Summary

This stand-along story depicts the friendship between Fujino, a confident storyteller with a comic strip in her school newspaper, and Kyomoto, a truant classmate who never leaves her house, but whose drawing abilities far outpace Fujino's. When they finally meet and decide to collaborate, they find great success. But Kyomoto remains quiet, focused on the beauty of landscapes and backgrounds, and eventually deciding to pursue art school rather than work in the manga industry alongside Fujino. When tragedy strikes Kyomoto's art school, Fujino reflects on their relationship and what might have been different in a misty, supernatural moment
