I had last met Sengoku Nadeko more than six years ago.
Thus, I didn't recognize her at first when we met again.

If I had only realized sooner that it was her,

perhaps the story wouldn't have ended like this.
Cut 27
But those regrets don't mean anything to her or the oddity.
I let out a belated shout
at the state of
Sengoku Nadeko's skin.
All of her skin was covered with scale marks. From the tips of her toes up to her collarbone.
Snugly.
For a moment, I thought they were growing from her skin, but upon closer inspection, they weren't.
They were simply pressed
on, like a woodcut--
It looked as though her skin had been pressed into a pattern.
It looked like she was even
bleeding internally here and there.
Those painful-looking scars made her look like she had been bound with rope.
No--
Bondage scars?
Seriously, it was from the tips of her toes, up her legs, and along her body-- It was like something was coiling itself around her.
Something
invisible.
Scale marks, all over her body.
Coiled
around her.
Coiled... as if she were possessed.
Coil
At best, the only areas without the scale marks were both her arms, and from her neck up. No need to get her to show me what her waist and lower abdomen look like underneath those bloomers.

Oh, and watch your step.

Oh, that's right, Kanbaru.
Talking about Senjougahara reminded me that it's almost her birthday.
Yeah. It's July 7th.
I've been thinking about the type of party to have. It's our first time, so I figured something lively would be nice.
Perhaps we should invite all our friends and have a small birthday party.
No, I think Senjougahara-senpai wants to spend it alone with you.
She's that fine of a woman?

Hey, Kanbaru.
What, Araragi-senpai?

I'm a little worn out.

You don't look that good. Are you okay?

Well, it must have been pretty tough, Araragi-kun.
Now that I think about it, I'm sure someone was holding some kind of ritual and killing the snakes like that.
After all, it was at a shrine.

That has to be kind of disturbing to Senjougahara-san.
Disturbing?
She doesn't want you getting along too well with Kanbaru-san, does she?
Am I right? Getting along is fine. If anything, she wants the two of you to get along,
but she wants a clear line to be drawn.
It seems that she wants to be sure you'd pick her out of the two of them.
I don't get it.
It's a dilemma for her too, isn't it?
You're her dear boyfriend, but Kanbaru-san is her dear junior.

I figured it out when I saw her at the bookstore earlier.
I think she's an old friend of my youngest sister.
What?!
So she's at the shrine again today?
Yeah, I think.

It's tough to go up to an old acquaintance and say hi.
She might not remember me, so it'll seem like a creepy pickup line.
The self-defense instincts of an adolescent girl are pretty fearsome.
You sound like you know that from experience.
Can't deny that.
And you seem like you're pretty good with younger girls, Kanbaru.
After all, you're the school's top star.
I see. I get what you mean.
I guess I am pretty good with younger girls.
