Yeah. Just a bit more to go, and then the presentation. After that, it'll be over.

[For good. For real? It's hard to get a gauge on the other when it comes to this. He's reclusive and shy, even with their agreement. Even still, Kazuya nods all the same.]

I'll be sure to get you home on time, so you don't have to worry about anything.

[He knows he can't keep Basil for overly long at his house. The other has a lot of things he has to do back home. He takes care of his grandmother, doesn't he? At least in part.]

( It'll be over...

And that'll be that. Basil and Kazuya can resume their lives as usual. )

O... Okay... Thank you.

( It's important for him to get home on time. His Grandma hasn't been doing well for a while. )

It's been really easy to work on this with you.

( Kazuya is agreeable and easy to get along with. It's no wonder that he's so popular... And, the time they've worked together feels like no time at all, despite how shy Basil initially was about it all. )

Glad to hear that. I try to make sure to completely assignments in an orderly manner.

[The assignments here are pretty different from what he's used to, though. Even the school year itself. It's been a lot to adjust to, but he thinks he's been managing well.

He ducks his head politely.]

It's been a pleasure to work with you too. You've taught me a lot, while I've been here, and your explanations of things I didn't understand were easy to absorb.
