[Yep. Yeah. Okay. Mitsuru just sounds so apathetic... she's never heard her like that before. Even if she hadn't seen how deeply it was affecting Scott, she'd have reason for concern. On the other end of the line, Kotone smiles, trying to inject her usual cheer into her voice.]
I have to come over your place and get something. Is that okay?
[Can Mitsuru even feel alarm like she is right now? Kotone doesn't want to alarm her, so best to act like everything is normal until she gets there.]
[ Ordinarily Mitsuru would be questioning what exactly it is that Kotone needs to get from her place but this version of Mitsuru is... well, apathetic is an understatement. When she's not bouncing between that and ridiculous levels of sorrow.
Getting her to agree therefore, isn't exactly difficult. ]
That's fine. I'll let you in if Shinjiro doesn't I suppose.
[ She guesses?? She isn't even sure if Shinjiro is in right now or not given that she hasn't vacated her room all day. ]
[She'd be coming over whether or not Mitsuru actually agreed, but it's nice that she did agree. And she even offered to let her in!
Kotone's gotten pretty comfortable just trying the door to let herself into any of her friend's houses (with just a cursory knock out of politeness!), but in this case, it doesn't matter whether the door is locked or not. She's going to stand there in front of the door and just knock.
[ It's an excellent ploy to force Mitsuru to leave her room - a fact that probably isn't lost on Mitsuru herself either. She just wants the incessant knocking to stop at this point so she will make her way to the front door to answer it.
The door opens slowly, almost as if the occupant is still feeling reluctant to receive anybody. Which is totally what is happening here. ]
Shiomi.
The door was unlocked.
[ As if she suddenly expects people to just walk on in ordinarily. Apparently she has little care whether someone strolls right on in as long they don't bother her while they do it. ]
Abruptly, she grabs Mitsuru's hand and yanks, bodily trying to pull her out of the house. She's intimately familiar with the urge to just stay in bed because nothing feels like it's worth doing, and she'd seen how this corruption had already affected Scott. If there's a risk that the people afflicted could lose control of their powers... best to make sure they're around Dazai so they can be contained.

Knock-knock.

Senpai! Can you open the door for me?
