Ryoko Otonashi

Prompt

Ryoko answers the questions and Yasuke is surprised to find out that she remembers what just happened and what they talked about, meaning that her condition might be getting better, or maybe worse. Yasuke gives Ryoko her treatment. Ryoko is shocked when she is reminded that she was almost suspended from school due to her bad grades, especially because it would mean she would be apart from Yasuke. Yasuke tells her he defended her, because she is too much of a valuable research subject to lose. They talk more about Ryoko's condition. Ryoko claims she isn’t worried about it, and that she’s more worried about being cured, because she wouldn’t get to see Yasuke anymore. Darkly, Yasuke tells her he won’t let her treatment end. As they hear noise outside, Yasuke explains to Ryoko about the reserve course students. He leaves to see the Steering Committee, while Ryoko sleeps in the lab. After Yasuke returns to the lab, he wakes Ryoko up roughly. He throws her out and tells her to come back in three days. Disappointed, Ryoko returns to her room with the help of her notebook. She decides to kill some time and tries to redraw her sketches of Yasuke. She soon grows tired and continues to miss him, until she suddenly gets a threatening letter. The writer calls her Ms. Super High School Level Pitiful Forgetful Girl and claims to have stolen all the past memories she’s written and hidden under her bed, and tells her to come alone to the fountain in the central plaza at night 1AM. Though angered about the supposed prank, Ryoko decides to go. At night, Ryoko goes to the central plaza. She finds one of the Steering Committee's members dead and hanging from a tree with a rope around his neck. She finds a notebook in a small puddle of blood under the man. Shocked and crying, Ryoko runs away and tries to go see Yasuke. She bangs the door, but doesn't get an answer. Instead, Yuto Kamishiro opens his door, which is next to Yasuke's. Ryoko doesn't notice him at first and confuses his age.
