4th rebuttal; text/action for the dangan house
[ Last time was Detention with Alter Ego, tonight is the garbage room. Taiki is there with him for company, but every last scrap of food they manage to find is completely rotten and there's no way to know what's safe to drink and what isn't. He can't tell how long he's in there but it feels like days.
Eventually, the hunger becomes too overwhelming and before he realizes what he's doing, his body moving seemingly on its own, he's grabbing an iron pipe from the remnants of the space rocket and lunges toward the Arcafoodfoodfoodfoodfoodnine--
And suddenly Naegi is back in his bed in Goldenrod City, cold and drenched in sweat and the dream still fresh (too fresh) in his mind. He heaves a sigh of relief when he sees his Arcanine fast asleep on the floor next to the bed and he reaches out to scratch the dog behind the ears. Instead of going back to sleep, though, he decides to quietly go downstairs to the kitchen. Maybe it's because he just had a dream about starvation but he really feels like having some food right about now.
Godawful o'clock in the morning is the perfect time for sandwiches and a tub of ice cream, okay. It's also the perfect time for doing FTEs with Ishimaru. ]
[ Later, Ishimaru's gone back to bed and Naegi can't sleep because fuck these nightmares so he decides to write up the following text and post it to the network. It's still godawful o'clock in the morning but maybe someone's around to help him kill some time. ]
How do you keep 30 Eevees and their evolutions from shedding fur all over the house?
Also, what do you do when you can't sleep?
[ That's it, that's the post. He's not even exaggerating about those thirty Eevees. If any other dangans are awake, they'll find him playing tetris in the kitchen or playing with one of the Eevees. ]

I have nightmares about the school sometimes, but my Pokémon aren't normally in them. Maybe something is going on...? Or maybe we're just stressed out...
no subject
Ah, that might be it, yes - we do have new surroundings to get used to and all, and it's been a while since we were all in one place...quite like this. It's a bit different than the hotel; that might be why.
Whatever it is, hopefully it'll pass soon; it's not good to stay up like this!
[...okay, yeahno, he kind of has to ask.]
Why do you have so much food out, anyway? Becoming hungry in the middle of the night is one thing, but...
[Something seems to occur to him then.]
You aren't sick, are you? If you are, we should get that looked at as soon as possible!
no subject
[ Hungry enough to have an entire tub of ice cream in front of him. Don't judge. :| ]
no subject
[He doesn't sound convinced, but he's trying...]
What sort of things did you dream about before, anyway? Before everything happened.
no subject
no subject
My own dreams, the ones I can remember, were never nearly that interesting; I like yours, though!
[He seems to resettle a bit after that, though; just...thinking, really.]
Everything was much simpler then; my concerns were entirely with school and family back home, and my dreams reflected that. Though the worst of the nightmares from Hope's Peak seem to be subsiding; hopefully whatever this recent resurgence is will do the same.
no subject
[ He pauses, then adds: ]
There's a tub of Chunky Mankey ice cream in the freezer. Do you want it?
no subject
[Irresponsible, is what it is. It's really irresponsible, and there's no way he should be doing this at ugly o'clock in the morning and he's going to hate himself in the morning but you know what - ]
...appreciated tonight, I think.
[LET HIM GO RETRIEVE THAT, THEN, GOODNESS LORD WHAT IS TONIGHT EVEN.]
no subject
...Ishimaru-kun, can you tell me a bit about yourself? We've been friends for month but we haven't really talked about our lives, have we...
no subject
Well...of course, Naegi-kun! What is it you want to know?
no subject
no subject
[He shrugs a bit at that; the gesture seems a bit more lost than anything.]
I was also the founder and chairman of the disciplinary committee at my old school; outside of that, and outside of school in general, I didn't have any siblings or anything, and I lived with my parents. We didn't have much money - we were well below middle-class, but we managed well enough. There wasn't anything special or extraordinary about it, really.
no subject
[ ...yeah, he had to ask. ]
no subject
...Because it was necessary for my future career. It involved a lot of sacrifice, but we found ways.
no subject
...Though he seems to realize that wow maybe that was a stupid thing to ask. ]
I see. Um, sorry for asking...That was too intrusive of me, wasn't it.
no subject
It's fine, Naegi-kun - it's still very early and all.
[As though this explains everything. But still.]
no subject
I probably should go back to sleep, but I don't want to do that.
