[bunniefuu]

A school?

Were you a student here, Nazuna?

I don't know.

Can vampires even go to school?

I don't know.

Do you think there's a clue to your past here?

I don't know.

Don't gimme that look, dammit!

I used to come here.

I think about ten years ago, maybe.

You have trouble remembering things from just ten years ago?

Wh-What'd I say about that look?!

Chill. I remember stuff from ten years ago.

It's just that some of what I remember isn't all that happy.

But we're on a journey of self-discovery here, right?

I need you to come along with me.

Right! So let's go find ourselves!

All right!

And then you substitute this here.

Nazuna! There's a class in session.

Well, yeah.

It's a night class.

For people who can't go to school during the day. Some young people, a lotta adults.

I didn't know this world existed.

Hey!

Sleeping in my class? You're brave!

Sorry! I took on some extra shifts at work and I'm wiped out.

Jeez.

Kou. Hey.

Huh?

Have you noticed?

Noticed what?

Well, look.

Life is short.

You decide how to make use of the time given to you.

It's Niko.

Choose the path that feels right to you.

Live without regrets...

She totally froze up.

{OP}

Midnight alight sees ego, desire, regrets come and go

Vision blurred by rain I see your wet silhouette in a neon glow

Please don't wake until the morning, time will flow

Woo yeah, yeah, yeah

With a resigned face I say goodnight

Thought I'd caught up, but it's a mirage

Lemme feel you like I did in those days

Thrown away any dignity I had for show

I f*cked up in so many ways, yeah

Night doesn't go by slow

A lighter in the dark but the gas is low

Status quo

Hold up a sec, huh

I got a family, I got a life

Won't be torn away

Before I could even start lying she had me straddled

La di la di la la

Today she's humming a tune while unlocking my suite

Walks to her own beat

It started years ago but now we're on repeat

Gotta choose, a place in the sun or embrace darkness so sweet

Write more

Sing more

Demands then laughs

We melt into tomorrow just as you planned

Not that I care, as you see

Can't stop ya, ha ha ha

With a resigned face I say goodnight

Thought I'd caught up, but it's a mirage

Lemme feel you like I did in those days

Thrown away any dignity I had for show

I f*cked up in so many ways, yeah

Night doesn't go by slow

A lighter in the dark but the gas is low

Status quo

{Part A}

What are you two doing here?

Finding ourselves.

Niko, you're a teacher?

Uh, yeah.

"Finding yourselves"? Get real.

Aw, ya got me.

Oh, did I?

Yeah. Actually, we came here to listen to you barf sunshine and rainbows at a bunch of idiot humans.

I'll k*ll you!

She wasn't kidding. We're on a journey of self-discovery.

You were born a vampire?

The offspring of a vampire and a mortal?

Seriously?

Cross my heart and hope to die.

Regardless, I need to learn more.

Why don't you two stay for my next class?

Okay!

Everyone, we have some new students with us today.

Ms. Nanakusa, please introduce yourself.

Oh, uh, hey. I'm Nanakusa Nazuna.

Um, er...

I like drinking and gaming.

And, uh... what else d'you need to know?

Oh, and I'm a vam—

Thank you, Ms. Nanakusa! You and I can talk later!

What did she say?

Van? Vamoose?

What was that all about?

Sorry. I just panicked.

Did you get stage fright?

I dunno.

I didn't think I did.

You're next, Mr. Yamori.

Nice to meet all of you.

My name is Yamori Kou, and I'm excited to join your class today.

I'm only in junior high, so I wouldn't normally be here,

but I've received special permission from Ms. Hirata to participate today.

I'm sure I won't be able to keep up with the lesson,

but I hope you can at least teach me a little something about life.

Thank you for having me.

Oh, thanks!

That was scary.

Huh?

Were you like that at school?

For the most part.

Freaky.

Get off my back!

Okay, let's get started!

Okay!

Okay, time's up!

You're free to go to your clubs and such.

Yes, ma'am!

Yamori, right?

You're in junior high?

You're very well-spoken.

Why'd you come here?

What junior high?

Uh, Komori.

Hey, I graduated from there!

All right! Local boy!

What'd you think of the class?

What's wrong?

So who's the girl with you? Nanakusa, right?

Pretty childish.

Well, I can't turn on the charm like Kou does.

Plus, you know, vampire. I felt awkward.

You never opened up this much.

He's influencing you.

Maybe it's for the best.

What is?!

Hey, Nazuna.

Do you remember Mejiro?

Yeesh.

Finally ditched them.

Diary

Mejiro Kyouko

A diary...
She appeared out of the blue.

As if she belonged here.

Didn't she like you?

Wasn't she the first person you ever considered turning?

Her name is Nanakusa Nazuna.

You're late, Yamori.

Where's Nazuna?

She went to find you.

That's...

Did you read it?

Who is this Mejiro?

Nazuna's very first human friend, who she met in the literature club's room.

What?

I thought I was her first friend.

What?

Yo.

You're quite the charmer.

You too.

I read Mejiro's diary and got an idea of what you used to be like.

Though I wish I could've heard it from you directly.

I didn't think I'd ever have to talk about her.

But okay, I'll tell you everything.

First off, Mejiro Kyouko's parents died in their home here.

Right in front of her.

The one who destroyed Mejiro's family was a vampire.

Good morning.

Good evening, Nanakusa.

I thought it was about time you came.

th Night: You're Too Stupid

{Part B}
th Night: You're Too Stupid

So, as you can see, we have a new student with us today.

Ms. Nanakusa, please introduce yourself.
Ten Years Ago

Uh, um, uh, I'm Nanakusa Nazuna.

That's her entire introduction?!

Aw, she's nervous!

What's wrong?

Why's everybody laughing at me?

I guess the humans have day classes too.

Feels kinda spooky now.

Maybe I can find an empty room to wait in.

Who are you?

Nanakusa Nazuna.

Can I hang out here?

Do as you like.

Nanakusa Nazuna?

Hello?

She won't wake up.

If you don't wake up, I'll kiss you.

Hear me?

I'll do it!

Oh!

You woke up.

Wha... Wha... Why did you do that?

You looked cute, so I couldn't resist.

What is wrong with you?!

Do you always creep on sleeping people?

No.

This is the first time I've made a move on someone.

That kind of makes it worse.

Okay, so you like girls, huh?

Got a problem with that?

I think anyone can fall in love with anyone.

Well, duh.

I'm not saying I'm into girls, though.

What's her deal?

But I'm definitely not into boys.

Most of the women I know like men.

You're different.

You think so?

Do you like women who are different?

I guess so.

Cool.

By the way, didn't class start a while ago?

That's okay.

You're not going?

Nah. It was kinda boring anyway.

Yeah.

If you don't mind me asking, is this your first time attending school?

Yeah, that's right. So what?

Y-You're much more different than me!

I'm getting laughed at again.

Sorry. Did I hurt your feelings?

Are you going home?

I'm gonna keep reading a little longer.

I asked you from the start if I could hang out here.

Do as you like.

Nazuna was strangely innocent.

What are you reading?

A mystery novel.

Do people die in them?

Yeah, but it's mostly about solving the crime.

She absorbed ideas like a child,

You okay?

What's with that look?

Didn't care for my recommendation?

I'll find another genre for you—

Mejiro!

Are there more of these?!

Yep.

Welcome to the literature club!

I wanna be a private eye when I grow up!

Detectives are cool!

Dream on. You're too stupid.

What did you say?!

You think you could be a private eye?

Well...

I don't think real detective work is the way it is in whodunits.

They don't get to make speeches about their amazing deductions.

Mostly they handle petty cases, like lost items and sleazy affairs.

I'm not into that kinda stuff.

It's all a lie?

Detective aren't cool?

Aw, I didn't mean to burst your bubble! My bad!

as if she'd never talked with other people before.

But then,

she could change in the blink of an eye.

She could even seem surprisingly mature.

I've noticed you around.

And, uh, wanna go out with me?

Sorry, but I don't feel that way about you.

I mean, I don't even know your name.

And yet, you want a relationship with me.

Does that mean you like my looks?

If so, you've got bad taste. I'm not that cute.

Or is it that?

Did you think I'd be a pushover?

That a quiet girl like me would gladly fall for you?

Or that even if I said no, I wasn't likely to tell anyone?

Sorry, my bad.

Um, excuse me!

I didn't mean to eavesdrop...

Don't worry about it.

Wasn't that kinda harsh? I think you went a little too far.

Wow.

So you're capable of empathy after all.

Now you're being harsh to me.

He wanted to take a shot without the risk.

If he got lucky, he'd score a girlfriend.

That's how guys single out girls.

You're awfully tough on guys.

You think so?

I know you well enough to know you're usually a straight sh**ter.

But there's more to this than you're admitting.

Every evening I spent with her,

I can't fool you.

she became more human.

Truth is, I hate my dad.

He and my mom fight nonstop.

She says he's cheating on her.

She's always crying.

I hate being at home.

My dad's fake, guilty grin...

My mom's tear-streaked face...

I can't stand any of it.

I shouldn't be telling you all this.

You don't know what to say, do you?

That's why I don't talk about it.

Huh?

Sorry, could you repeat all that?

Huh?!

Uh, I was just saying that my family is toxic.

Huh?

I don't have a family, so I didn't get most of that.

Not the response I was expecting!

Where do you live?

I've been on my own as long as I can remember,

but the past is kinda blurry.

Anyway, I hope your parents work things out.

I get it now.

If you had a place to go home to, you wouldn't be her with me all the time.

I'm glad you are, though!

She's so...

I see.

Is your dad really sleeping around?

Hey.

This girl is so...

Do you wanna investigate him?

I happen to be a future private eye.

very, very interesting.

Sounds like you two were really close.

Why are you telling me all this?

Keep your pants on! All will be revealed!

Thing is, it didn't last.

Huh?

The friendship ended, and that's why I'm here.

Whoa, I've never worn a school uniform before.

You look so cute I could kiss you!

Don't be stupid!

Wait, why am I wearing this?

Good question, rookie.

As detectives, we need to melt into the cityscape.

An undercover disguise is essential.

You don't want to look like a detective, right?

You have to look forgettable.

Now, let's go, Watson!

You have no idea how ridiculous you look, do you?

Is that any way to speak to an older student?

Just kidding.

This way, Nanakusa.

This is my dad's room.

Let's get to work.

What was that room I changed in?

The living room.

But we also eat and sleep there.

You and your mom don't have bedrooms?

I'd k*ll for my own room.

It's not that they can't afford it.

I think they were intending to move to a bigger place someday,

but at some point they gave up planning for the future.

What's wrong? Why're you upset?

It's a mixture of frustration and relief.

Sounds complicated.

I can't find anything that isn't work-related.

Photos

What if they're smutty photos?

I'd respect him for getting away with it in this tiny apartment.

Who's that?

Me.

When?

First day of grade school, I think.

Looks like you grew up in a loving home.

So embarrassing!
Shutting down

We didn't find anything.

Maybe he isn't cheating after all.

That would be some good news, at least.

What?

One drawer's locked.

This calls for...

Piece of cake.

Whoa.

You'd make a better thief than a detective.

It's a fine line.

Let's see what's in here.

I gave him this lighter years ago.

It's a precious keepsake.

I dunno.

Maybe this is where he keeps stuff he doesn't want.

This one's never been used.

It's brand-new.

He never used the gift I gave him...

Did he quit smoking?

Maybe.

Sleep now, until you can seize the night yourself

Sleep now, until the night has torn that sleep from you

When it does, let's play

Dance until morning comes

But until that happens keep your sleep to yourself

Ah, 'fore I realize it's , light's gone dark

Hey, guess the day's already done

Oi, who's spouting that crap?

We ain't done playing even if you have to be carried to bed

Hey, had an epiphany, no wonder the adults have been rushing me

You're laying upside down like in Mama's arms, yeah

Then you remember and lash out at my head

Start to stand, get wobbly, crying as you fall

Collapsed in a heap like how I spend my mornings, yeah

Sleep now, until you can seize the night yourself

Sleep now, until the night has torn that sleep from you

When it does, let's play

Dance until morning comes

But until that happens keep your sleep to yourself

Just a lil more

Just a song more

Just one more, yeah

Just a lil more

Just a song more

Just one more

Until we get each other
