This is quite late, I know, but I was sick throughout the whole week and so I didn't have legit any strength to write anything. Sorry. Also, the name for Takane's college friend, Ayahi Asumi, was taken from two voice actresses. The last name was taken from Kana Asumi, who voiced Takane in the Mekakucity Actors anime and many other characters, and the first name was taken from Takagaki Ayahi, who voiced many characters including Chris Yukine from Senki Zesshou Symphogear, who I think is quite similar to Takane. So there you go.


"Hey, Takane-chan! Your boyfriend's here looking for you!" Takane looked up at her friend's words and towards the direction of her voice. In the doorway of her classroom was Haruka, waving and a huge smile plastered on his face. Her best friend in college, Ayahi Asumi, was also smiling, but it was a sly smile. She sighed dramatically.

"Ah, how nice it is to have a boyfriend!" she said. "I want a boyfriend~! Especially with you two and all the PDA shoved in my face!" Takane's face heated up.

"You're engaged, you know!" said Takane. Ayahi laughed.

"It's a family thing, you know! Arranged by my parents!" she said. "Although I must admit he's pretty nice... But that's not the point! I'll just leave now since I'll let you two be by yourselves! Bye~!" With that, she skipped out of the classroom. Takane sighed. She had never thought she would become best friends with someone like Ayahi. Unlike Takane, Ayahi was energetic and bubbly. She reminded Takane of Momo to some extent. Although she didn't seem like a very caring person, she would listen to Takane if she ever had things to rant about. Haruka walked over to where she was sitting and peered at her computer screen.

"Wow, that's so cool, Takane! I don't even know what those mean! I just see a bunch of letters and numbers!" he said, laughing. Takane smiled.

"You just have to start learning them. Once you know a few, it gets easier." she said. Although she did learn the codes that way, spending two years of her life absorbed in the cyber world really did help a lot. She saw complex codes like these every day in those two years.

"What type of game are you making right now?" asked Haruka, looking extremely interested.

"It's a fantasy-themed RPG where you are have a certain clan you belong to and power. You level up, and beat monsters. It's quite simple, actually." said Takane. Haruka smiled.

"That's cool!" he said. He paused, then looked at her excitedly. "Hey, Takane, what do you think their roles would be if they played?" At first, Takane didn't understand who Haruka was talking about, but then she realized. The Mekakushi Dan.

"Let's see... Shintaro-kun would be a sword-wielder, right? He would fight solo until he realized the importance of teamwork! He would probably be really arrogant and think that he would be better of fighting alone, but after joining the team he would warm up and show that he's actually a really good person and shed the cold facade. He'd probably be part of a shadow clan or something like that!" said Haruka, smiling.

"Are you making up stories for them?!" asked Takane, not knowing if she should laugh or cry.

"Yep!" said Haruka. "And Ayano-chan would be the healer of the team, and she'd be the one trying to convince Shintaro to join! She'd be really kind and helpful, and although she doesn't fight upfront, she supports the team with her healing powers! And she'd be part of the wind clan!" Takane smiled.

"Then Marry would be the princess-like one and part of the flower clan, wouldn't she? She'd probably also be a healer of some sort, and she'd seem weak but she would be the strongest one out of all of us when we get in a pinch, you know what I'm saying?" she said, laughing. She could have sworn Haruka's smile got bigger the moment she joined in on their story.

"Kido would be part of the ice clan, and she'd be... What do you think she'll be, Takane?" asked Haruka.

"A bow-user." said Takane, without a single pause. She smiled. She could really see the story coming together. It would be amazing.

"Seto would be the brave warrior who would always save the princess, Marry, when danger approaches her. He'd be part of the wood clan!" said Haruka. Takane nodded in agreement.

"Kano would also be part of the shadow clan like Shintaro, and he'd be really good with disguises and doing small tricks in the back. Momo would be part of the fire clan and she'd be one of the ones leading the group forward." she said.

"Hibiya would be a young magician from the water clan! That suits him, doesn't it?" said Haruka. Takane laughed. She could totally see that in her mind.

"And Ene and Konoha would be happily in love, just like us." Hearing this, Takane turned to look at Haruka. He smiles and takes Takane's hands.

"I love you, Takane!" he said. "Even if our world changes, I'll still love you." Takane's face heated up and she turned away.

"W-What does that have to do with anything...? Y-You don't have to tell me out of nowhere..." she said, blushing. There was a small silence before she opened her mouth to speak.

"I love you too, idiot." she said. Haruka stood up out of the chair.

"Let's go back now!" he said, smiling. "Our home is waiting for us."
