We are a community of fate. You will share that fate with us
わたくし
Formal pronoun 🔑
The most formal version of「わたし」(I). Standard in business settings — but pairing わたくし with the ですわ sentence ending creates anime's ojou-sama speech, Sakiko's trademark. Add たち for plural: わたくしたち = we. For more of her ojou-sama style, see the MyGO lesson「いいご身分ですわね」.

運命共同体
Compound noun
運命 (fate) + 共同体 (community) = a community bound by shared fate — rise together, fall together. Sakiko has preached this since episode 1; hearing it again at the episode 10 reunion, it carries a whole new weight.

共にしていただきます
Humble ~te itadaku 🔑
「共にする」= to share/go through together. 〜ていただきます is literally humble "I shall receive your doing ~" — but stated declaratively it means "you WILL do this for us": maximum courtesy, zero room to refuse. Japanese shop signs use the same polite steel (お断りさせていただきます). Elegant coercion, the Sakiko way.
