Characters: Yukiteru and YOU
Setting: Room 2-20 & Cafeteria
Format: Prose initially, but I'll match!
Summary: Yukki arrives the morning after the 'happy end.' He's not taking it well.
Warnings: A kid dangerously close to going into shock after all he's been through;; also spoilers for Mirai Nikki.

Room 2-20:

The poor kid is obviously freezing. It's quite a jump from a moderate climate like Japan in mid-summer to the frigid temperatures like this; combine that with the fact that he's here at all, and everything that had happened just before arriving here, and it's a miracle he hasn't completely gone into shock yet. Operative word here: yet.

He's seated on his bed, the blankets wrapped tightly around himself, including a bright blue blanket that looked as if it had seen a lot of wear and tear over the years. There's an open cellphone on his lap, plugged into a nearby wall, and he's been staring at it intently since he arrived here.

UNKNOWN DATE, 12:19 PM :: A NEW LIFE BEGINS IN THE TOWER.

There is no entry after this. He's never had that problem before, and it really doesn't help his state of mind right now. And 'unknown date?'

... Yes. Of course. They failed. He and Yuno both did. It's the only conclusion, and it perfectly explains what he read in those letters. The world was destroyed, time and space torn asunder by what Deus warned them about. The Survival Game was over, and nobody won. It was true, then... Yuno did love him, despite her attempts to persuade both of them otherwise. She couldn't kill him any more than he could kill her. And he couldn't have thought of a worse way to confirm what he already knew than this.

Yukiteru falls sideway onto his bed, wrapping the blankets tigher around himself. It's hard to tell if the shaking is caused by stress, or just shivering.

Cafeteria

Yukki has been sitting there for a while, staring at the oatmeal. He's tried to make it a bit better; but he can't eat it. He hasn't touched it, and it isn't from the fact that he knows it's going to taste bad. He just has no appetite right now, and he hasn't for 24 hours now, from the time he woke up in his own world, to when he woke up here, knowing what was going to happen that day. This could have been a five-star steak and he still wouldn't have wanted to eat it. Especially not in this temperature.

It's clear to anyone who sees him he's upset, and hasn't taken to the Tower well at all. Especially since he hasn't seen hide nor hair of Yuno since arriving here, and if he's here for the reason he thinks he is, then surely she has to be, as well. After all, isn't it both of their faults their universe was destroyed? Through their inaction?

He doesn't want to think about it, but he can't help it. The Survival Game has now officially taken everything from him, including, as it would appear, Yuno. He had nothing left to lose. And as it would appear, nothing to gain, either.

He closes his eyes, and looks down, fighting back tears.

"These days I got nothing but time. Well, as long as your story's not too boring, anyway." A shrug followed Kyoko's second statement, almost an afterthought. Not like anything was keeping her from leaving if it turned out to be a typical sob story. That thought in mind, she polished off her nutrition bar before folding her arms on the table. She leaned forward slightly, watching him, waiting. For the moment, at least, he had her undivided attention.

Kyoko was surprisingly attentive throughout his explanation, one hand occasionally moving to grab another nutrition bar. Some of it was frustrating enough that she would start to open her mouth to interject before quickly closing it, while other things were discomforting in . In the end, she doesn't immediately respond outside of a noise of dissent. She chewed over the story. She couldn't understand the viewpoint of somebody who'd did nothing but hide behind their partner, but that last statement...

"What were ya expecting out of all that? Things like selfless love don't exist. Even ya only fell in love 'cause ya found somebody who ya could use. She just figured it out sooner." Kyoko offered a shrug. "Something like that's not worth regretting."

"If that's all ya want, then ya should try and ascertain whether or not she's really here. This tower's a big place, so it's easy to miss people, but...even if there's just a slight chance, shouldn't that be enough of a reason to keep searching?" It was, perhaps, a kinder answer than she might normally have given. Something about his story and the feelings that he'd left unsaid were resonating with Kyoko, who had chosen to try and reach out to Sayaka until the very end.

"Kyoko Sakura." She didn't bother to ask for his name in turn, instead watching him. She crumpled the wrapper of the nutrition bar, dropped it on the side of the table, then started on another.

"Sure." The nutrition bars were bland and tasteless, nothing like the rich, fatty foods that she was used to, but food was food. She felt better when she ate. He was still staring at that phone. Telling the future, huh...

"Don't depend on that thing too much. Even if it helped ya back home, it might not work the same way here, y'know. Besides, it only records what you're gonna see, right?"

Kyoko pushed her chair back and began to collect the remaining nutrition bars. Despite bringing several with her, there were only a few left now. She wondered if leaving this guy alone was a bad idea, but she didn't like to sit around for too long.

"I'm heading out now. If I see that girl, I'll let her know ya were looking for her, 'kay?"
