So, hey, if you haven't heard. Attacks have been stepping up again in Domino. The Special Investigations department is trying to mitigate them as best we can, but for personal safety, try not to wander out alone in the evenings, and if you absolutely must, make sure you have a way to get to safety or to defend yourself.

In addition, anyone who has witnessed or been targeted by an attack is encouraged to step forward with any information they may recall. Every little bit helps.

We're going to have to speed track my little project for a test run, and soon. I can't catch this new threat with Gigantech power. Too slow.

[Private to Onee/Akuma]

Got a sneaking suspicion you two might be involved in an attack soon, be on your guard.

It's as I said. Everyone is at risk of such a thing happening. Not just yourself, Shiroko.

Then why does it happen to me so much more than it does to others?

Perhaps it is the expectation that it will happen to you, that draws it to you.

... Are you saying I think it will happen, so it does happen?

I'm not Noriko.

You're not Noriko, but belief in something can sometimes be powerful enough, that it causes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Negative emotions, especially, can draw those who'd want to use that to you.

Real Life isn't a Magical Girl or Superhero story!

I don't really know what those are, so...

I am just saying, that by what usually happens here, it's not unusual.

I imagine if I dwell more upon my suggestibility, people would try to take more advantage of it too... and that would be bad.
