Well, the 23rd Century was nice. It'll be pleasant when I naturally reach it. So.

Near the end of term, final tests should be soon, for everyone. You all have just 6 weeks left, most likely.

If anyone has any jitters, I'm willing to listen.

No jitters on my part, but it's good to see you back, Ms. Wakahisa.

Thank you Mr. Yagami.

...How would you fix alcoholism, if approached about it?

Pavlovian reinforcement. Repetitive Tapes. Alcoholics Anonymous Meetings. Hypnotism.

...Right. Thanks, Ms. Wakahisa.

Alternatively, drink non-Alcoholic Alcohol.

...Pink... Hair?

That's probably a better idea.

Change of style. I think it looks good.

And I'd suggest a combination of all the above. And talk with friends and family.

I do too, but it's a bit... Surprising.

That would be... You and... Allen. ...I need to make more friends.

How so?

I do hope your family didn't die in some tragic accident.

And yes you should. I suggest talking with your students, and getting to know the rest of the staff.

It's pink.

Nah. I just lost touch with them after my 'disappearance.' Never bothered to try and touch base with any of them.

My students are Allen. He's the only one who shows up to my class anymore. ...I guess the other teachers might be worth a shot.

And?

I see. How dreadful.

... You remind me of the story of another teacher I heard of once. What do you teach by the way?

It's an odd color for hair.

Eh. I don't even remember how much time passed here until I crawled out of that hole, so they probably think I'm dead anyway.

...Health. It's one of the only things I can remember from university.

Eh.

How dreadful as well.

... Shouldn't that be mandatory?

...It is, but everyone thinks I'm skipping out, when I'm really asleep under the desk. If they would wake me, I could teach.

...

Stop sleeping, ya lazy bum.

...

Thanks for the words of encouragement.

You can have another later.

How thoughtful.

... 23rd...

... I'm surprised that it's gonna be that soon. I didn't even notice that the school year was almost over...

23rd.

Well, you are a studious person, Samasu-kun.

... Ah. It's just... I'm almost going to miss this place, now that I know the graduation is going to come up very soon, as well.

Well, you had several good years, yes?

... "Good" is a very relative word.

Even after the four years here... It's still surprising.

That you're graduating?

Yes.

Either that, or that I'm still relatively coherent.

Well both are good, so be happy.

... Hah. I will.

I'm glad you at least seemed to have a nice time on your break.

Oh it was fantastic.

That's good. Though... Have to say, never would have expected a point in time to be a viable place to spend a break at...

Specifically it was a spa.

... Ah, that makes more logical sense, then.

Yes. A spa in the 23rd century.

... Well, to what one enjoys.

It was quiet and therapeutic.

I'd figure. But again, to what one enjoys.

... Y'have some weird vacation spots...

Gift from one of my daughters.

Y'sure have some daughters t' be goin' an' sendin' ya to another century.

Not really. If they were being clever, it would be an alternate universe.

Well that'd be even more shockin' t' me. It's already hard enough t' imagine someone's kids sendin' them to th' future or somethin' like that.

I sent myself.

... An' yet oddly, that's even more understandable than it should be.

So, do you need anything, Mr. Samasu?

Yeah, actually.

We were supposed t'be havin' an appointment after your business an' all was done.

Drop by when you have the time. I can clear my schedule easily.

Thanks. 'ppreciate it.
