Video

[This is the first time Komeada has used the network to broadcast anything himself. He's smiling, though that's pretty typical for him, but there's a slight awkwardness to it.]

It would seem that by happenstance I've become a father.

[He sighs deeply, it is a rather purposeful sigh.]

I'm at a bit of a loss of what to do now though. I've been trying to look up information on how to go about it but the recourses are a bit lacking.

Biology was never really something I looked too deeply into. It seems a bit unlucky to be burdened by this so suddenly.


[He brightens at the next part though.]

However, I guess it is a rather lucky encounter to be bestowed a life to nurture!

Even though I was assaulted and insulted in the process.


[He sighs again, this one more genuine.]

Now I feel rather tired. So... yes, if someone could please help me, I don't really have enough stamina left to try and figure this out right now.

[And he does look rather drawn and tired. Paler than usual.]

[ That's when Undyne makes her grand appearance in the video feed, but not before setting off any number of crashes and explosions in the background? Did half the base just go up in flames? Sure sounds like it, but that's hardly important. Anyway... ]

What's up, buttmunches?! I'm a MOM now and if any of you losers even THINK about coming near MY egg-- [ She will fight Komaeda for it for custody!! Except not really. She'll share, just very badly, because that's Undyne. BUT EVERYONE ELSE STAY AWAY. ] --I'll make you regret it!

SO STAY AWAY FROM MY EGG!

[ A beat, and then: ] Oh! And uh... stay outta the Void, okay? It's too dangerous out there for you nerds.

We're not using your luck. Sit down, will you?

[For as exasperated and slightly annoyed as his voice is, he's still fairly gentle as he lowers Komaeda to the closest bed. Then it's to the medicine cabinet. He can read the labels thanks to the translator, but it's still all weird medical speak to him.]

Um...

[Where's Valentine or Tsumiki when you need them...? He carefully goes through the different cabinets, finally emerging with a bottle of iron supplements. He doesn't trust himself not to grab the wrong medication, but iron supplements he can understand.]

What about this? I'm sure Tsumiki or Valentine could help you find the other ones you mentioned, but this should help some, right?

You should have said that to start with!

[Ugh. Hinata moves in to hand off the pill bottle before looking around for a cup so he can get the other some water.]

You should probably carry some of these with you when you leave the base. Just in case something like this happens again.

[And here's a cup of water. Don't die on him now.]

[Hinata inhales deeply and sighs again through his nose, again trying to muster up as much patience as he can. It's something he can't understand; being willing to just die. Hadn't they learned anything from what Gundam and Nidai did for them all...?]

It's okay. Getting treatment... I'm sure that will help. You just have to be willing to get it.

[He crosses to a bed facing the other and pushes himself up onto it to sit and face the other boy, resting his head in his hand with more than a little exhaustion.]

I refuse to see any more of us die.

...

[Hinata stays quiet, letting the other boy take his pill without pressing him for more detail yet. If Komaeda wanted to talk, he'd talk. Or he'd bring their conversation to an end and tell Hinata to leave him alone. So Hinata stays sitting there, dropping both hands to let them dangle by his knees. His posture is open, ready to listen, even if there's still hints of suspicion lining his face.

Komaeda could be lying. Messing with him, trying to come up with some kind of malicious machination that Hinata couldn't even fathom. But as much as it would be easier to dismiss everything that came out of the other boy's mouth as a total lie... this sounds too sincere.

When Hinata finally does speak again, it's not until it's clear Komaeda's not going to continue. His voice is low and quiet, tinged with uncertainty.]


You're still thinking about it all wrong, Komaeda. I'm not... saying you can't be scared of something like that. Who wouldn't be...? But... isn't you being here a kind of luck? Who knows if it's good or bad just yet, but if you think of it as bad luck, being... being trapped on an alien planet with no way of getting home... wouldn't it be natural to find a treatment here? Good luck has to come from bad. Isn't that right?

[Not... that Hinata personally believes that kind of thing exactly, but it's what Komaeda's said before. And even if he rejected it before, maybe this time... it can be somewhat comforting?]

Besides. Do you still believe in whatever "hope is sleeping inside of me?" [His tone is wry and self-deprecating, lips quirking up into a half-hearted attempt at a smile.] If I say that you being cured thanks to the proper treatment is my hope right now...?

[He just tilts his head, one step short of rolling his eyes in exasperation at the other boy. He... honestly doesn't know how to answer that. He's relieved, on one hand, to know that one of his classmates is here where he can try to keep them safe. Away from Monokuma, away from the tragedy of the island.

But also... Komaeda is unpredictable, and even with all his reassurances, trust once broken is not so easily fixed.]


Yeah... who knows, maybe one will show up here. People seem to just appear without any pattern these days.

[He pushes himself to his feet, though, shoving his hands in his pockets.]

Get some rest, Komaeda. I'm sure Tsumiki or Valentine will be back soon. I want you to talk to them then and tell me what they say. And... Komaeda.

[He looks at him again, more seriously this time.]

It's fine if you don't want to always tell me the truth, but... at least be honest with them. They'll try to help you.

[That's... probably the best he's going to get out of someone like Komaeda. Hinata shakes his head and pulls a hand out of his pocket to run through his hair distractedly. He's trying to figure out just how he can make sure Komaeda does follow through, but... this time, it seems, he has to trust him.

But he's already turned around to leave when Komaeda mentions that last bit, and he pauses, turning with a frown.]


...What? Who's Fukuro-chan?

[Bag-chan? Tell him Komaeda didn't name the egg after a bag, that'd be absurd even for him.]

[Is that... really a good idea?

He just sighs and nods.]


Make sure you tell Undyne you've named the egg... I think she's going to want to know. And might make you change it if she doesn't like it.

You guys are in this together, whether you want to be or not.

[What a mess... he just sighs and shakes his head in some resignation. As soon as he leaves here, he's going to call Dave and see what he thinks about the egg. For now... apparently he needs to get used to the idea of people like Komaeda and Undyne being parents.]

If you're really dedicated to raising whatever hatches from this egg... you're going to have to work together with her. That's all I meant.

[Just shakes his head again. How does Komaeda keep ending up in these kinds of absurd situations...? Is luck really so powerful?]
