My name is Hazama Miyume. I'm a first year, in class 1-ro. I'm from Tokyo and my specialty is creative writing. I'm a member of this school's swim and writing clubs. I hope we can get along well and have a great school year!

I come from Shinagawa. Who's the first?

[phantomcloud]

Kasubata-san, a second year. Have you met her yet?

[burningbow]

I have. She wasn't difficult to get along with.

[phantomcloud]

She reminds me of someone I know. A friend of mine from Tokyo.

[burningbow]

How nice. I have a friend I miss. Would you talk about her?

[phantomcloud]

My friend? She's brave, strong, and assertive. She knows how to have a good time and doesn't let rules get in the way of that. No one tells her what to do and gets away with it. I admire her greatly.

[burningbow]

Ah, a free spirit.

Your friend must be the source of plenty of fun, Miyume-chan. I am sure I'll be a source of fun for you too.

[phantomcloud]

She is. She's a wonderful person. Ayana is always at my side, even when we're physically apart. And I'm sure you will be, senpai.

[burningbow]

How nice. You spend a lot of time together, I suppose?

... And since time together is something that you want, I will always be at your side.

[phantomcloud]

Senpai, that wasn't what I

We do. Since elementary. She's my best friend.

[OOC: Strike is deleted.]

[burningbow]

Well, she sounds like an excellent friend, and you seem very fond of her.

I would like to meet her if you would ever give me the chance.

[phantomcloud]

I am. We've been close a very long time. She protects me from bullies and people who want to hurt me. She's very good at it.

She's not here, though, so I suppose I'll need a new protector. Or learn how to protect myself.

[burningbow]

... You want me to be your guard dog?

[phantomcloud]

Do you want to be my guard dog, senpai?

[burningbow]

Would you hate me for refusing?

I think I can appreciate what you're asking, but may as well be truthful, right? I certainly hope it'll not make you think less of me.

Besides, when I was younger I had a cat.

[phantomcloud]

It was a joke, anyway.

Do you like cats, senpai?

[burningbow]

I do, truly. I think people who hate them miss out on a lot.

[phantomcloud]

I like cats, too. I feed strays in my neighborhood back home when I can.

[allisnothing]

Cool. Pretty sweet of you.

I always considered dogs cuter than cats though.

[waterholdmedown]

Huh. Were you at Koyamadai? Might've seen you.

[burningbow]

No. I went to a private school.

You have no idea how boring it was. It was so dull I came here.

[waterholdmedown]

I get ya.

My sister went to one. Mai. She loved it, so I don't think I would.

[burningbow]

No. You never struck me as the type.

Perhaps you're finding things more lively here?

[waterholdmedown]

Mostly. Different kinds of people, anyway.

[burningbow]

Different kinds of places, I hope. You?
