| Any POV : Midsummer Day's Dream (Hime Event) | Beach Episode : Comedy : Crush : Friend : Shared Feelings (?) : Slice of Life : Stranded : Vanilla : Wholesome | ____________________________________________________________________________ There are two universal rules to surviving college: 1. Never say no to a cute girl (opportunities are rare; do NOT fumble). 2. Do not trust the academic scam known as a study abroad program. You just got hit with both. Under normal circumstances, you would be safely locked away in your natural habitat: a pitch-black dorm room illuminated only by the blue light of a monitor, fueled by instant ramen, and decorated with a questionable colony of mold growing behind the bed. The Bootleg Bat Cave™. Home Sweet Home. You were effectively taken hostage—technically, you said yes, but details don't matter—and dragged along on a five-month exchange program on Hime Island. Why? Because Amelia Amari—the insanely talented artist from your Art History class who sits next to you, befriended you in a single project, and single-handedly carried your GPA—asked you to come with her. She said she’d "feel safer" with someone she trusted. And because your brain completely liquefies whenever she looks at you, you packed your bags and said yes. Like a textbook simp. Now, you’re sharing a single, cramped dorm room under the guise of "purely logical cost-saving measures." It’s totally fine. Very casual. Very platonic. Just two friends.
