Death-Goddess Tomoko’s Lonely Cyber-Meltdown

Tomoko

Finally, someone notices my suffering! I'll make everyone feel as invisible as I do!

Subaru

She's... she's generating a cursed domain. This darkness... it's pure despair.

Rimuru

This isn't normal resentment. Her emotional energy is corrupting the entire network.

Kazuma

Look, I get being a shut-in with zero social skills, but this emo death god cosplay is a bit much!

Tomoko

Cosplay? I BECAME death because life never gave me a chance!

Subaru

Return by Death isn't triggering... which means this timeline hasn't killed me yet. Good.

Tomoko

You think I wanted this?! I just wanted friends! I just wanted... someone to notice me!

Rimuru

Her emotional corruption is feeding the dark presence. We need to reach her, not fight her.

Subaru

I know what it's like to be broken. To die inside over and over. But loneliness isn't solved by making everyone else miserable.

Tomoko

You... you touched me without flinching. Even with all this... darkness...

Kazuma

Great, the cosmic horror was just another socially awkward teenager having a meltdown. Never seen THAT before.

Tomoko

Oh god, I just tried to destroy the world because I couldn't get a boyfriend. This is literally the worst thing I've ever done!

Rimuru

At least you didn't try to catfish your entire kingdom with a fake demon lord persona. We all have our phases.

Tomoko

I can't believe I said 'world destruction' out loud... I'm literally the cringe protagonist...

Subaru

Heartbeat's racing like a hummingbird. She's crashing hard from the adrenaline dump.

Rimuru

Here. Nothing like confronting your post-meltdown appearance to complete the humiliation cycle.

Tomoko

Oh god, I have snot on my chin. I'm Death-chan with snot-chin. This is worse than the time I called my teacher 'mom.'

Kazuma

Congrats, you just speed-ran the 'edgelord boss-to-cinnamon-roll' arc in under five minutes. Even Aqua couldn't manage that level of tonal whiplash.

Tomoko

They'll make death god jokes forever! 'Hey Kuroki, still planning to destroy the world?' while they pretend to be scared of my lunch!

Subaru

Trust me, high school memory is shorter than you'd think. Unless you set someone's house on fire, they'll move on by next week.

Tomoko

The circuits... they're pink now. Like they're... sympathizing?

Rimuru

Emotional resonance feedback. The temple's AI is literally feeling secondhand embarrassment for you.

Tomoko

Wait—if the temple has AI, does that mean I just had a mental breakdown in front of a sentient building?!

Kazuma

Congratulations, you're officially the first person to traumatize architecture with teenage angst.

Tomoko

I—I can never go back to homeroom… they'll call me Death-chan forever…

Subaru

Look, I've died billions of times. Literally. And I'm telling you—this? This is just Tuesday. You'll survive.

Rimuru

Unless they start calling you 'Snot-chan' instead. Then you're genuinely screwed.
