[To Sanae and Collette ]

I suppose it's almost irony that not a day after the announcement to close the school had been made, I received a letter detailing a request for my attendance at the Vaganova school in Russia, not just as an exchange student, but as an assistant instructor. Furthermore, I have been told that I have the authority to grant three full-ride

To... TO RUSSIA?!

[Not emotionally broken right now, promise.]

[sword_and_shoes]

That's correct. Transportation, lodging, and food are provided by the school until you get situated in the student housing. Thereafter, it's standard fare, room and board also being covered by that scholarship. Apparently they had watched a video of our performance of the Nutcracker, and saw potential.

[is_a_good_girl]

But... what about my parents?

[sword_and_shoes]

Unfortunately I cannot offer them anything in regards to fare or board. This is very sudden, I know.

[yaoisurujanai]

This is how I find out?

[sword_and_shoes]

This is much the same way I found out. There's no easy way out of this for me, either. That's why I want to offer the last spot to you. You would not even have to dance, you could go in for studying choreography, and it would be perfect. This is something I could not even think of refusing, you must understand.

I would rather stay with you than anything else, but this is out of my hands.

何だって言うのよお前からこんなの聞くもんか貴様はこれであたしを捨てる気だったら死んじゃえば良い!

Good god, Chika, you never taught me some of these words.

I understand that you are upset, and you have every right to be I guess. I, for my part, was just as unprepared [the line cuts off, as if he just stopped typing]

I will be at your plane in fifteen minutes. Hopefully we can sort this out in the least damaging way.

B-but!

But Fakir think of how many times I fall on my face in class!

[sword_and_shoes]

According to my count, almost eighty percent less than when you started. I'm sure we could get that number higher if you studied with actual maitres d'ballet. This is something I do not have the skill to give you.

Please consider it.

[tripoverair]

You really think I'm good enough to go?

[sword_and_shoes]

I don't just think it, Collette. I see great potential in you, a potential I can't get to. I know this is a big decision thrown on you in so little time and during a crisis, so if you decide this is not for you, I will understand.

[artofextortion]

GO BACK TO RUSSIA!

[sword_and_shoes]

Christ, Hiruma, can't you ever keep to your own business? And for your records, I've only been there twice.

[artofextortion]

It's my fucking business to make it my fucking business, or did you already forget?

[Private]

[sword_and_shoes]

If this is your business, then you must know more about the people behind the decision to close the school. Ukitake probably won't give me the information I want. What's your price?
