[On one hand, Yuta was smart enough to figure he probably shouldn't leave his room too much today for the sake of his sanity!

On the other, he totally forgot he left his phone on because it's just no fun otherwise. The video portion is pointed at the ceiling, but it's not that hard to make out what Yuta's saying. After all, no point in fighting the urge to talk if no one's around to hear, right?]

Just what the heck was up with that memory? It was so weird, it had to be a dream. Dead rabbits and people turning into plants?

...Ugh. Talk about a troublesome guy. And he tried so hard to kill his own daughter and son...

...

Even I couldn't kill anybody in the end. And it's better that way.

[There's a creaking and a thud. Sounds like he just flopped on his bed.]

I can't stop thinking about that stupid Taisuke either. Geeze! It felt safer when I was with him, but I can take care of myself here just fine.

...

Hope he's okay, back at home. It was a long time ago, but if there's still Comrades like me around, there might have been others still trying to attack him...

I don't know... I realized I kept wanting to talk about everything, so I just kind of started talking to myself to get it all out.

Then probably the whole monologue. Sorry.

...That's what I was afraid of.

I'd ask if you wanna talk about it, but truth be known you probably can't help it right now unless you cover your mouth. Seems to be a THING lately.

Yeah... that's why I stayed in my room. I can't believe I forgot to check my phone before I started talking, though.

...

It's just... a really creepy memory. From when I was about 8 or so.

You're talking to a guy who may or may not have seen all his friends become big blue monsters. I think I can handle creepy.

...

I don't remember why, but I was trying to protect this girl from another Comrade - another person with powers like me. He was her father, but he was like the other Comrades. He... thought it was his job to show everyone death.

His power was the ability to trap people in illusions, so he made us see things like baby rabbits bursting out of other rabbit corpses, and people turning into plants, and-

...And my mom as if she was alive again.

Ugh, sounds horrible. At least it was illusory, I suppose, but I can see how that would affect you. So your mother is dead then?

Yeah. She died during the Nightmare Week, when the suicide virus was going around too.

...I almost followed her, but it's because I didn't that I have my powers. And it's because of those that my dad called me a monster.

[Wow, yeah, he just... really can't hold any of it back now.]

Wow. It makes me feel like I don't really have any room to complain. At least my life outside of that mansion was normal enough.

I think I went back to having a normal life after a while, but I don't know how long that lasted since the next thing I remember from around then was raiding an American military base.

...Darn it!

Uh, do you want me to stop talking to you until you feel less obliged to blurt out incredibly incriminating memories to me?

Yes please. That would be really great.
