Hey, Naoto- is there any evidence that this Wolfwood person could be the kidnapper?

[Private: Investigation Team, Arisato-san, Mochizuki-san, Nagisa-san & Vash-san]

I know this is a delicate subject, but I need a head count on who's willing to head into the TV world. It's uncomfortable, so I'm not going to force anyone.

However, I can't just stand by and do nothing.

[Private: Albarn-san & Soul-san]

I know you said you were willing to help, but this is pretty heavy. It might be better if you sat it out.

I think we should prepare as soon as possible.


... Especially for a dungeon like that.

[Private: Investigation Team]

Yes.. Perhaps, we should buy masks to wear over our faces. The smell of dead bodies can be very overpowering.

[twinknife]

Are you serious?

[Private: Investigation Team]

[yearoftruth.livejournal.com]

Vash-san and Nagisa-san said they'll come with us.

I can't just leave him there.

[Private: Investigation Team]

[twinknife]

Maybe you can't....... but I can.





I think you're going to have to count me out, partner.

Sorry. But.... if he accepts that thing as part of him-- I just


I can't do it! The guy CONFESSED to murder in the worst way!! I appreciate that you want to save him, but if he killed someone....

We don't know any specifics. It's a bit early to jump to those conclusions.

Even if he did, things aren't going to get better because he dies. You know that.

And if we're wrong, someone innocent dies. We haven't heard the full truth yet.

[Private: Investigation Team]

[twinknife]

I'm not saying things'll get better, but they can't possibly get any worse!

[Private: Investigation Team]

[yearoftruth.livejournal.com]

Without him, we're not going to get any closer to the truth.

It's okay if you're not comfortable. We'll be okay.

Wow, Yosuke-senpai, I thought you were way more courageous than that.


Souji-senpai, maybe we should ask Maka-san to come along instead, since chicken here doesn't seem like he can hold his lunch.

Vash-san and Nagisa-san said they'd come with, and I would rather bring them before Albarn-san.

I asked who I thought was comfortable coming. It's okay, Rise.

So he's totally fine with all the other weirdo dungeons we've had to face, but this one's a little much? Whatever. If Vash and Kaworu-kun are coming along, then we should be fine.

[Private: Investigation Team]

[twinknife]

This isn't about that, damnit!!! My point is the guy's a murderer!! What if reconciling him with his shadow pushes him over the edge!? Then we basically just bring a serial killer back to Desai and let him go free??

[Private: Investigation Team]

[risecchi.livejournal.com]

Do YOU have any proof that he killed anyone other than his Shadow said so?! Besides, he's Vash-san's best friend, who seems TOTALLY shocked by his behavior! If THAT'S not proof enough that he's not like that and needs to be saved, then what is?!


I still say you're just chickening out.

[Private: Investigation Team]

[twinknife]

It's a SHADOW, Rise! The truth, remember?? Even if it's a little distorted and weird, they can't just make stuff up off the top of their heads! That thing said he's killed before. Pretty cut-and-dry!!!

And, well, sometimes best friends aren't as clued in as they'd like to think they are.


Think whatever the hell you want - I don't care. If he goes on a killing spree after we get him out.... I'm not having that on my conscience!!

[Private: Investigation Team]

[risecchi.livejournal.com]

I already said we didn't need you anyway.

[Private: Investigation Team]

[twinknife]

Yeah well that's just awesome.

[Private: Investigation Team]

[yearoftruth.livejournal.com]

...Stop it, Rise.

[Private: Senpai]

[risecchi.livejournal.com]

I am NOT okay with him implying that people's Shadows are all there is to them!!

[Private: Rise]

[yearoftruth.livejournal.com]

I don't think that's what's making him uncomfortable.

[Private: Investigation Team]

[yearoftruth.livejournal.com]

You don't have to. If you want to stay, that's fine. If something happens, I'll take responsibility for what happens.
