Re: Despair Syndrome
I…I’m going to help them change into hospital gowns, and set them up in the patient rooms.
Yessir! Changing into a gown is a fine thing to do indeed!
Sob… I don’t wanna change clothes… It’s scary!
A…Anyway! The rest of you, stay here and wait for now, please!
Tsumiki supported the three feverish people on her shoulders, and led them into the hospital.
Shit… I never thought we could get sick here. What the hell…?
Long have I desired a momentary respite from Nagito Komaeda… but to lose the two others as well…
I guess, but… Hey. Tsumiki said she’s gonna help ‘em change, right? So… does that mean she’s gonna change them herself?
…Why does that matter?
Because, um… that means she’s changing Komaeda too. That’s bad, isn’t it?
Heh heh heh. Such matters need not worry you.
Even one such as I… must on occasion deal with the
less dignified aspects of the Four Dark Gods of Destruction.
Yeah, but they’re hamsters! He’s a teenage boy!
Hey, how much longer are you gonna inflict your low IQ on everyone?
Don’t you think it’s time to take this seriously? We have to figure out what we’re going to do.
What are we going to do…?
This insidious malaise… is known to me. Born of the Demon King’s malice, it laid waste to a mighty demonic empire in mere days…
…But worry not! I, the Ascendant Ruler of Ice, am
above vulnerability to such lowly afflictions. Fwahaha!
I am worried about our three sick friends, but… what of Tsumiki-san? If she stays close to them… won’t she catch the fever too?
Yeah, I guess that’s another thing to worry about…
…………
Monobear said that the fever is carried by small insects, right?
…Maybe the bug repellent from the supermarket will work…?
It’s probably not likely, but…
You don’t think Tsumiki’s gonna handle Komaeda’s…
private parts, do you?
Shit. That’s one hell of a dilemma. I’d hate getting sick, but on the other hand… I’m kinda jealous!
Good to see you’ve still got your priorities straight.
This sure turned into a mess…
But… we can’t give up now… We have to hold our ground until Nidai comes back…!
Yeah, you’re right… Still, though, you have to take it easy. Your wounds aren’t fully healed yet.
Heh. You don’t expect me to just laze around while the others are working, do you?
This looks like a really dangerous disease. Komaeda and Owari and Mioda aren’t acting normal at all.
If it continues to spread… we really could end up with another murder…
Indeed. It is plain from their conditions; a dark future is inevitable.
They can’t read the atmosphere at all, these guys.
They should’ve just gone and killed themselves when they realized how much trouble they were causing.
S…Saionji-san…
Yeah… I know. That’s not really an option.
In that case… we should take some measures to stop the fever spreading to the rest of us.
What… “measures”… are you thinking of?
What, isn’t it obvious?
I’m saying we should quarantine them so the disease doesn’t spread!
Q…Quarantine?!
If this fever can’t be cured, we have to make sure it doesn’t spread. Don’t tell me you’re so thick you don’t even get
that.
S…Still… Quarantine? That’s a little too harsh, isn’t it…?
If we all get the Despair Fever, things are going to quickly get out of hand.
She’s got a point… We
can’t let this fever spread…
…Wait just a second!
…………
“Quarantine”… in other words, it just means “hospitalization”, doesn’t it?
N…Nanami! You too? You support this idea?!
…If that’s what it takes to avoid mutual killing, then yeah, I do.
This fever was set up by Monobear as a motive. We can’t just ignore it…
If we do, we’ll probably have to deal with another murder soon.
And so, if we want to stop this contagious disease… we should hospitalize them.
If we do… who’s going to take care of them?
Tsumiki will stay with them. Who else?
She’s already been touching them all over. She probably has the fever herself by now.
B…But… We can’t just leave her here all alone…
So why don’t you stay here too, big bro Hinata?
…What?
Now that I think about it, you touched them all too. Remember? You took their temperatures.
…Oh.
So, good luck! Call us if there’s any trouble!
W…Wait… call you? How would I do that?
Oh, right. We have to think of a way to communicate. We can’t meet face to face or the fever will spread.
I guess it’s your turn to shine, big bro Souda.
Um… yeah, sure.
Be assured… We will not simply abandon you to your fate. We will be close by, in case something happens.
Close by…? Where?
There is a motel on this island, is there not? Until this matter is settled, the rest of us will stay over there.
What? I have to stay in that dirty place?
Should the worst come to pass… we must be able to reach the hospital quickly.
And further… if this fever is truly airborne… it is probable that the Hotel Mirai is already contaminated.
Defense is of the utmost importance! I have disciples I must protect!
Your hamsters again?
Mind your careless mouth, fool! You dare call the Four Dark Gods of Destruction
hamsters?!
Fine, fine… I’ll stay at the motel. Not like I have any choice.
So… it’s a quarantine but we’ll be on the same island. If something happens we can be there as soon as you call.
…Feh.
Y…You got a problem with that?
This entire scenario… it has got to be a trap.
Monobear’s goal is to have us in discord… Do we really want to do that?
It’s not really a discord… is it?
We just don’t want more killings… If everyone gets sick we wouldn’t be able to avoid that.
Yeah, exactly… We can’t all fall to this disease.
That would fit even more with Monobear’s goals!
…………
Remember what Saionji said last night? When worst comes to worst, I’m the one getting thrown to the wolves first.
W…What about that?
I think that time has come. Hinata and Tsumiki are just two people. That’s not enough…
…Are you saying you’re staying here?
What…? You too, Kuzuryuu?
My life is cheap…
Is it? Whatever. Do what you want.
Hey, are you sure about that? It can be dangerous.
How many times do I have to repeat myself?!
W…Well, it’s not really a problem, is it? So… good luck, guys.
Leave the rest to us… We won’t let this fever spread any farther…
So, just get out of here and go to the motel before any of you catches it.
I…I deeply apologize for making you do this…
No… I guess you’re all right after all. It’s the only thing we can do…
Thanks… We won’t let you down.
While you’re hospitalized, the rest of us will solve the riddle of this “despair fever”…
…I think. Probably.
Just this once… Can’t you be a little more decisive? Please? So… please excuse us.
…And as for a way to communicate, I’ll think of something.
Bye-bye! Hope you have a good, long life, guys!
Beautiful RuinWith that, Kuzuryuu and I were left alone in the hospital. This… is definitely not how I imagined today going.
You can’t blame them, though… The one to blame is Monobear.
Feh. A fever? That’s so annoying.
Ah! Sorry to have kept you waiting!
Phew… I finally got them all changed. They’re all resting in their rooms now.
…Huh? Why is it just you two here?
Um… Well, you see…
Oh, I get it! Everyone went to buy some fruit as a get well present, didn’t they?!
This must be one of Japan’s most famous customs even if you don’t know much else about the country, but fruit (expensive specialty ones) are the customary gift when visiting someone at the hospital.
Fuyuu… everyone’s so kind. All they think about is their friends…!
Well, that’s not exactly…
Heh heh heh. We must all help each other when someone is sick. Let’s work together to get through this!
…………
Hinata, I’m sorry. You handle this.
…You say that like it’s so easy…
And so, we were split into two groups.
In the hospital, Komaeda, Owari and Mioda, the victims of the Despair Fever…
…Tsumiki, as their attending nurse…
…And me and Kuzuryuu, left to accompany her. Six people in total.
The other five - Nanami, Tanaka, Souda, Sonia and Saionji - are staying at the motel on this island.
Then there’s Nidai. He’s… still gone.
I can’t imagine the situation will change much as long as this “Despair Fever” is in effect.
And yet… I have no clue what we should do.
Honestly… What should we do…?
