[It’s a sack of pancake mix because I love you.

Anyways, once he picks it up, a barrier is moving over the two of them.]

Um...

[crashout]

[BEGONE, THOT.

In all seriousness he's holding this sack of pancake mix and suddenly sees the shimmering out of the corner of his eye.]

What the fuck is going on now? [And he's grabbing her arm to try and pull her out of the way, but the barrier's closing in just a little too fast.]

[uncurtained]

[She doesn’t resist as he pulls her, but neither of them can avoid the barrier as it closes around them and the pancake mix vanishes.]

...Any ideas for how to get out?

[crashout]

[He's still holding her hand, but he's using the free one to poke at the barrier as if it'll pop on its own.]

Unless you're carrying a knife and forgot to tell me? I'm out of good ideas. [Don't ask what his bad idea is.] Wait where'd the bag go?

[uncurtained]

I wouldn't worry too much about the bag right now. And... Yeah, I'm not in the habit or carrying around a knife.

[She says, but at nearly the same time... He'll experience something.]

[crashout]

[He experiences something and wow, sure is weird to be seeing this from Beck's perspective. The first thing that Junpei's own consciousness picks up is "wow, what a douche" but as the memory's lived and comes to a close, he blinks his eyes as if to clear his vision and stare at Beck openly.

...hm. Bad.]

...guy seems like kind of a dick. [Lightly, and casually, and maybe a tiny bit judgmental.]

[uncurtained]

[She blinks, looking his way with a frown.]

Wait, what guy? What's going on?

[crashout]

Huh? [Wait.] Wait did you not...see what I just saw? Some blonde guy arguing about how a blowjob is linked to cancer...?

[uncurtained]

Wait, how did you...

[She pauses.]

You saw that? But, how?

[crashout]

I don't know? I'm used to seeing my own memories, not someone else's. Mostly. [Hm.] Also seriously, Beck, you still slept with him after that? And right in front of your window?

[He doesn't get to say much more about it though because he looks at her and soon she finds herself seeing something else until 3:23.]

[uncurtained]

Okay, you don't get to judge me after just seeing one...

[She doesn't get to finish that, though, because memory time! She shakes her head as if to clear it once all that's over, and then looks towards Junpei.]

...Oh my god, you put it on the wrong hand.

[crashout]

[He, unfortunately, immediately knows what she's talking about and flushes pink.]

Stop. Stop right there, it definitely looked left from where I was standing!

[uncurtained]

You're blushing.

[She's definitely laughing a little bit, sorry Junpei.]

[crashout]

I am not blushing! [He says as he proceeds to blush even further. The barrier shimmers around them and breaks, but he doesn't move.] Isn't it the thought that counts?

[uncurtained]

...It was sweet. She's really pretty, too. Seems like you caught a good one.

[crashout]

[...he's embarrassed but there's a soft smile anyway.]

...in spite of everything? I did. [The timelines they aren't together, the things Akane did, the things he can't forgive her for...she's the one he's crazy about even now. There's an equally quiet laugh and a mumble under his breath, hand running through his hair.]

I never got to move the ring back before I got here. So...that's one of the first things for me.

[uncurtained]

Gotta make it official, right?

[She shoves at his shoulder a little.]

I'm happy for you.

[crashout]

[He stumbles back just once when she shoves, but there's a sheepish smile.]

Thanks. It was...I went there to find her, but Carlos is the one who told me to tell her and stop wasting time. So I kind of owe it to him in the first place.

[A beat.] Sometimes I miss her like crazy.

[uncurtained]

...We'll be out of here soon. I believe that.

[Maybe.]

[crashout]

Yeah, I know. [Just not soon enough. He's folding his arms over his chest again and taking a step away from where the barrier was.] So until then I'm doing what I have to in order to survive.

[...something occurs to him then.] Do you know anything about where those marks came from on you, Escha and Kagachi by the way? I meant to ask.

[Also he's gonna go back to Beck's memory in a second.]

[uncurtained]

[After a moment, she nods.]

Yeah, I know where they came from now.

[crashout]

[...]

Your choice for the week?

[uncurtained]

...No, actually. Something different.

[crashout]

...can you tell me what? [Wait. What?]

[uncurtained]

[She pauses, then sighs.]

I probably can, but...
