Ninth Chapter

[liedohneworter]

Ok, please hold on one moment before you try to take Rue seriously... damn it. damn damn damn. The potion was so strong, it wasn't supposed to be used by anyone!

Rue is under a love potion I made, but i swear this is not as bad as it sounds!! Hear me out! Her cat accidentally knocked the potion-which i had been brewing to merely work on my potion

Sounds like a very interesting research subject, perhaps I could assist you this year, you've caught my interest on collecting data.

I...ah, I see. I'm sorry to hear it holds a rather sad story to it. This must be a very sentimental blend, then.

I'm sure you would enjoy that quite a lot, I will bring you along during Spring break when i visit there again. I hope you don't mind though, my parents will not be able to host you, I live alone on current circumstances. However, it should not be much of a problem if most of our time is spent visiting museums and tea cafes.

I presume you must be very talented at Potions and Ancient Runes, then? Those are both some of my favorite subjects at the school.

I'm not quite sure if you've heard of it, since it was only published in Germany, but there's an old book called 'The Prince and the Raven' by D. Drosselmeyer. They say he was a brilliant wizard of his time, and his work is almost controversial but i happen to enjoy it quite a bit.

I'm quite glad I've met you, I hope we'll continue to be on good terms.

If you'd like, I'd be more than happy for the help. Just bring the subject up in casual conversation and write down the statistics in a notepad on hand.

Yes, Mamiya was my childhood friend growing up. Drinking rose-hip tea became a favorite over years and perhaps by default, I drink it to preserve his memory? All the same, I'm sure you will like it.

Sounds like an excellent plan. I can't wait to make the trip. Are there any countries you have always wanted to visit?

Potions is where one of my talents lie, but runes aren't really my forte. I have nothing against them, rather it's not my specality.

"The Raven and the Prince?" It sounds like a very interesting read. Would you mind if I borrowed it sometime?

I know a famous poet named Edgar Allen Poe. He was born Janurary 18, 1809 in Boston, Massachusetts in the United States of America. He was quite well known for his gothic literature, spanning in both poetry and short story format. One of his most famous works was called "The Raven." You might be interested in checking it out.

I'm quite sure we will. In fact, with so many common interests, I am sure we will become good friends for life.

Trust me, I have a strong feeling things will work out.

[liedohneworter]

Sounds simple enough, I will start working on that once school starts again.

Your friend's name was Mamiya? I suppose if he was a friend of yours, I would have liked to have known him. I'm sure I will like the tea.

Well, I haven't seen much of Denmark, which is quite the historical country, isn't it?

I see. I had a feeling you were good at potions, though. I wouldn't doubt we'll be in the same potions class this year.

You are absolutely welcome to read it anytime you wish! I'm suprised, not many people are interesting in reading besides a few bookworms like myself.

Oh! You're a fan of his work? I enjoy most of his literature, especially the one you've just mentioned. You're certainly well-read, aren't you?

The way things are going, I wouldn't doubt it.

Thank you, I certainly wish for the best.

[sacred_delusion]

Oh, it would seem so. Scanning through my atlas, it seems to be expanded territory with a lot of historical signifance ranging from both past to present set up.

Perhaps we might. I need to make out a final schedule for this coming semester. When you have a spare chance, let me glance over yours to see if we have any of the same.

Hm, with that said, the book must be quite lengthy and in detail. Always the best kind, especially from a myth.

Thanks, I try. I'm sure you know a few good novels I haven't had the chance to read yet. My Father was a scientist, so he was always working abroad and my Mother was gone most of the time. I kept myself busy expanding my horizons through books, hoping one day to achieve something great in this world that would benefit humanity.

Again, let me know if you decide to visit France early. You are always welcome here.

[liedohneworter]

Wonderful, then I would highly suggest looking into that further.

Certainly. Over my visit, we'll have plenty to discuss over that topic.

I'm impressed, my Father was a big researcher like myself. I do believe you will reach your goal, Souji. So far you've been nothing less than the top of your abilities.

I... think I may. Would you be offended if I came over after the upcomming weekend?

[sacred_delusion]

Yes, we'll definately keep ourselves busy. It's been quite a while since I've last invited a guest over.

You think so? Thanks for the support, it's nice to hear I'm not alone here.

Oh, not at all. As I mentioned, my schedule is pretty bare at the moment. Just drop in whenever you are ready, my friend.

[liedohneworter]

Thank you Souji, you've offered quite a lot of kindness to me. I hope I can repay you someday
