    Summary

    But if there are things she absolutely hates--it's invading her privacy, trampling her pride, and keeping her in the dark.

    Unfortunately, the situation presented before her happens to be a perfect blend of exactly that.

    "I'm getting a what?!"

    The dorm manager winces, but at least has the decency to repeat, "A roommate, yes."

    OR

    Sandrone is used to being alone, and has done everything to keep it that way. Things get a whole lot worse (better, better, better) when Columbina arrives.

    OR OR

    Summary

    On her way home after school, Sandrone runs into a strange girl wandering beneath the winter rain, dressed in nothing but her nightgown, singing to herself.
    It turns out to be the start of a very unlikely relationship.

    [“Right, I won’t make you go home if you don’t want to,” Sandrone grumbles, shivering. “But you are coming with me before you succumb to hypothermia.”
    The girl blinks, bemused.
    “Is this… kidnapping?”
    “Hah?!” Sandrone exclaims, “Why would anyone want to kidnap you?”
    The girl opens her mouth as if to answer, and Sandrone quickly cuts her off.
    “Don’t say anything. Come with me, stay out here and freeze, it doesn’t matter to me either way. Do whatever you like.”
    With that, she turns on her heel and walks away, stuffing her hands into her skirt pockets in an attempt to keep them warm. The girl stares at her with wide eyes, her mouth open but no words coming out, one small, pale hand clutching the front of Sandrone’s coat.
    A few moments later, she is back under Sandrone’s umbrella, humming another song to herself as she links their arms together.
    Flinching, she hisses, “What do you think you’re doing?”
    “Whatever I like,” the girl replies, nonchalant.]

    Summary

    Albedo discovers an old drawing of his in a stack of papers – one he’d completely forgotten about.

    He recognizes who it is immediately. The alarming part, however, is that he can’t seem to figure out how that could be possible.

    Summary

    “—But, I haven’t been home in a long time,” says the child.

    Columbina glances over her shoulder, downward, and senses his presence tainting the crisp frost that hangs heavy in the air around them. He seems to have been trailing after her for a while now.

    She kneels, and regards him more carefully now.

    “Oh,” she says gently. “I haven’t, either.”

    Columbina chances upon Segment 8 in the hallways one day.
