Act 2 - Play Date

I've gotten into a staring contest with myself in the mirror. Should I do something with my hair? Put product in it or something? That would probably look unnatural. It feels stupid to be nervous about a date, especially with someone as easygoing as Naomi, but what can I say? She's hard to read. I d...

Re: From Tokyo To Mumbai

Very intriguing start Zere! Seems like there are a lot of directions to go with this so it will be interesting to watch unfold.

I think I mentioned before that this premise is making me think of Legion :P

Re: People-Watching: A Naomi Inoue Pseudo-Route

Well, not if she wasn't expecting to be challenged in the first place. Really? She accused Naomi of libel and expected her just to take it? Not likely. Well the idea was that it wasn't something she'd planned out, just a reactionary comment she made out of defensiveness without much reasoning behin...

Re: People-Watching: A Naomi Inoue Pseudo-Route

Still, even if Hisao really went braindead here I'd expect a girl like Naomi to at least call him out on this unenthousiastic response. Rule of thumb: If you get confessed to, and you respond with what boils down to "Yeah, sure" don't expect to get to second base anytime soon :-) Edit: By...

Re: People-Watching: A Naomi Inoue Pseudo-Route

Really, this chapter felt like you were in a rush to get he relationship started rather than it developing normally. So far the impression I got from Naomi was that she probably is mildly interested in Hisao but not that she'd be so anxious that she'd confess right there. Hisao's reaction was... we...

Act 2 - Two Kids Alone in a Tiny Room

There's a quiet, electronic hum in the computer lab that can make any silence awkward. Natsume is unexpectedly late for lunch, leaving me and Naomi here by ourselves without much to talk about. Given that Naomi is preoccupied with her lunch- slurping noodles directly out of a plastic container with ...

Re: People-Watching: A Naomi Inoue Pseudo-Route

Okay, I'm away for a weekend and when I come back you've written half a novella's worth of new chapters... Time to catch up... Hahaha, I wish I'd written all this in a weekend. Like I originally mentioned this is a fic I have been updating for some time on FF.net, right now I'm just posting chapter...

Act 2 - Inquisition

Today is my fourth consecutive day on the nurse's exercise schedule, which according to him consists of "as much brisk walking as seems productive"- or until I get too tired and frustrated to exert myself, in other words. Credit where it's due, he's definitely committed to accommodating me...

Act 2 - Comedy of Errors

It is usually pretty easy to guess whether Shizune and Misha have shown up to class yet before I even get to the door, which is why I am surprised to find them both situated at their desks first thing in the morning despite a completely quiet classroom. Misha, uncharacteristically, seems to be preoc...

Re: People-Watching: A Naomi Inoue Pseudo-Route

Wait. So this is not art club Takashi who's in the same home room as Hisao and the girls? All this time that's who I thought you were talking about when you mentioned Takashi. Oh damn no, haha, it's a completely different person. Sorry for the confusion. That's simply my mistake; when I originally ...

Act 2 - Deadlines

I've been staring at the ceiling for I don't know how long. That's something I used to do in the hospital, especially early on, before I got used to being there. It depresses me for no good reason. It feels like the whole week has breezed right past me- my entire perception of time is distorted righ...

Act 2 - Initiation

Act 2: Observation Monday morning has always been the most trying time of the week, but I can't remember the last time I ever felt like this waking up. I could chalk it up to the fact that I haven't adapted to my class schedule yet, but really it's the festival's fault. If I only knew why I thought...

Act 1 - It Takes All Kinds

"…Yeah, you should check the festival out." It seems like a harmless suggestion to me, but even still I'm not surprised to see Kenji overreact to it, groaning and throwing his face into his hands. "Agh, no, no! I can't do it. They'll eat me alive out there, I know it." He remains...

Act 1 - Social Circles

"Before you all leave, I expect the answers for those problems by Monday." That's no doubt every student's least favorite ending to a day of class, especially considering the frantic last-minute festival preparations everyone is bound to be doing today. Mutou is obviously aware of this, bu...

Act 1 - In the Newsroom

Over the course of two days, I've managed to set everyone's expectations unreasonably high for me, and then proceed to immediately fail to meet them all. After the mess I made of myself on the track this morning, it looks like I am going to end up either as the unmotivated whipping boy of the Studen...
