Two worlds, one family--

[mombastic]

[ It's strange to be in a world with not one set of memories from another world-- not two, but three, not that Otome can really discuss this with anyone. It's difficult enough, when she wakes up these days, and can't remember if she's in her own home, or her apartment. If she needs to call Fumi to check on preparations for the day, or...

But no. This is her world. And not a school day, so she's stuck trying to focus not on what she's missing or what she's lost, but on what lies ahead.

What that actually is, she doesn't know, but she's out and about today, and there's a strong breeze. Maybe today will be a good day for clearing her thoughts. ]

...Don't misunderstand.

I am more than aware of the fact that I've been incredibly lucky.

[Look, he's not so tsun or ungrateful that he can't acknowledge when he's been saved from death.]

It will... just continue to take some time. So-- [...] --please continue to be patient with me.

Leon...

[ ... ]

It's not a matter of patience. I know it will take time... I'm just relieved that you're trying. [ That he's willing to live. ]

[discard]

[He is... trying. He's willing to live right now. And even he knows that that's an improvement from how he was.]

... Yes, well. There's no need to worry about that.

[AHEM.]

Anyway, we should continue. [and stop talking about embarrassing things.]

[mombastic]

Mm, that's right! I'm all fired up for dinner and hearing how your studying went!

[ ONWARDS. ]

[discard]

[ONWARDS.... it's strange to have this much interest be taken, but also gratifying.]

It has been interesting, I'll say that much. However, by cross-referencing textbooks, I believe I'm understanding things well enough.

[mombastic]

Most people your age would have a very hard time understanding it. I'm impressed.

[ Sincerely. ]

[Oh....... oh, he's actually embarrassed now. He clears his throat awkwardly, looking away so his hair hides his face.]

That is... N-naturally this sort of thing is only to be expected from me...!

[he's really pleased... that mom is proud.]

[mombastic]

The only thing I expect from you, Leon, is to give things your best effort. Regardless of the result, I'd still be happy.

[discard]

... I won't be, however. I intend to be successful, regardless of any hurdles in place.

[Ok Leon.]
