Why do they bother teaching us anything before summer? I mean, it's not like we're gonna remember anything when we get back...

Sorry, I couldn't tell y

Wait.

Yosuke?

[text]

[kitchenknives]

Yeah? Is there another Yosuke I should know about, partner?

[yumadbro]

...You have no idea what's going on right now, do you?

[kitchenknives]

Wait, there's something going on?

You mean besides texting you?

[yumadbro]

You kind of didn't only text me.

Listen, this is going to sound like a crazy question, but what was the last thing that all of us did?

1/2

[kitchenknives]

There was a fight... You know, over there? It was kinda like a video game--

Oh shit, I forgot, are you okay?

2/2

[kitchenknives]

Wait what...?

Oh goddamnit.

[yumadbro]

Okay, that clears a couple things up. And yeah, I'm completely fine.

Listen, there's something I kind of haven't told you guys. Try to stay with me and I'll make this quick: I can access a universe-spanning online community. You just contacted me through it instead of texting me directly. So I guess you can access it too.

I do not know if this is the right attitude to take toward your studies...

[kitchenknives]

I think I have a headache.

And you're just... okay with this universe spanning what the fuck? Wait, I forgot, you're Yu, of course you are.

I mean, do I get anything out of this? Besides all my texts being seen by forty year old perverts?!

[yumadbro]

Yosuke, think about the kind of things we've seen the past few months. This isn't all that weird in comparison.

And it's not all forty year old perverts. You're overreacting.

[kitchenknives]

Too late to do anything about it now. Knowledge going, going, gone.

[kitchenknives]

I guess it's not that bad-- Oh, man, if this is all Teddie's fault, I'm swear gonna make him sleep on the curb.

You don't think he can get here, right?

And hey, you don't know where this internet dimension's been, either! It's gotta be all kinds of shady, right?

[yumadbro]

I don't think it has anything to do with Teddie or the Midnight Channel. It's a lot more complicated than that. And I don't know about 'shady', but it does cause trouble once in a while.

Remember those weird killer snowmen from a while ago?

I might have known more about where they came from than I let on.

[kitchenknives]

Wait, those came from here?! Those were such a pain in the ass, and they just wouldn't stay down....

Yeah, no kidding there's trouble.

[yumadbro]

Ultimately, it's pretty harmless. Aside from the occasional incident, I mean.

[kitchenknives]

Incident...? Is there something worse than the homicidal snowmen?

[yumadbro]

Nothing worse than your average Shadow, probably.

[answerer_sword]

[What a strange and irresponsible child.]

I hope you are simply joking about this. Otherwise, would your parents not be displeased with your bad grades that come from not retaining knowledge?

[kitchenknives]

I guess that's not so bad...I mean, we can take 'em, right?

[yumadbro]

If we're lucky, sure.

[kitchenknives]

Meh, they've had, what, sixteen years to get used to my shitty grades? I think they're over it by now.

[answerer_sword]

How did you remain in school for this long if, as you claim, your grades are "shitty"?

[kitchenknives]

Didn't you know? My parents bribed all the school officials. But it's top secret, so don't go spreading it around, ok?

[kitchenknives]

...Do you think we should tell everyone what's going on?
