I have forgotten to use this device recently... it seems that my focus on keeping track of it is slipping. I'll correct this mistake by paying closer attention to the days as they pass, I'm not aiming to make the same error and be shocked because of it.

[pause]

...I heard that there has been a couple of deaths here recently. It's nothing new in Discedo and the deceased will be revived. Though I'm unaware of the full situation, I'm certain that there are people who are focused on figuring out what happened.

With the possible chance of the chip location being found, some people might become restless in getting theirs out. However, being... "jumpy" about the situation won't help, just retain focus.

Doesn't leaving the chip in lead to potential problems, though?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Yes, but with the knowledge that the chip location may be found, people might be more anxious as of late. That anxiety might have influenced someone's actions and as a result, these two deaths occurred.

Though, I'm not aware of the entire situation surrounding the dead bodies.

[notmanaging.livejournal.com]

[...!]

Do you know anything more about...the people who died?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

I'm not aware of any specific details, just that one of the victims was a person named Cirno.

The body was found in the lake.

[notmanaging.livejournal.com]

[She sounds quite audibly shocked!]

C-cirno?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Yes, you know her?

[notmanaging.livejournal.com]

She helped me a little while ago.

[yukarchery.livejournal.com]

[ Oh, she remembers this guy. He couldn't be stiffer if he was made out of granite. ]

That's a really matter-of-fact way to think about it.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

I let an easily preventable mistake occur, so I stated my solution to make certain that it won't happen again.

[yukarchery.livejournal.com]

Well, good job. Most people talk about what they're feeling or something rather than just-- [ TERRIBLE IMPRESSION TIME ] 'I'm gonna post more, now'.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

It's unnecessary for me to state how I'm feeling every single time I post.

[yukarchery.livejournal.com]

It couldn't hurt.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

I'd rather not inform everyone in Discedo how I'm feeling.

[whistleoflight]

P-people are dying...?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...Yes, but they'll come back.

Just make certain that you stick with someone that will protect you.

[whistleoflight]

I'll stay home with Papa Kuro...

How can they come back? Like... ano... zom... zombies?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Alright.

In this specific place, people come back to life, but are not zombies.

[whistleoflight]

But... how?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

As of now, I heard that the scientists are the ones that revive us.

[boy-fatality.livejournal.com]

Whatever their reasons, there is no excuse for committing murder.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Indeed, especially murder caused by irrational emotions.

Unfortunately, more deaths will most likely occur in the future.

[boy-fatality.livejournal.com]

People are never completely rational.

...Unfortunate, but a fact of life. Hopefully there will be some evidence that leads us to the culprit.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Those close to the victims are probably looking for the culprit already.

[boy-fatality.livejournal.com]

Most likely, but as you said people are irrational. They may lash out at the first likely target without first considering evidence.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

If that occurs, people will just continue to strike each other in revenge.
