"Oh, right, well I can either give a long explanation or I can just show you."
Aiko nodded.
S-Show me t-then, a-as long a-as it’s not dangerous…!
"Of course!" She smiled and went around behind Aiko, running...
Sophie smiled at her reaction to her actions deciding to continue running her fingers through Aiko's hair.
"You know, your hair's very smooth, it's so pretty."
She blushed a bit at the compliment.
R-Really...? T-Thank you-!!
"Oh, right, well I can either give a long explanation or I can just show you."
Aiko nodded.
S-Show me t-then, a-as long a-as it’s not dangerous…!
"Of course!" She smiled and went around behind Aiko, running her fingers through the other girl’s hair, it ending up swept over one shoulder as she whispered in her ear.
"So it’s kinda just stuff like this, it can be very calming and some people feel thing tingling in their heads."
Aiko was tense at first, since usually she hates it when people just touch her without her permission, but this was quite relaxing. Usually, she tenses up or starts hyperventilating, but this calmed her down.
Y...Yeah, I-I...
She trailed off, feeling her breathing steady.
Aiko had really, really kept to herself.
After things were announced, she locked herself in her room, only lwaving for food. Even...

"So hey, what’s your talent?"
Aiko smiled just a bit.
A-Ah, my talent? I-I’m an, um, astronomer! A-and you?
"Oh wow, that sounds really cool, my talent is ASMR."
Aiko tilted her head to the side.
A.. .SMR....? N-Not t-to be rude, b-but... w-what is... that...?

But she...
"Oh, right, I'm Sophie Dries." She wrapped an arm around the other girl, holding her close, "Nice to meet you too."
Aiko felt strangely calm in the embrace of the strange girl, her breathing calming. She sighed, fidgeting a bit with her hands.

But she had a problem. In her hand was her last anxiety…
She smiled real wide at the hand, setting the bowl aside and hoping off the counter. She shook her hand before giving her three kisses, alternating between cheeks.
Now that’s a actual greeting!
Aiko would’ve FREAKED normally, but she was a little too shocked.
She hadn’t gotten a greeting like that in forever.
U-U-u-U-Um I-I um, uu-u-uh-
She just sort of nodded.
Nice t-to… meet you…?
Aiko had really, really kept to herself.
After things were announced, she locked herself in her room, only lwaving for food. Even in the trials, she shrank to the ends of the room, never speaking.
But she had a problem. In her hand was her last anxiety pill. She stared at it, her hand shaking. She slipped it into her pocket and hobbled out of her room, heading for the food car.
Sophie was in the kitchen car, eating a bowl of what was likely her feelings on the counter. She tried to smile a little at Aiko as she entered, waving a little.
"Hey there."
Aiko turned to the voice. She hadn't seen that girl before. Then again, she had really isolated herself the last few weeks.
H-hello,
She said meekly, walking over to her, fiddling with her brown hair. The astronomer shook in her shoes, obviously nervous.
U-Um, I d-don't believe w-we've been properly introduced, if my memory serves me r-right... I-I'm Aiko. A-Aiko Fujioka.
She stuck out her tiny hand to shake the other girl's.

Hazuki stares blankly at the girl who just entered the car. She looks familiar, but somehow not familiar? Like she knows that she saw her somewhere before, but it feels like it’s been a long time? She scratches her head, trying to reach a name.
… Huuuuunnnnnyeeeeee…
— Aiko-chan!! Whoahhh! It’s Aiko-chan!!
She recognizes her!
Aiko-chan, long time no see! How are you?!
Just looking at her expression would’ve answered that question but Hazuki is Hazuki.
Aiko jumped in surprise as the... familiar girl greeted her. One of the only people she had talked to.
H-Hazuki-chan... I-Its been a while....
I-I'm, um...
She stood there for a second, hands shaking. A few moments passed before she burst into tears.
Poor girl.

The brunette paced the hallway, her hands shaking just slightly. Of course, the bear was lying, no WAY anyone was killing anyone, but… Then what WAS this? A dream? Simulation? Prank? Social experiment? She didn’t know, and it was worrying her. Worry worry worry.
WHEN CAN I JUST GO HOME!?!?!
Her last thought came out as more of a yell. She startled herself, taking a deep breath afterwards. Calm down, Aiko. Calm. Down. She wrapped her arms around herself, closing her eyes. She needed… water. And some fruit.
Her mouth was REALLY dry.
Sachiko had just walked from the lounge car to the dorm one when she say a girl pacing the hallway in front of her. She tilted her head, watching her walk back and forth, seemingly in a lot of thought. She knew to keep quiet, so she did just that, staying close to the door.
She jumped a little at the sudden outburst, blinking a few times. So the girl was thinking of home? Sachiko couldn’t help but feel bad. He doubted the bear would let them go…
She walked up to Aiko, raising her voice enough for the other to hear her. “Are you alright?”
Aiko turned at the sound of the other girl’s voice, trying to quickly compose herself.
H-Hm? M-Me? U-Um. y-yeah, I’m, um…
She shook her head as her voice slipped into its old quiet, stuttery voice.
Yeah, I-‘m fine. Just a bit stressed, s-sorry.
She smiled lightly at the girl.
Didn’t mean to alarm you! But, um, I don’t think we’ve met yet! I a-am Aiko Fujioka! The SHSL Astronomer! It is very nice to meet you.
"It’s alright. I understand." Sachiko stared at the girl, slightly surprised at the fact the girl was….shorter then her. Not by a lot, but still shorter. That never happened. She always had to look up to people.
"My name is Sachiko Inoue. I’m a SHSL Doll Maker. It’s a pleasure to meet you." Sadly she couldn’t return the smile, a blank look on her face in return. She begun to glance around at the hallway they were in, peering over to the other door.
"I was just walking around the train to see all the cars first hand. Would you like to join me?"
Aiko's smiled faded as the other remained blank faced.
A-Ah. Yes. Exploring. Maybe we could find some water.... or even a way out.

the horsehead nebula
Hazuki rocks back and forth a little, treating Aiko like she’s some sort of breathing body pillow.
Oo-ooongh! Right, right, this can’t be truth, it caaan’t! Something as outrageous and implausible and unrealistic as thing can’t possibly happen in this sort of life, indeedy! A bald-faced lie, it is!
She takes in a deep breath and puffs her cheeks up. Fugu fish don’t take no nonsense! She must become the fugu!
Aiko tries to /gently/ /gently/ pry the girl from her, just enough to stand up shakily and hold out a hand to help her up.
N-Not a very good one, either! Killing each other? Sounds like something out of a video game! I’m sure this is all a dream, or some weird test… A-Anyways..
She takes a deep breath and clears her throat.
My name is A-Aiko! Aiko Fujioka! Heiress, s-sort of, of the Astro Enterprise and the SHSL Astronomer! It is nice to meet you!
Hazuki stands up again, too, taking Aiko’s hand, and keeps being the fugu until she introduces herself, after which the gourmet immediately regains her previous energy.
Hi hi! I’m Hazuki Niwa, SHSL Gourmet, and hope we get along super well, SHSL comrade!
She clasps her other hand over Aiko’s as well and gives it a firm shake! (Ahh, what she wouldn’t give for a shake right now…) She gives a nice and sunny smile! Then there’s the sound of a wooden sword hitting a metal bear.
… Eh? Do you hear beeping?
Aiko looks over to the source of the sound. Looks like a.... Samurai, or something (what a dumb costume) hit the bear. And now he's beeping.
And exploding.
After an inital shriek of "OH MY GOSH" Aiko instinctively grabs Hazuki (how are they not dead, she also wonders), and speeds out of the car, coughing and shaking. An explosion.
T...T-T-T-The bear..... e-e-e.... e....
Aiko swallows the rest of her words along with another anxiety pill and collapses onto the floor, breathing deeply. She's exhausted, and she hardly woke up a bit ago.
How did the... car... not completely.... blow up....?
the horsehead nebula
After the astounding announcement from the bear, Aiko…. fell to the floor and crumpled into a ball, her anxiety rising in her chest. No. No. Aiko, no, where is your anxiety medication, where is it, calm down calm down calm down.
All she managed to do was take huge gasps of air and shake quite violently.
Hazuki, who was still clinging to the astronomer’s sleeve during the announcement, falls down with her. She is very jittery and shakes Aiko’s arm, her gaze still never leaving the stage.
What! What what what…
She clings and wraps her arms around the girl, both for her security and Aiko’s.
Whaaaat…
What sense of personal space?
Aiko is aware of soft, warm arms around her…
Aaaaaand back to reality. The floor is also warm, like the girl who was moments ago clinging to her sleeve. She takes a few more deep breaths before she feels in her pocket a bottle of pills. With shaky hands, she twists open the bottle and pours a pill or two into her palm and swallows it dry, her heart rate slowly falling back to a normal one.
H-He’s lying…. right?
