He's right...I took the name 'Sou Hiyori' both to hide who I was and to feel stronger. Sou was my friend, and he always seemed to know what he was doing. But I didn't mean for any of this to happen...
[With that 18 that was just rolled though, Atem will be able to tell that something is off about what Teal and Magenta are describing here. Teal is not acting completely like Shin Tsukimi did, even Shin had some mental strength and didn't cry all the time. And Magenta is not acting completely like Sou Hiyori did, Sou was not nearly that aggressive during the death game, even during the moments where it's clear Magenta had the most influence over Sou.]
[His eyes soften as he reaches for Teal's shoulder.]
But look at yourself... Look at him. You both need each to be whole. He denies what you've contributed, but I speak from experience. The courage to keep moving forward comes from recognizing just how precious life is...
Why did you not tell anyone here? In your final moments... you say you regretted to tell the truth. Do you realize you're repeating the same mistakes..?
Because it's all I know how to do. I'm not strong, I'm not good with words...Smarts really aren't that useful without the charisma to get people to listen to you. And...I never really trusted any of you with the truth before. I didn't have anyone I felt like I could tell in the first place.
[Mostly because he keeps people at an arm's length anyway.]

And you know that firsthand, don't you..?

I've been trying for weeks, but we still fractured and he still stabbed someone.
[Oh yeah. He looks to Joshua.]
I'm so sorry about that. You didn't do anything wrong.

Friendship takes more than one person to work. So does communication...

Let's be friends, okay? And we'll go somewhere to eat... just like we always do.
So keep living, Teal. Until the very end.

[How could he not be friends with someone who went through the worst parts of him to save him.]

It's fine. I'm surprised it only took 4 weeks, I think my own partner wanted to stab me on the second day or something~
[ NOT THE POINT BUT OK ]
