You don't have to find me a textbook, I have mine at home.

[He's not here for homework.]

[aquaticrush]

Oh, ah, sorry. I just wanted to make sure I could help you out. ...And, um, thank you. You didn't have to.

[goatsongs]

It's not a big deal.

[It's just super against the rules for him to be here, that's all.]

[aquaticrush]

I won't tell the librarians. I think they'd get upset, so I'm trying not to let them know about you, anyway.

[goatsongs]

They're jerks.

[Most adults are jerks, in Chuuya's opinion.]

[aquaticrush]

I don't think they're that bad! They only want to keep people safe.

[goatsongs]

They're still jerks.

[Chuuya is not the most mature of middle-schoolers.]

[aquaticrush]

Oh, no, did someone yell at you?

[goatsongs]

[Chuuya nods. In actuality it was more like scolding, if that.]

I wasn't even doing anything wrong.

[...This is doubtful.]

[aquaticrush]

I'm sure they just don't want you to get hurt, but Shirogane-san can be a little harsh. He did summon us for a reason.

[goatsongs]

[I googled him and wow this guy definitely has to be older to be employed at the library]

Just because he's saving books doesn't mean he has to be a jerk about it.

[aquaticrush]

[he runs a restaurant at 15 in canon because screw the rules, he has money]

I suppose, but he's nice to me... I mean, well, he doesn't yell at me when I drop something.

[Same thing, really.]

[goatsongs]

You've got really low standards.

[This is something Chuuya has said to her before, a lot.]

[aquaticrush]

[This is why she's friends with an angry child.]

But it's really nice to have people who don't get upset with me all the time!

[goatsongs]

Low standards! Get better friends!

[aquaticrush]

But I'm dead... [sulk] Really, it's okay. I know I'm not really, um, a role model for being strong or brave or anything, but I think they're nice people.

[goatsongs]

Just because you're dead doesn't mean you can't talk to living people. You talk to me.

[Not that they're friends or anything.]

[aquaticrush]

I suppose. I hope it isn't too much trouble, with everything else you've got to deal with.

[goatsongs]

Just because I'm saving people from monsters doesn't mean I don't have any social life. It's easier with you instead of somebody who doesn't know, anyway.

[aquaticrush]

I suppose. Are you getting along with your teammates? Do you think you've found them all yet? I mean, everyone who was injected with those samples like you were.

[goatsongs]

How am I even supposed to know how many there are? There's a lot of endangered animals out there.

[They could be searching for a while.]

[aquaticrush]

They can't have injected that many people! ...I think.

[goatsongs]

I don't know how expensive this stuff is, but I'd believe they could've injected as many people as they wanted to.

[aquaticrush]

At least that should be a help, right?

[goatsongs]

Have you ever tried to get a class's worth of middle school boys to agree on anything?
