Sora: HaHa~♪ Happy Valentine’s Day!
Hello! Sora is also healthy and doing super today! Is everyone well too?
???: Yes. Hello, Sora-kun.
Sora: Senpai!
HiHi~♪ “This” senpai is fluffy and lovely just like usual~!
???: Is that so? I think I was designed with ill intentions, though.
Mophead: Why am I so fluffy? My name also appears to be locked and I can’t change it for some reason. I’m stuck as “Mophead”.
Frankly, I look just like a monster – the scary and gross kind you’d find in your nightmares. Don’t you think so?
Sora: That’s not true at all! You’re adorable, Senpai! Have some confidence in yourself!
Mophead: Adorable? Well, I suppose that’s fine~ My appearance doesn’t particularly bother me.
Sora: Actually, Master~ is always saying you should pay more attention to your appearance because you’re always unfashionable.
Mophead: Haha. I don’t really care about fashion, but I see. So Natsume-kun forced this appearance on me to make me open my eyes.
In other words, Natsume-kun is trying to show his affection for me in another way!
Sora: That’s right! Master~ loves Senpai!
Mophead: When you put it like that, I think I’m starting to get attached to this monster-like appearance!
That made me happy, so I’ll send Natsume-kun a message! I’ll thank him for opening my eyes and I’ll also tell him that I love him!
And sent!
Natsume: I just got gross spam maIL. Maybe I should report it to the poliCE?
Mophead: Spam mail? That’s not good, Natsume-kun! It might be a good idea to report it to the police, but please discuss it with us first, okay?
We’ll always support you, Natsume-kun!
Natsume: You don’t get sarcaSM…? What’s with this monster, anywAY? Could you stay away from mE?
Mophead: Weren’t you the one who forced this appearance onto me!?
Sora: HuHu~♪ Speak of the devil~! Master~ Happy Valentine’s Day ☆
Natsume: ThanKS. Happy Valentine’s Day, SoRA ♪
…You’re in an oddly good moOD. It’s strange for you to be acting this way, considering what you’re about to dO.
Don’t tell me you’re treating everything like it’s a video game because we’re in a cyberworLD? I’m worriED.
Mophead: It’s not very commendable to get too absorbed in video games or the internet, Sora-kun.
It’s not healthy, either. Let’s live in reality, alright?
Natsume: You’re saying that when you’re the personification of unhealtHY…? Being able to focus for long periods of time when it’s related to digital matters is also one of Sora’s strengtHS. We should look on the bright side of thinGS.
Besides, I don’t think the “anomaly” would’ve been fixed if it wasn’t for Sora’s peculiarity and susceptibility to iT.
Sora: HeHe~♪ Was Sora helpful because Sora is a “weird kid”?
Natsume: YeAH. There’s no need to feel guilty or ashamed for being different, SoRA.
You have a pair of eyes that sees things differently than us ordinary people, and at times, those eyes allow you to see things that shouldn’t exist in this worLD.
But dreams are also a “reality” the brain has acknowledgED. Everything that you see shouldn’t also be treated as “unrealiTY”.
The incident that happened this time was very strange and mysterioUS. People with common sense in this world might say it was “something someone who was half asleep sAW”.
But we believe yOU. We do, so we’ll lend you our strengTH.
To love doesn’t mean to affirm everything, but we love you, after aLL.
As I thought, with my eyes that see, I’d like to see you with a smile on your faCE.
Sora: Okay. Sora wants to always smile too. That’s exactly why…
Mophead: I’ve always had this thought, but Sora-kun has never had any issues understanding your oddly conceptual expressions right away.
Natsume: You’re looking at it the wrong wAY. I’m wording them in a way that’s easiest for Sora to understaND.
You act like an older brother with a wealth of life experiences, but you’re still terrible at using “magIC”.
You should learn a thing or two from Sora and work hard to hone your skilLS.
Sora: Right. Sora will also do his best.
Sora will work hard. At the very least, Sora will…
