This spring, Shiodome Sena transferred to Sakura Makoto Academy to secretly put an end to the increasingly severe disturbances from another world.
Though she was using her twin brother's identity.
On her first day of school, she happened to encounter her first anomaly.
And the rumor about the anomaly's true nature was rather... peculiar.
"The room you can't leave unless you do ○○"
Worse still, she wasn't the only one trapped in the room.
Her classmate, Dazai.
Shiodome Sena: What a disastrous start.
-
Fortunately, Shiodome Sena was more than capable, and her life at school disguised as a boy was mostly without incident.
...Though she'd have had an easier time if she could shake off Dazai, who was always testing her identity.
"Shiodome, your handwriting looks so delicate. Did you practice it on purpose?"
"Shiodome, your hair is so long. Isn't it hard to take care of?"
"Shiodome, you eat so little. Are you sure you're full?"
"Shiodome..."
Shiodome Sena: ...
Dazai might be easy on the eyes, but only when he kept his mouth shut.
-
Once her idiot brother had recovered from his injuries and could return to his mission, Shiodome Sena promptly stepped aside and put everything back on track.
But he'd barely been back a few days when her idiot brother called her.
He hesitated for a long while before finally speaking.
"Sis, when you were on the mission in my place, were you dating the guy next door?"
"Huh??"
Shiodome Sena was full of questions.
"Why else would he suddenly barge into my room, crying and yelling that I'd played with his feelings..."
"Now he's making me take responsibility. What am I supposed to do?!"
"..."
Shiodome Sena was speechless.
How was she supposed to know!
Tips:
1. Uses the setting of an academy game, but includes lots of original alterations. The plot has nothing to do with the academy.
2. My take on Academy Dazai.
3. Includes the popular plotline of a character wondering if he's gay. If you can't accept that, please leave now. No unsolicited writing advice.
4. Gugu is a fragile little pigeon who only wants to hear people praise Dazai. Comments that aren't kind to Dazai will be gobbled up, but praise for Dazai is very welcome!

6. Cover layout by Bobby Dawang on xhs.
7. I'll add anything else that comes to mind.
8. The title and blurb are provisional and may change, but the premise won't.
