Lloyd and Rixia run away and manage to name-drop every single person in Crossbell, and Lloyd ends by saying that there are many barriers in their way, but they can get over them together. I'm not crying, you're crying.

The scene switches back to Rean talking to Lechter on the phone about the mission. Lechter doesn't say much, but Rean does some more friendly shit with Altina then sighs and says he's jealous of Lloyd. Yeah, you should be. Bootlicker.

The ends the day though, and it skips ahead to March.

3/9

We're back in Erebonia. Rean and Claire are chatting after Rean's arrival back in the country. Rean is basically as angry as the writers allow him to get, which is mild annoyance. What upsets Rean is that Claire didn't tell him that Osborne was his dad. She says she didn't have any actual evidence, but she suspected it a bit because they seemed similar. That seems like a bit of a jump but okay. Not sure how Rean could expect her to know anyway, she's clearly not his closest confidant since she didn't even know that Rufus was working with him. Rean just goes "I see" and walks away. So edgy man. I don't think she was lying so why you gotta be so rude Schwarz?

As soon as he gets outside he thinks to himself that he's behaving like a child, so at least he caught that lol. It's revealed that you're in Trista, and everyone in Class VII walks out to greet him. They have their cuddly reunion and there's even a bit where everyone else walks away, but Rean and Alisa get a private flirty 'Nice to see you' as well. I wonder if it matches it to who you picked for your final event. I choose to believe it's always Alisa because it's obviously supposed to be Alisa.

It fades to black and has Rean give a voiceover of some of the events that led to him becoming a dog of the military, I won't bore you with it. But he says that the days he spent with his classmates were the best he ever had, and the day skips ahead again...

3/12

Today starts off with a black screen and the history teacher saying, "...and that brings us up to the modern era." which is the most meta that this franchise has ever gotten lmao. That's definitely intentional, right? It did take them two games to catch up with the Crossbell epilogue, but by god they did it. They show a day in the life of the kids at school, a glimpse of what they fought so hard to achieve - normalcy. To me it looks hellish. I'm glad I'm done with that shit, working is so much better. School is basically like going to work except you don't get paid. Not a hard choice.

They end the day with Sara telling us that we have a free day and to use it wisely. There's a cute scene of Alisa and Rean meeting up and hugging and blushing and acting cute together before the game lets you free. Since they can't write in a real romance I guess they have to use times like this to fill that gap. Unfortunate, but what can you do...

Exploring the campus, talking to Makarov on the rooftop shows a new building being made that's supposed to house Valimar and some soldats, so they can begin training the cadets in Soldat warfare. Makes sense to me. Ugh, does this mean that CS3 is going to be in Trista again then? If they're hyping this up it would suggest that. I was hoping we were getting away from this damn school man. I want to go back to Crossbell.

When you talk to Thomas he gives you the fully decoded black records...oh man! Forgot about those. Let's see what we have here...

They're still censored in the book tab, and when you look at the item in your inventory it says 'best to read these in the evening'. Man they REALLY want to make you wait for these lol. I want my lore dump already!

As you go around talking to all the students, a bunch of the second years talk about the jobs they'll be getting once they graduate, but it's all normal stuff like chef, writer, etc. Aren't they in a military academy? Why is nobody joining the fucking military lol.

When you try to go to Beryl's club the door is locked and Rean's like, there's no record of anyone using this room...spooky. Ghost student Beryl better come back next game or I boycott. Angie and George get a scene in the engineering room where they talk about their plans. They're both going to travel around the continent, Angie on her bike just going wherever she fancies and George going to prestigious factories around the continent to learn. He says Liberl is his first stop, nice. Gotta check in with Tita!

I finally found one person saying that they were joining the army, the weird noble that's obsessed with his horse. He says he's joining the imperial cavalry...ok. Makes sense, but I can't imagine that's a very useful position now that they've got tanks and giant armored robots, but maybe you can find something to do with your horse, buddy. I believe in you.

There's also a scene with Towa where she tells Rean to stop holding it all in, and he breaks down and cries about not being able to save Crow. Damn. Towa is that dude for sure, nobody else would tell Rean he can cry but Towa has that real strong mom energy. That catharsis ends and Rean meets up with the gang to go back to the dorm. They talk about what they're gonna do for dinner and then Sharon rolls up and is like nah kids I got you, go relax. Alisa gets mad and is all what reason could you POSSIBLY have for showing up this time? Which actually made me laugh lol. She's the master of timing for sure. Sharon says that Gwyn is back at Reinford helping run the company again, so glad to see that mother and grandfather have reunited.

Elliot and Rean sidebar about how weird it is that Sharon's able to go around in public doing whatever she wants, and Rean's just like nah I'm sure the government is cool with it. You think they know? I mean Ouroboros is kinda low key, I really doubt anyone knows that Sharon is some crazy enforcer. You know I mean Osborne, and the really high ups in the military have to know, sure, but I don't think that information is just...freely shared. I thought only the highest level people even knew Ouroboros existed to begin with. I don't get why the kids think that she would be harassed over it. I mean maybe I could see the top level government officials taking offense to a known Ouroboros member being so closely associated with the Reinford company. Maybe that's on Osborne's list for later, but he's probably got more important shit to worry about.

At the dorms we get some epilogue scenes to see what everyone's gonna be getting into. When you go to Crow's door, Rean says he's not ready for that one yet. I feel ya buddy. Machias is studying hard to enter a prestigious political academy. Elliot's going to a music academy. Gaius just wants to paint or something. Jusis is becoming the next Duke Albarea, since his dad is imprisoned and his brother is the mayor of Crossbell. Damn Jusis is doing all that while Gaius is just fucking off to go paint lmao. That's some juxtaposition. Everyone keeps referencing their plans in a six month time period, so maybe that means CS3 will be set six months from now? We'll see!

Upstairs with the ladies, Sara is going back to the bracer guild, as expected. Millium's going to do missions in Liberl and Remeferia. I guess she's allowed to tell Rean now that he's a military dog, not that it would've stopped her in the past anyway. Her convo starts off with her being curious as to why everyone's mood is so down, in reference to Crow dying I suppose, but they just kinda drop it and don't go anywhere with it. Aww, I was looking forward to more Millium character building. Also, I never mentioned this but Millium's voice actress actually does such a good job of a sad young girl trying her best to sound happy...it's very impressive.
