14th Persona

[action; town; morning]

[Welp, with Labor Day having passed by, today is now the official start of school. For Minato, this means he is now a senior! How sweet is that?

Only problem? His sleep schedule.

So now a certain sleepy-head protag is running with all his might. All he can think is thank god for Track Team. Hope you're not in his path.]

morning

[backinblackcity]

[Hilda's never been a morning person, and summer vacation didn't encourage a proper sleep schedule. So she'll be running along, too, with all her months-spent-on-the-road-endurance. There is Cinccino perched on her head, which is really just like a big chinchilla with a few more tails than usual.]

Are you not used to this sort of thing either?

[doudemoe]

[Running alongside another student to school, this really feels like spring, except.]

This feels totally out of season.

[backinblackcity]

When does school start for you?

[Hilda being from not!America and all.]

[doudemoe]

Back home, April.

[backinblackcity]

It started in September where I'm from, but kids my age don't go to school, so...

[She is pretty sure she will never get used to having to get up so early.]

[doudemoe]

Eh? No way!

[Look at girl. She seems about his age.]

[backinblackcity]

Well, if you're studying for something you stay in school, but Pokemon trainers go on journeys instead.

[doudemoe]

Oh. I don't think we've met yet. I'm Minato.

[backinblackcity]

I'm Hilda! It's nice to meet you.

[Even if it's running to school.]

I think I'm in twelfth grade now? That's what the schedule I got in the mail said, anyway.

[doudemoe]

Yeah, me too.

[It's kind of nice, running to school with a girl his age. Makes a man forget that this ordinary scenery isn't exactly ordinary.]

[backinblackcity]

[Yeah, it's definitely better than running on her own.]

Hey, cool, maybe we'll have some classes together.

[doudemoe]

Maybe. Too bad they don't teach Pokemon.

[backinblackcity]

[Hilda laughs.]

I'd be better at that class than some of these. I think I got caught up last school year, at least.

[...Wow, has she really been here a whole summer...]

[doudemoe]

[It's hard to believe. But now, he could say he's lived in Mayfield longer than in Port Island...that's a scary thought.]

That's good. Maybe you could sleep through some classes.

[backinblackcity]

I guess grades don't really matter here, but I can still remember my mom yelling at me for bringing home a bad report card.

[She laughs a bit.]

[doudemoe]

[He laughs a bit too.]

[Are they near the school yet?]
