Cafeteria

There wasn't a lot of food to be found in the ruins of his world, and he's lost some weight from lack of nourishment. Most everything he ate was in a can or vacuum-sealed. Everything full of preservatives and cold.

It's fortunate that the cafeteria has a somewhat normal menu upon his return. It's not good for his regiment to eat so much, but letting go one time can't hurt, especially after what happened.

Hell, he can even tolerate the candy hearts that seem to have ended up into everything.

Floor 22

Akihiko's nothing of an art critic, but today the gallery catches his interest, as he catches a glance of a painting depicting children playing together in a room. There are two boys and a little girl in it, one boy and the girl with short, fair hair and the other dark brown. Their faces are turned away from the the viewer.

As he goes to leave, another work catches his eye. It consists of orange and red lengths of yarn glued in shapes to a collage of brick textures that look like they've been cut out of a home improvement catalog. In fact, closer examination of the cutouts shows white space from around the images, and their glossy feel is the same as magazine paper. It wouldn't be so horrific if the yarn hadn't been adhered to the canvas in the shape of flames. That and the piece kind of smells like smoke...

The art is so unsettling but he can't pull himself away just yet.

Floor 25

Nobody seems to be sleeping in the meadow, so Akihiko decides to do a few practice maneuvers here. It's the closest thing to a pleasant day outside he can get anymore.

He wouldn't be against someone wanting to join him, to spar or even just talk.

Minato's quiet for a moment, thinking back to his memories of his own trip.

"...It feels real to me." He felt the frightening high amount of broken Social Links the moment he returned. All but one of them, broken. "It's real enough for me that I don't know what to do at first."

His Social Links was his strength. The sheer absence, save for the Death Social Link, was almost too much for him.

"Lying about saving just one of us from each world." That would be nice, really. But the odds wasn't that likely. "It would be very difficult to tell. I haven't heard of two people returning to the same home world at once, for example."

His situation with Pharos would be an exception, as Pharos never appear in the tower "officially".
