"Ah okay." Black sighed, "I don't think that any of you will be
haunted. It's probably going to be just me and Kokichi. I betrayed
Baorietto after all."

"Now that I'm remembering it, the room did feel colder when I
entered."
Kirumi rests a hand on her chin. "When he said he felt both kinds
of cold, Kokichi was also referring to the feeling of being unsafe.
He's warm when he's safe, cold when he's not. I didn't mention this
before, because feeling unsafe is to be expected when you awake
from a nightmare."
"Well since none of us are sleeping, I'm gonna brew some herbal tea
to help us all calm down." Black rolls over to the microwave,
pouring some water into a cup and heating it up.
"Please, allow me. It is my duty, as the Ultimate Maid." Kirumi
stands and walks into the kitchen. Finding an actual tea kettle,
she fills it with water and sets it on the stove. "How late was it
when Pinku arrived? It couldn't have been too late, if you
encountered Baioretto before Kokichi did. Furthermore, I'm
surprised you woke up at all. Aren't spirits supposed to be
untouchable?"
Going to get some tea bags, Kirumi continues. "Is he still here
now, or were our combined encounters a type of shared dream?"
"It wasn't that late when Pinku came." Black scoots over, "Honestly
I thought we would be free of Baorietto once we left the lab." He
picks up Azumaya and strokes her to calm himself down.
"I as well, but clearly that isn't the case..." Kirumi pours water
into mugs with teabags in them. "But why Pinku as well? Rather than
any of the others who are dead, why Hotopinku Ouma?"

"Maki is currently watching Kokichi, who finally fell asleep after
a night of restlessness. Harumaki, what if we kept them in one
place? Kokichi and Kuro seem to be the only ones tormented." Kirumi
suggests after swallowing her tea. "I'm sure he'll miss us, but it
would also help with Kokichi's dissociation issue. You know he
doesn't visit the other clones, like Maki does with you."
"That might work. I was actually going to suggest that... Pinku
mentioned something about guarding Kuro and Kokichi..."

Harumaki nods. "Then I will get some things together."

Harumaki nods and starts preparing to be with Maki, Kokichi, And
Kirumi for awhile. She also gets some things ready for Black as
well, since he can't move very well to get things together.
