It wasn't too badly, don't worry. How was your day, hime?

She's just going to tuck her thumb between her fingers and playfully gasp. "You mean... this nose right here? Is this your nose?"

🍀 The boy gave a hearty laugh at the barrage of questions his mother had to offer him as he saw her.

“Mom, mom! Slow down! It’s too much at once!” He couldn’t deny it was great to see her, though, even if it had only been a week or two since his move in here. Not that his life here at the academy had been awful, but…well…it was  a bit much.

“Well…let me think….I’ve been keeping up alright with the general studies, but I don’t really know what they’re going to expect out of me in the final exam…guess I’ll have to see when it comes to that.”

“Friends though…well, I’ve been trying. Think I’ve had better luck outside the school than in it. It’s …not really what I expected, honestly. Living with all these prodigies….it feels like talent doesn’t come without a price. Like for example - you know Iruma, the inventor behind the eye drop contact lenses? Turns out she pretty much never sleeps….when I went to ask her about it, she called me a pervert and kept insisting I just wanted something out of her….you think that’s how people like that get treated growing up? She’s probably just used to that being the case…”

Ah! Sorry mama, guess I just got a bit excited at seeing you.

I didn’t scare you too badly, did I?

     “Ah, thanks mom! I’m glad you remembered!”
