AN: Third chapter! I mean, you know that already if you're reading this, but I'm so proud and giddy about this fic, I feel like I have to announce everything. ^^
Unfortunately, despite my best efforts, the characters are still not mine. T^T
Fakir pondered his options. 1: Dismiss the letter as a misaddressed prank and pretend he never received such a baffling thing. 2: Accept it as truth and face the possibility that Ahiru was a magical student, and, therefore – human.
Personally, he much preferred the second. If this wasn't a joke, and Ahiru was indeed human, he would regain a companion, a friend – his only friend now that Mytho was gone. The deafening silence would be filled, the depressing loneliness would end, not that he would ever admit it aloud, of course. He had his pride.
However, even if she had been a student once, how many years had passed since she entered Kinkan? Since she left the school? Time in Kinkan had passed differently under the enchantment, and Fakir had no idea if the school was still open. Nevertheless, one question had to be answered.
Would Ahiru recognize the letter?
AN: Sorry to disappoint you, CouldNotThinkOfAName (and Black Okami too, actually), but I'm sticking to the 150-word format for the time being.
See you next update!
Same duck-time, same duck-channel!
