[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in a run-down one-room shack, with the distinct feeling that the people around you are your family, if you didn't already have such a bond with them.

You're wearing raggedy versions of your clothes, and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in %COUNTRYNAME%, in the year %CONTEMPORARY%. The newspaper is otherwise actually fairly unhelpful, aside from something detailing a recent high-profile murder having been solved: despite confusion on the part of the authorities conducting the initial investigation, it turns out the victim had been tragically murdered via gun in the knife.

What do you do? ]

But if you and Rise-chan think that would be best...

I think we should take what we can get, especially if it's going to bring us a little happiness. If this... bites us in the butt, then we'll be more careful in future rounds. But maybe it'll just be a positive.

I hope so. Sorry, I'm probably overthinking this...

No, it's fine, we probably should be thinking of all of the ways we're going to get screwed. [ because it's going to happen! ]

That's sort of why I'm worried about this, Yugi-kun. It seems like such an - an obvious way for it to happen... but if you're both happy to take it, then I'm all right.
