Dialogue[]

(First interaction)

Alphonse: ...In my opinion, this is not only a violation of the legitimate rights and interests of teaching staff, it is also a disservice to the students! Therefore, my request is...

Alphonse: Hmm... I don't feel like that phrasing is harsh enough... Maybe I should change it to: "making a joke of student futures"?

So, what is your request?

Don't mince your words!

Alphonse: ...Hm? Being able to eavesdrop and still seem so self-righteous is a talent. Was there something you wanted to talk to me about?

I'm just a passing student.

Alphonse: Just making sure to get the gossip as you wander by, huh? Although... I guess I could tell you more if you're really curious.

I'm curious, please go on?

Alphonse: Alright, I guess I could satisfy your curiosity... Curiosity is like a brain — it's always better to have it.

Alphonse: To put it simply, I recently heard from a student that there is a professor working in the Charmony Academy dream bubble connoisseurship course who knows absolutely nothing about interplanetary culture.

Alphonse: I was absolutely shocked! I ended up actually going to a few of his classes and, well...

Alphonse: Guess what? Not only could he not even name the few Xianzhou ships, but he also said that the Merlin's Claw is a borisin and that the main character in the Cosmic Ninjutsu Inscriptions is from Izumo!

Alphonse: He's an experienced academy professor, yet his teachings were full of holes. Isn't that ridiculous?

...That's outrageous.

Alphonse: Right? It's outrageous that a teacher like that would be able to stay and serve as a professor at Paperfold University!

Even I know these things.

Alphonse: Is that so? I see you have a vast scope of research. We should find time for a good discussion.

Alphonse: That's not even the most ridiculous part... I have tried to report this to the university through various channels and yet it's been completely swept under the rug! They haven't even given me a decent reply!

Alphonse: I don't mean to boast, but in terms of professional capability, we young teachers are just as good as these old... ahem, our seniors, who just spend all their time reading out from the textbook.

Alphonse: But, there is no changing the reality: Some people manage to occupy the professor positions based purely on their history and experience, while those who possess genuine talent and intellect are left with nothing but elective courses.

Alphonse: Now you understand my complaint, right? Opportunities like this don't come around often. I will take the school anniversary celebration as my moment to bring this matter to the university face-to-face.

(If Alphonse's Emotion is set to Calm)

Alphonse: Hm? You again...

Are you up for a chat?

Alphonse: You have more questions? I wish my students were as interested and proactive as you...

Tell me more about this professor.

Alphonse: Ah... If I'm honest, his lectures weren't really that bad... It's just that in half a system hour, he mispronounced five words, used three incorrect quotes, and completely confused the authors of two separate documents.

Alphonse: Do you know how I felt when he said "aeronautics" instead of "aerodynamics" with a completely straight face?

Alphonse: When I attended a lecture at the Intelligentsia Guild, I heard that there was a professor who was allergic to stupidity... Now I know what that feels like!

Does the school not care?

Alphonse: Theoretically, they should care about it. However, in reality... you cannot expect a school to achieve the "perfection" of a dream simply because it is built inside a dream and has the motto: "Color your dreams, free your ideals."

Alphonse: Wherever there are people, there will be conflicts of interest and disagreements. After all... that is just how people are.

Alphonse: However, naturally, that won't stop me from continuing to defend the rights of myself and my students.

I'll let you get on.

Alphonse: You've heard enough to satisfy you? Go and entertain yourself then.

That's all. See ya.

Alphonse: Ah, where did I just read up to...

(If Alphonse's Emotion is set to Angry): A smile hung on the young professor's face, but a quiet rage burned in his eyes.; That's all. See ya.

(If Alphonse's Emotion is set to Happy): Alphonse: What a wonderful show...; That's all. See ya.

(If Alphonse's Emotion is set to Sad): Alphonse: ...At the end of the day, what's the difference?; That's all. See ya.

Clockwork[]

Activate Clockwork

Calm

Alphonse: As you enjoy talking to me so much, how about taking my elective next semester? I plan to teach the customs and culture of Vonwacq. It's super easy and there will be loads of extracurricular activities.

Alphonse: Plus... as we're friends, I may be able to bump your grades up a bit when it comes to end-of-term exams?

Angry

(First time): Alphonse: That professor... I did some secret research into his background: He's a Penacony native from a prestigious family. He graduated from this academy with average grades, but he has an uncle... who coincidentally is a big shot in The Family.; Alphonse: Ah... For the sake of my research, I would be willing to traverse the dangerous wilds or go deep into unknown rainforests. I could go without food or water for many days to observe and record... But what about him?; Alphonse: Pure knowledge brings him no joy. It is just a tool for him to make a living, a springboard for fame.; Alphonse: ...I want you to have this. I hope that you will never become such a loathsome person.

(Subsequent interactions): Alphonse: That professor... Pure knowledge brings him no joy. It is just a tool for him to make a living, a springboard for fame.; Alphonse: People like this... I find them especially loathsome...

Happy

Alphonse: I have to say, the last reporting session was truly wonderful. It was the first time I have ever seen professors from across the three academies argue so ferociously...

Alphonse: The Fortune Academy lecturer called the Dreamweaver Academy lecturer "a stinky cement-mixing laborer." The Dreamweaver Academy lecturer said the Charmony Academy lecturer "puts on an act of superiority." The Charmony Academy lecturer criticized the Fortune Academy lecturer for "self-objectification"...

Alphonse: It was truly wonderful... Ah, is this the Harmony that Penacony touts? It is truly pathetic and laughable.

Sad

Alphonse: A few years ago, I once visited a remote and barren planet for my field research. The local people were still in the transitional period between nomadism and agriculture. They were more preoccupied with "survival" than "living."

Alphonse: I looked down on them with a sense of superiority and judged the locals: I watched them toiling all day to receive meager harvests and get into disputes over the uneven distribution of game meat. I felt an almost hypocritical pity for them.

Alphonse: But now I realize, more and more, that there is no difference between us and them, between our planet and theirs...

Alphonse: We so-called scholars spend all day toiling in the fields of knowledge to come back with dry harvests. Then, we plot and scheme over academic resources and can't wait to get into disputes.

Alphonse: So, should I pity myself? For normal people like us, there is no such thing as a pure paradise of knowledge after all.
