What: Talking.
Where: Dorms.
When: Tom Dungeon Midboss Break.
Why: I hate this question!

She'd been deliberating since before they even made it home, but hadn't decided whether or not to say anything until it was just about time to put the lights out. It was probably unfair to bring it up now - Kozue was probably as tired as she was from their little adventure, but she felt like it had to be said, all the same. She closed her laptop, noting that her nailpolish was already chipped, and decided to frown down at her hands with the full force of her disapproval while she spoke.

"Hey, do you remember what I asked back in the dungeon..? About... if people want to show their pasts like that?"

Her nails were ceasing to be interesting. She tried looking at imperfections on the wall, instead.

"... I think... maybe... some part of me wanted to show you guys what you saw. I think... maybe that's how it is for everyone who has been stuck in there."

Either catching sight of Kiriko in the mirror, or slightly aware of being watched in that subconscious way, Kozue turned around. She'd finished getting ready for bed, anyway. She looked down at the floor; at the moment, she was more conscious about her eyes than she'd been for a long time. Her grandmother wasn't even here, and nobody had given her trouble about them in years… (Probably because she hid them for the most part, but the fact still stood.)

But hearing what the children in that memory had said had a sour feeling to the forefront of her mind, and it refused to go away.

"That's…" she trailed off, thinking. "That's a really good point. Because we're learning more about each other and— do you think maybe because we're helping each other, we get closer? Or we're closer, so we help each other." She stopped. Another idiotic idea had occurred to her.

"Is this supposed to mean that if we had a giant game of truth or dare we'd all become really super stronger? That seems kind of…" A frown. More or less uncomfortable than sitting through someone's worst memories, when at least they weren't there? She wasn't sure.
