Summary
Ren knows something is wrong, no one quite seems to be themselves, and on top of that the dead are walking, from Wakaba sitting in Leblanc to the very alive Akechi that walked through the door, things are not right.
He could bear it if his best friend was by his side, but instead of being right next to Ren where he feels free, his best friend is out at track practice.
Or
Third-semester fic that I made because ‘how did we meet again’ has the potential to hurt like hell but Altus was too focused on hurting Akechi fans.
Consider this the Royal version of “In this reality of yours (where do I belong)”
