Narrator:A few days later, I visited the library to check out a book for school. I was about to head out, when I saw a book that got my attention.

*I head into the manga section*

Oreo(mind):Now that I think of it, I've never actually read a paperback copy of a manga before.

*I spot a book in the section that looks interesting*

Oreo(mind):Oh, isn't this manga getting an anime adaptation soon? I think I'll get this book to see what it's really all about.

*I grab the manga, and check out of the library*

Oreo:"Alright, I think I'll start reading this when I get home."

*The stone starts glowing, and Murakumo appears before me*

Oreo:"!...Oh, what's up, Murakumo?"

Murakumo:"That book, is that a-"

Oreo:"Yep, it's a manga. You know, if you want to read your work, I could."

Murakumo:"It's fine, I shouldn't ask that much from you."

Oreo:"It's fine, really. For some reason, I've been reading more manga than watching anime."

Murakumo:"Is that so?"

Oreo:"Yeah, I'd love to look at what you bring into the manga world."

Murakumo:"W-Well, I am pretty confident in my manga skills...alright, you've got yourself a deal."

Oreo:"Thanks, I look forward to working with you."

Murakumo:"R-Right."

*Murakumo walks with me back home, and I start reading the manga I got, while Murakumo starts working on her manga*

Oreo(mind):Her expertises in manga are probably the only thing about herself that she shows confidence in. I have to make sure I don't crush her dreams.

Oreo:"!...Oh, by the way, what are you making your manga about?"

Murakumo:"?...Well, I'm thinking of making it an action manga."

Oreo:"Action, huh...I bet that's gonna be hard to draw."

Murakumo:"Not really, I can finish it by the end of the week."

Oreo:"That fast?!"

Murakumo:"I've been working on this for a while now, so I wouldn't say I'm working very fast. I'm just missing something."

Oreo:"What are you missing?"

Murakumo:"W-Well...I just don't really know how to portray what I'm drawing."

Oreo:"Huh...that can be a hard task."

Murakumo:"Well, the subject is something rather simple."

Oreo:"Ok, what is it?"

Oreo(mind):It's gonna be something related to me...

Murakumo:"...L-Love."

Oreo:"!...Love, huh..."

Oreo(mind):I wasn't wrong.

Murakumo:"I-It's hard for me to portray something like that if I've never experienced it before."

Oreo:"Got it, so you're looking for someone that can help you experience love, then you will be able to get that part done."

Murakumo:"Yes, but it has to be something similar to a knight and a princess."

Oreo:"So basically medival romance, hmm..."

Oreo(mind):I could have it so that the next time someone tries to attack me on the streets, I'll get Murakumo to save me.
