AF2 Arcana Academia: Liberta
Liberta: [Now that La Primavera is over, spring brings more new changes to Regalo]
Liberta: [Arcana Academia]
Liberta: [Sparked by the lord’s plan to turn the island into a center for learning, Arcana Famiglia aims to establish a school]
Liberta: [With a goal to promote learning among the citizens]
Liberta: [Today, everyone in the Family is once again busily fulfilling their young Donna’s wishes]
~*Scene: SS Arcana*~
Liberta: Ugh…it’s no use. I can’t think of anything
Dante: What are you here muttering about, Liberta?
Liberta: Dante…what do you think I’d be good at?
Dante: Are you still worrying about that?
Liberta: Because I still can’t think of anything. Ugh…what should I do?
Dante: Standing there being indecisive won’t help you. It’ll just fill your brain with worms
Liberta: Worms? Ugh…forget it. I don’t feel like thinking of a comeback. How do I think of something…
Dante: Hey! Didn’t I say to quit being indecisive? The harder you think, the less it’ll help
Dante: Just keep it simple. The answer will come to you much easier than you think
Liberta: Huh, it will?
Dante: It’ll just pop into your head!
(*bonk) Liberta: Ow!
~*Scene: Harbor*~
Liberta: Hah…or so he says, but…
Nova: It’s not like you to look so gloomy
Liberta: Uwah!? Nova… Hah…you sure have it nice
Nova: Huh? How so?
Liberta: That you figured out what you wanted to do so easily
Nova: I still don’t know what this is about. Care to explain?
Liberta: Haha, I sure do envy you…
Nova: Are you okay…? You really are acting weird
Liberta: I’m not okay! Damn it…
Nova: Hah… Just tell me. I’ll lend you a hand if I can
Liberta: Really!? Okay, you see…
~*Scene: Harbor*~
Liberta: So I can’t figure out what I’m supposed to do. Ugh…I haven’t written in my Liberta Memo either
Nova: It’s unusual for you to take something so seriously
Liberta: Ugh! I wish my brain would just give me an answer!
Ash: Hey, Chick Head, what’re you yelling about?
Felicita: What are you two doing?
Liberta: Oh, Ojou…
Nova: Oh, it’s you two. Great timing. We could use your help
Felicita: Help?
Nova: He could use some of your wisdom
~*Scene: Bar*~
Ash: You can’t decide what to do for the Academia…?
Nova: I guess it’s true that we’ve already found a teacher for your specialty
Liberta: Ugh…I’m so useless. At this rate I’ll be the only one with nothing to teach
Nova: Don’t be so pessimistic. You’ll figure it out eventually
Liberta: How long is eventually! I’ve been thinking about it for a while already!
Ash: Throwing a tantrum’s not going to help you
Liberta: I know. But…
Ash: Yeah, he’s beyond help
Nova: By the way, what did you decide on?
Felicita: Me? I…
>I’m not teaching anything
>I’ll do my best as a student
Liberta: You’re not? What do you mean?
Liberta: Huh…you’re going to be a student?
Felicita: I think there’s a lot you can only discover from being in the perspective of a student
Felicita: I’m sure they’ll have worries that they can’t confide in with a teacher. I want to be able to bring those opinions to light
Liberta: Stuff you can only see from a student’s perspective…
Felicita: …It might just be an excuse for not being able to teach though
Nova: That’s not true. It’s like everyone has to teach
Ash: Yeah. I think that’s a good approach too
>Was that any help?
>Did you come up with anything?
Liberta: Hmm. I guess your idea does work. Maybe I really was thinking too hard
Ash: Yeah, aren’t you more suited to being a student than forcing yourself to teach something?
Nova: I agree
Liberta: Yeah. I think I can now
Ash: I hope you’re not just saying that
Nova: Yeah. You should decide soon. We can’t hold your hand forever
Liberta: I think I understand now. It’s not like everyone has something they want to teach
Liberta: I just got stuck on the idea of teaching when I first heard about the Academia
Liberta: But after hearing Ojou out, it made me think what I’d want if I was a student
Liberta: Studying is fun…er, I actually don’t know that for sure…
Liberta: But I’m sure talking about stuff and making friends with people your age will be fun
Liberta: I think that’ll get people to try new things and share ideas with each other
Liberta: If someone says “I want to try something”, I want to be the one who says “Okay, go for it!”
Liberta: What if I could support people like that?
>I think it’s wonderful
>I like the way you think
Ash: Lots of people do give up before they even try
Nova: …Why are you looking at me while saying that?
Ash: Well you are that type, aren’t you, Nova?
Liberta: You’re right! He is
Nova: Huh!? No I’m not!
Liberta: …Y-you love!? M-me…?
Ash: She said your idea…not you
Nova: Yeah, your idea. Don’t get so excited
Liberta: I-It was just a small misunderstanding!
Felicita: Haha
Liberta: What is it, Ojou?
Felicita: It finally feels like you three are back to normal
Liberta: Back to normal?
Felicita: Oh, nothing
Description: In Academia, your choices determine if the scenario will end in love or a laugh
Love
~*Scene: Popolarita Street*~
Liberta: Thanks for today. My mind finally feels clear thanks to you
Felicita: It was nothing. I was the one who made you worry. I’m glad I could help
Liberta: Now that I’ve decided, I suddenly feel so excited!
Liberta: I hope we can try lots of new things when the Academia opens, Ojou!
Liberta: I’m sure there’s lots of fun things only we can do since we’ll be students
Felicita: What do you want to do as a student?
Liberta: Me? Well…
Liberta: Go on a date with you, and…
Felicita: Huh? Liberta…
Liberta: No, nothing!
Felicita: Your nose is bleeding…
Liberta: …Huh? Wah!? It is!
Felicita: …What were you thinking about?
Liberta: …About you. Going on a date with me…
Felicita: …Liberta. Okay, let’s take a break
Liberta: O-Okay
~*Scene: Field*~
Liberta: (H…How I end up lying in Ojou’s lap…!?)
Felicita: Are you okay? Did your nose stop bleeding?
Liberta: Huh!? Uh. Yeah, I think so…
Liberta: Wah…no, it’s still going
Felicita: Stop it and just stay still
Liberta: No, really, it’s okay!
Felicita: But…
Liberta: Actually…if I use your lap as a pillow any longer, it’ll never stop
Felicita: …You don’t like it?
Liberta: It’s not that! It really isn’t, but…
Felicita: I think I really do love you. So, um, you know…
Liberta: It’s too soon for us to be this close. I’m happy that you’re worried about me, but…
Felicita: Okay…
Liberta: Ahh, I don’t know how to say this!
Liberta: …Um, Ojou. Can you give me your hand?
Felicita: Huh…like this?
Liberta: Yeah! …I want to hold your hand
Felicita: Liberta…
Liberta: Hah…I really can’t handle being any closer right now
Liberta: Ugh, there’s no use avoiding this. Alright, fine!
Felicita: ?
Liberta: Ojou, can we hold hands all the way back to the mansion?
Felicita: Just to the mansion?
Liberta: Huh? Uh, well, we don’t have to let go if you don’t want to!
Liberta: …Wait, what am I saying!?
Felicita: Sure
Liberta: Huh!? Ojou?
Felicita: If that’s what you want, then let’s do it. It’d…make me happy too
Liberta: Oh…okay. Then, can I hold your hand a little longer?
Felicita: Sure. I want to too
Liberta: Hehe, I…want to stay like this with you too
Laugh
~*Scene: Bar*~
Luca: Looks like you’re all here
Pace: I thought something happened when you all came in here looking so serious
Debito: So that’s what Bambina was thinking. She sure is our Donna alright
Liberta: Huh! Debito, Pace, and even you, Luca!
Nova: How long have you three been there?
Pace: Long enough, you know?
Luca: We were here before you actually
Debito: Geez, you didn’t even notice? That’s why you always make us worry
Ash: If you knew we were here, why didn’t you say anything?
Pace: Huh? You were the ones looking so serious
Luca: We didn’t want to intrude on your chance to have a valuable discussion with each other
Liberta: You say that, but you were definitely having fun watching me have a hard time!
Debito: Well, obviously that’s fun to watch
Nova: You have terrible pastimes
Luca: You shouldn’t tease him too much, Debito
Pace: Weren’t you also having fun going “ah, that’s youth”?
Luca: Well…it just reminded me how my youth had bittersweet moments like that too
Liberta: Youth…? Luca, you’re acting like an old man
Luca: Huh!? A-an old man…?
Nova: Hey, you should watch yourself. Luca’s 30 now. Which means he’s a tried and true…
Ash: Old man, right?
Luca: How can you say that!?
Liberta: Oh, you’re right. Sorry Luca, I shouldn’t have let out the “like”
Luca: That’s not what you should apologize about… It just makes it hurt more
Liberta: I always forget since you look young, but you really are an old man!
Luca: Again with the “old man”…
Pace: Cheer up, Luca-chan! He could say so much worse!
Luca: Haha…ha. It’s alright, Pace. This isn’t enough to discourage me!
Liberta: Hm? Wait, isn’t Luca the number one old man in the Family now?
(*shock) Luca: Huh…!?
Liberta: Dante’s young now, and Jolly’s uh…we don’t know how old he is
Pace: Oh, that one did it. He hit Luca-chan right where it hurts!
Debito: Hey now, Liberta. Let’s stop there. You’re gonna make Luca-chan cry
Luca: Ahh…this is just too much. You don’t have to go that far…
Liberta: Huh, did I say something weird?
Ash: He said that without meaning any ill will?
Nova: Yeah. It’s just who he is
(*sigh…) Debito: Doesn’t look like Luca’s recovering any time soon
Liberta: ?
