Alright. With that, my preparations for tomorrow are finished.

Uu-chan, I am thinking of heading to bed soon, how about you? It looks like you are already nice and snug…

Ushio Icon
Ushio

Yeah, go for it. I’ll be done after this.

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

Reading again, I see. It is bad for your eyes to be reading in bed.

Ushio Icon
Ushio

I’m currently bathing my eyes with the divine light radiating off my holy scripture, so if my eyes die, then so be it. I accept my fate.

Ah, but if I read anymore, my eyes might actually get better instead, so I guess I’ll join you.

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

Indeed, let us sleep for the sake of tomorrow.

But I gotta say, living in a dorm is kinda a pain.

Like, we always have to ask each other these things ‘cause it’s not like we can just selfishly turn off the lights.

Imagine if you weren't my roommate… oh the horror.

Being good friends and knowing each other for so long certainly has its perks.

Ushio Icon
Ushio

And we’ve also stayed over at each other’s place a bunch of times. …Well, at least up until middle school.

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

That is true. Although… There were many times when your actions moved me in the few days we lived together as well.

Ushio Icon
Ushio

What do you mean?

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

Well, for example, how you would properly separate light and dark laundry, or how you lined up your books based on the author’s name—

Ushio Icon
Ushio

Ahh, I get it already. I feel called out.

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

…Apologies, I may have overstepped. It is late. We should really get to bed.

Ushio Icon
Ushio

Yeah. ‘Though it’s kinda unfair I don’t get to see any new sides to you even though you’ve exposed me so much.

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

I did not mean to hide anything from you in particular.

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

…I will turn off the lights now.

*lights off*

Ushio Icon
Ushio

Huh…!?

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

…What’s wrong?

Ushio Icon
Ushio

What’s wrong…? Talk about timing, found a new side to you—

So… what’s with the sparkling stars in front of me?

Muneuji Icon
Muneuji

Why, a planetarium of course.
