And then there was the Extras/ folder. Inside: a single .html file—a saved chat log from an IRC channel called #imouto_lounge . The conversation was dated 2012-04-01. <Kisaragi> IS 72 is done. <Yuki_88> final one? <Kisaragi> yeah. my sister’s moving out next week. college. <Yuki_88> oh. <Kisaragi> i won’t need to make these anymore. <AnonymousCat> but who’s going to keep the archive alive? <Kisaragi> someone. someday. that’s what .rar files are for. <Kisaragi> they wait.

The Manga/ folder contained a 24-page untitled story in black and white. No dialogue, only sound effects written in Japanese romaji : zaaaaa (rain), kotsu kotsu (footsteps), doki (heartbeat).
