41... now is time for serious things, like puppy dogs and silver rings

[ video ]

[ Ryuichi loves the video function of his communicator a lot, doesn't he? This time around, he is sitting on the edge of the stage at the High School auditorium, strumming his guitar. He's got a fuzzy pink jacket on over a worn shirt and his hair has been combed back into a sloppy ponytail. A few strands have escaped free and they curl against his cheeks. The communicator is pointed up at him, although the body of a guitar covers half of the view. After a few moments of strumming a few chords, he launches into an acoustic version of this song. That song morphs into another song before Ryuichi gets tired of that and sets the guitar down. Unfortunately for the viewing world, he sets it down on top of the communicator, but at least he didn't turn it off. ]

So another year older, huh? That makes it what? Same age as him? Older? No... younger. But still...

Winter marches on.

Umm, the twentieth? I don't know.

I've been practicing!

[ Making a note to ask someone else who pays attention to dates. ]

I'm glad! It sounds like you've been playing guitar for years.

[ Dates just gets in the way, Tohma. ]

I probably would be in trouble if this was an electric guitar.

...Why is that?

No electricity in the apartment.

Well, it would give us an excuse to always go to the auditorium together. Speaking of which, that Suzumiya-san has pretty much taken it over....

Too bad for her that I'm still going to use it the way it's meant to be used.

Is that so? Do you need any help?

We're not letting a group of people looking for ghosts to take over the only good music venue in this place, are we?

Well, it seems she's putting on a play of sorts. Maybe it'll be a musical~

I doubt it. She doesn't seem like that kind unless she can really sing.

I think she's a director of sorts. Directors can't be actors or stars in anything like that, Ryuichi.

That's boring of her.

Someone needs to be in charge.

It's one thing to be in charge, but it's another thing to be in charge and not do anything else.

[ What are you trying to say? My cushy job as president makes me lame? ]

You're right~ You're never really important unless you do something. People can direct themselves.

[ We all know that Tohma is a President just to tide time over until the next big Grasper moment. ]

That they can.

Well, I don't mind if she takes over the auditorium so much. After all, we have the band room.

[ Smiiiiile~ ]

She needs to let others play too.

[ SMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILE~ ]

The band room is more fun, I think.

[ MY SMILE IS BIGGER. I CAN SHINE, TOO! ]

Well, at least we can lock the doors there.

[ Pouts at the smile and then traces the outline of his upper lip and nibbles lightly on his finger tip. ]

Right?

Mhmm. It's definitely a private place.

[ Toned-down smile now. ]

I'm sorry I didn't go to the high school with you, though.

With good insulation.

That's okay. You need to make sure Suguru is doing okay.

You're right!

He lied to me, I think. On the day he arrived, I asked him if he was cold and he told me no, so I put off finding a coat for him.... I wonder if he's gotten so sick because not being able to play music is frustrating him so badly.

...Is he gonna be alright?

[ Puts the flirting on pause and looks serious. ]
