WEEK 1
[Well, this is...happening. This is a thing. This is your life now. The Commander is expecting you to just up and kill one another, and then try to get away with it. No big deal, right? You guys can handle this. You won't fall for what she has. She's clearly an idiot. A loud idiot, but still an idiot. She's not going to get one over you.
...Right?
In any case, the Commander's quarters are now open for anyone who decides they can actually stand to be in the same room as her, but beware - any favor you might ask of her is going to come at a price, and who knows what she'll ask you to do if you decide to gain a boon from her. Unless you're a suck-up like Baku - then she'll apparently be flattered. Maybe that's a good tactic to use?
Whatever you do, try not to murder the bread again. The Bread Did Nothing Wrong.
There are fifteen strangers in this place.]

[Well, if this is the difference in his nerves between killing his way out or not, might as well read it. It's far enough in the future for him that it doesn't matter, so he'll skim.
His face hardens in the middle, as one might expect. But in the end, he finds it after identifying several keywords to look for.]
According to this, the Reichstag is captured on April 30th, 1945, which marks the defeat of Nazi Germany. This Hitler you mentioned will also take his own life shortly after. The country of Japan... [Which he does not recognize, but it sounds kind of like the country he knows as Cipangu] ...surrenders after a weapon called the 'atomic bomb' is unleashed on two of their cities...
[But nothing about vampires.]
Shall I go on?
no subject
So next April, huh... no, no, you're fine to stop there. Thanks - and I mean it. Pretty silly of me, being all chicken, but... well, now I know. Even if I can't go home, the world's still going to be there.
[Vampire problem aside, anyway. But - he knows a girl who can take care of that even without him.]
no subject
I doubt we'll truly be here for the rest of our lives, but we must still do what we can to hold up in attrition. Even if it is but mental preparations.
no subject
[Y'know what? No. He is not making that joke, that's too morbid. There's a line and that'd be crossing it.]
Better to be ready as much as we can, you're right.
