[Nobody here is a poetry girl except for her, and for a normal person, that might be excruciating. For a normal person!
But, she nods in agreement, voicing the mood she thinks she catches in Dove's pensive expression--] Sheesh.
I wonder if "classes" will go back in session then. [And what that means...It's clear she's not talking about the half-pipe dream school she keeps talking about setting up with the kids here.]
[Any desire to give the "students" her a good education that she might have, fanatical as it is alongside her infection, Cadence still... has to agree. The lingering spirits here like "games" and "punishments" too much.]
Yeah? Where does your fear of homework come from, then?
[To Cadence, she just sounds like a regular high schooler. She's always struck her as someone who didn't much have to worry about survival when she wasn't sitting behind a school desk.]
Oh, right, right. It's only logical. [Still bullshitting that she's convinced, a bit pitchy and indulgent in her voice.] A "cupid" would hang out at a high school, wouldn't they? A lot of young love?
[She says it like she's taking notes on it, even if there's no pen to be seen despite the papers she's carrying, and like she's waiting for Dove to say even more.]
[ It isn't even subtle how much Cadence doesn't seem to believe her, which is... fair; Koharu wouldn't consider herself a good liar. Both her shoulders and wings droop with an air of guilt, mouth pursing into a thin line as she, once again, attempts to find her words. ]
Maybe... one day. [ But there's a lot she's omitting with this response. ] That would be better back home than it would here, though.
[She's only got her suspicions. Cadence'sgrandiose thoughts don't always seem to follow logical reasoning, but by now Dove might have noticed that she notices and commits to memory even the most random of details. What kind of reporter would she be if she didn't?
When the girl droops, Raven leans a little closer, a gentle breeze ripple through the stagnant, humid air between them. She grins with her pointiest smile.]
You don't know what you're missing, skipping out on one of my classes. Anyway, they couldn't see you, could they? Just because you're invisible, don't think the teacher would let you forget your homework, though. [Gahaha.] I hope one day that's all you kids have to worry about.
I wear many hats. [If anything, her tooth smile is just gleaming now.]
No matter my plumage, I always strive for the truth and to stir hearts into action. Whether that be penning an epic ode, uncovering the shady actions of a government hack job, or inspiring the next generation to create a better future
I might not be the best person to ask. I don't think I'd be able to defend myself against a lot of things around here, so I stick to the dorm a lot of the time.

[ Funny how attending actual classes here of all places is coming up again. ]
I really hope not! I don't want to think about trying to do homework on top of dodging all the yokai...

Back home, did school give you a hard time, too?
no subject
[ An immediate response doesn't come; Koharu takes a notable moment to think, as if mulling over what words to choose carefully. Then: ]
I... don't attend school. Cupids don't live like humans do, so...

Um—watching other students?

[ That's further into her future than most of the others' her age, though. Koharu trails off, then: ]
Are you a teacher, Miss Cadence?

Of government jobs... [ That sounds. Wild? ] I suppose it's never a dull day for you then, is it?
no subject
[Beat.]
Crazier. Say, speaking of, heard anything worth siking teeth into about the school? [Give her a lead to sniff out...she'll go snooping.]
