Hokuto:

…… Transfer Student. Are you going to close the door as it is or are you coming in—decide within 10 seconds.

10…… 9…… 8……

I see. So you want to watch as I change out of these clothes, huh.

It’s not my intention to find fault with other people’s hobbies, but I don’t think peeping is a very praiseworthy hobby.

You’ll go outside and wait? I don’t really mind either way, you know.

I don’t have a problem with being seen…… I understand. If you say you’re going to leave the room anyway, then I have no reason to stop you.

……

You can come in now, Transfer Student.

You’re standing there all spaced-out—what’s wrong? This is the outfit the “Producer” prepared, I believe.

But, I’m surprised. You look somewhat clumsy with your fingers—surprisingly, you seem quite skilled.

I wasn’t making fun of you. That was me praising you.

Let me change my evaluation of you—as a Producer, you seem to be giving it your all.

I rarely praise people.

Since I’m surrounded by idiots lately, that tendency is becoming stronger than ever.

But just because I’ve praised you a little does not make it a good reason to slack off in your future efforts.

Transfer Student is different from the 2 idiots and is a serious person, so I think it should be fine, but I’ll remind you just in case.

So, Transfer Student. What business brings you here?

As I thought, as a Producer, you would want to check if the outfit you made was being worn stylishly or not, isn’t that right?

We haven’t known each other for long, but I understand that much.

Why are you fidgeting? If you need to use the toilet, then it’s right at the end of the hallway after you turn right when you exit the classroom.

What? You forgot something here and came back to get it?...... Everyone has moments where they make mistakes.

I’m not disappointed that you’re just here to retrieve what you forgot, and that you didn’t actually come to check on the outfit.

I really, truly am not disappointed, so relax.

…… Looks like you’re a person who can read the atmosphere.

If this were Akehoshi, he’d surely become unsettled over a stupid topic like this……

Anyhow, you don’t need to give encouragement to someone like me who’s bad at reading the atmosphere. My granny has also said that failure is a stepping-stone to success.

So don’t let it bother you. Or rather, please don’t worry yourself over it.
