Even though we've been putting in a ton of effort these last few months to help you get your memories back…
New year is here, and you still haven't got all your memories back…!
…Maybe we need to put in a bit more effort? Because this isn't going anywhere…
Once winter break is over, let's make an effort to chat with everyone even more than we have been. After all, we still need to find a trigger to have your memories come back.
If we put in some extra effort, I bet we'll start seeing some good results!
Place: Outside — School
Orion: Alright, let's put in the effort with our fresh motivation, just like we talked about when we set our goal at the end of last year!
Since Toma is already in our class, we should talk to him the most today.
You guys are childhood friends, and that means he's known you since you were little. I'm sure we can trigger something with that!
???: …Oh my. I knew that face looked familiar; it's you.
Orion: I was thinking that if you two could talk about what you did during the winter break, we might be able to learn more about last year.
???: Don't tell me you haven't noticed me yet. Haha, you're joking, right?
Orion: Honestly, I think it's best to just bring it up casually so it doesn't feel weird later on. If it feels forced, it might seem suspicious.
???: …I sincerely hope you will turn your head over here soon. If we're going to talk, I'd like to look you in the eyes at least.
Orion: “Over here”... huh? Is someone talking to you?
???: Ah, you've finally looked at me. It's been a while since I saw you at the Christmas party; how have you been?
Orion: T-This guy… Right, he was the one who decorated the cake at the Christmas party!
???: I forgot to ask your name that day… and I really regret not asking that before.
But God was watching over me from heaven, and he must've planned this fateful reunion for both of us!
People start chattering
Orion: …Uhh, what do we do? Everyone's looking at you two…
???: Now, here, and now! Tell me your name!
Choices
1) I'm sorry?
2) Calm down, please…
— I'm sorry?
???: A refusal!? No, you simply must be hiding your embarrassment…!
Orion: There's no way! This guy really can't take a hint, can he!?
— Calm down, please…
???: Fufu, you are quite shy, aren't you? That's fine, though.
You can simply whisper it into my ear. Come on, tell me your name in that adorable voice of yours!
Orion: Eek! This guy won't give up, will he…!? He just keeps on pushing…!
end Choices
???: Ah, how rude. I haven't even introduced myself to you yet, have I?
It's understandable that you wouldn't want to tell me your name in this manner. Please forgive my extreme rudeness.
Orion: No, that's not the problem. We were just on our way to—
Luka: My name is Luka. Please feel free to refer to me by that name going forward.
When I saw you from behind as you walked away at the Christmas party, I thought that from behind…
Orion: Eh? W-What? Does that mean… he followed you!?
Luka: I had seen an angel with wings on.
Orion: …..
Luka: Up until now, I thought I only knew one female angel…
But the city is truly different from the countryside, and it appears to be filled with beauties I've never seen before...!
Choices
1) A female angel…?
2) Countryside…?
— A female angel…?
Luka: Yes, that's right. She's just as stunning as you...
However, there aren't enough words to describe her stunning beauty!
— Countryside…?
Luka: Ahem, ahem. Did I say that? I'm sure you must've misheard it.
Orion: Ehh!? He definitely said that, or did you actually mishear it?
end Choices
Luka: Ah, if we keep talking about me, the day will be over before we realize it. Now it is your turn.
Orion: He can say that, but honestly, all we really know about you is just your name…
It feels a bit risky to share your name with someone you don't really know, though….
Shin: …What are you doing here?
Orion: Ah… Shin! He showed up right when we needed him!
Shin: …..? Who's this weirdly snobby guy?
Luka: It's impolite to call someone "weirdly snobby." Maybe you're just too plain.
Shin: …What's so plain about me then? At least I'm more normal than you.
Orion: S-Shin… Maybe it's a good idea to just ignore him…
Luka: In fact, it's difficult to ignore how plain you are. To begin with, all of your belongings appear to be of poor quality. You're obviously poor!
Shin: Ngh…!
Luka: It's pointless to try to hide your worn-out music player now. I've already seen it, after all.
You should be more careful with your belongings; failing to do so will make you appear even cheaper!
Shin: …Hey. Do you know this extremely annoying guy?
Choices
1) I don't.
2) His name is Luka.
— I don't.
Luka: W-What are you saying? I've just introduced myself to you!
Orion: You were basically having a one-sided conversation with yourself, if anything. Then you talked about angels and whatnot…
Shin: Is this guy like a stalker or something…? How annoying.
Luka: I'd prefer to be compared to something more beautiful, so please don't put me in the same category as such vile people.
— His name is Luka.
Luka: You remembered my name right away. This makes me happy.
Shin: …Right away? So you basically just found out his name. Does that even make you acquaintances?
Luka: I'm actually having a fateful reunion with her.
Shin: Fateful reunion…? Seems more like he was chasing after you, if you ask me.
end Choices
Shin: Either way… I can clearly tell you're a shady person.
And if you keep bothering her, I'll have to call the cops… Got it?
Luka: P-Police!? Now, now. You may appear to be a hothead, but let's cool down a little.
Shin: I am calm. As calm as I can be…
Orion: …It's obvious that he's pretty mad. Well, no wonder.
Luka: …Fine, you've won. I think I'll call it a day for now.
However, the more obstacles I encounter, the more motivated I become. By the next time, I'll know your name!
Until then, this will be our farewell. Now, until our next meeting!
Luka runs off
Orion: …..
Shin: He's actually serious about seeing you again. Try not to wander around by yourself too much because of that guy, alright?
Orion: Hmm… I think if he sees you, he'd probably call out to you no matter who you'd be with anyways…
Place: Classroom
Orion: Alright, now that it's lunchtime, it's finally time for us to start gathering the info we aimed for!
Toma is…
…..
Huh? …He's not around. His friends aren't around either; maybe they went outside or something...
N-No, let's not throw in the towel just yet. We need to stay as motivated as we were in the morning…
We need to be as persistent as this guy. Luka was his name, right?
If we can't talk with Toma today… we'll just find someone else to talk with, no big deal.
Place: Hallway
Orion: If we go to the third-year classroom, we should be able to find Kent there… Let's see if we can get some info out of him instead.
???: I see... These are the third-year classrooms. Unlike the first-year students, everyone here appears more mature.
Orion: T-This voice… No, I'm probably just imagining it. There's no way this guy would show up inside your school…
Luka: Oh my! I already thought there was one girl who stood out from the crowd, but it's you again! It appears that we were meant to meet no matter what!
Orion: I-It's really him…! Coincidences like this actually happen…
Kent: Y/N… Do you happen to know Luca?
Orion: Kent!? Eh? Who would've guessed these two know each other when Kent is totally the opposite of this guy…
Luka: Y/N… I see; that's your name.
Orion: Agh! Because of the confusion, he ended up finding out your name!
Luka: Yes, not only does she look beautiful, but her name also sounds beautiful.
She is truly deserving of being the embodiment of an angel. Don't you agree, Obstinate-kun?
Orion: O-Obstinate…? I mean, he's got a point, but saying that to his face takes some serious guts.
Kent: …Y/N being the embodiment of an angel? She appears human to me; what leads you to that conclusion?
Orion: Eh? …Isn't it clear that he has no basis for that statement…?
Luka: There is no need for one, Obstinate-kun. It's all about the feeling. And I can… clearly feel that in my body!
Kent: …..
Orion: Even Kent seems to be at a loss for words… I don't think he's the type to buy into this either.
Luka: Wow, this school is huge. If Obstinate-kun hadn't shown me around, I'm sure I'd have been lost.
Kent: I don't believe it's particularly complex to comprehend…
Luka: You only say that because you've been attending this school for three years.
As the saying goes, "Home is wherever you live." I wonder if I'll eventually get used to living here as well...
Ah, right. Obstinate-kun, that's enough of your guidance for now; the rest of the tour will be handled by Y/N.
Kent: I cannot do that… as I am providing you with a tour at the behest of the headmaster…
Luka: Don’t worry. Besides, there's a lot I would like to talk about with Y/N to begin with.
Kent: Hm… If you say so. Would that be okay with you, Y/N?
Choices
1) Sure.
2) I'm busy right now…
— Sure.
Luka: I'm glad you agreed so quickly. This will undoubtedly help us strengthen our friendship!
Orion: Even if we didn't want to, we can't say no if Kent asks us…
— I'm busy right now…
Luka: Don't be like that. Won't you please help me?
Orion: Hmmm… It's hard to refuse if he asks like that.
end Choices
Luka: Thank you for guiding me so far, Obstinate-kun. I'll be sure to contact you again if anything comes up.
Kent: Certainly. I will entrust the remainder to you, Y/N.
Orion: Ahh, looks like we’re in charge now… I mean, it shouldn't be too hard to give him a tour…
Luka: Our long-awaited time together has finally begun!
Do you mind if we have lunch before you show me around, though? If you don't, let's go eat together!
When I was shown around the cafeteria earlier, I looked at today's menu, and the items on it sounded delicious.
Of course, I'll treat you. Oh my… this is starting to feel more like a date like this.
Well, not that I would mind if it turned into one. After all, I'd love to know you better!
Orion: The conversation is moving so quickly, I can't keep up with all the stuff he's saying…!
Luka: Now that this has been decided, let us proceed to the cafeteria!
Place: Cafeteria
Luka: …To be honest with you, I believe you and I must have had a very close relationship in our previous lives.
Otherwise, I doubt we would have ever met in this large school...
No, I probably wouldn't have met you at the party in the first place then.
Orion: While he goes on and on about his fate theory, you've already finished your meal...
From what was said earlier, it looks like he's not just acquainted with Kent but also knows the headmaster too…
And yet it's kind of a mystery why he's even at this school, but he might actually be a good guy.
Luka: …Not only is the food delicious, but it is also visually appealing.
I think it's quite admirable that they avoid artificial colorings and instead use the natural colors of the vegetables.
Furthermore, these vegetables are pesticide-free on top. The freshness is impeccable.
Orion: Is he actually able to tell if it's pesticide-free just by tasting it…? He shouldn't be, right?
Choices
1) Are you a foodie?
2) Is it? I can't tell.
— Are you a foodie?
Luka: Hahaha… I suppose I am. When it comes to food, I try to avoid making compromises.
— Is it? I can't tell.
Luka: If you have life experience like me, you will understand.
If you'd like, I can assist you in gaining that experience.
end Choices
Luka: Vegetables were always on the table at my house, so I'm pretty picky about them.
By the way… Are you free after school today, Y/N? If yes, why don't you—
Orion: Ah, the bell! Your class is about to start; let's hurry back to the classroom!
Luka: W-Wait, I haven't finished yet…
Orion: That's because you kept on talking instead of eating! It's not like he's even a student here, anyway...
You've got classes to get to, so even if you feel bad for him, it's time to head there.
Luka: Ah, this is embarrassing... Bolting down food is actually against my aesthetics.
It is disrespectful to the person who prepared the food unless you properly savor it! Always take your time when eating…
Choices
1) I'm sorry, but class is starting soon.
2) It's important, but I can't wait anymore.
— I'm sorry, but class is starting soon.
Luka: …Eh!? W-Wait, let me go with you…
Orion: Agh, you can't wait any longer! Let's go, Y/N!
— It's important, but I can't wait anymore.
Luka: R-Regardless… It's quite important to chew your food as well.
Orion: If she's late for class, there's nothing to earn from that either! She can't wait any longer!
end Choices
Orion: If you keep on waiting, you'll definitely be late. If you sprint, you can still make it!
Place: Classroom
Orion: S-Somehow... you made it in time. And before we knew it, we went from giving someone a tour to grabbing lunch with them.
…All while we were actually supposed to go to the third-year classroom to talk to other students…
N-No, there's still a chance to talk to some people. Let's keep our spirits up!
— February
Sawa: Hey, Valentine's Day is coming up soon. Are you going to prepare something for Toma and the others this year, too?
Toma: Why would you ask that in front of me? It ruins the surprise, you know?
Sawa: If she does, that means I can hope to receive some chocolate as well.
Toma: About that… I'm not only taking care of Y/N but also you, especially when it comes to your studies.
Sawa: I know, but I always repay you for all the help you give me, though.
Ah, right. Why don't you join me in making some Valentine's Day sweets, Y/N? I invited Mine too.
Orion: Yes, that's a good idea. I'm sure it would be more fun if you guys made it together!
Luka: Homemade Valentine's Day sweets from Y/N would be truly wonderful. I'd love to join in as well.
Everyone: !!!
Orion: W-Why did he jump into the conversation too!? I didn't even sense his presence…
Sawa: Is this guys… someone you know, Y/N?
Luka: Fufu, I'm glad you asked. She and I… are in fact very close friends with one another.
Orion: Hey, don't lie! Don't believe him, you two! He's a lying liar!
Toma: …Curly hair, a black fur coat, and some holly decorations…
Could it be… that he's the one who's been stalking you, Y/N?
Luka: "Stalking" isn't such a beautiful expression. Y/N and I were actually brought together by fate.
Toma: "Every word and action he does is really annoying..." He has to be the weirdo that Shin was talking about.
Orion: That means Shin told Toma about his encounter. That's good.
Yesterday we were swept up in Lukas' pace, but with Toma next to us, we don't need to worry about him.
Luka: Greeting me by calling me a "weirdo" is quite inappropriate. If anyone here is weird, it is you.
After all, how can you possibly not take action when you're with her?
It's crazy to think you can remain calm in front of such a beautiful woman as her.
Toma: We're childhood friends… And there's no need to make such a fuss over it.
How did you even get onto the school grounds…? Doesn't that count as trespassing?
Luka: I received permission from the school; therefore, it's not trespassing.
Toma: Even if you got permission, aren't you too free with your clothing and your behavior?
Luka: Ah, well, that cannot be helped. I'm not bound by earthly rules after all; that's simply who I am.
Toma: Eh…?
Luka: There are generally too many ties in this world to begin with.
If you don't follow certain rules, you're punished. The more forbidden something is, the more you want it. That's simply human nature.
That's why, kid, it seems to me that being bound by rules is limiting the freedom of humans to express themselves.
And humans need to have their freedom, wouldn't you agree?
Toma: …..
Orion: T-Toma…? Come on, say something. Anything, just like you did earlier.
Toma: …No matter how absurd this sounds, he might have a point about that.
Orion: Ehhhhhhhh!? You… gotta be kidding!?
Sawa: I get why the more rules there are, the more tempting something becomes. It's like the forbidden fruit thing, right?
Orion: Sawa too!? There has to be something fishy about this!
Luka: I'm glad you understand. I sincerely hope you two will break free from your pointless ties and live freely as well.
Orion: Please, please don't listen to him! Ugh, how did things turn out like this…?
Luka: Oops, we've veered off topic. I asked Y/N if I could join her in her baking.
Now that you've seen my work, you'll undoubtedly accept my offer, right?
Choices
1) I want to make them with friends…
2) We can't make such art like you do.
— I want to make them with friends…
Luka: What are you saying? You and I are friends; no, we're more than that!
Orion: Don't create relationships from thin air! She said she wants to make them with her actual friends!
— We can't make such art like you do.
Luka: Don't worry about it. That's why I am here to help!
Orion: Umm… but you guys just want to make some normal sweets, right?
end Choices
Orion: Anyway, it was Sawa who asked you to join. You can't just invite Luka without checking with her first…
Sawa: Well, then, how about we make them as a group of four?
Orion: S-Sawa…!? Are you sure…?
Luka: Oh, she gets it! You are a truly wonderful friend.
Toma: Sawa, don't just invite him like that. We still have no idea who this person is.
Sawa: No worries, I've been wondering for a bit if I've seen him around before…
You were the one who decorated the cake at the Christmas party, right?
Luka: You're correct. That reminds me, you were…
The one who couldn't wait for the cake to be finished, right?
Sawa blushes
Sawa: Ah… you caught that, huh? How embarrassing.
Orion: A connection point…! I mean, we met back then too, so I guess it’s not really that surprising…
Sawa: If he got the green light for that, there's no chance this school would bring on someone with a sketchy background.
You saw the Christmas cake too, right, Toma? Wow, I can't believe someone with such awesome skills is about to join us…!
Chances like this are pretty rare, and don't you want to eat something delicious too, Toma?
Toma: I'm happy with whatever as long as it’s from Y/N…
Luka: Not just "whatever" will suffice. Of course, you'd be happier if you got something beautiful!
Toma: S-Sure…
Luka: Good. Now that we've decided, let's meet in the kitchen after school. Let's make something beautiful together!
Sawa: Yes!
Orion: Y-Yes…
Place: School dorms — Heroine's room
Orion: I honestly didn't think we'd bump into Luka so often…
But now we keep bumping into him like every day lately.
Stones hit the window
Orion: …Did you hear that noise from outside now too? Don't tell me…
…..
…Maybe I was just imagining it? It's already nighttime after all…
Whatever, at first it was just the three of you, but then, out of nowhere, more girls jumped in too…
It's as if you guys went to a chocolate-making class after school. Speaking about that…
Even with all those people around, watching Luka still engage with everyone really changed my view of him for the better. Even if it's just a bit—
Another stone hits the window
Orion: …..
…I heard that strange noise again. Looks like there's actually someone there…
What do we do, Y/N? There's only one person I can think of who might pull this off, or more like, only one person who would actually do it…
Choices
1) I'll look outside the window.
2) …Can you do me a favor, Orion?
— I'll look outside the window.
Orion: …Okay, but we still don't really know who the person is for sure.
Take a quick look through the curtains, and if we see someone, we can figure out our next move.
…There was nobody there. That's strange; I totally thought Luka would be out there.
If he wasn't there, it might not have been him, but it's still weird…
— …Can you do me a favor, Orion?
Orion: You're right, I can distance myself from you a little bit…
Okay, I'll do it. I'll go check, and you stay here.
I checked outside, Y/N. But… Luka wasn't there.
end Choices
Orion: Was it really just my imagination after all? Maybe Lukas has been playing around with me so much that I'm overreacting now…
Someone knocks on the door
Orion: Nn…! That's a bit earlier than normal today, but I guess it's just the teacher on patrol.
Luckily you're in your room like you're supposed to.
Y/N opens the door
Luka: Jeez, why didn't you open the window? I was waiting in the cold for you to come out...
Orion: W-Wait! What are you hugging her for!? Get away from Y/N!
Luka: Ah, I'm sorry. I was just looking for warmth, yet I ended up doing something as bold as this.
Orion: What do you mean "just"!? I knew it was Luka out there just a moment ago… Geez, and we let our guard down!
Luka: To be honest, Y/N, my heart has ached to see you again.
That is why I simply decided to stop by and fill in the blanks.
Orion: Not only did he barge into her room without asking, but he hugged her too!? That's it; I'm taking back what I said earlier!
Luka: I know I see you every day after school, but our opportunities to talk have decreased significantly.
If opportunities do not present themselves, we must create them. Nothing can possibly separate me from you, Y/N.
Orion: There are signs, but you're just ignoring them!
Aghh, I wish he could hear me… Y/N, you need to give him a good riposte in my place!
Choices
1) The teacher will come by soon.
2) This is the girls' dormitory, you know…
— The teacher will come by soon.
Luka: Well then, I will simply hide somewhere for the time being. That way, we can get away with it, correct?
— This is the girls' dormitory, you know…
Luka: Hm? I know. You're here after all, so it's obvious.
Orion: And he just brushed it off that easily…! At least pretend like you're a bit flustered about it!
end Choices
Someone knocks on the door
Luka: ….. !
Ukyo: Sorry, Y/N. There's something I'd like to ask you. Could you please open the door?
Luka: Don't open it. You cannot allow a man to enter at this hour.
If you let your guard down for even a moment, you never know what he'll do to you.
Orion: …You should say the exact same back to him.
Ukyo: …Y/N? ...From outside, I thought I saw the light on...
Hey, Y/N? Are you there?
…..
There's no answer, even though I'm sure her lights were on before. If something were to happen to her...
I have to use the spare key in this case...!
Luka: A spare key? To think he would dare to use something like this to gain himself access to your room…
Could you please wait here for a moment, Y/N?
I'm truly disappointed in you, Ukyo-sensei! Aren't you supposed to be a teacher loved by your students!?
Ukyo: Ah…! Luka, what were you doing in Y/N's room!?
Luka: I came here to see her. Isn't that obvious?
Ukyo: T-That's bad. Someone told me that a strange person had gone into the girls' dorm, which is why I went to check it out for myself!
Luka: Then that was not me. Nobody would dare to call me "suspicious" to begin with.
Ukyo: I don't think it could have been anyone else. The person who called said they saw them on this floor.
Luka: Haha, no way. Calling me suspicious is truly a twisted joke.
Ukyo: I'm sure they were serious about it… Either way, I can't let you stay here any longer, no matter what!
I'm sorry Luka seems to have given you trouble, Y/N.
I'll take care of him and bring him with me. Lock your door and go to bed just to be safe.
Luka: You cannot do that. I've only just arrived and haven't had time to speak with her properly...
Ukyo: Sure, sure. I'll listen to whatever you have to say as long as I get you out of here first.
Well then… Good night, Y/N.
Luka: Ukyo-sensei, please stop grabbing the fur like that!
Ukyo: If I don't, you'll run away. Seriously… I thought you had left, but to think you were hiding in a place like this…
Once we're out of here, I'll let the headmaster give a lecture that you can already prepare for!
Luka: P-Please don't… If I'm ordered to run 100 laps around the track again, I'll die!
Ukyo: Ah… I'm sure the only reason he made you run before was to train your mind.
Luka: Your headmaster must be a sadist. He should know I'm not a sportsperson…!
Door closes
Orion: Finally, it's over…
I'm super happy Ukyo-sensei was around to take care of this situation… but…
For him to actually show up at the girls' dorms just goes to show how much he wanted to see you…
Ah!? No, I can't feel sorry for someone like that; he's obviously bad!
But it did sound like the punishment would be harsh…
—13th February
Sawa: Haa, tomorrow's the big day—Valentine's Day!
Mine: Finally. Everyone has gotten a lot better at baking with Lukas's help...
Sawa: He didn't need to be so picky about my decorations, though.
Mine: Ah, yeah. He also warned me about how much pressure to use to squeeze the cream…
Sawa: “The baked sweets need to have a perfect balance; otherwise, the sponge will puff up…”
If it was even a little burnt or messed up, you had to start over… that was really tough.
Orion: That's why everyone got super serious as soon as they began measuring their ingredients…
Mine: But hey, because of that, all three of us ended up making perfect cakes.
Sawa: Honestly, I don't even want to give it away anymore now. Maybe I'll just eat it myself…
Mine: Sawa… Usually, I'd be pretty surprised by what you just said… but this time I'm on the same page as you.
It was so much work to do, though… which is the main reason I need to give it to someone!
Sawa: You're right. Okay, let's give this our best tomorrow.
Mine: Yes! Let's give it our all!
Luka: W-Wait right there!
Luka sprints over
Luka: …Haa, thank goodness. I made it on time...!
Mine: Luka… Is something wrong?
Luka: Yes… I'm sorry, but could you come with me for a moment?
This is an urgent matter for me; there isn't time to explain.
Orion: W-Why does he seem a little more serious than usual…?
Sawa: I don't really know what's up, but I think you should go with him.
Choices
1) Yes, I'll go.
2) Then, I'll leave the cake with you.
— Yes, I'll go.
Luka: Thank you. Well then, follow me.
— Then, I'll leave the cake with you.
Sawa: You're right. I'll drop it off in your—
Luka: N-No, it would be troublesome if you don't bring it!
Orion: Eh? That's weird… Isn't he in a hurry?
end Choices
Luka: I'll be borrowing Y/N then.
Sawa: Yes, I'll make sure to secure you an evening meal too, Y/N!
Mine: Please let us know if you're going to be late.
Orion: It's so great to have these two as friends. Alright, we're off!
Place: Outside — Rose Garden
Orion: …Seriously though, what happened? Does he need help or something…?
Luka: …..
Orion: Hm…? Why did Luka suddenly stop here?
Luka: Well… It may be a day early, but I don't think it's a huge deal.
Orion: …..?
Luka: Do you… know what I mean?
Orion: I'm sorry, I don't understand anything he's trying to say… Do you?
Choices
1) What do you mean, exactly?
2) Didn't you have an urgent matter?
— What do you mean, exactly?
Luka: Err… What I mean is that I'd like you to give me your artwork as a present.
Orion: …When he says "artwork," is he talking about the cake you made?
Luka: Look, right here. The rose garden is simply glowing under the current setting sun… Isn't this the perfect scenario?
— Didn't you have an urgent matter?
Luka: This is the matter. You can't possibly give your artwork to a man who doesn't understand its value, right?
Orion: No, even if he insists on it… I mean, after all this exaggeration…
He can't just come up and ask you, "I want your cake," can he…?
end Choices
Luka: Now's the perfect time! Together, let's embark on this new adventure in a location as lovely as a rose garden!
Ah… I shouldn't. I was about to become overly obsessed with beauty once again.
But… the sun will set soon.
Orion: What is he even saying…? Can't we just go back home pretending this never happened?
Luka: …..
If you're hesitant to give it to me, does that mean you'd rather give it to someone else?
Or are you merely trying to hide your embarrassment again? In that case I prefer the second option…
Orion: Hm…? I figured he'd be his usual assertive self, but he's not…
Luka: …..
Actually, when I told someone about you before, Y/N, they were quite angry with me.
I was told that if I didn't show consideration for others, they might end up disliking me... which is why… I'm a little scared.
You did an excellent job making Valentine's Day sweets…
But you said you were going to give it to the boy named Toma, right?
The cake you created is stunning indeed, but…
…If it was created with someone other than me in mind, it would make me sad.
Luka: I love beautiful things, but… I wouldn't want to destroy it.
…Of course, if I did that, you would despise me, right? Especially given the amount of time you spent on it.
As you took the cake and began to leave, a sudden sense of unease came over me...
That's when I started wondering if perhaps I could get my hands on it before it was given to another man…
…..
…Isn't that an ugly thought?
Choices
1) That's not true.
2) I don't care about that.
— That's not true.
Luka: …I never thought you'd say that. Do you truly believe that these feelings are even slightly beautiful?
If I were able to show you in a visible form what I am currently feeling inside of me…
I believe you'd be surprised by how ugly it would be...
— I don't care about that.
Luka: …If I could be more like that, this would be easier for me as well. Unfortunately, it cannot be that way for me.
Up until now, I had judged things and people based merely on their beauty.
Something like this has never happened to me before… This is the first time I'm not sure how to respond.
end Choices
Orion: He's been playing games with you all this time, and now he's saying things like this…
…..
…It feels as if Luka's one of those guys you can't help but like; it's hard to hate him.
Luka: …Leaving things half-finished is the least beautiful thing there is. Okay, fine… I'll be straight with you.
That cake you made, I—
Shin: Hey, you. What are you doing here with Y/N?
Orion: Ah, Shin and Toma…
Toma: Y/N, weren't you with Sawa and the others just a bit ago?
Shin: It was likely this guy who said something smooth to break them apart.
Luka: Could you both be quiet for a moment? I'm having an important conversation with her right now.
Shin: I won't keep quiet, and you seriously shouldn't hang out with someone like this dude either.
Toma: The sun's about to set, so let's head back to the dorms for today, okay?
Luka: I will not… allow you two to take her away from me!
Shin: Hey, let go. We said we're taking her with us now.
Luka: And you think I'll simply say "alright, sure" and let go of her hand?
Orion: W-Wait, don't yank Y/N around like that!
Toma: Aren't you being a bit immature? By competing with us, I mean.
Luka: You're the ones competing here. On top of that, it's extremely cowardly to have a 2 vs 1 in this matter...!
Shin: Just let go of her hands; that's all you need to do. Y/N is coming back with us.
Orion: Neither is good right now! We need to stop this before you… Ah!
Toma: Hm…? You dropped something, Y/N. What is it…?
Luka: Aghhh! Hey, you guys! What have you done with Y/N's precious artwork!?
Shin: “Artwork”...? Ah, that reminds me, didn't you take art as an elective subject?
Toma: Did you make this in class...? Then I hope it's not broken...
Luka: No, it was fragile from the start; the impact just now must have broken it for sure.
Toma: What was in there? Y/N, can I open it…?
Shin: This is… a cake, right? It kinda lost its shape, though.
Toma: Cake? Don't tell me… is this the Valentine's Day cake you made with Sawa?
Luka: Of course it is! Ah, my god. It was such a beautifully shaped cake as well…!
Orion: It's not like you can't eat it anymore, but…
Choices
1) You are cruel…
2) I worked so hard on this.
— You are cruel…
Toma: I-I'm sorry. I'll make sure to eat all of it!
Shin: …Why are you keeping it to yourself? I'll own up to what happened too.
Luka: Even if its beauty fades, Y/N, the taste remains unchanged. Please cheer up.
— I worked so hard on this.
Luka: It may be impossible to restore it, but your efforts will not be in vain.
Whatever form it may be in, I'll make sure to eat it all!
Toma: No, don't bother. Shin and I are going to eat it.
Shin: Exactly. It's better if he wasn't there anyways.
Luka: Whatever either of you says, I'll eat it!
end Choices
Luka: Now that I can eat it, everything will go as planned because I wanted to get this cake from her anyhow!
Shin: You wanted this, huh…? Is that why you guys were here together?
Toma: Let's head back to the dorms, you two. We can eat and enjoy the cake there.
Luka: Hold on. You cannot simply leave me out of this.
I'll make sure to follow you to the dorms then! This way, you will be unable to escape!
Both: …..
Orion: If this keeps up, it's gonna be a lot more exhausting when you guys head back to the dorms together…
It could've gone a different way, but hey, maybe it's best that they all get to enjoy the cake together.
Even though Luka was all serious for a bit, he totally went back to being his usual self again.
After all of that, I guess you can at least try the cake you made yourself too, right…?
I’M SO SORRY I’M REALLY LATE BUT, This is a gift for @satansnumberonehooker‘s Amnesia Exchange! My Gift person wanted Luka, and it took me so long to get this done. ;; Hanna, if you could reblog this and tag them, I’d be really thankful!
It took me three tries to try and figure out how this mans hair works, and every time I tried to draw him with a different expression, it always came back to this one.
