in the shadows is no match for my sealed power." Chiyo said.
"I wanna go too! I can see in the dark!" Haise announced, shooting her hand up in the air.
"You...what? How?" Haku asked.
"I have no clue!" She said, giggling.
"Well...you're still welcome to join us. As for everyone else..."
"Everyone else should search the mansion. Also, you should make sure to have at least one other person in your line of sight at all times." Gin instructed.
A collective nod.
"Nice. Now let's get our nerds back." Mizuki said.
"What was that sentence for?" Haku asked.
