The first time I saw the elves, I thought:

First, I felt inferior to my sister.

Then I felt inferior to my school's top students.

Then I felt inferior to basically asians.

Now I get to feel inferior to an entire species.

Haha... ha. No, it's not funny.


The first time I saw a mermaid, I almost lost my breath.

The remaining air bubbles almost went away.

But then I saw my runaway flip-flop in his hands.

I am forever thankful.


The first time I saw the curriculum, I thought:

So.. elves, demons, and vampires have pointed ears? And a random genetic mutation can also give humans pointed ears...

So what's the f*cking point? Useless identification.


The first time I left to explore, I experienced bad luck.

In a world ignorant of magic, bird sh*t drops in your head.

In a magical world, a Phoenix flying overhead sheds a feather and your head's eternally on fire.

I already tried shaving my head, it didn't work. Only a bunch of seals work, but I can't lose control of my emotions.


The first time I met a were-whatever, it broke my trumpet.

That isn't cheap...

I was originally a flute musician anyways...


The first time I met a dragon, I was getting some bamboo for my flute.

Haha, so even a lung dragon breathes fire.

At least this one goes out, albeit with much difficulty.


The first time I met a super-powered human, I fought with him for the arm-rest.

It was high school orientation in the auditorium.

Even after realizing who he was...

Hehe, no guilt.


The first time I met my roommate, I was dancing around with only a skirt trying to avoid a spider.

Don't ask! Nobody ask!
