[ The video post flickers on to show two people, both looking rather different in demeanor. The taller of the two looks to have a scowl on his face, and eyes and hair a matching deep green. He’s not happy to be here, he doesn’t even feel comfortable leaving the apartment. Which is why he’s here with the shorter of the two boys.

It would’ve been hard to tell that the scruffy, blue-haired boy is the older of the two, but that’s probably part of his charm and it shows in how he addresses the network with a bright smile and a wave of his hand, as if he were a natural at this. ]


--Oh, I think we’re on! Hello, Lunatia! We’d like to introduce ourselves first of all: My name is Aoba Tsumugi, and this kind lad over here is my roommate! Ah, you should say hello too, Midorima-kun!

[ He gestures at the screen as smoothly as he could.

Midorima’s brows furrow before he’s even finished talking, looking mildly annoyed. What he’s annoyed about becomes apparent within only a few seconds as he doesn’t say hello and instead focuses in on correcting what he thinks was wrong with that sentence. ]


Who’s a “kind lad”? Focus on the task at hand.

[ Apparently, that’s all the greeting he’s bothering with. Tsumugi can only sigh a little before facing the screen again, smile still intact. ]

This is Midorima Shintarou, by the way. Seriously, kids these days… Um, but before I go off track, the reason why we’ve put this up is because we have one thing in common, and that is horoscopes. Luck, in general. Do you know there are apps here that tells you your daily fortune and what lucky item to bring around with you to ward off bad luck? Technology’s so amazing! Even though we’re from different worlds, it’s nice to know that there are other people who believe in them -- and that is why we are here today.

[ Midorima’s worried that Tsumugi’s going to go on for too long, so he chimes in with a much more direct demand of their audience over the network. ]

Respond with your astrological sign or birthday if you aren’t sure. We’re also looking to know what items are considered lucky in other worlds that may be incorporated into an apartment.

Y-You can just ask nicely them, you know! People wouldn’t know how to respond if you’re being demanding like that... [ why are tsunderes the way they are, man ] Anyway, it’d be very helpful for us to know everyone’s signs and birthdays to balance out of luck if it ever goes bad for a day so that we can stick with those people for a while… I’m a Leo and he’s a Cancer, if that helps.

Also! If anyone knows other forms of divination such as palmistry and tarot, that’d be greatly appreciated as well… I’m honestly more comfortable consulting with someone privately about my fortunes rather than rely on technology all the time, so let me know if it’s all right to approach you for regular sessions! I’ll pay with Chroma if I have to.


[ Midorima just decides to move on and end the video. He’s not going to give Tsumugi the chance to say goodbye. ]

We’re done.

[ And the video cuts out. ]

I don't know my western zodiac offhand - May 5th is my birthday - but I do know I was born in the year of the Earth Rooster.

Thank you.

This is sort of embarrassing to say publicly, but I don't really have blood anymore, so...

[Oh, it's Aoba Tsumugi again! So she's turning this on, even if he has a new friend there who doesn't look to be too into it.]

So, hello, September 2nd, I am a Virgo and a Wood Rooster.

[Guess the boys can do the math now to realise she's using the date September 2nd 1945. Hmm...?????????]

I do not have the apps myself, did anything interesting come up today? I have some interest, but it is not something I study so I would not have your knowledge. [because they all superstitious to at least a basic degree. You bet she salts places during new year.]

Eh? Is this because of your affliction, Nakajima-san?

[oh jeez.

She blinks slowly, watching the video in amusement.

Um... I can do a lot of fortune telling. I worked in a shop with my mentor and she did fortune telling a lot, all different kinds. I picked up a lot from her.

I'm best with reading tea leaves or coffee grounds, but I can do palmistry and things too. And... reading the past. I'm better with that sort of thing, but... [But she can do future reading too]

Exactly. Thank you for understanding.

[Atsushi wouldn't be offended because, you can just look it up on Wikipedia, but he appreciates the courtesy of not saying it.]

Not that it really matters in the end, but Tsumugi should know my answers... Unless he's forgotten? I suppose that's possible.

Still, I'm surprised to see that Tsumugi has managed to find a roommate, and that it's someone with a new face, as well. It seems an unexpected match... Midorima-kun, did something happen?

By the way, I'm Eichi Tenshouin. It's nice to meet you. ♪


[Why is he acting like it must have come from bizarre circumstances and he needs to check if Midorima is okay...]

[Apps, hm?]

You mean things for your phone? I'll be honest, the phones here are way more advanced than what I've got at home so I don't know the first thing about ... anything. Besides--

[She sort of gestures to the screen to indicate what she's doing right now, taking video. That and texts she got the hang of pretty smoothly.]

I do at least know I'm a Sagittarius for what it's worth.

[Right now, knowing he looks a little similar to an old childhood grumpy friend, it's actually a little nostalgic. He could use the terseness. And it's easier than facing Tsumugi right now.]

Fufu, what a cute, simple answer. That answers my question well enough. You'll do well to balance him out.

Still, you don't seem like the type of person who would be so focused on something as trivial as luck.

[ here's aoba! his partner didn't have to be so curt about it, jeez... ]

Oh, that's great! Tea leaves and coffee grounds are so quaint... We have a tea club at our school, but I'm not sure if the members know anything about it.

[ mainly because eichi doesn't believe in that crap, sighs. ]

Reading the past, though... How far back can you look back?

[Sarah gives a light smile.]

Pretty much. You don't get a lot of choice here anyhow as far as that goes.

[And if she's anything it's flexible with rules of a place. Or she's learned to be as she's aged.]

Are you asking about horoscopes just to learn about lucky items or are you just curious?

[ he waves at the camera in recognition of a newfound friend! hello, sen-chan! ]

As Midorima-kun said just now, Virgos aren't doing too well in the ranks... But don't fret! Your lucky item for today is a convenience store, and your lucky color is black.

[ just like her hair, which should suffice for now. ]

It sounds nice. I... prefer coffee over tea, though. I don't think my school had a club like that though... [She doesn't remember much about high school. Those memories are all sort of a blur at this point.

The question makes her hesitate though and she looks away a moment, self-conscious.
] ...I don't know. I haven't tested the limit before... But I can read the secrets of objects, memories associated with them, things like that... People too, if I touch them.

But it's... usually just bad memories.
