From the Corner I See, In the Corner I See

PROLOGUE: Summer Break

Kadoc knew he wasn't getting out of this one unless there was someone in the group he wasn't comfortable with, "Who's going?"

Pepe's hand went to her chin, like she was in thought, "It would be you, me, Ophelia, Hinako, and Beryl. So you're coming! Now come on let's go!"

Kadoc was practically dragged out of the building to Beryl's car. Ophelia was the first one to notice them approaching, "Hello Kadoc, how's your summer going?"

"Fine, nothing much has happened," he yawned, "This is actually the first time I'm going to be hanging out with friends all summer."

"What? Kadoc, I told you to take care of yourself. Socialize with people in person  once every two days at least, and make sure that you get plenty of rest. Do you see  your eyebags?" Kadoc didn't know if Beryl was teasing him or berating him, so he just shook his head. Beryl sighed.

"Can't we just go?" Hinako asked. Kadoc knew she had also been forced along, probably more so than him though. Hinako opened the car door, "I have more productive things I could be doing right now."

Pepe smiled, "Why of course we can go! Since you don't want to deal with any of us, you can get the back row all to yourself! Ophelia and Kadoc get the middle row, Beryl drives, and I get shotgun!"

No one had any complaints about where Pepe had placed them, so they all climbed into the car. They had been in the car for half an hour, chatting away and singing to the radio (surprisingly, Hinako joined in singing some songs), when he realized he didn't know where they were going. It was a little late now anyway.

By the time they parked it was almost noon, and they were now standing in front of an amusement park. Hinako's eye twitched, "You took me away from working on my job application, to come here?" 

Hinako was seething, and everyone knew that wasn't a good thing, "Um, I-I mean it could, uh, it could be fun. Y-you don't know until you t-try."

"I'm so proud of you Kadoc!" Beryl gave him a bone-crushing hug, "Attempting to tame the mighty beast, Hinako, and only stuttering a few times!"

Hinako only grew angrier when he said that, "At least he isn't an insensitive jerk who is currently cutting off someones oxygen supply!"

It was true. Kadocs face was starting to go purple, and Beryl immediately let go, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. Kadoc are you okay do you need anything? Water, food, CPR?"

Kadoc shook his head, still trying to catch his breath. It appeared that somewhere along the line Ophelia and Pepe had gone to get their tickets, as they came back with them in hand.

"Do I even want to know what happened?" glancing over at Kadoc, Ophelia seemed at least a little worried about his current state.

"If I had to make a guess," Pepe had a smug look on her face, "Hinako was mad that we stopped her from doing whatever she was doing to come here. Kadoc then tried to calm her down, and because Beryl is the doting older brother figure he is, he gave Kadoc a hug. The hug was probably very tight, making it near impossible for Kadoc to breath. Hinako then pointed this out to Beryl, who let go and started asking if Kadoc was alright. Then we walked over, am I right?"

Kadoc, who had caught his breath at this point, nodded, "Spot on as always Pepe."

"Of course you get it right," rolling her eyes, Ophelia walked towards the entrance, "Now, why don't we have some fun?"

Hey all!

It's Author One: Luck here, with a 'mini' Author's Note!

I only play FGO NA, and as of writing this, no Lostbelts have been released. I'm getting most of my information from the wiki, so characters are going to be out of character! If there is something that a character would do under no  circumstances in cannon, please let me know what they would do instead!

ACCORDING TO THE WIKI PEPE REFERS TO THEMSELVES USING SHE/HER PRONOUNS! If this changes, I will come back and change it.

This is a Kadoc x Anastasia story, don't like it, don't read it!

If there are any grammatical errors, please, please, please point them out to me, I want this to be as good of a reading experience and you'll get.

Also, if anyone knows how to make it so the texts that Kadoc will send are on the right side of the screen, please tell me. I can't figure it out for the life of me.
