Afternoon Affairs
Who: Nayuki & anybody else who's free and willing
What: Paying a Visit to the Student Council & Exploring School Facilities
Where: Inside Nanakamado Escalator School Premises
When: Immediately After classes... just as the dismissal bell rang, actually.
Why: Nayuki promised to pay President Retsu a personal visit & to properly witness after school activities.

"Pleased to make everyone's acquaintance. My name is Tonbo Nayuki. I transferred here from Nagano Nishi High. I will be in your care in these years to come."

And that's how it started.

Section 2-B seemed like a pretty lively bunch, much to his surprise, and everyone welcomed him right in. He wasn't quite sure if it was just for formality's sake or out of something quite genuine, though. Without bothering to contemplate over that fact, he saw through the entire day of class in full attention. Homeroom was quite a dizzying experience as he caught a barrage of questions from his new classmates. The attention was something he'd never get used to, and he hoped that it would die down as the days would pass. Fortunately, he was at his best behaviour today, a special focus training that his best friend taught him. The rest of the lessons went on with nary a hitch. And as testament that he had quite a lot to catch up to, Nayuki flicked through almost eleven pages worth of notes concerning things he was not familiar with. He let out a deep breath as soon as the bell chimed to indicate the conclusion of the day's tutelage. Everyone began to pack up, eager to be elsewhere.

And with the pressure of first-impressions finally subsiding, Nayuki decided it was time to do a little exploring. Haven been seated at the rear of the classroom, he didn't waste any moment to sneak out from his new peers. Whispering his sincerest apologies, he made a beeline to the rear door before anyone else would think of accosting him for anything that might delay him in his plans. To be honest, he believed the travel to be faster if he would only ask one of his new classmates for directions, but another side of him savoured the chance to literally get lost in campus and map our everything in his head from there.

At that point in time, he could only wonder if he will be successful in his 'evasive action'.

"Hummm, what do you mean by that Sempai?" Misaki looked at him curiously and then laughed some. She wasn't sure about this boy but he didn't give her the feeling that Tom did. So that was a plus. He was polite and nice, but it made her wonder if it was an act or not.

"Don't worry about teasing me sempai, I get that a lot. I don't think badly of you at all Sempai, I think you're a very nice person, and I'm glad I got to meet you." Misaki smiled sweetly. She looked suprised at his next question. "Um...just about anytime after six usually. It's quiet then and I come to check on him and bring him dinner. He leaves it open twenty four hours since it's near the hospital. He has different workers for different shifts."

It would sound silly, but...

"I just thought of something silly, and meant that it would have been nice to have known you earlier than this." Nayuki shrugged, they stopped walking for a bit so he decided to lean against a bulletin board. This pink-haired girl gave him a bit of reassurance with the outcome of his actions, and that made him smile. "I'll be sure to stop by Hanakotoba after work, as my room could a touch or more of flowers." He then gently gazes at Misaki's blue-contact eyes, "It's really a pleasant surprise to meet someone like you here, Aoi-san." He shyly looks down to avoid further embarrassment. "Well, I mean... I've only known two other people who are just as openly nice as you are."

Nayuki failed to stop the words from escaping his mouth. "The first is my dad." He paused for a bit, snapping out in time before bitterness set in. "And the other is my best friend who's still at Nagano Nishi." Staring out the window, he continues, with his hands animately moving along with his words, "She's just like you, you know? She cares about anyone, just because she can. And she always looks at the brighter side of things, which tends to become infectious at one point. I help her out a lot with some of the council's tasks even when I'm not even part of it. Everyone in campus practically branded me as her shadow, something I didn't mind, as it felt natural for me to come to anyone's aid." He then lets out a sheepish grin, "What did set me apart from her was the fact that I was a stickler for school regulations. It caused me a lot of trouble outside school but, in the grand scheme of things, it only served to fuel my resolve."

"I'm not really sure, but I think I end up gravitating towards people who are very honest with themselves... because I got tired of people keeping up appearances just to exist, myself included." He then brushes his hand against his hair and pushes himself off the board to flank Misaki once more. "Though all that changed when I finally convinced myself to just do what I wanted. Again, thanks to my best friend's incessant prodding." He chuckles and shakes his head, "I grew a new set of backbones and told my relatives that I wanted to transfer here to take control of my future." It took a while, but he finally realized something and gave Misaki a playful smile, "I'm sorry... I didn't think I'd end up ranting on you." He looks on to the path ahead, "Which room did you need to deliver the papers to?"

Misaki listened quietly as they walked and stood there calmly as he ranted. It seemed the right thing to do, for her own sake if not his. Taking in everything that he said Misaki gave him a understanding look as she patted his shoulder, "Semapi it's fine. I don't mind you talking to me about such things. And I would really like to meet your best friend, she seems like someone very special to you."

Misaki glanced around, um...actually, I think we already passed it." She laughed some. "I'll back track, you should get back to your class, you'll be late if you don't."

A pat on Nayuki's shoulder was all it took. His face may not have betrayed it, but he was choked by his memories and was reminded of his circumstances. There are no more political maneuvering in here. No more people who would bend over for him to curry favors. No more envy or worship for stature. He is finally free of his tiresome mask. Misaki's touch had somehow confirmed everything for him. "I'll be sure to introduce you to one another when the opportunity arises." With his features loosening up, he finally gave out his most genuine of smiles. "You two would definitely hit it off."

Turning about, he continues to flank Misaki, shaking his head, "I'll head back as soon as I see you to your destination, Aoi-san." He made sure he wasn't hovering too close to be rude, or too far to be thought of something else. "Etiquette dicta---" He quickly clears his throat, "No... It's just not in me not to see this through. So..." He gives her a mock-salute, chuckling as they retrace their steps through in the corridor. "I hope you can bear my company for just a bit longer."

Yes, Nayuki thought to himself, No more masks. This is good. This is me.
