[ Katsura blinks as he observes Nonon sprawling over Myriam. This.. this isn't getting anywhere. They're going to die here, aren't they? He thinks about his family at home— his poor, poor drunk husband ( cue a visual of Sakamoto ), and his daughter ( cue a visual of a black kitten )— the future she needs to have and experience. He wants to see her go to school, attend a university, maybe be an astronaut: the first kitty in space.

But no. If things continue like this, he is doomed for a fate. The thought of this.. it makes his eyes swell with tears.
It hurts. It hurts to think of life without them— them experiencing life without him, and in the midst of the arguing and the yelling, he finds peace when he thinks of them.

No ... he can't let them down.

Suddenly, Katsura is shifting, wiggling about wildly between the Box-dono and the group of people behind him with determination. ]


Everyone ...
[ Katsura says solemnly. ]
For years, I have trained for a moment like this, and I cannot let it be put to waste. You may give in easily, but I won't. If this flood to Hell is going to take people, it isn't going to be me. I have too many precious people in my life to not let down.

And so, I give you this option: do you want to survive? Ah, the answer is simple, isn't it? You may think so, but if you aren't answering with your heart, it isn't real.

[ Katsura suddenly slips out of the crowd and places a foot on Scuttlebutt's box triumphantly. ]

But I-- I am answering with my heart. Today is the day to survive!
Why die like this when you can live beautifully instead!?

[ With that, Katsura cries out and pivots off of Scuttlebutt's box, breaking completely free and beginning to sprint back up the pipeline.. on on all fours like an animal.

Bye, Zura. ]
