Aaaagh, what are we doing?! Open your eyes, people, we have to stop letting Mayfield confuse us. The power was down and instead of taking advantage of it and attacking while we could, we let people sacrifice themselves for us to bring the power back! That's not acceptable! We... We're all a bunch of stinking cowards!! ♪

[She takes a deep breath, with her very human lungs. She's getting too emotional.]

I'm done. I hate having it be like this. I want these pricks to answer to me... if you agree, meet me at the dairy. There may be a generator inside. ♪

[she's about to hang up, but then pauses. Something about her earlier conversations with the "fakes" has stuck in her mind.]

Even if you were on the erased list, you can still come. Actions speak louder than words, they say! As long as you're not really Mayfield's servant, you should have no problem smashing it up, riiiiight? ♪

[it's a dare. She doesn't believe any of them will come. The phone is slammed.]

(( OOC: A log is up here! ))

[And after Rin's finished her proclamation...]

Think we should leave a note for Ruri? Just in case?

What? But...

[THE PHONE IS SLAMMED DOWN IN HIS EAR.]

Oh. Huh.

[...that actually sounds like kind of a good idea... sort of...]

Yeah. It's not fair to just run off and let someone worry. ♪

[He fetches a pen and some paper, handing them to his little sister]

My handwriting's terrible.

E-Eh? I have to write it? ♪

[She's your girlfriend! Jeez. :I

She stares at the paper for a moment, thinking. How do we make a suicide run sound cheerful and reasonable?]

I'll sign it! I just want it to be readable!

[Oh lord but what do they even put. Well, might as well be an idiot about it]

Uh... 'We're going to attack the town, sorry if we get droned, yes we know it's stupid, hopefully we'll see you soon'? Something like that?

...you're right. I'm coming!

[But mostly to keep her out of trouble. She's human, right now, and the way Miku sees it, she's in more danger.]

... I actually think she'll appreciate us calling ourselves stupid... ♪

[So she'll write that down with the pen. And pauses.]

Should we say Merry Christmas? ♪

[she has no idea how long they could be droned for this :|a]

[... he hates to even think about it, but...]

It couldn't hurt.

[sorry Hiccup, she might have called back under different circumstances, but since he is a creepy fake she really doesn't want to talk to him. See you there!]

[BUT HE'S NOT FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE

okay yeah see you there]

[Then "Merry Christmas!" she writes. And then she signs her name.]

[Taking the pen, Yosuke hastily scribbles on a PS: I love you before signing his own]

Alright... I think we're ready.

[staring at that....]

Right.

[and she's already equipped, too!]

Let's go! ♪

All right! ♪ We'll show them not to mess with our friends!

They won't see us coming!

I'm goin' too.

[Because the whole situation is ~~disturbing~~ pissing her off. She sees no way this could possibly go wrong!]

Sealand's in!

[Oh Rin. After hearing what you're planning, there's no way he can't come. ~~Too bad his Evoker is gone.~~]

...you're right. You're absolutely right, Rin.

[Dakki laughs. And though it might come across to everyone as fake, seeing as she's been erased, it's still a laugh.

When the phone is slammed down, she hangs up, too. Time to get ready.]

[ah, someone signing up that's not FAKE. Even if Rin doesn't really know this girl, that's a relief at least]

Good! This is a long time coming. Tell your friends! ♪

[more not-fakes yayyy]

Yes! I knew I could count on you! ♪

[brrr, what a creepy laugh. No wonder Rin slammed the phone!

But a fake was agreeing with her. That's unexpected. She stares at the phone a moment after.]

...

Was that a joke...? ♪

... Yeah. [Click.

ALL HER FRIENDS ARE BACK HOME...]

[The girl's words manage to strike a chord with her. She had been too focused on her own survival and neglected her allies. And now Tohsaka and Alessandro are gone. She cannot even remember much of either of them--much of what she still knows comes from her notes.]

[Earlier, she and Kyon had discussed the possibility of their allies being held in the dairy. Now, she has an opportunity to find out.]

I'll be there.

[Even had her allies not been involved, she had still considered the storming the dairy. After all, if it is the only locked building in this town, then there must be some significance.]

Maybe if we can take down whatever's in the dairy, everyone who went away will come back.
