[dormition]

Hi. I'm awake again.

I keep missing class, but they still want me to apply for university. Is anyone else a senior this year?

What has everyone else been up to?

Riku, do you want to coordinate our costumes for the masquerade? We can get something from the store I work at.

Hm... Tuesday.

[One could almost hear the intense giggling on the other side.]

[dormition]

I don't know. Do you think I could get away with sleeping all winter?

[resipiscent]

You sleep too much.

And sure, if you want to. I'd be up for that. Do you have anything in mind?

[dormition]

No such thing.

Nothing too complicated. I'm not very flashy. Let's look around the store.

how often do you sleep that you have to announce when youre awake
thats actually a little worrying

[dormition]

[Well, he'd fallen asleep before slipping into death back home. And that was after a long history of sleeping for a couple days after every major incident. But Minato doesn't think that will be helpful to share.]

I'm okay. I just like sleeping. It's quiet.

Was someone waiting for you to wake up..?

[dormition]

Not that I know of. But just in case anyone was wondering where I was.

[ Thank the gods he can finally read text. He's actually grateful to Luke for once in his life. ]

Are you feeling alright?

[dormition]

[Minato switches to video without question or comment.]

... I'm fine. [He certainly looks perfectly normal. Of course, with Minato it's hard to tell.] I didn't mean to worry everyone.

[Awake again...? Well. That sounded odd.]

I am. They keep talking about it all the time, but I pretty much ignore it. I already have a job that's a stepping stone to what I want to do and no university is going to offer a major in what I like anyway.

[dormition]

That's sort of the problem. I don't know what I want to do, but I have to pick something.

What are you planning on?

[khajidont]

Were you sick?

[dormition]

No. Just tired. [Since it's Jaime, Minato is spurred to some uncharacteristically forthcoming honesty:] Life is complicated.

[quaerit]

I'm a senior, actually.

If you have ambitions for college, you shouldn't miss class. What is it you want to study?

[dormition]

Do you go to Heropa? We might have class together.

It's not intentionally missing... but I don't really care much, either. I'm not sure what I want to do. I thought I'd audition for a music conservatory just to make them stop asking.

why would you wanna go through even more school
once i'm done in the spring, i'm through with this mess
i think aki goes to some college classes but i dunno if he really cares about them
never asked

[dormition]

I'm good at school. I had to work hard to have Mitsuru-san notice me. Now it all seems easy.

I had no idea senpai took classes. Do you think you'll graduate this time? [This isn't meant as a dig. He's honestly wondering.]
