[Blue Archive] Seia Can Speak Too!!

When you're down, chocolate is the best! - 7

Seia lay in bed. She felt a little down because her precognitive dream had been cut short.

But since that was Seia's daily life, Seia lay in bed.

Things would be different if it were soon her turn to host the tea party, but it wasn't, at least not now.

"Haaah..."

Streeetch-!

Seia, with nothing to do, yawned and stretched her body.

It was quite adorable, enough to make a third party laugh, but unfortunately, there was no one to watch this scene with her.

Of course, there were no people, but there were living creatures.

"Chirp chirp-!"

A white bird that had flown into Seia's room through the window at some point was watching Seia stretch.

"...?!"
'Wha, when did it get here?!'

Seia, who had shown a rather embarrassing sight, blushed, and though one might have wanted to capture the moment in a photo, sadly, there was no one to tease her.

"Chirp chirp-!"

"..."

Seia stared at the white bird's face for a moment, then got up from bed and walked towards it.

"Chirp?"

'Hello!'

Wave wave-

Seia waved her hand at the bird. Did she think the bird would understand her words?

"Chirp chirp-!"

"...!"
'Did it respond to my greeting?!'

Whether by coincidence or not, the white bird answered Seia's greeting.

"...!!"
'Can you understand me, by any chance?'

Seia looked at the white bird with a face full of anticipation as she exclaimed.

Sparkle sparkle-!

Seia's eyes sparkled as she spoke, but unfortunately, the white bird tilted its head, perhaps unable to understand her words.

"..."
'Ugh... Of course not... I didn't even say it out loud...'

Droop-

The white bird gazed at Seia, who was noticeably drooping, and then landed on her head as if to console her.

"...?!"

"Chirp-!"

'Whoa?! Are you comforting me?!'

The bird still had the look of not understanding Seia's words. But Seia felt like she had made a little friend.

"...!"
'Okay! Your name is Chirp Chirp from now on!'

Seia, with a bright expression, said so and stroked the white bird on her head.

Why the name Chirp Chirp... she didn't know...

* * *

Having gained a new friend, I immediately set off to show Chirp Chirp off to Nagisa.

Of course, she's one of my few friends, so I had to introduce them right away!

"Um, Seia-san...?"

Nod nod-

"Is it a pet this time...?"

As expected, Nagisa's reaction was typical. Should I send this little guy away?

At that thought, I instantly became dejected.

"...No. I don't think there's any need to chase it away. It's small, too."

"...!"
'Wow! Really?!'

Seeing me with a face like a child who had just received permission to keep a pet, Nagisa momentarily couldn't hold back a laugh, but it should be fine!

"Ahaha☆ Seia-chan! Nagi-chan! You were both here!"

"Mika-san? Is something the matter?"

"Do we need something to be the matter to look for each other? Hmm... I might be a little sad~ We've been together for years..."

"..."

Mika, who appeared suddenly, threw a casual jab at Nagisa as usual and then got to the point.

"Ta-da☆ Seia-chan! Nagi-chan! Have you both seen this? Our correspondent contacted us saying that someone called 'Sensei' has arrived!"

"..."
'I already told them I saw that in my precognitive dream...'

I looked at Mika with such an expression, but she didn't seem to understand my look.

"Sensei? I did hear that the General Student Council has been unusually busy lately..."

"..."
'Na, Nagisa-chan doesn't remember my story either...!'

I worked so hard to tell them about it...!

As the image of me trying to convey the story by shaking my whole body flashed through my mind, I instantly felt upset.

To put it simply, I was sulking.

"That's not what I mean! Seia-chan! You agree with me, right, Seia-chan?"

"..."
'I'm sulking, so don't talk to me!'

Whisk-!

Thinking that, I turned my head away sharply, and soon, Mika and Nagisa's bewildered reactions came.

"Se, Seia-chan?!"

"...Seia-san?"

'It's no good even if you call me. I went through so much trouble to tell you about that.'

"Wh, what did we do wrong to Seia-chan?!"

"Uh, oh...? Something big seems to have happened..."

Mika and Nagisa, who had entered a state of emergency in an instant, began to devise a plan to appease the sulking me.

"How about we do the aegyo Seia-chan did last time back to her?"

"Wouldn't Seia-chan hate it, saying it's her dark history...?"

"Ugh... Then, Mika-san, do you have any ideas?"

"Of course☆ Listen, Nagi-chan? It's easier to cheer up a sulking Seia-chan than to find out why she's sulking!"

Mika's words didn't seem to make sense, but they had a point. Nagisa decided to listen to Mika for now.

"Seia-chan is a cuter and simpler girl than you think...!"

"Then...?"

Mika took out a small, square object from her pocket.

"In times like these, chocolate is the best food!"

"...!"
'There's no way something like chocolate can cheer me up...'

While I was thinking that, Mika forcibly shoved a piece of chocolate into my mouth.

Pop-

"...?!"

"How is it, Seia-chan? Do you like it? This is a very expensive chocolate☆"

"..."
'It's, it's delicious...'

There's no way it could... it shouldn't...

'It's delicious...'

... I was defeated by a single piece of chocolate.
