No, that's right, you don't.

But isn't it weird that none of our friends remember a thing about me? And isn't it super weird that they're totally convinced you're one of them? It's almost like you've brainwashed them or something, Chiaki-chan~

Is that your talent, then? Super High School Level Liar? Super High School Level Butting-In-Where-She-Doesn't-Belong?

It's Super High School Level Gamer.

[Not giving her the satisfaction though she really is kind of rattled by all of this, given the timing.]

I didn't do anything to them. Maybe they just don't want to remember you anymore.

text

[despairalicious]

And why wouldn't they want to remember me anymore, Chaiki-chan? They seemed perfectly happy remembering e-ver-y-thing last time I saw them.

You know what I think? I think you know, don't you? Who they are and what they did. You know eeeeeverything, don't you? Isn't that interesting?

[ she's bluffing and she wants to find out exactly what Chiaki knows -- rattling her into letting something slip should do the trick. ]

text

[virtualgirl]

[And it might work, too... but she's also giving Chiaki information about herself in the process. When she's likely from, what she knows. The last Junko knew far too much about her, but this one seems to be at least somewhat in the dark.]

Of course I know. We're friends...

Re: text

[despairalicious]

even though you're lying to them?

that's not much of a friend, is it, chiaki-chan? no matter what awful things you think i've done, ive never once lied to any of them.

oh, maybe you're setting them up to feel the Despair of knowing of of their friends is a big fat liar and keeping things from them? such a good idea!

text

[virtualgirl]

It's your fault.

[Did Junko strike a nerve? Or is Chiaki just annoyed at her in general, regardless? ... Yes?]

text

[despairalicious]

My fault. How cute! You're the one telling them big fat lies and yet it's somehow my fault? Chiaki-chan really is too cruel.

Would they still be your friends, I wonder, if I told them the truth about you? And them?

text

[virtualgirl]

I wouldn't have to if you'd stayed dead.

[Ouch. That's... about as close to condoning actual real life killing as Chiaki will ever get. But it's not quite the same. Junko's supposed to be dead. It's the landlord's fault she's alive again. That's different, right?]

It doesn't matter. You wouldn't tell them everything.

[Junko can't reveal the truth about Chiaki without revealing the truth about herself. Not completely. And who would believe her without all the facts?]

text

[despairalicious]

Stayed dead? Don't be silly, Chiaki-chan. Mukuro-chan might have died looking like me, but I wasn't the one who actually died.

And wouldn't I? You're totally a hundred percent underestimating what I'd do for the sake of Despair. Upupupu!

text

[virtualgirl]

[Huh... this Junko doesn't know? That gives Chiaki some interesting information to work with. No matter what Junko says, she at least can't possibly know the whole truth.

Even so... that last part still rattles her a bit before she can reply.]

It doesn't matter. Even if I end up all alone... I don't think they'll ever go back to you. They can't...

[despairalicious]

And what? You think you're going to save them, Chi~a~ki-chan~?

Face up to the fuckin facts dumbass! You're as big of a liar as I am and that's really saying something.

[virtualgirl]

No. They're going to save themselves.

[They have to. That's the way the plan works...]

Even if I am... there's no way I'm as bad as you.

[despairalicious]

Maybe, maybe not. We'll just let them decide once they find out you've been telling them big fat lies.

[virtualgirl]

[Junko's timing on this couldn't have been more perfect. With Chiaki's sister gone, she's feeling lonely and vulnerable and right now she's tired of dealing with this conversation. And maybe a little terrified that Junko's right, and she'll lose her most precious friends in an even worse way than how she lost Mary.

She's not even going to respond right now. In fact, she's probably running to find her mother for some much-needed hugs.]
