[There really isn't, is there? Shun slowly falling apart over it, isn't really worth talking about, really. Anyway.]

That friend was Shiunin Sora.

[Just mentioning that in case Sakaki left it out in some ill-thought attempt to keep peace or something.

The brat is gone now, isn't a threat (and wouldn't be much of one, even if he was still around), but the fact that CERES has considered one of Academia suitable for their cause once already is definitely relevant. Being stuck here doesn't make Academia any less an enemy.]

I don't now what Sakaki told you, but as things stand those Flamines are likely a farce. It's been over a month and I've yet to see a hair of them. CERES claims that they want us to fight, but up to now they've neither shared any of their intel nor offered opportunity to strike or any proof of their existence beyond their own word.

[Shun turns towards the edge of the roof, taking a step towards it as he lets his gaze drift across the city.]

This place is too quiet. It's not a battlefield.

[It makes Shun uneasy and restless, to be honest.]
