on mun thinking about hollyheights....

[colombe]

M-Mun-san! You shouldn't be thinking about sending me somewhere when you have so many other things to do! L-like, like, those school papers! I saw you reading something and it made my head hurt too and I didn't understand a word either! And your thesis...thingy!! Finish that too! You're almost there, right?

Your mun seems very, very, very busy! Are they doing okay? Are they getting enough sleep?

[colombe]

I think she's getting enough sleep, but I'm worried that Mun-sun will start staying up just to do all the things she needs to do and trying to understand them, and then beating herself up about it.

[reservoirs]

Oh no, she shouldn't do that! I know it's not any of my business, but... is there anything I can do to help? [ Sakura just means well! ]

[colombe]

[ baww sakura-chan ;u; ] I, I'm not sure! I'm worried but she tells me it'll be alright and when everything's done she'll send me to a game.

...Someday...

[reservoirs]

Ah, yes, a game! That game your mun is thinking of, I remember my mun saying she was in it. Maybe they'll meet each other soon.

[sonpan]

Sounds like your mun's gotten over her fear of apps.

[colombe]

That's amazing! I hope so, too! Two of her friends are playing there and she wanted to give it a try because it looks fun.

P...Pan-san! [ and here comes a hug ]

[colombe]

She's working on it, but she won't do it right now because of school work. But I'm glad she's thinking about it!

[reservoirs]

It does! I wish I could join you... but I'm already headed to another game. It doesn't look like my mun is going to change her mind about it, either.

[sonpan]

Heya! [She isn't quite sure how to react to the sudden hug, but manages an awkward pat on the back.]

See? Pan said she could do it! She just needs to keep at it.

[colombe]

Oh no! Does this mean we won't see each other again?

[colombe]

She hasn't written much though, so it's...um, I think she calls it, a double you dash ai dash pee. [ so kobato is kinda dumb... ]

[sonpan]

... [Kobato, you're not the only one. Double whassit?]

I meant she needs to finish her work and hop to it! Even if work sounds- bluh.

[reservoirs]

[ She thinks about this for a while. ]

No, I don't think that has to be the case. There are countless worlds out there, but I might visit yours someday. So even if we have to part soon, we'll definitely meet again. You can count on it!

[colombe]

Worlds?

[colombe]

I will! For sure!

1/2

[colombe]

Oh!

[colombe]

She's going to! She's starting to be more motivated than usual--

[ and kobato's dumb strikes back ]

Bluh? What's bluh, Pan-san?

[sonpan]

It's something gross. Like... coffee!

[colombe]

Strange...Mun-san drinks coffee but she doesn't think it's gross...

[sonpan]

Pan drinks coffee too. That's why it's like schoolwork.

[Logic...]

[colombe]

[ LMAO PAN kobato's just...trying to process that and well ] ...How is drinking coffee like schoolwork, Pan-san?

[sonpan]

Because it's something you [when she says you, really she means herself] don't like, but put up with anyway.

[Matter-of-factly.]

[colombe]

I see... [ then it clicks in her head ]

[colombe]

Like when Ioryogi-san breathes fire at me when I've done something or said something wrong!

[sonpan]

This "Ioryogi-san" breathes fire at you?

[colombe]

He does when I've done something wrong. Or said something wrong. But he's really nice! [ he's a fire-breathing doggy plush toy kobato carries around...usually ]

[sonpan]

That doesn't sound nice. You should tell him to stop.

[colombe]

Oh, I can't! He's helping me with fulfill my wish and he teaches me things about being a normal human being!

[sonpan]

Wish? Normal human being?

1/?

[colombe]

[ wait. did she just say that ]

[colombe]

[ and no ioryogi to yell at her.... ]

[colombe]

[ and starts to panic in 3...2...1... ]

[colombe]

[ so there's shrieking and unintelligible mumbling coming from her as she flails around ]

OK DONE sorry for the spam ;u;

[colombe]

I wasn't supposed to say that!! [ a little too shrilly ]

It's fine! c: 1/2

[sonpan]

[Cue Pan not quite as panicked as Kobato but- backing away a bit.]

[sonpan]

Was it supposed to be a secret?

[colombe]

I'm not supposed to tell anyone! [ and she looks a bit weepy ]

[sonpan]

Pan can keep a secret.
