The Beach
 |
This is amazing. I'm seeing a whole flood of comments on the Magicam post saying they ordered the juice. |
 |
Oh...! |
FLASHBACK START
Pomefiore Dorm - Ballroom
 |
You speak of being "charming" and being "strong" as though the two are mutually exclusive… ...when in fact both of them are equally valid forms of power. As long as you fail to make that distinction, you will never be a match for me. |
FLASHBACK END
|
Is this the power of beauty Vil was talkin' about?! |
|
Now that you mention it... The only reason this worked at all was because Vil was so focused on that. Magical might or brute strength alone never would've accomplished that. |
|
Ah wonder... Ahem. I mean, I wonder: was this the point Vil was tryin' to make about power? That my "charm" is a power only I have, and I should weaponize it? |
|
Maybe. Neither of us are super smart or buff. But I bet nobody in this school has you beat in the cuteness department! |
|
Erk... Not sure how I should feel about that. But it's true that I'm not gonna look this way forever. Just think—this time next year, I might be taller, or more muscular. Or I could have a mustache! |
|
I dunno about that one, buddy. |
|
Vil says my charm is my power. If I can put that power to good use in this year's SDC... Maybe I could give the town a way bigger boost than just sellin' a bunch of juice crates. |
|
Yeah. If there's power to be found in the things we've spent our whole lives being ashamed of... Then let's play to our strengths and prove we can break out of our shells! If that's what it takes to beat our rivals, then who am I to say no? I'll double down! |
|
Heh heh... Yeah, I hear ya! |
|
Epel, you know what I think we should do? We should win this year's SDC and prove ourselves to Ace and Vil! |
|
That's what Ah'm talkin' about! Ah'll be cute an' powerful as kin be! |
|
| Aha ha! |
??? |
Hoo-wee! Look at this tricked-out blastcycle! |
