[ This time, the scene in the classroom is real, but Alice half-expects familiar faces not here at all to reappear — he tries not to look for them. He agreed to attend this gathering, after all, an easy promise to keep on such a memorable date, and Chiaki Nanami's bustling about is a reassuring sight. She and her twin sister truly went to great lengths to organize the event, from decorations to refreshments to the selection of games!
Evidently, the tournament isn't only that, but a party, something that Alice may be slightly rusty navigating. It isn't complicated to hover around with a plate and a cup in hand, at least, to hang back and watch. When Nanami is free, he even raises his hand to wave in greeting first.
I'm really glad you could be here — he hasn't forgotten her words, elsewhere. The moment he learns that today is in fact the Nanamis' birthday, he'll regret that he has nothing that would make a good gift. ]
