Leo: ♪~♪~♪
…Huh? There’s a snowman over there! Mm~ I don’t remember this being here the last time I came by.
Okay, then let’s guess! I’ll fill in all the missing information with my imagination, no worries! Wahaha, it’s come, it’s come – inspiration!
It looks like this snowman wasn’t made too long ago. But lately, there hasn’t been much snow, and the weather’s been really good. It’s starting to melt.
Mm? This guy’s got a scarf around him! Who did that? Maybe a kind fairy came by and couldn’t bear seeing him like this, so they gave him a scarf?
But… it’s also common belief that fairies love mischief, yeah~? Gotta keep the characterization right.
If we start diverging from the image we want, it’ll become something completely different, after all.
But anyhow, my thirst for creation has showed itself! No matter the tale, I’ll tell it however I please! I’ll weave together a masterpiece with these two hands of mine…☆
Ahh, a tragic conclusion! Where’s my bag?! I had a notepad in it and everything~! My masterpiece is gonna disappear!
What a waste, a waste! If it disappears, it’s a loss to the world! There’s only snow here, so I have no choice but to use it!
Nghh~ it’s weirdly dirty but I guess it’ll do. They said this year would have record snowfall, but… liars! I don’t trust weather reports anymore!
Mitsuru: Dash, dash~! Ahaha, it feels good to run! The snow is white, the entire world is pure white~♪
Huh? It’s Leo-chan-senpai! What’re you doing sitting here? Your butt’s gonna get cold. You’ll get sick, y’know?
Leo: Ah, you came here just at the right time! D’you have somethin’ to write on? It doesn’t have to be a notebook, anything’s good!
Just when I really started wanting to compose, I don’t have my notepad on me. But I do have a marker in my pocket for some reason~
Worst case scenario, I can write on my uniform, I guess.
Mitsuru: Huh? You can’t doodle on your uniform! Your mom’s gonna get mad. I always get scolded if I come back with a dirty uniform, so I’m warning you too!
Hey, hey, Leo-chan-senpai. Did ya make this snowman? There’s eyes and a nose and everything. It’s like a real bonafide snowman!
I wanna make one too! Leo-chan-senpai, let’s make one together~☆
Leo: Wah, don’t pull so hard! You’re like a little puppy~
Okay, I like you! Ten… Tenba? No, it’s like Pegasus, but a different kanji! [1]
Ten… Tenma! Yup, you’re Mitsuru Tenma, right?!
Mitsuru: That’s me. I was gettin’ sad you might’ve forgot my name, Leo-chan-senpai.
Leo: Listen, it’s actually a miracle for me to remember someone’s full name after only seeing them a few times, you know?
I like the sound of Mittsu more than Mitsuru though~ Can I call you Mittsu?
Mitsuru: Sure. It makes it sound like we’re friends, so… yup, I like it.♪
Leo-chan-senpai, I’m gonna make the head, so you make the body, okay?
I’m gonna make a super cool snowman like the one you made~♪
Leo: Wait, wait, I think you’re misunderstanding something. I didn’t make that snowman, alright?
I dunno who actually made it~ But since it’s here, it was probably a student?
Maybe there’s a name on the scarf…
Kuaah, don’t ruin my imagination! I didn’t wanna hear something so realistic!
Mitsuru: Wha—I didn’t say anything! You were the one talking~!
Mm~ nope! There’s no name on that scarf.
Maybe we could find out who did it if we ask around, but it’s winter break right now. Most of the students aren’t here, y’know~
Leo: What?! It’s winter break?! So that’s why I haven’t seen anyone!
Okay, I see! Then why am I here if it’s winter break?
Mitsuru: I wouldn’t know. Did ya have Knights practice or something?
Leo: Mm, no, I don’t think so. I can’t remember why I came here, but if there really is practice, my phone would be going off right now~
Oh, but I left my bag somewhere, so it might actually be going off.
Should I file a lost item report with the police or something?
Mitsuru: Bag? Ah, I think I know! There was one by the school gate, so I was runnin’ to go turn it in!
So this was your bag, Leo-chan-senpai~ I’m glad I found the owner!
It’s a real important item, so be careful not to lose it next time!
Leo: Wahaha, lecturing a grown-up, are you? But I’m used to making people mad, anyway~ I’m reminded of Suo~ somehow.
Mitsuru: Ahh, you mean Tsukasa-chan? Tsukasa-chan talks about Leo-chan-senpai a lot. I’m glad you’re gettin’ along.♪
Anyway, Leo-chan-senpai, let’s make a snowman!
There’s not much snow over here, but there’s a lot on the field. I’ll go run and get some~!
Leo: Alright, if we’re gonna make one, let’s make one no one’s ever seen before!
I’ll put off composing until then…♪
