“You sound very lucky. Have you told your brother you love him recently? It’s important to be upfront with your feelings when it comes to family.”

“Yeah, of course I have! I tell him every day, duh! And like when we talk on the phone and stuff like that! Isn’t that just normal?”

At least it was when it came to her brother. The rest of her family was a different story.

   Phi has never really been one for shopping. Well, excluding books, at least. She had thought that exploring the shopping district would give her a better idea of the kind of city this place is─ but she soon finds herself regretting that thought. Not only is there not enough information to provide her with the knowledge she so desires, but shopping just isn’t something Phi’s well-versed in. Especially so in the fashion department. 

   She’s almost surprised this place has such a thing. But, indeed, Phi finds herself standing among racks of clothes, an eyebrow raised as she browses the different articles. However, the girl soon finds herself rather… bored. Onto the next store, she figures. 

   Except, just as she’s leaving, a familiar pink-haired acquaintance slips into view. She’s here, too?

   “Clover?”

Since arriving in Hive City, Clover had spent a lot of time in clothing stores. A lot. First there was getting jackets, then new heels when she broke her old ones, and then of course, just basic things. And really, if she could shop, why shouldn’t she? 

She was comparing two blouses when her very important decision making was interrupted. Was that...? She turned, looking like a deer in headlights. A really cute deer, of course, but a deer all the same.

“Phi...”

This really was a conglomeration of espers, wasn’t it? She and Phi had never had any problems with each other, but they also had never been super close or anything. Phi was like Sigma, but it wasn’t really clear to her if she had chosen to be in this mess like he did. 

In a moment she switched, a bright grin taking the place of her deerly departed surprise. 

“Phi! It’s a good thing you’re here! Which one do you think I look better in? Pink or green?”

“Come on, of course I do. If I didn’t, we wouldn’t be here, in one way or another. And…”

Well it certainly sounds… off, but not impossible? Maybe his sense of reality finally snapped too hard that he’d buy to these things easily. He was 68 years old, though? Man, she probably had to deal with his wrinkly self. Gross.

“I believe you. Though.. I hope I’m a cool grandpa by the time I’m 68. Did something terrible happen, or are you just secretly a vampire and that’s why you still look so young.”

Okay, maybe that was a bit of a rude remark, but he couldn’t really help himself there.

It was strange how happy that made her. Just hearing him say that, just... him believing in her. Sometimes the amount of trust he had in her amazed her. She almost felt inadequate in comparison. Clover grinned, her nose crinkling up as she did.

“Thank you, Junpei.”

Were thanks necessary? She wasn’t sure, but it felt right for some reason. 

“I guess if you think bolo ties are cool.”

Even now she found herself joking with him maybe in part because he allowed that sort of atmosphere to still exist, despite everything. Still, there were things they needed to talk about, now that she was telling him everything. Or at least a few things. 

“ As for me... I’m 19, but I was cryogenically frozen for 45 years. To... participate in the third Nonary Game. With you.”

“Yeah, yeah, order whatever you want, I got this,” - he droned as he slipped onto his seat - “Just don’t wring me dry. A man’s gotta pay his electricity bills and shit. Pun not intended.” Har har har.

Aoi grabbed at the menu and stared at it. Haha, right, what the fuck was he supposed to do with yakiniku? Akane and himself rarely splurged on anything and even when they did, this hadn’t been on their bucket list. “You gonna walk me through this, or should I ask our waitress?”

[cloverbookmark]

“No no no, we don’t need her! I’m like an expert at this! Plus, they always try and fool you into buy the special courses by saying they’re a good deal when it’s actually more expensive! I’ve got this, okay?”

She flipped over her menu and laid it out in front of him, pointing as she explained.

“We’re gonna order this and share. It’s for two people and it comes all ready and set so it’s easy ordering, yeah? You just let me do all the talking and cooking! Do you think you can do that?”

She had been lucky, then. And Kyle had been unlucky. That was the nature of his father’s game–to create those possibilities. Where Clover was allowed to see the beauty of a bright future, Kyle felt himself growing nauseous. This was what he had spent his time to create? Akane’s death, Clover’s death, everyone’s? And… and whatever must have happened to him inside of that pod. The garden. Soporil.

“I suppose I must have been,” he said. “When I awoke, I had lost my memory… a common side effect of mild Soporil overdose.” Which was their intention, of course. The doctor and Akane could hardly have run the game if Kyle knew what he was participating in. “I don’t know about a pod in the garden, however. Are you saying I didn’t participate in the AB game at all?”

His head hurt. If Akane was in the suit, and Kyle was in the pod, then…

“Oh, in that case… feel free to refer to me as K instead. I assure you I don’t mind. If there aren’t a lot of others, doesn’t that simply make me easier to find, if need be? I don’t mind sticking out.”

She had a point about the ‘moon stuff’–the gravity–but something else caught his attention. Behind the mask, he frowned. (He wasn’t entirely ignorant, but this conversation was confusing and difficult enough without bringing another layer into it.)

He said, “When did you get the chance to see my face?”

[cloverbookmark]

“Of course you didn’t. You were sorta asleep for the whole thing... Would’ve been hard to play, ya know. Heh.”

She laughed weakly, but it was getting harder and harder to believe this was all a mistake, all amnesia. Eventually she’d have to come accept that this was some sort of reality, but she found herself avoiding that all the while. At least it wasn’t her reality, she repeated to herself. She knew that, she remembered correctly. She had to. If she had died, she definitely would have known. That’s just a thing a person’s aware of, right? It wasn’t like she could have amnesia or anything. After all she remembered everything pretty clearly.

“Sorry, but that’s kinda weird too. I mean like that’s the name Akane went by.”

How did Kyle even know about that? Why would he consider himself K? He acted as if the name was something Clover would be more comfortable with and it was familiar, but. K was the name of the person she spent a good portion of the AB Game with. Kyle was not that person. 

“The first time we met, or well, the first time I met you. When we opened the pod, you weren’t in the armor. And then afterwards, when you came and talked to me and Alice. You weren’t in the armor then either. Do you not remember any of that? I’m pretty sure you talked to the others too like Junpei and Quark, obviously Luna was taking care of you. And we all saw you in the pod too, but I mean I’m repeating myself. Wait, I guess it’s not all of us if you count Dio. But uh, I don’t think anyone cares about him.”

“I…” She didn’t seem to understand what went into a portrait, but he wasn’t sure how to explain that any more than he already had.  That, and she’d effectively stunned him badly enough that he didn’t actually have it in him to protest. “S, sure.” He took a few steps back and held the camera up to his eye.

“Just… act like yourself.” As long as he took these snapshots at a little distance, she should look fine.  She did fit right into the urban sitting, while still standing out from it.

Clover nodded energetically then paused for a moment, trying to think of what that meant. It wasn’t really a philosophical question, but it could be if you took it that way. She wasn’t gonna, though. She was a selfie expert, so she pretty much knew which poses and expressions she’d look cutest doing. 

She began to pose as such, waiting a few moments before switching to a another perfectly practiced pose. She did peace signs, folded her arms, lots of things. And every time she looked positively adorable. She just knew she did.

“Is this good?” she asked while changing poses yet again.

“Hehe, I could probably be a model, don’t you think?”
