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!

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.

[phantomcloud]

I like dogs, too. The fluffy ones are so cute.

[allisnothing]

Totally.

Especially when you pet and cuddle them. A bit like dealing with some guys.

[phantomcloud]

Really? I can't say I've ever petted or cuddled a guy before.

[allisnothing]

I used to with my last boyfriend. He was pretty cute and warm too, a lot like a pathetic puppy.

[phantomcloud]

Boys can be a bit like puppies sometimes, can't they? Well, some boys are anyway. It just makes you want to put a collar and a leash on them and make them

If they're adorable and feel nice.

Cat-like people can be okay too.

[burningbow]

I find that admirable. With some love and affection, animals can be the truest friends. I am sure you lovingly stroke your cats, too.

[phantomcloud]

Of course. I love petting them when they're in my lap. They're so soft.

[burningbow]

Well, it seems you are a considerate person. Do you love humans the same way?

[phantomcloud]

Sometimes I do.

[burningbow]

... I see.

Forgive me for being forward, but do you have someone you are very fond of? A young lady like you must attract plenty of unwelcome attention from boys.

[phantomcloud]

Just Ayana but she's my friend. Not really. They look but it doesn't bother me.

[burningbow]

If all they do is look, they aren't paying you the attention you deserve, Miyume-chan. I am sure someone better than them will come along.
