Fishy Aroma BEATRICE: Doesn't this seem a bit... YASU: ...odd? BEATRICE: I'll lead, then. As always. YASU: I'll follow. BEATRICE: It's quite simple, my friend. I took the liberty of enrolling you someplace where your talents would be appreciated. And look, there's magic all around! Isn't this a lovely first day? YASU: But that isn't... right, is it? BEATRICE: How do you mean? Obviously everyone here is adjusting to the new school, same as you! I'd wager that this place opened recently, even with its prestigious reputation. YASU: That doesn't make sense, though! All the rooms have clearly been used at some point. BEATRICE: Pah. I simply had a bit of fun while I was waiting for you to arrive. YASU: It's not just that... how do I... YASU: This part I'm playing. With the blond hair. It doesn't fit right. Like... a costume that has a few seams loose. YASU: Part of me keeps thinking that there's a script that this body is supposed to stick to, and that the hair is a few centimeters longer than it's supposed to be. YASU: If I was "supposed" to be walking around with my hair like this, then... there should've been some more room for my eyes, right? YASU: And there's that feeling I got when I just woke up, and... BEATRICE: So, my friend. The question you should be asking isn't, "How did we get here?" YASU: It's "how long have we been here."
