Shizuku #488: That's What I Was Hoping For!
Shizuku
Listening to you could be really useful for character analysis, Setsuna. I'd love to hear you talk more.
Setsuna
You really think so? I just can't stop once I start talking about the things that I like…
Setsuna
Sometimes it comes back to me while I'm lying in bed and it makes me feel so embarrassed.
Shizuku
Well, you don't have to worry about it at all when you're talking to me!
Shizuku
You're familiar with completely different kinds of stories than I am, so it's very helpful to me!
Setsuna
In that case… May I tell you about a movie based on a book that I saw the other day?
Setsuna
There was a girl serving a noble family in Europe. One day, she traveled with the nobles to a big old manor, where she encountered a fairy.
Setsuna
The fairy couldn't leave the manor, so it took great delight in every one of the girl's stories.
Shizuku
*Giggle* That fairy sounds a lot like me right now.
Setsuna
Huh?
Shizuku
Well, I'm also taking great delight in your story right now.
Setsuna
Thank you very much! But it's about to get even more exciting from here!
Shizuku
I can't wait to hear it!
[Fade in/out.]
Shizuku
Wow… That was a really fascinating story!
Setsuna
Oops, I'm so sorry. I got way too caught up in my own story there.
Shizuku
No, I should apologize! I'm the one who kept asking you to continue.
Shizuku
You sure were talking for an awfully long time though. Are you thirsty?
Shizuku
If so, why don't we stop by a café on the way home?
Setsuna
Oh, I'd love that! But if we go to a café, I'm bound to just start talking again…
Shizuku
*Giggle* That's exactly what I was hoping for!
