[As you play the music on the first sheet, you see a memory. It’s filled with self loathing - you should have known better. You should have been more careful. It wasn’t only yourself that you doomed; you got someone else killed with you. The guilt almost makes you sick.]
[As you play the second piece, you see a memory. The entire time, your thoughts are rushing. You can’t breathe, you can’t calm down. And when all is said and done… It’s full of disappointment and pain. This was the moment everything was going to change for you. This was the moment you were going to finally reach everything you’ve been hoping for and working for these past years… And in the span of several moments, you’ve ruined it. Now you have nothing.]
[Halfway through the piece, Tama's hands start shaking. He starts going off course and making mistakes and by the end of the piece, he jerks his hands off the piano and sets them in his lap. He feels a pit in his stomach and a crushing weight on his shoulders. Like all that stuff he felt in the closet just hit again at the worst possible time.
...
He grabs the last sheet.]
Y....y'know what, Roc? I can handle this last one, you just sit tight.
[Trying not to show how bothered he is, only kinda succeeding.]
[The third piece brings you a memory of you laying in your bedroom. It’s shortly after your first trauma game; you were killed, and you know why. It’s because you all panicked. If you took a moment, if you kept calm… Things might have turned out differently. You have yourself to blame, and not only for your own death - you should have been intelligent enough to keep this from happening to the rest of your team.
As you finish playing the final piece, the pages crumple and twist on their own as words begin to appear on them: fuck up, mistake, idiot, among others, begin to spread across each sheet of paper.]

Re: CLUB
[ she. she has a hunch? maybe? ]
Re: CLUB
Bumblebees are cool, I guess?
Re: CLUB
And my vote would've been "Moonlight Sonata." But, well. . . we might as well start from the top.
[he places the sheet music down and sits in front of the piano, cracking his fingers before he begins to play Symphony No. 5 - 3. Largo first]
[IT'S SO WEIRD TO SUDDENLY KNOW HOW TO PLAY PIANO???]

[round two for watching and/or remembering Aoko dying, get]
Re: CLUB
You okay?
Re: CLUB
[he says a bit stiffly before he sucks in a deep breath]
I'm fine. It was another memory. Damn it, Opal, I already told you that wasn't your fault.
Re: CLUB
Maybe I should handle the next one.
Re: CLUB
I think I'm kinda beginning to understand what we're supposed to do in here.
Re: CLUB
[He sits down and cracks his knuckles.
FLIGHT OF THE BUMBLEBEES.]

Re: CLUB
[there's a bit of concern in Kaito's voice]
How many of her memories have you experienced so far? I've only seen one.
I can take the last one, if you'll let me.
Re: CLUB
[ YOU BOTH SEEM REALLY BOTHERED BY THESE ]
Re: CLUB
[He lets out a sigh and stands up.]
Just...just. Brace yourself. Okay, Roc?
Re: CLUB
Re: CLUB
[ she sits down on the chair, turns the music sheets to the last song, and... begins to play. even though she has no idea how. ]

Re: CLUB
That's not true, Natalie. No one could be expected to perform perfectly in those kinds of situations. And it was your first. No one would blame you.
Re: CLUB
...
[Tama puts a hand on her shoulder. He doesn't know exactly what happened in the memory, but...he can guess the gist.]
We'll make sure she knows. After we help her out here.
