[ after shigeo calls for them, he will get a message telling him to simply stay where he is.

soon after, rabbit will be stepping into the planetarium. ]

... hi.

[exercisms]

Hi, Rabbit.

[How does she look? Giving her a worried look.]

. . . I faint sometimes, too. Do you still feel bad?

[retellers]

[ i am pretending i didn't already accidentally out the pronouns to you it's fine

but their cheeks look like they're a little tear stained? but hey, they're awake! that's an upgrade. they shake their head. ]

It's... I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that.

[exercisms]

[I didn't even notice Janczia, I just screwed them up in the last comment because I assumed girl anyway.]

You can't help it, right?

[retellers]

[ we are going to pretend this bracket conversation never happened now the other mods won't see it ]

Mm... the others are better at handling it than I am.

[exercisms]

I don't think it's bad that you get upset. It's good that. . . that we can see that it hurts you, too.

[retellers]

I guess... but it doesn't really show that I'm dependable.

[exercisms]

No one really thinks I'm dependable, either. . .

[Mood, Rabbit.]

[retellers]

But... you did such a good job! You worked so hard.

[ shigeo... is so valid. ]

[exercisms]

So did you!

[. . . ]

I think you're dependable, Rabbit.

[retellers]

[ oh... they grab his hand. ]

So are you.

[exercisms]

[Squeezing back, smiling a little.]

Maybe we can practice. If you faint, or are sad, I won't think anything bad about you because of that.

[retellers]

Same to you!

[ a pause ]

Although I... guess you haven't fainted... probably.

[exercisms]

I've been practicing running lately, but even so - when I ran in the school marathon, I fainted.

[retellers]

[ he fainted...

rabbit nods. ]

It was still really cool that you tried!

[exercisms]

Thank you.

[Pleased!]

It's cool that you tried, too.

[retellers]

... make sure you be careful while you're here. We don't know yet what has changed here, but we don't think it's going to be anything good.

[exercisms]

I'll be careful.

. . . Do you know what team Viridian-san was on? I had to guess, and I picked ours.

[retellers]

[ they shake their head. ]

I wouldn't be able to tell you either way.

[exercisms]

Why is it supposed to be a secret, Rabbit? I don't want to lie to anybody.

[retellers]

I mean... we don't know who's on each other's teams. We're only supposed to know who's on ours. And we're not allowed to say who's on our team--which means we can't confirm if someone isn't on our team, since then it's just a simple process of elimination, right?

Even if our team members.... die... we can't break that rule.

[exercisms]

[Nodding.]

I don't want you to get in trouble. But I mean, what about me? Why would it be against the rules to tell someone I'm on your team?

[retellers]

You can tell people, but it's... recommended that you don't tell that many. If you start telling too many people then we might see problems start to pop up.

[exercisms]

Problems?

[retellers]

It's still a rule. So breaking it too much will probably form negative effects.
