Hospital
Peter looks up at the ceiling for a while before looking over at Whisper. "My name's Peter."

Heheheheh, well, be seeing you later! Get well soon, Aichi!
(And thus the two Cosmic Lovers members of Cosmic Compiler leave their cardfighter friends alone in the hospital room.)

“...Thank you, Peter.”

"...Hey. Look over here," Peter says.

-Looks over, tilting her head-

Peter is holding his intact arm over the railing of his bed, his pointer finger and thumb enclosed in a circle.◊

-...She seems confused-
Hospital
"...Oh, yeah."
Peter raises his arm back to his side, slowly. "It's — a prank where I'm from. You're not supposed to look at the sign."

-...She silently goes back to the window-
-...Whisper doesn’t seem the pranking type-

"...Sorry."

-KNOCK KNOCK ON THAT DOOR AICHI!-
LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!Hospital - Aichi's Room (Aichi)
-It's been a while since Leos and Sthesia came to visit, and right now Aichi's just... in bed.-
-It's still difficult to move, but he's feeling a little better... medication is helping...-
-...? Huh? Someone's here?-
"You can come in...!"
-He's not being overly loud, just loud enough to be heard.-
Hospital
-Koata opens the door and comes in- Aichi are you okay?!
LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!Hospital - Aichi's Room (Aichi)
-Oh, it's Koata...!-
-Aichi definitely seems happy and relieved to see him...-
"Koata...! I'm glad you're all right..."
-Oh... Himself?-
-His smile grows sheepish at that. He's still pretty darn uncomfortable, but he can't say something like that...-
"O-Oh, um... I'm all right... I feel much better than when I woke up."
Hospital
Oh… um, I heard you got attacked and had to come here. I hope it isn't too bad.
LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!Hospital - Aichi's Room (Aichi)
-Ah... Misaki told him, then...-
"...Yeah. I'm fine though..."
-He's more glad that everyone else is OK...-
"He was trying to find you for some reason... I... have a bad feeling about him..."
-The way he sensed power like Koata's... and the way the guy was acting...-
"...I sensed power from him... Like yours..."
Hospital
Yeah but um... I saw him and all he did was throw the cards he stole at me.
But um—I would say he's looking for a different one. But fi he's similar to me I don't think there are any others.
LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!Hospital - Aichi's Room (Aichi)
-He... just threw the cards at Koata? That's all?-
"..."
-That's...-
-...Did Aichi misunderstand everything...? Did he jump to conclusions...?-
-Suddenly Aichi has no idea what to think. He didn't do anything at Card Capital other than steal cards... and he didn't do anything to Koata other than throw the cards...-
-...-
-...Did... Aichi let paranoia get the best of him...?-
"...He said your name, Koata. He was looking for you, and asked me where you were... He didn't say why..."
-Koata can tell that Aichi's feeling extremely conflicted and unsure of himself now.-
-What if that guy really wasn't someone he should have worried about...?-
-...Did he attack someone that didn't mean any harm...?-
-Although... there's something else that's still bothering him...-
"...It was strange... He knew me and Card Capital, too... I never met him before then, but..."
-Why and how...?-

Hmmm... I'm not sure...
-… wait aichi, wasn't there another Koata you met?-
-maybe... older?-
LOVE IS STORED IN THE AXOLOTL!Hospital - Aichi's Room (Aichi)
-...The older Koata...!-
"...!"
-Aichi looks like he may have realized something...-
-However... can he really say anything...? Time paradoxes, altering the timeline...-
-Darn it, what should he do in this situation...? He can't even begin to picture someone trying to avoid such damage to the timeline...-

Meanwhile, back at the Excelsior Outpost (Ryusei)
-Ryusei suddenly gets chills down his spine, and wraps his arms around himself.-
"...B-Brr..."
-He can't help but feel very nervous for some reason...-

"...I guess we'll need to keep an eye out for another you..."

-Andy knocks on Trudy's door-
-Anya is in Trudy's bedroom, reorganizing everything with loud classic rock playing, so she doesn't hear the doorbell-
TRUDYLAND
and... the DOOR OPENS
"...! Andy! Hello!"
And then there was silenceApartments
"Aunt Kora and Eve had a fight and there was yelling, can I come in?"

a noticeable pause, but she (barely) manages to keep her smile
"Of course! Come right in, help yourself!"
And then there was silence

“...Saved me from Infinite.”
-She walks over to the window and starts looking out of it-
-Seems she’s resolved to keep watch-
