i miss you (i hate it)

There must be something in his voice, something defeated, edging into dangerously familiar territory, because Max squints at him again, straightening her spine and shooting him her most serious look. “Mike, are you sure this is, like, okay?”

Mike scoffs. “Of course it’s not okay, Max. He looked- he was so beautiful. And he hates me.”

“No, I- I get that, and that sucks, but you’re not…” she pauses for a moment, clearly struggling to find the words. “You just seem more calm about it than I might have expected, and sometimes when you get like that it’s a sign that you’re about to do- to do something drastic. Like- calm before the storm, or whatever.”

Mike stops drumming his fingers against the table, giving her a long look. “I don’t do that anymore,” he says after a moment of consideration, “you know that.”

“I do,” Max allows, a little haltingly, “but it’s- it’s Will.”

*reddie’s your byler*

I literally had to step away multiple times to process my thoughts and feelings (and EMOTIONS!!!) but you’re absolutely right, I feel like I have a much clearer understanding of Circumstances™️ than I did before

😭😭😭 brb I’m sobbing

Awwww, Meg! *hugs*

I was hoping it would have that effect, mwa-haha. >8) bmckfjfiv Btw, you just made my day. Thank you. ♥

I was really anxious, wondering if you all would enjoy this update; I'm sooo glad you did! ♥ And I really think that understanding will (hopefully) help with the next choices in the game. :X

Ch03:  Bow Hall Performance - Haru no Yuki (Part 2)

So on to that all important story of the butterflies:

In the middle of a performance, an underclassman gifted me a blue butterfly she found that eerily resembled the one on the poster.  The next day, another kid comes over boasting “Hey, I found another one~” And I wound up with 2 butterflies.

So I put these two Mr. Butterflies in a shoe box at the time, intending to return them to the costume department later.  The pranks calmed down a bit after that.

Then came the day of the final performance.

The curtain descended on my favorite Bow Hall [performance].  How I miss it. However, as a memento, I stuck one of the butterflies backstage in a snug place on the stage-left quick change partition.  That little butterfly has been with me in my memories since.

Years later, Ryou-chan (Tamaki Ryou), while starring in Bow Hall, goes through the trouble to tell me “Hey, that butterfly is still there!”

…I couldn’t believe it.  That little guy was still there?  I always figured someone would have thrown it away while cleaning.  So I went to see for myself and…

IT WAS THERE!!  (Here’s a picture)

Might have shed a tear [when I saw it].  It even fluttered its wings for me… Actually, it was just the breeze from a mini-fan but it sometimes looks real when the wings move…

(I only glued it from the striped portion [so the wings are flexible].)

I brought that butterfly home right then and there. It was as if that butterfly had watched over those many other underclassmen who starred in Bow Hall after it was put there.
