Move along, move along just to make it through
WHO: Makoto, OTA
WHAT: THE BOY IS BACK! And is feeling super confused and guilty.
WHERE: The Village in the Marsh.
WHEN: Sometime before the sleepover
WARNINGS Guilt, bad memories, attempted abduction
Hope of Morning
[Waving goodbye to the Ferryman before entering the village, Makoto's small and tired smile falls as he looks around at the huts. He tried to not show it to the Ferryman but he feels awful for getting lost and leaving the group. After all, he had chewed out Nagito for doing so and he hadn't been lost for as long as Makoto was! How did he even get lost so thoroughly?! He swears he just went out for a quick look!
Sighing to himself, he shakes his head before moving deeper into the village, looking around for anyone he knows. As he looks, he calls in a small and hesitant voice to anyone who might hear him.]
Komeda-kun? Frieda-san? Anyone here? It's me. I-I'm back.
[Oh he hopes the others have been okay without him. He hopes they didn't worry too much about him. Especially Nagito and Sunny. He had promised them that he'd never leave them. Another promise broken Makoto. He shakes off that whisper that threatens to drown him in memories as he waits for a response.]
100 bad days
[Makoto opens his eyes groggily as he feels the ground sway, grumpily grumbling to himself about what has woken him. He was having a good rest unlike usual! No nightmares or anything! Tempted to forget about it, he closes his eyes again when the ground moved again. What is it this time? Forcing himself up, he looks around the hut and sleepily watches as the shadows on the wall continue swaying. Why was it swaying?
Turning to look out the door, his eyes widens as he sees the outside slowly move past the door. What?! Now wide awake, he scrambles to get to his feet as he feels the sways increase in length and speed. Rushing to the door, he looks outside and gasps when he sees the village slowly getting farther away from him.]
What the?! H-Help!
Aftermath
[After his rather stressful wake up call, Makoto can be found looking at the small huttlets fondly if exasperatedly as he watches them play together. Chuckling when he sees two roughhouse and then squabble amongst themselves, he hums in amusement as he hears someone approach him.]
They're much cuter when they're not trying to abduct me.

Hope of Morning (CW: implied hallucination)
Well, he thought it was a hallucination at first.
After all, the owner of the voice had been missing for so long, and the mist liked to play tricks on people…
But then it rings out again. And again. And again - little hesitant calls for people familiar to them both, which has Sunny closing his book and heading for the doorway.
His head pops out of the entryway door just as Makoto seems to walk by.]
…
[Sunny stares, one eye blinking in almost disbelief (the other is covered by a white cloth - one of the ripped edges of an extra bedsheet, as the orange scrap of Kel’s shirt is drying). Then…]
…! [That’s actually Makoto, right?!]
Re: Hope of Morning (CW: implied hallucination)
Ferryman-san is here so the others have to be here, right? Maybe they went exploring?
[Maybe I should go looking for them? ...No, I'll just try again. Nodding to himself in determination, he calls out again.]
Komaeda-kun! Frieda-san! Anyon-!
[Just then, he sees a head pop out of the hutt near him. Jumping from nerves, he lets out a small gasp when he recognizes the face. It is Sunny! His eye is covered with a different cloth this time but there is no mistaking that expression.]
S-Sunny-kun!
[Feeling like a weight had lifted, he lets out a small huff of a laugh before grinning widely at the teenager.]
no subject
…Which meant he took two steps out of the hut and grabbed for Makoto’s sleeve. Real.
That solidified it for him, his eye widening again and something like relief running through him.]
You’re… back…!
[His speech is breathy with excitement, and he looks around like he’s looking for someone - probably Nagito, he would be so relieved! - before remembering that everyone else was out…] Others… exploring…
