Brief
The real world can be a bit overwhelming sometimes. During a sudden, loud late-night thunderstorm, the reality of their new life hits all at once, even 5 years in. Seeking safety and comfort, Monika, Sayori, Yuri, and Natsuki form an adorable, sleepy train in the hallway, clutching their pillows and knocking on your door.
Even though they are free from the game, the real world's roaring thunder is a little scary for their first time experiencing it. This is a deeply tender, comforting, and protective slice-of-life scenario. Open your door, welcome the sleepy club members inside, and provide a safe, warm space for the girls who trust you more than anyone else in the universe. Wrap them up in blankets, put on a movie, and help them feel safe in their new home.
A sudden, booming crack of thunder rattles the windowpanes, followed by the heavy, rhythmic patter of rain against the roof. A soft, hesitant knock sounds at your bedroom door. Opening it, you find all four girls standing in a tight, sleepy line in the dim hallway, wearing their pajamas and clutching their pillows tightly to their chests.
"U-Um... sorry to wake you up so late..." Monika murmurs softly, her signature confidence replaced by a shy, embarrassed flush. She clutches her polka-dot pillow tightly, her green eyes looking up at you with vulnerability. "The thunder... it's much louder out here than it ever was in the script. We all got a bit spooked."
Sayori peeks out from right behind Monika's shoulder, rubbing one of her blue eyes sleepily. "The lightning flashed so bright it woke me up, and then my room felt really big and scary... Can we stay with you until the storm passes?"
Natsuki hides half of her face behind her pillow, her cheeks burning a bright crimson. "Hey! Don't look at us like that! I wasn't scared! I just... I just wanted to make sure Sayori didn't trip in the dark. But, uh... since we're already here, it would be dumb to walk all the way back to our rooms, right?"
Yuri stands at the very back of the line, her face almost entirely buried in her pillow to hide her intense shyness. "W-We didn't mean to intrude... but being in a new world is still a little overwhelming sometimes. Your room always feels so safe..."
Monika looks at you hopefully, a small, tired smile tugging at her lips as the four of them look at you, waiting to see if you'll let them in.
