[ Hi, Lex. Enjoy a message coming through to you around lunchtime. ]

Hi Spark! 彡☆
It's (Say)ori! I had some questions for my senior here at Folkmore whenever you're free
I'm helping a friend learn more about Thirteen and how we end up here __φ(．．) If anything mysterious has happened or what Thirteen says if you ask to go home...!!
I guess it's good to know in general too (・∀・*) Just because we voluntarily got stuck here doesn't mean we shouldn't know everything about where we are!

I hope you're having a good time, Spark!

[ Surprise, Sparky, it's a message from Sayori--two photos, specifically.

One shows ahead across a spacious yet wooded area, the hint of a stream in view, but falling away into the trees. Flowers are in bloom where they're scattered about, and despite the nice weather visible, it has Epiphany's signature nostalgic tint in the photo.

The second one is shot lower, revealing a picnic blanket (chequered, red and white) and the very edge of smooth knees. But what's actually the focal point is a cross-stitch of a flower taking place. There's a notebook to the side, and her goat plush leaning against a small basket, next to a thermos. ]

This is my adventure for today! I went out farther than I ever have around this part... the mood here is like an old friend~ It really makes me think.

[ It's nighttime when this photo comes in, and it shows a view of Epiphany's night life from Satori Hills, though the apartments aren't in view. Only the dazzling lights from different sources can be seen, as well as a glittering of stars above. ]

Just like a painting, even things that aren't real can make us feel things. I hope you don't feel sad tonight, Spark.
Tomorrow's a new day!

[Lex's memory continued to nag Altair. He usually wasn't too bothered about keeping the memories he saw to himself. This time was different though. Unlike the memories of dead Lex was still alive. It felt wrong to keep it from him so eventually he gave in and contacted him.]

I think I saw your memory. If you want to pretend nothing happened that's fine but if you want to talk about it I'll listen. It's your choice.

Where are you?

[ Straight to the point, as usual. ]

[On Valentine's Day there would be a box waiting at Lex's apartment containing homemade chocolates and a small letter from Makoto. After the last trial she hadn't been sure about doing this, but she'd managed to work up the courage.]

Happy Valentine's Day,

I really enjoy talking and training with you. I appreciate that you support and encourage me and aren't afraid to speak up. I hope you enjoy the chocolates!
