Is this seat taken?

No.

My name's Renko Usami.

What's yours?

Maribel Hearn.

Marry... Meh... Huh?

I guess people in this country have problems pronouncing it right.

Hmmm.

What're you reading?

Oh, this?

↓That

*fwip*

It's a book on relativistic psychology.

Relativistic psychology? That's your major?

That's right.

So that means...

Dreams and reality are the same...

that kinda stuff?

I don't really like that kinda thing...

Relative, philosophical stuff turns me off.

Is that so?

Oh, a nice and believable objective view? That's so old-fashioned.

Like, "This coffee is so delicious!" Isn't that so clear-cut?

Is there such thing as an objective view besides one's self?

Hey, look, that's--

The exact same thing.

It's not entirely wrong to say that reality is subjective, you know.

...Even in an age where a normal person can go to the moon?

Because one can go to the moon in this day and age.

In fact, because science has taught us so much in this day and age

people can't really believe there are no rabbits on the moon, can they?

...Well, since nobody's seen any, you can't objectively say--

I can see them.

Well.

I'm glad we got to talk.

Huh?

Wait,

I'm not-

I hope we'll meet again,

Miss Usami.

It's just so crowded at this time of day...

Still, the cafes on campus are so convenient.
