[It would have been foolish to like it, of course, after what the Investigation Team had seen and done here. There was nothing but pain and bad memories for that part. But... sometimes (okay all the time) Ayumi remembers that this is the manifestation of someone's psyche. There is someone down here who, deep in her heart of hearts, really... wants this.]
[Adachi... well, Ayumi thought she understood the young detective, for what seemed like a long time. She was always being nice to the Team, dropping by for dinner, trying to be bitter and horrible to Nanako but never succeeding for too long. They had a thing going -- a very strange thing, but a thing nonetheless. Ayumi wanted to believe that the time they spent together was real, and not just another part of her delusion.]
[Ayumi wanted all of her friends to be happy. All of them. Including Touko Adachi.]
[The teenager stands at the very entrance of the dungeon, hands by her sides. They are empty. Ayumi doesn't plan to pull any tricks. If Adachi does... well, she'll jump that hurdle when she comes to it.]
[Still, she says nothing. Because either way, her friend will know.]
