Chapter 01: The Calm Before the Next Storm - Starry Sky [Video/Action]

[kamiyandisease]

[Someone is feeling a bit adventurous and daring tonight! If you’re walking by or looking out your window of House 4, you’ll find that one misfortunate loser who just so happens to be sitting on top of the roof. For a moment, he looks a bit uneasy because plenty of bad things could happen when you’re sitting on a rooftop! But regardless, he still

I-Isn't it a little late for this, Touma-san? [Yaaawn.] But you shouldn't be breaking any laws up there... Uhm, perhaps you should ask the house's inhabitants for permission, just in case they think you're trespassing?

[Blah, tired. Nodoka, why are you answering now? ...Zombies?] Z-Zombies?! Real zombies would certainly be a possibility here, wouldn't it?

[kamiyandisease]

[He'll laugh a bit at her cute sounding yawn.] Haha... It's never too late to check out the stars! And I guess I had a lot of on my mind, so I couldn't really sleep that easily.

[ERK.] I-I guess so! But that's still a scary thought... I'd rather leave those guys to the horror movies instead of real life.

[Voice] This was always here. I didn't forget at all.

[alreadyknowsyou]

Well I suppose night time would be the best time for stargazing. You have to wonder if this place as similar constellations to what was present back home. [There's a little rummaging about as Nodoka picks the journal up and heads over to sit by a window in her apartment and stares outside.] Hmm?

They can be scary enough in horror movies. I d-don't know what I would do if I saw a real one! [You would run Nodoka. You would run and hide. Unless the zombie felt like telling you its name, then you'd be set.]

[Voice] It's alright!

[kamiyandisease]

[Touma shall lay back as he holds the journal up.] Um... I was just thinking about home and all the homework that I would have to make up. Komoe-sensei has probably filled up my phone machine with tons of love messages saying: "Kamijou-kun, you still have to go your make-up classes today~♥"

Aaah... I don't know either. I think I would stick with the team with the most weapons and who are used to fighting zombies. [He would probably run himself unless someone was in trouble, then he would have to stand his ground against them.]

[Voice] <333

[alreadyknowsyou]

It's been a little over a month at this point, hasn't it? I-I imagine there would be quite a lot of homework for you to do by now! But don't worry, you can keep up to speed by going to school here, right? [The most reassuring of things to say. Go to another world, do homework.] Komoe-sensei... Was your teacher? And she would leave you love messages?! [Lucky.]

I'd probably find myself in the group of people waiting to be saved, I don't think there wouldn't be much I could do. [So moving away from zombies...] What if it wasn't zombies but... Hmm... Vampires?

[Voice]

[kamiyandisease]

Such misfortune!! No matter how much I try, I'll always be behind at school! [A beat.] Huh? There's an actual school here? This is the first I've heard of it. Who told you this, Nodoka-san? [Touma pauses and wonders if love message would be the right thing to say.] W-well, that was a joke... [But his teacher does have a crush on him, alas.] It would be very problematic if I was involved in any student-teacher relations.

V-Vampires?! Waaah... I would have to find some garlic, crosses and stakes to defend myself! Hey, Nodoka-san... Aren't vampires weak against mirrors, too?

[Voice]

[alreadyknowsyou]

Well, I read about it in the guide when I first arrived. Then I went with Minako-san to the placement test. Did you read the guide at all? [Ah reading, proving it's uses.] A-Ah I see. That would probably be... Y-Yes, problematic. Uhm. [ALL THE THOUGHTS. Oh Negi-sensei.]

Weak against mirrors? I-I'm aware in literature that vampires don't have reflections, but I don't think they would be weak to them. The only creature I'm aware of with that property would probably be the mythological Medusa!

[Voice]

[kamiyandisease]

Um, um... More importantly! Maybe I could enroll myself! It would be interesting to be in a class together with Nodoka-san. [BULLET DODGED.] What classes do they take there?

Heh... I'm not really good when it comes to the knowing the mechanics between magic and supernatural stuff like that. If I ever meet this Medusa obaa-san, I'll be sure not to look her in the eye. [Or maybe she could be a smoking hot older sister type... He could secretly roll with that!]

[Voice]

[alreadyknowsyou]

Yes, I suppose you could. I-It would be nice to be in a class with you, and even if we weren't in the same class we could still meet up for lunch and at breaks. [...Just going to assume he has read it then!] There's mathematics, science and writing, I-I think. Which of those are you strongest at Touma-san?

That would be best, I don't think anyone would enjoy being turned to stone. [And she would know... Wait, what? B-But snake hair! SNAKE HAIR. How could he roll with that?] What else... How about werewolves? [Having fun just going through horror creatures right now.]

[Voice]

[kamiyandisease]

Heh heh... Is my life going to become a high school romantic comedy with you around? [He's going to make an awkward pause there.] Um... I'd say that I've got a good grasp on mathematics and science... I never really tried a writing class before, to be honest.

Or I would at least have a handy pocket mirror on me. [He would pray that she would have long flowing purple hair!] I've never met a werewolf! Those guys are weak against... rabbit's feet, right?

[Voice]

[alreadyknowsyou]

E-Eh?! U-Uhm... [Cough. Ahem. If only it were possible to hear how red her face is. Alas.] Th-That's good to hear! You get placed in classes based upon your ability rather than your age here, so perhaps we'll be together for mathematics and science. I-I think I'd like that. If you ever need help with your writing or literature then I wouldn't mind helping out!

Well hopefully there won't be any medusas going around, so there shouldn't be any need for that. [But still. Stone gaze. Petrification!] Rabbit's feet? I-I don't think so. Silver bullets seem to be what most people think of... Where did you get rabbit's feet from?

[Voice]

[kamiyandisease]

So it would be the ranking tests in Acedemy City. Although, I doubt that I would be ranked "Level 0" for something like this. [P-Private lessons with Nodoka?! Why does that make his heart skip a beat or two? Calm down, Kamijou Touma.] I'd appreciate it, Nodoka-san. I know that you would be a great writer!

I see! Eh? Maybe I got rabbit's feet confused for what people wear when they want good luck. [Touma logic at its finest.]

[Voice]

[alreadyknowsyou]

I doubt you would be ranked that low either, so do your best and aim for a high rank! [Heh, she hasn't caught on yet that private lessons might come up, even after she offered. She told Minako she wouldn't min d helping her out either so it doesn't seem like much of a 'thing'.] W-Well, eheh, I'm an alright writer I think.

[Is it even possible to get something that brings good luck and something that kills werewolves mixed up? Never mind.] That must have been what happened, I've never heard of rabbit's feet stopping werewolves. [Next creature?] I think we've covered most monsters you associate with Halloween... Oh! Would mummies count?

[Voice]

[kamiyandisease]

Alright! Kamijou-san is getting more motivated to do schoolwork than ever before! [DARN. Not the special case-- I mean] You should seriously write a novel of your adventures. I think it might end up selling well.

M... mummies? I've seen a giant paper monster before, but not a mummy. Are you some kind of secret occult otaku, Nodoka-san?

[Voice]

[alreadyknowsyou]

Great! It's good to hear you're feeling motivated. I'm sure you'll do even better now. [It probably would sell pretty good, however:] I-I don't think it would sell very well here. [lolnomoney.] I wonder how all my friends would feel about being characters in a novel... But anyway, I think your adventures would sell very well too!

N-No, I'm nothing like that. I just happen to read a lot, so I end up finding out about all sorts of things. Fictional monsters included.

[Voice]

[kamiyandisease]

You would have to ask them for permission before writing them in... I think it works like that. You really think so? All of the adventures that I've been through would turn a normal person's view of reality upside down!

... You really would get along well with Index. Not to mention, you would be a great rolemodel for her.
