[Dormitory 3-07]

To wake up once again in an unfamiliar place began to felt like a common routine for her. It's not a pleasant thought to say the least. Was this some trick of Val's again? Like an experiment? And what did this letter mean by 'saved'? Kirika sat on her bed as she leaned over the letter in her hand, still in her white jump suit. After she read it again, she tossed it aside and walked over to her trunk at the end of her bed. At least this time she was provided a gun, she set that one close to her. Next was to change from these clothes since it would be difficult to hide her gun. Kirika removed her clothing and replaced them with a tang top and a skirt. She tossed her hoodie over herself before she tucked her gun away from view. After she savaged through her trunk, she looked around at the other three by their beds. If there was anyone in the room, she would go through their trunks as well. Call it a bad habit.

[Gothic Cathedral]

As Kirika adventured to some of the floors, her body came to a halt. She wasn't very religious. Hell, perhaps God already has punished her for her sins, she wouldn't blame the thought of it. What caught her attention though were the stained glassed windows. She stared up at them curiously, perhaps wondered what each image meant. She began from one side of the room and followed the wall as the mumbling continued within the room.

[Aquarium]

Kirika paused once again as the blue ray of lights emits from this room. Perhaps the only room that caught her curiosity, the aquarium. Fish, whales, jelly fishes, and more were in the room. It was as if she was tossed out of a boat in the middle of the ocean. Before she could even place her hand against the glass, there was none. Was what she seeing real? Her hand carelessly leaned towards the water's wall. Just one dip from her fingers and nothing happened. She then pushed her hand through the water.

aquarium

[kickspenguins]

[While he usually stays away from anyone else who happens to be in the aquarium any time he is, the way this girl's acting like this is the first time she's seen the glassless tanks draws him to her.]

You'll have to be careful. Some of the things in the tank are pretty vicious and won't hesitate to attack you.

[carrythesin]

[When she heard Jirou's voice, the young girl withdrew her hand quickly. She turned her head towards him with a curious look. Don't mind the stares.]

[kickspenguins]

[That makes him stare back. While he's always been socially inept, at least when he tries to talk other people they talk back so it's not so bad. Having this girl just stare at him like that is a bit awkward.

Sakuma shuffles his feet a bit and wonders if he should leave.]

[carrythesin]

[Granted Kirika isn't the best at being social either. Unless she has something useful to say, she'll say it. Even so, she knows herself this person is trying to be helpful. ]

Um... Thank you.

[kickspenguins]

[He shrugs.]

Just thought you should know.

[Besides, the aquarium is kind of his refuge and it'd be inconvenient if there's someone being eaten by fish.]

[carrythesin]

[But a nice place to draw later. A nod.]

...What is this place?

[kickspenguins]

[Since he's not sure what she's referring to he asks;]

You mean the aquarium? Or the tower?

[carrythesin]

Tower.

[Cause it's sure way different from the last place she was in. Any information is possible.]

[kickspenguins]

Oh. You're new then. Didn't you get a letter when you woke up?

[Not that he minds telling her. He's just curious.]

[carrythesin]

[A nod, but it didn't mean she believed it.]

I was 'saved'?

[kickspenguins]

Yeah. But honestly, it probably would have been better if they left you in your destroyed world. It's not that much better here.

[And even though it's not his fault she's here, he still feels bad that she is, he says:]

Sorry.

[carrythesin]

[She shakes her head at his apology.] Then I wouldn't have to be a burden at least.

[Completely agreeing with him.]

What happens here?

[kickspenguins]

Every so often, the controllers of the tower put us through experiments.

[carrythesin]

Weekly experiments?

[Well that sounds familiar.]

[kickspenguins]

No, not weekly.

[He's not sure if he could handle weekly experiments.]

Every couple months or so. At least, that's what it's been like since I got here.

[carrythesin]

[It sucks, really. Is there a small smile on her face? Maybe.]

I see. [She looks back up at the aquarium. She's never seen an aquarium before okay?] ...The other place didn't have this.

[kickspenguins]

'Other place?' You mean, you've been somewhere else that's like the tower?

[That's the first he's heard of something like this.]

[carrythesin]

[There's a nod.]

A facility actually.

[kickspenguins]

...Oh. I didn't know other similar places existed.

[Somehow learning that makes him feel even sadder.]

[carrythesin]

Yeah...

[And that's just the icing. Holding her arms together.]
