Nagi felt stupidly right on the money about Hitomi. The way she lovingly gazed and clutched upon her game device drew even more exasperated mental sighs from her. Nami might have been the better choice to talk to Hitomi, but Nagi had to make do with circumstances as these. Hopefully, the dormitory arrangements were temporary. A multiple personality issue stayed poorly hidden in common living area.
At least she came up with an excuse about herself and Nami that seemed to work. Well, Nami came up with the excuse, but Nagi had to introduce it.
Nagi knocked on the door nearest to the stairs. "This one's mine," she said coldly, though the tone of her words felt like paper in her mouth. She turned around to Hitomi and tried to smile that was trembling at its edges and showing more teeth than she needed.
"I'm Isa Nami," uttered Nagi, still holding onto the strange smile on her face.
She rushed down the stairs to the ground floor, her heeled footsteps breaking the awkward tension with Hitomi, at the very least. The dark blonde-haired male that would have been known as Youhei, the black-haired man that looked a little too familiar to Nagi, and Kirijo Yoromatsu. The previous conversation they had escaped Nagi's attention, but she did notice the smile that Yoro had was probably the same as the one she forced upon her face upstairs.
"Mr. Kirijo?" Nagi directed her voice politely towards Yoro, attracting his attention. Picking up her own photo (of her dressed like her normal attire) from her pocket, she held it out for him to see.
"This is my brother. Nagisa." Her voice sounded rehearsed, and after a few hours of practice in front of the mirror in the morning, it had to be. "He'll be coming into here sometimes, in my place. Let him have access to whatever we—"
Nagi took a deep breath, as if she tripped up on her own words. She sometimes used the word 'we' in place of 'I'.
"—I have. At least until I move out."
