I can take them, Ms. Mafuyu.

Thank you. I'm leaving them outside my door.

[ When Sunrise goes to collect them: ]

Oh, I know one of them.

Which one?

The one in the green dress. This is Ms. Hyouka.

That one... is easier for me to look at. I am still not comfortable with her though. I'm glad you got her back.

I think Ms. Velvet would be glad to hear you say that.

Is that her maker?

That is correct. She makes different dolls and puppets and uses them in performances.

Sunrise, could I have the other one?

[To burn it.]

You may have it.

I'll be by in a moment to take it off your hands.

[ And she will in fact be waiting outside Mafuyu and Izou's door, yes. ]

[Hey! He didn't have to walk that far.]

Ugh...

[Dead eyes the stupid puppet.]

It's just as wretched as I remember.

like the horror movie kind???

( she sends a picture of the kaiba puppet.

so yes. )

[ ....... ok actually that's really cursed ]

that looks like it's going to come alive and eat you.

Please don't say that. Also I WILL break it if it moves even an inch I do not care if it's someone else's.

maybe don't break it, what if it's REALLY haunted and then it comes looking for revenge?

I am confident in my ability to handle ghosts and the like.

What.

I've helped a ghost in the past and also I don't think I should be underestimated when I really want something gone?k

I was referring to the ghost part.

How you conduct yourself towards the things you openly dislike is far from any concern of mine. I'd even commend it if it keeps you from being stressed in the long term.

[ Yi Sang holding Mafuyu's flower as she commits verbal slaughter. ]

Admittedly the one ghost I ever personally dealt with was a child who needed help finding her lost things at her old school before she could move on, but she is not the first I've seen.

I was expecting you to say you had to exorcise it personally...

But no, that's kind of you. I hope she could find peace.

I do, too. At the end of it, she led me to a cherry tree in bloom. I think she left, after.

in that case i'd pity any poor soul that crosses you ♥

[ he means it affectionately? maybe? idk. who even knows with josh. ]

As you should. I'm very persistent, as you've seen.

Do you still have that thing? Or did Sunrise take it already? Because I'll gladly burn it for you.

I think she's taken it already. The offer is appreciated, though. Thank you.

Then I'll have to ask her for it.

While it isn't mine, I know the person it's based on. And it's nothing more than a cruel mockery by some scum. I hoped I'd never see that accursed thing again.
