No, not at all! I actually don't study all that much...

[ ... it's kind of sad to admit but it's true. he's an art student. there's less studying and more projects tbh ]

But it's good to hear that you take your studies really seriously? I mean, exams are coming up so that's good! You must be ready for them.

You don't?! Oh! You must spend hours working on your art projects then! That's still something you put a lot of effort in!

[But he smiles and laughs, looking confident about his own academic progress.]

I'm indeed ready for them. Those that prepare in advance are far more likely to do well! It's never good to study at the last minute! And now that I'm in college, it's even more important to continue the same methods that allowed me to score well in high school!

[ where does ishida get all this energy from... all this yelling and everything. naegi is a tad bit jealous because he's just kind of tired all the time from working 193819 jobs so he doesn't live on the streets ]

That's good, but remember to take breaks in between as well! It won't help if you overwork yourself, so make sure you pace yourself and rest with things you enjoy doing like watching TV shows or reading.

[ for naegi... watching tv shows = watching anime, reading = reading manga ]

Do not worry, Professor! I've been pacing myself-- I don't study all the time! In between homework and studying, I volunteer and exercise! A healthy mind needs a healthy body after all!

[That's not relaxing, Ishida.]

It's why I don't watch much television! Although, my roommate is very much interested in anime, so I sometimes hear quotes from it! It all seems nonsensical at times!

[ ................ really, where does ishida get all this energy??? ]

Yeah, some animes are like that... but some things might not make sense out of context. What did you hear?

Such as 'Don't believe in yourself! Believe in the me who believes in you!'

[Ishida folds his arms, suddenly looking serious.]

That sounds like terrible advice! You should always believe in yourself before taking on any task! A lack of confidence shows a lack of dedication!!

That's true, but some people just don't have a high level of self-confidence to do what they want to do. They sometimes just need an extra push from their friends and the people around them.

[ naegi kind of knows that himself... but also from some of his friends ]

I actually really like the anime that you're referring to. It's pretty good! And it has a main character who has to learn to stand up for himself and be stronger. You might enjoy it.

[Huh? Could it be... Professor Naegi really likes anime too?! Well, Ishida supposes that's not a big deal. He respects Byakuya still and he definitely isn't going to think any less of his upperclassman because of this! Naegi has been a great role model thus far!]

...If you truly recommend that anime to me, I'll give it a chance. If it's important to you, then I'm certain it must be worth watching!

[It's like if Naegi is showing a part of himself to Ishida! Or something. ~~It's just anime~~]

Yeah, give it a try! I have the entire series on my laptop so we should watch it together sometime.

[ anime is still important, okay, and they can bond over it. ]

It definitely has some weird lines that sound out of context, though, like bearing your bodies so your soul is bare as well, though...

[Baring their bodies...?

For a moment, Ishida seems to zone out as a memory flashes through his mind, hearing his own voice say a few things that he never would utter to anyone.]

B-bare our bodies to each other?!

[His voice is somewhat higher than normal, an expression of embarrassment and horror crossing his face as he looks at Naegi. T-they knew each other?! Were they classmates?! But more than that...

WAS HE SOME SORT OF PERVERT... JUST ASKING NAEGI TO STRIP DOWN IN THAT MEMORY.]

[ give naegi a min before he remembers this too. he’s going to be a bit delayed on this ]

Huh? W-What’s wrong, Kiyotaka?

N-NOTHING!!

[Except for the fact that Ishida seems completely mortified still, unable to look Naegi in the eye. Oh gosh, what if he was some sort of pervert in his past life?! The SHSL Pervert?! That would explain why he was so happy and enthusiastic about asking Naegi to bare his body with him!

WHAT IF NAEGI REMEMBERS THIS TOO...

Uncharacteristically, Ishida looks ready to bolt.]

Hahahaha, just remembered something, that's all!

Oh, is that s—

[ and now it’s naegi’s turn to remember that terrible memory, suddenly spacing out just like ishida did and once he comes out of it, there is... a very shocked expression on his face ]

H... Huh?! I just remembered something too! You were in it and—

[ he cuts himself off because uhhHHHHHH ]

[YELLS.

That look. Don't tell him...

WHY..........]

P-Professor Naegi, did you...

[He can't bring himself to finish the rest of that thought.]

You...

[ JUST THIS LOOK, JUST THIS LOOK!!! ]

You told me to... take off my...

[ he can't finish it ]

[U-UWAH he's never gotten that look by someone, at least not by Naegi!! Ishida cringes really hard and bows deeply, suddenly talking a lot quicker and stumbling over his words.]

P-please believe me when I say that I don't want you to bear your body to me! I-I assure you that I do not have any sort of feelings to see you naked like that!! You look fine perfectly clothed!!

More than fine, hahahaha!

[why did he say that.

WHY DOES EVERYTHING SOUND SO BAD STILL...]

[ ISHIDA, YOU ARE NOT MAKING THIS ANY BETTER ]

Ah, uh, thank you? [ how does naegi even respond to that like ?!?!?! ] B-But it's okay, Kiyotaka! It's not like the you now said it or anything! The people in the memories can be different from who we are now.

[He straightens up from his bow, but he's only getting increasingly upset by everything.]

But I'm still a pervert in my past life! [THIS IS HORRIBLE. What if people continue to get memories of him being a total sleazeball to others?! It may not be him now, but it's still bad!]

Naegi!! What if I am the SHSL Pervert?! Would that mean I would suddenly get weird items from Retrospec?!?!

[HE DOESN'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT...]

[ holy shit naegi doesn’t want to think of ishida getting perverted stuff in the mail THAT IS TERRIBLE ]

N-No, I think you’ll be okay! If we were in the same class then you’ll be fine! I didn’t see a title for SHSL Pervert when I checked online in one of my memories so you couldn’t possibly have been that!

[ ... ah, but then he remembered something wrong with that reassurance and it probably shows on his face as he pauses ]

R-really?!

[For a moment, he looks hopeful. Maybe he's not actually the SHSL Pervert or anything strange like that! Although, the expression on Naegi's face isn't too reassuring...]

Did that website have everyone's titles?!
