Maid: "Miss Wisteria it's time to get up."
Maid: "..."
Maid: "Your fath...er..."
Wisteria: "I'll go get ready."
Maid: "S-see you later then, miss Wisteria."
Dahlia: "How long is she going to take!"
Dahlia: "It's been hours!"
Inoxia: "Dahlia, just be patient once in awhile."
Inoxia: "It wouldn't hurt."
Dahlia: "NO!"
Wisteria: "What's going on? Why are you shouting?"
Dahlia: "Inoxia is being mean!"
Inoxia: "This is stupid..."
Wisteria: "Okay then... Why are we here?"
Dahlia: "It'll be better to show."
Inoxia: "..."
Inoxia: "Pftt!"
Inoxia: "Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha."
Inoxia: "What just happened?"
I would say that is a fair question.
Wisteria: "Dahlia, could you tell me what's going on?"
Dahlia: "We're already here so there's no point."
Wisteria: "That makes... Sense..."
Wisteria: "Still I'd like to know."
Wisteria: "Dahlia!"
"Really..."
Inoxia: "Wisteria."
Inoxia: "Where is Dahlia?"
Wisteria: "She ran off just now."
Inoxia: "That's expected, I don't know why I asked. But..."
Inoxia: "Wisteria... Have you been reading the news?"
Wisteria: "What! There's no point besides news is boring!"
Wisteria: "Why?"
This was initially a nod to lore in this world, as this was the origins of the SweetSour death system, and I wanted to end it off more optimistically and I do still agree with Nox haha. I don't believe we exist for any reason, we have no reason for our existence, and in the end we are insignificant and our lives are a string of coincidences but I don't think that matters. We can find our own meanings and our own joys. I don't see how the lack of significance and purpose of our lives and our world, in any way takes away from that. Also I used to have the mega mega hots for Nox haha. He was a big crush of mine, he was also a lot of what I wanted to be, cool, mysterious, quiet, and a reader. Things I weren't and aren't (I'm cool tho.)
I am sad to say, Alice and Dottie used to be cops. I hate it, but maybe Verledis isn't corrupt. Who knows.
That's the end of Chapter 1! So here's the extra art I made. :-3 I think they're really cute so I like them. Also the new years one was not on new years I don't think. It was an in universe thing, if I recall.
