[For most of the story, Takumi listens intently in an effort to curb the unease slowly growing in his gut. He tries to approach it all logically - why would the ghost of a girl be in a bathroom at every school, for example? - and it at least helps, somewhat.
Until Leo grabs his shirt and shakes him, at which point he basically screams like a little girl. There's really no dodging that description, it is what it is.]
leo's expression is bright as he lets takumi go and falls backward, laughing his ass off and little john bolting off with a displeased sound as she's disturbed from her sleep at his antics.]
Y-You don't gotta worry about that, Taku, as long as you've been a good boy~! Ahh, ahhh, your face is gonna be the star of my compositions for days, wahaha! ♪
[this is gonna be worse the one night that takumi Has to go and leo sings his name hauntingly outside the door.]
Why not~? Inspiration's welling up, bubbling forth like a spring..♪ And with my pen drawn to paper, a world is born!
[he's rolling onto his front so he can write his new song down. ♪]
Hanako-san is important though~. She's a really popular legend back home, along with a few other school mysteries, like the piano playing by itself at night and seeing the ghost of a girl on the roof. ♪
Whatever your weird ideas are, don't put my name on it.
[Jeez. At least the topic is kind of circling back to being relevant. He straightens his shirt out and settles back into a less panicked sitting position.]
Are all things about Japan related to horror stories...?
Yeah. Well, kids do. We spend time with our families on New Year's Eve and we eat osechi on New Year's Day, and we always visit the temple at the start of a new year.
I still managed to watch the sun rise on new year's day, though, even if I couldn't make it to a temple. I don't even know that they have temples here.
[Takumi has been homesick since setting foot in this place. Missing New Year's has just made it worse.]
Do you think anyone around here sells osechi? Or maybe we can work together and make some...
