12th Screw - Video/Action

Um... now that everyone is out of the hospital, I was curious.  Did anyone else remember something extra?  I still have a memory that I know isn't one of mine, and I'm pretty sure it didn't belong to the person whose memories I had during everything that happened.  If anyone knows anything about this, please call me back.  I've been worried about it, and I'd feel a lot better knowing it wasn't just me.

I wanted to apologize to you personally for the way I was acting before.  I know it wasn't my fault, but I feel really bad about the way I talked to you and how I was behaving.  Even if I had someone else's memories at the time, I still wasn't acting like a very good friend, and I'm really sorry.  I hope you'll forgive me.

[She bows her head very sincerely, frowning worriedly and looking all kinds of contrite.]

[This next call is going to be awkward no matter how she does it, so Nano decides to just be direct.]

Xion-san, I still have your coat.  I thought you'd probably want it back.  If you can bring the clothes I gave you too, I was planning to do some laundry this weekend...

Um!  I'll make some tea and cookies to share, so if you want to come over, I'll be around all day.

[Nano's seen this place before - it's pretty hard to miss, looming over the Aquarius District every morning on her way to school.  But it showed up a number of times in the memories she got from Xion, and there's still a few strange lingering memories of things she knew how to do that Nano isn't exactly sure how to deal with, so she's decided to come by and check it out for herself.  Of course, she has no idea that several of her friends actually live here, so she understandably looks a little nervous as she approaches the front gate.]

Do... do I just knock...?

...Masks?

[Hoshi raises her eyebrows in surprise. Well, this just got really interesting. And kind of disturbing, if she thinks about it.]

I remembered wearing a mask, too. There was an assembly of some sort. It was dark, and everyone there was disguised and masked.

I wonder if the two memories are connected, somehow.

In yours too?

[Nano's eyes go wide, and she immediately looks about twice as worried.]

I... I think they are.

Yes. They must be from the same person — or, considering the masks, the same group of people.

You have been here far longer than I, Shinonome-san. Do you have any idea who these masked individuals could be?

...Mmhmm.

[Nano nods, her expression suddenly very grave.]

There's a group called the Anoli that wears masks. They attacked a tournament a few months ago, and lots of people died.

[Well. That explains... not a lot, actually. :|a But at least she's getting somewhere, maybe.]

I see. That's troubling.

[To say the least.]

Is it possible that they were responsible for the recent incident? Though I do not know what they would gain by showing us their own memories, in that case.

[Nano shakes her head.]

I don't think it was them. Or at least, us getting their memories was a mistake.
