The Cafeteria Is Closed Today [Crossover]

[Blurb]

- To Mr. Nakahara Chuuya: If something's bothering you, we can talk it out. Don't sit alone and drink your sorrows away.

- To Mr. Nakahara Chuuya: The little gifts you sent are so cute! We love playing games with you, Mr. Nakahara!

- To Mr. Akutagawa Ryuunosuke: I got the cigarettes. I took one pack as my errand fee.

- To Mr. Dazai Osamu: I can't prescribe you anything. Read more books when you have time.

- To Mr. Mori Ougai: Please help me find a job. You absolutely must keep that matter secret from everyone!

- To...

Seizaki Anan kept rummaging through the mailbox, searching for any letters that might have been addressed to her. What if it was a notice telling her she'd won the million-dollar jackpot!

But...

No matter how much she searched, the mailbox was full of letters passed back and forth between the bunch of strange men living in the library.

They lived in the same dorm! Couldn't they just say whatever they wanted to each other's faces?!

"Ah! I found one!"

When Seizaki Anan opened the letter, its brief contents filled her with a sense of crisis unlike anything she'd ever felt before.

"To my Lord,

It has been several days since we last met. Are you, as I suspected, playing some other game?

Your attendant, Yamato no Kami Yasusada"

That same day, her assistant Nakahara Chuuya hurried over to tell her that some people had come to the library and said they wanted to see her.

It's over! It's really, really over!

Seizaki Anan couldn't even imagine something as terrifying as this showdown happening to her. She opened the desk drawer in the librarian's office and tried to cram her whole self inside, but then she heard a familiar male voice from the doorway.

"My Lord, the last time I found you at Yumenosaki Private Academy, you tried to crawl into a desk drawer just like this. What, did DoraeOmon really install a time machine with a drawer for an entrance?"

Seizaki, trembling, Anan: I wish there really were such a thing!

[Reader's Guide]

■ Currently doing a live playthrough of the game...

■ This idea came to me on a whim. It's a crossover, so let's just mix together whatever eras and settings we like and not fuss over it. (Most of the crossover characters are listed in the supporting cast.)

■ No historical research, and there are plenty of headcanons. The characters will definitely be out of character. If that bothers you, just play the original game and follow its story. Why open this book and make yourself unhappy?

■ No reposting in any form. A friendly reminder to anyone sharing a story bundle on the forums: come back and shower me with tip tokens, thanks!

Theme: The night will not last forever. As long as we keep hope in our hearts, dawn will surely come!
