25. apprehensive preparation

Grad stories. Tell me them.

The more embarrassing or weird the better, really, I need to feel encouraged that at least not all of it can possibly happen to me at once.

I'm in the same boat as you. But graduation usually goes smoothly. Nothing to worry about, you know?

[ifbymyhands]

Think so? I'm not sure.

[baaaaseball]

Well, what are you worried about, specifically?

[ifbymyhands]

I could fall on the stage, get sick, fall in a puddle... I don't know, aliens could invade?

[baaaaseball]

I think that's last one is pretty impossible.

The more you worry, the more likely you're worries come true, you know.

[ifbymyhands]

Nothing's impossible!

Which is why I'm inviting the community to let me laugh at them instead.

[baaaaseball]

Ahaha. Fair enough! I'm not worried though.

You should wear another kimono to your graduation ceremony! Go out in style!

[ifbymyhands]

I'm wearing the one I wore to your world. Without wings under it this time.

[baaaaseball]

I should go to your ceremony. You know, liven things up a little.

[ifbymyhands]

You'd definitely make it more interesting.

[baaaaseball]

Would I be allowed to? I wouldn't want to intrude.

[ifbymyhands]

Sure! Pretty much all of Kasumi Town is invited anyway.

[baaaaseball]

Then consider me there! What's the date for it?

[ifbymyhands]

*Insert date because I don't actually know and whenever's good to post!* Maybe it'll be fun.

[baaaaseball]

We'll make it fun. You'll see.

[ifbymyhands]

I should be scared, but I won't!

[baaaaseball]

Be excited, not scared! You're finally entering the real world!

[ifbymyhands]

What is this, the fake world?

[baaaaseball]

Hahaha. For all you know, this may just be a dream you're having over and over.

[ifbymyhands]

If it is, what kind of world do you think we'll wake up in?

[baaaaseball]

Who knows. It'll probably be one of those dream worlds that are exactly like the real world.

You know, you get up, you get dressed, you eat breakfast, you're almost late for school.

And then the alarm clock goes off.

[ifbymyhands]

So we can't be sure unless the world suddenly begins to act like a dream. Like you start flying for no reason, or you have to streak to class.

[baaaaseball]

...I think Masato might have made those both a reality at some point in time.

[ifbymyhands]

Made people fly and stole their clothes?

[baaaaseball]

He's achieved flight in the form of accidently tripping out the third floor window and forgot to dress because he woke up late for class one day, and showed up in his pajama pants and nothing else. He really is something else.
