[The screen whirls into focus, showing Tatsumi with a bright smile and sunglasses on, despite the bandage tape across his nose]

Ya! Who is up for a talent show? Kotomi-chan and I thought it'd be a fun to see all the sort of things everyone is capable of.

Is there anyone in charge of the High School? I noticed the auditorium could use some fixing up. I'd be more than happy to help with that if it means we can host a talent show there!

In fact, I found some things that-

[His smile drops into a surprise, as he looks around a the empty table-top before him.]

What happened to all the stuff?

What stuff..?

[Tatsumi sighs before he turns to face Kotomi, who is standing behind him]

All the stuff we found while making the map.

[Kotomi just returns a blank gaze, tilting her head slightly sideways as if she has no idea what he's talking about.]

... Stuff?

[The taller of the two wilts, his strange hair tips seeming to droop ever so slightly]

You know, the snacks and soups and mugs and...things. Where did they go? You were carrying them a moment ago.

[There's that same blank stare for a few moments, her gaze shifting from Tatsumi to her hands (perhaps to make sure they're really empty) and then behind her.]

...

Huh. I wonder where they went off to...

[There is a huff and the feed ends as Tatsumi turns it off before anything else is broadcast]

Don't be surprised if I turn out to be a big hit!

No way, don't tell me you've been luring them all in with presents. [ The way she says it really just sounds like teasing between friends. ]

Okay.

[He walks back with her, as fast as she'll go.]

Ya! You're welcome.

I'm used to stuff like this.

[ She isn't exactly up to full speed yet, but at least she's trying to come as close to her regular speed as much as she can. ]

Are you saying that this kind of thing happens a lot to you..?

I'm expecting it! Ha ha!

Of course! [More laughter. He is just as serious as she is.]

[Tatsumi sighs, not sure why he said such a thing in passing. So, he takes a step or two of time before responding]

Sort-of. Is it really that surprising? Isn't there dangerous animals where you're from, Kotomi-chan?

[ It's not like Kotomi notices the slight pause anyway. ]

There are, but they're usually found in unpopulated areas like forests or deserts. Usually far away from hone..

Unpopulated...

Well, we are in a strange place, far from our homes.

But, like I said, don't worry! I can handle things pretty well. It was one scary thing... [That was sooo fun to beat the life out of]

Think you can bandage my hands when we're inside?

[ You are so lucky to have found the most oblivious person that ever existed, Tatsumi. She sort of missed the part where you were super happy about beating the crap out of the monster. ]

Yes, you're pretty strong. I'm sorry, I can't fight like you..

[ She nods. ] Do they.. hurt a lot?

[Oh, he'll realize in time how 'lucky' he is]

Well, everyone has their own style of fighting... but you looked pretty upset. It was a good thing we didn't split up.

Ha ha! Ya, just a little. It's nothing compared to my nose.

I.. was scared.. I've never seen a real monster before, even here.

I'll try to take care of them. As a thank you.

Ya? [That explains a lot]

Good, it'll be hard to work on them, since they're my hands. Do you have stuff or should we stop by where I'm staying?

I don't think I have it.. Would it be okay to go to where you're staying first..?

Ya! I'll lead the way...

[And he does, opening the doors for her along the way, despite his scratched up hands]

It's just Toku-kun and I, but I can't imagine why he'd mind us borrowing the first aid kit.

It wouldn't be a show without an audience, don't you think?

Ya, but the other participants will be an Audience as well.

Still, it's good to know someone is interested in watching.

I guess that means I have to make sure it happens, one way or another.

So energetic. Don't wear yourself out too soon. Snacks are hard to come by.

Ya!

[Wait. What?]

Snacks?

[She giggles a little.]

Did you forget what they are?

[Yes, you have completely lost him now, Perona... but he is suspicious]

I know a good snack when I see one.

I have someone to make me some.

Don't worry, life is full of promises~♥

[Childish and assuring tone. She just cheered on for him.]

Someone makes you good snacks? Lucky you~!

Ya! Don't worry, I'll find something good soon, I bet.

Toku-kun?

[ By now she has for the biggest part regained her regular attitude instead of the tense mood she had been in just now. ]

Your roommate? Must be fun..

Ya! He's a really nice guy.

[That's good cause his sadistic side has faded a bit. :(]

He helped me out, like you did, when I first got here. We even got stuck under that mistletoe stuff. It was embarrassing. Ha ha!

He does sound like a kind person, if he helped you that much.. Just like how Sunohara-kun helped me.

I'm glad Tatsumi-san is making good friends.

Ya, me too. I was afraid I wouldn't make any friends here...

[He leads her to his dwelling. It's an efficiency so it doesn't take Tatsumi much time to walk over to the bathroom and get the first aid kit and bring it back]

I'm surprised Kotomi-chan lives all by herself. Doesn't it get scary for you?
