...
And so, Aris, now speaking in a diferently yet equally as odd way, lets me into the club room.
"What did you call me a second ago?" I ask.
"The Legendary Warrior! Momoi and Midori told me how you fought those robots before meeting me." Aris explains.
"Well... I suppose that makes sense."
The only other person inside is Midori, who begins to stir as I close the door. Oh wait, Yuzu's over on the other side. The green twin lets out a groan as she moves onto her back, before snapping upright as the sunlight peeking through the windows hits her eyes. "Morning already?! Oh, no! I have to get ready for school!"
Our resident robotic girl sneaks up to Midori quietly. Grinning, I find an opportunity as I sneak up too. "Hey, you. You're finally awake."
"Wha?! Sensei?" Midori asks, surprised to see me.
"You've finally opened your eyes... Thank goodness. Aris was not sure you were ever going to wake up." Aris says, sounding like she's quoting a game just like I did.
Midori looks at the robot girl in pure confusion. "Wait, Aris! You can speak normally now!" She cheers, upon realizing.
"Mostly." I mutter.
"Indeed, mortal. Gaze upon me and know it to be true." Aris says with a bright smile.
The green twin awkwardly chuckles at Aris' word choice. "I-I guess there's still room for improvement."
"Nah, this is fine." I say.
"Um. Good morning, everyone." Yuzu says quietly as she stands up.
"Mornin'." I say with a wave.
The door then opens, revealing a cheerful Momoi. "Good morning!"
"Mornin'." I repeat.
"Here ya go, Aris." The pink twin says, handing Aris a student ID, clipped to a lanyard.
Aris looks at it in curiosity, before smiling. "Stange item obtained!"
"Wow! You're getting so good at talking now. This is a student ID." The pink twin explains.
"Maybe it's actually kind of cool that she talks like she's in a retro game..." Midori says, thoughtfully.
"A student ID?" Our robotic pal asks.
"You need a student ID to prove you go to our school. Veritas hacked, I mean, registered you in the academy list, so you're one of us now!" Momoi explains.
"One of you? As in, Aris is an ally?" Aris asks, before smiling. "Bum bum bum! Aris has joined the party!"
"I-Is this really gonna work?" Midori asks, worried.
"Of course! We've already got the uniform and student ID! It's fiiiine..." Momoi says, drawling out the last word. "Next order of business is... a weapon." She says, pausing for dramatic effect, then turning to Aris. "All right, Aris. We've got some things to show you."
"By that you mean...?" Aris asks.
"Like a grand tour of the Millennium School!" The pink twin says, happily. "All students in Millennium, or well, Kivotos have their own personal weapons. So, you'll need one too, Aris." She explains. "And there's only one place that'll get you what you need on short notice. The Engineering Club."
"That is a new word. 'En... gineer... ing'?" Aris asks.
"Basically, they make and repair machines." I explain.
