[Visual] Arcana IV - memento mori (it's still the 5th somewhere)
[March fifth. Graduation Day.
Minato has been scarce since the start of the month, even more quiet and withdrawn than normal. It isn't really characteristic of him, since he's usually on the go, always doing something. Finally he's been missing all day on March fifth.
The last day of his life.
With everything that's happened, he can't escape thinking about it. He's never been very good at dealing with his own troubles. He tends to shut down when he can't escape.
It's late at night, and the video opens to his cobalt blue dragonfly making distinctly worried kazoo noises. The last time this dragonfly made a video, Minato was sick and passed out in the woods. This time when it gets its jeweled eyes out of the way, Minato can be seen awake, but staring blankly at the sky. It's still cold, and he's underdressed for the snow he's laying in. He's been like this for a while if the dragonfly is resorting to using the orbs.]

video;
The dragonfly continues buzzing piteously. Its human isn't responding, how does it fix this? Minato looks so blank and unreadable, like he did before he moved back to Iwatodai. It's easier to hide than to let go.
He'll be hard to find, there's no indication of where he is....just snow. A pretty flat place, if sloping downward.]
video ->action;
Just hang on, okay? I’ll come find him.
[He scrambles around his house, trying to find a jacket for himself and one to hopefully fend off the cold Minato might get, and then rushes out into the snow, searching the area. It’s only thanks to the fact that desperation somehow equaled meticulousness that Ryoji manages to find his friend.]
action;
He blinks a bit when Ryoji comes into his view.] Ryoji-kun...? What are you doing here?
action;
Your dragonfly was worried and sent out an SOS. No wonder, you’re out here in the cold without any proper clothing… What’s going on?
action;
It's Graduation Day.
action;
[Ryoji forgets for a moment, but it’s easy to tell from the sharp inhale that he remembers soon after.]
...I’m sorry. It must be hard to remember that time.
action;
[Even Aigis hadn't remembered until a few days before she approached him. It was hard, knowing what was coming. Not being certain they'd remember the promise. Worrying about how his death would affect them.]
action;
[He slowly sits down beside Minato, tugging his scarf tighter and burying his frown in its bright folds.]
