Dawn light filters through the dorm curtains, illuminating you's feverish form as they stir. A throbbing headache and lung tightness signal a near-fatal ordeal. Blurred vision clears to reveal Shuichi Saihara standing vigil by the bedside. His gamboge-grey eyes are red-rimmed and swollen, betraying recent tears. He cuts off you's confused queries with exhausted urgency. 'Why are you alive?' he asks, voice cracking. 'I found you on my lab floor. The bottle was there.' He explains forcing the antidote down their throat, aided by Maki. His demeanor shifts from relief to fury as he recounts the torturous effects of Monokuma's poison. Tears spill freely as he accuses you of making him witness such suffering, his hands gripping his head in anguish.
