Why is Noriko making everyone I'm involved with go back to high school.

This is an alarming trend.

Guess I should at least keep an eye on the academy in the forseeable future. Also maybe pick out some clothes juuust in case. Can't be too careful.

Akuma needs the education and it's good for her to make some friends and feel young.

Euphie is because she's been troublesome and she is a teenager. Besides, it'll keep her distracted from trying to end the world by doing wizard-science.

And what, do you want me to make you a teenager again or something?

I suppose I can't fault those arguments. It just makes me feel weird.

And I'd prefer if you didn't, every time I'm reminded of my teenager self I have to find something to occupy myself with until I can repress it.

Hey, I can do a number of things to help with that.

That just makes me feel like I should do something about that.

...I'm not sure if I should inquire further, Noriko.

But I didn't become cool and self-sufficient until after High School...!

In private then.

... So? You talked about picking out clothes. It means you want to go back.

I said I was picking out clothes in case I became the only one you hadn't sent back to high school! I was being cautious!

I don't wanna go back to having noodle arms and being a complete loser!

... Onni, you're really not helping your case here.

...What's so wrong with liking the person you became long after high school was over...!?

I dunno, why do you seem to hate it?

Because I was a dumb idiot loser who made a lot of incredibly bad choices and who jumped from one sinking ship to the next, metaphorically speaking?

I meant, why do you hate being an adult all of a sudden.

...I don't? Well I mean, I'm not. Against it.

But...?

...I guess I'm a bit bored and restless. And it's weird being a bit of an... outlier all of a sudden. Nothing specifically to do with me wanting to go back to being a teen.

But being a teenager would help you feel more energetic, and that's why you want to be one.

...I guess, but I have bad memories of high school and don't want to go back to being Wimpy McNoodlearms.

It couldn't of been all bad.

...Most of it was me getting bodied by stuff way tougher than me and bouncing from one girl to the next after the rebound from Hoshi. And being a complete dweeb.

Also I think I went crazy around that time. I honestly can't remember.

Maybe you need a high school experience that isn't crazy. Shrug.

But anyways, Akuma and Euphie are going for mental health and socialization reasons.

...Maybe, but isn't it normal to have a high school experience that was an unmitigated disaster?

...I suppose it'll be for the best, they seem a bit. Hard to connect with otherwise. If nothing else the academy helped me reach out and make friends.

High School was wicked for me. I became a God.

I.... think you might be a statistical outlier on that one, Noriko.

Screw you. I became a living God. High School is fucking awesome.

And after Highschool I became an The Unconquerable Wall. Post high-school life rocks too.

If you're so worried about being a noodle, why not be a jock this time around.

...Eh? A jock?

Uh huh.

...

Hm. I guess a jock would have a less difficult time...

Yeah, just you might get a really bad first impression possibly.

So, what, business as usual, then?

Yup, but you're the scary guy this time.

....

I shouldn't be entertaining this idea.

And yet...

If you want to follow through, just swing by my office.

>:< You and your temptations.
