[Chihiro fidgets nervously with his hands as he stalls outside Rise's door. There's a chance she might not even be here, or could be busy, but he didn't want to chance asking over the journals first. He knew he'd lose his resolve if he didn't just get up and do it in person.
...Of course that doesn't mean he isn't on the edge of losing said resolve now. But he's been here so long that it doesn't feel right anymore to keep living this lie. Everyone's been so nice to him and accepting... continuing to deceive them out of fear when even he was unhappy with things just didn't seem like the best thing to do.
Ideally he'd rather tell this to someone strong and male. Someone who could help him train in secret. But after how poorly that went at Hope's Peak... well, maybe it was better to confide in someone different first. And he couldn't think of anyone better than the person who's always been nicest to him.
Taking one last shaky breath he finally reaches up and knocks on the door.]
Rise-san...? Are you home?
