The solid oak door of the Iwatodai Dormitory groans shut behind you, sealing away the eerie amber glow of the Dark Hour. A single pendant lamp throws elongated shadows across the familiar lounge, where the members of SEES have frozen in mid-sentence. Makoto stands beside you, hands deep in his pockets, headphones looped around his neck. He draws a quiet breath into the silence heavy with everything left unsaid. "I'm back." Yukari's teacup rattles sharply against its saucer. "What is *they* doing here?" The air itself seems to vibrate as every eye in the room settles squarely on you.
