One thing I noticed with the previous page where they're meeting up with the rest of the group. Sano asks how long they've been together and Ayako replies 3 years and there's a frame of her wedding ring. That is entirely her fantasy since Toda doesn't know that Mana is with Sano yet. Ayako is a lot thirstier then she realizes. :3:

Edit: I was right!

The visuals (like, for example, the wedding ring...) are also mostly her.

I get the impression she just gets the vague idea from him of "a college reunion where we're dating and then hook up" and everything else is hers. The dialogue might also be from Toda, but wasn't Sano mentioned in the dialogue? Posting from phone so it's a pain to go back and check.

Toda directly acknowledges Sano in the daydream, so yeah. That just reinforces the notion that Aya was doing the brunt of the work. I'm sure the lewd was Toda's doing though...right?

The question is how detailed the script she's getting from Toda is.

Yeah, I'm thinking it's not so much a script as "the general idea of a thing happening" in cases like this (that aren't just subvocalizing, which she seems to pick up directly). Like if Toda thinks "I want to hook up right now" she'll get that explicitly as words, but if he's just imagining hooking up with her she'll just get the concept of "Toda hooking up with me" and all the details are hers.

Are you kidding? That's the most expressive we've seen him. He's practically having an emotional break down at this point. Just go hug her Toda and be done with it.

Like a normal person, she will quickly forget this enthusiasm once it comes time to sit down and study a bunch. I also remember getting all enthusiastic and motivated as a teen when I wasn't actually having to do the hard work of studying/practicing.

She doesn't sound particularly enthusiastic. Determined sure, but she seems aware it's not something she will exactly enjoy.

I think her little joint fantasy with Toda on where they could be, (ie: Together, Married, All Lovey Dovey), has motivated her as her goal to reach. College is just the stepping stone.

oh gently caress when you put it like that, it becomes extremely real for my life. i was thinking like this all through my last year of university and it's finally about to pay off now that i'm a few months past graduation.

i absolutely went from a c/d student to a b student once i found the person i loved and realized what i had to do. determination is great.
