[Issei looks... tired, mostly.]

Does anyone here work as a therapist? I imagine if none of us have taken that position, then none of the locals will be able to provide advice on 'I was a normal high school student, and in the space of a month I've fought for my life, awakened a spirit from my mind to help keep my best friend from being stupid, and ended up as Alexander the Great's vassal by accident' without assuming that I'm completely insane.

I'm not saying that I'm not completely insane. I just would prefer if it wasn't assumed.

Help me, someone. Just someone, please understand why it's difficult to go from a life where my most troublesome task is getting the student council to do their work to this.

[She smiles softly, shaking her head ever-so-slightly.] Amazing? Nah, that's just home. Prospero's the place full of wonder. The sun moves, water falls from the sky, and all the things people have made in his era are just... wow.

But those are normal things... well, I suppose they wouldn't be, to you.

[Smile levels up! Smile has evolved to... Grin!]

Yep yep. It's all perspective~♪

Look at just about anything with the right mindset and it can become fantastic in nature.

I used to admire things in nature like the sunset and the way sight works, but it never occurred to me to view them as someone without them would have.

Oh, I dunno if you have to go that far. I was pretty enamored of the idea of people flying, so I kinda studied the principles behind how planes work a bit. Sure, a bit of the magic is gone, but it's replaced by respect for human ingenuity.

Just knowing how something works shouldn't relegate it to mundanity, I guess. Heck, sometimes the "how" just makes it all that more impressive.

That's a good point. I should have respect for the beauty even in things I believe I understand.

I've gotta admit; sometimes I envy kids, they seem to have such an easy time seeing something fantastic in whatever they look at.

The joy of innocence, or something like that.
