Valentine's Day is getting really close, huh...

I barely remember what it was like in '59. I guess those memories weren't very important. What's normal for Valentine's these days?

[Other than stuffing his face with ice cream because the people he wants to spend it with don't exist. That's already part of his plan.]

This is probably the best time to go looking then, right?

I guess... I'm not sure how to go about it, though.

Don't have any special someones in mind?

...Just one person I'd rather forget.

I see.

Would you be opposed to a blind date sort of thing? If there's enough interest, maybe I can set something up.

...I guess it couldn't hurt.

Um... wait, what's a blind date?

It's when a third party sets two random people up on a date. You don't know who it is until you meet.

Oh. Then... yeah. That sounds swell, actually.

Great! I'll have to ask some of the other faculty to make sure it's alright to set something up, then.

Maybe you'll find a special someone, hm?

Well.. I hope so.

Just don't dwell on it too much. If this opportunity doesn't work out, maybe the next one will.

I won't.

[Pause.]

I'm used to things not working out.

That's a shame. Let's try and turn that around.

I'd like that.

...By the way, I don't think I know your name. I'm Jack.

I'm Ceireia. It's nice to meet you, Jack.

Sey.... re..... uh.

Do you have a nickname.

[She finds that mildly amusing. Her name is somewhat odd.]

I don't have a nickname that I'm aware of.

How about... Cei?

Say what?~

[She's clearly teasing.]

Cei? It's short for.. you... get it.

[It takes him a moment, but he realized she's joking.]

Anyway, it's.. easier to say.

I know, I'm fine with it.

O-okay, good!

[Sweats.]

Don't worry about it.
