For a long, suspended moment, you don’t know where you are.

And then, you find that you do.

Opening your eyes, you’ll find that wherever you were a moment ago you’re now in an unremarkable room in an unremarkable building, dressed in unfamiliar clothes.

You are understood to be human
You have your cell phone
You have no weapon
You cannot use unit powers
You can call and text one another
Retained corruptions are cosmetic

Welcome to the music industry, probationary idols. You’ve got a lot of work to do.

Is that a filter? I've never seen that one...

[ She keeps scrolling through the camera roll, until it gets to the photo of Levi's dead body in the chapel. ]

And this?

[Wednesday screams.]

W - What is that?

You know what it is. It's your little boyfriend's corpse.

It'd be easier to forget about all that, right?

Would you ignore my corpse too?

W-would I what...?

[She takes a step back.

[This is making no sense at all. It is making far too much. There's something missing, isn't there?]

I - Levi-kun... it's not like that between us. It can't be. I'm an idol, I can't... I'd lose my job...

So you'll abandon him that easily, huh? For some "job"?

That guy -- is a loyal idiot. He probably wouldn't do the same.

[ She flips once more in the camera roll -- to the video by the other Wednesday. ]

How about her? Are you going to abandon her?

B-but it's never been like that, it - he's just a friend, isn't he? He has to be, you both do... What happened to him?

[You did.

[No.]

W-who's that?

She's you. Trapped alone in some broken down murder house. She's stuck there until you remember everything you're trying so hard to forget.

[ She steps forward to cancel out Wednesday's step back, leaning in until there's barely any space between them, noses all but touching. ]

He's not just a friend.

And I'm not either, or I wouldn't do this, would I?

[ Will kissing work?

Fuck, she's desperate, so that's what's happening now. ]

Sabre-ku--

[Something was breaking already.

[It's not real. It can't be real. They don't look right, they don't speak right, they know no more about themselves than she knew, which is nothing very much: Ayumi's done with all this, she knows that. Ayumi can't be out there now, singing and dancing like she's seven years old again and nothing's changed--

[And bears, and the ghostly fingers of girls she remembers all wrong, and blood.

[Something was breaking already, and now it shatters back into a million little lies--none of them, on their own, anything she can believe in at all.]
