Oh, I guess it's about the same for me.

[She groans.]

I missed the bus because the doors wouldn't let me out. And my toaster tried to fire toast at me. So I had to clean up that mess. I don't even want to get into what happened with Minako-chan's hair straightener.

An ordinary day here, I guess. Something goes wrong...

Gee... That sounds even rougher. I just had to worry about a tie kidnapping...

[But something in what she says is familiar to him, and he pauses as he recognizes it.]

Wait. Did you say "Minako'?

Um. Yes? Minako Aino? Why?

[Because huh?]

[Oh no, if I'm misremembering, I'm just going to bring up a bad memory... but there's no turning back now.]/small>

I'm sorry, I thought that... Was that the name of the person you saw back in the snow? [He only remembers hearing the name mentioned once, but it stuck with him with all the weirdness of that evening.]

That is. That's the same person. Only...she's not anything mysterious. And she's been here for a few weeks.

[Rei definitely seems pleased by that.]

Is your...um...snow-ghost here yet?

Huh. [He smiles warmly.] I'm really glad that she's here with you, Rei.

And... [He nods, still with warmth.] Yeah. Mia got here not too long ago too. I guess that the real Christmas miracles came late.

[She nods back.] I guess they did. I'm glad your teacher's here as well. [A beat.] Is her...timeline the same as yours?

Well... It doesn't really match up exactly. [This is awkward. I trust Rei, but I don't think that anyone should know that Mia's... not alive... unless she wants it that way.]

But she's from the last time I remember seeing here at least.

Fair enough. I suppose that might make things easier. I know...some friends of mine don't exactly line up with their others and it's awkward.

[Minako at least is from the same point.]

When do I get to meet her, hmm?

There's some awkwardness, but it works out. It's really good just to see each other again.

[He scratches at his head uncertainly.]

I'll have to ask her about that. Maybe when things are a little... actually, make that a lot less crazy around here.
