[VERY ACCIDENTAL VIDEO | PUBLIC | JAPANESE | TRIGGERS FOR SELF-HARM]

[have a shot of Chidori's back. She's kneeling on the ground; her shoulders are hunched, pushed inwards--though it's hard to see from the angle, her hands are curled tight in her lap. Her hair's fallen in front of her face, and she seems to be breathing heavily

Chidori-chan, is it happening to you too?

[Voice]

[medeating]

What...?

[Voice]

[unbearable_puns]

Everyone is trying to hurt themselves... you're bleeding too. Did the same thing get you?

[Voice]

[medeating]

Everyone? I...

[hadn't noticed. Sob.]

'Thing'? ... I don't know.

[ascribing this to an outside force for once feels odd, so that's all she can say in response.]

[Voice]

[unbearable_puns]

Don't hurt yourself, Chidori-chan! Please don't hurt yourself!

[Voice]

[medeating]

[very, very quietly. Very, and yet almost... wry.]

Why not?

[Voice]

[unbearable_puns]

Because you're my friend and I care about you!

[Voice]

[medeating]

This is only natural. Because...

[Voice]

[unbearable_puns]

I already told you the because. Rrrraaaaaawwwrrr why is this happening to people!

Chidori-chan, don't you hurt yourself!

[Voice]o-omg that icon

[medeating]

[there's a long pause before she speaks again, voice wavering even more.]

I can't stop.

[Voice]It's Teddie rage!

[unbearable_puns]

Yes you can! Chidori-chan is strong, right? You know you can!

[Voice]

[medeating]

'Strong'? Is that what you think...?

[at least she sounds curious, now. Even if her voice is still wavering.]

[Voice]

[unbearable_puns]

Uh huh! When I met Chidori-chan, you seemed very cool and collected, like Sensei! I'm sure you're a strong person!

[Voice]

[medeating]

Those aren't the same.

[does she even care if she's weak or strong? Probably not.]
