[The video feed clicks on to show... a very unusual-looking hamster. Guess who found an Animal Card, guys? Minami opens her fuzzy little mouth to speak, her voice almost like she breathed in a whole tank of helium:]

Um... So, exactly how long do these card effect thingies stay for? I mean, seeing everything all big and stuff is pretty cool and all, buuuut... It's kinda sorta hard to do things this way too? I really can't cook dinner today like this...

Also, can someone get me a bag of sunflower seeds? For some reason I feel like eating them~

[... This is what happens when Dominic moves out of Hotel Dusk. Seriously, Minami?]

... M-Minami!?

[Oh, hey Dominic. Been a while. Minami waves a paw.]

Oooh, that's me, that's me~! How's it going, Dominic?

I'm well, I guess...

[...]

... This is a little strange, to be honest.

[Minami tilts her head in confusion. She doesn't seem to be too concerned about this.]

How so? While being like this is pretty inconvenient, I think the experience is kinda cool~!

Well, when I picked up a card, I was still human, at least... But I guess I could see how it'd be an interesting experience.

Oh~? Maybe there's different kinds of cards! I'd really like to try them all... It sounds kind of fun!

[Yes, she actually wants to find more cards.]

[...]

You're taking this rather well.

[:D?]

Well, why wouldn't I? I'll only be like this for a few days, plus I think this stuff could people a whole new perspective on the world.

That's one way to look at it, I guess. At the very least, you'll probably appreciate being human at the end of it...

[DEAR GOD WHAT IN THE NAME OF--

This is Shinjiro gawking at the camera because what.]

[And Minami tilts her tiny, furry head questioningly.]

Something wrong, senpai?

[It's perfectly understandable, he's heard something about cards, he questioned it before. But no matter that now, because Minami have you looked in a mirror? You-- How does he even--]

You.. became a rodent? [..Well, that.]

.. Wait, where are you-?! [BECAUSE YOU KNOW, THE DOGS MIGHT EAT YOU.]

A hamster, I think!

[She doesn't seem too bothered by it, though. Or even remotely concerned, for that matter.]

Ummm... I'm in my room? I think I forgot to lock the door....

... Mi-Minami?!!

[Waves a paw.]

Hey, Shicchan~! Been a while~

Er, hey. [She waves back.] Ehe...

Hmm, the card's effect usually lasts up to 5 days.

Oh, I can live with that! Seriously, I have no idea why people freak out when things like this happen. I mean, look at me! I'm cute and fluffy~

[People freak out when this happens because they're not exactly keen on being animals for almost a week, Minami. :|]

Aww~ You kinda are. [Coos. She can't help it.]

[They don't? D: Suckitude.]

Gee, thanks~

[Speaking of which...]

Hmmm... Maybe I should stay in one of those plastic ball things so no one will step on me when I run around? I've always wondered what it was like to be in one of those!

You want to run around in those little plastic hamster balls?

[S-so cute. *^*]

I guess if you still want to move around...

Yeah~! I want a red one!

[... Wait.]

... Do you think it'd be safe for me to go down the stairs in one?

I don't know... It might pop open while you're going down the stairs.

... Oh. Yeah. That might not be too good. I don't wanna think about what'll happen if the balls starts going too fast, either...

[Hmmmm...]

Maybe I can just stay on the first floor!

Yeah, that's probably a better idea. At least you'll be easier to spot if you're only in one place.

One of those cards turned you into that?

Sure did! I did wonder what it would be like to be a hamster once, so I guess that's another mystery solved!

Hm, perhaps there's spells attached to those cards, must be a point to them after all. I just simply put them away in my room.
Just warm me which one you used, I do not wish to be a hamster.

Hmm, well, the thing is... I kind of... used it against my will? It's like, as soon as laid eyes on it, my body just started moving on it's own! And then it was like 'pichi pachi hoi hoi hoi~!' then I became like this!

[He's pretty sure this isn't normal for anyone else..]

When..when did this happen? Are you alright?

Well, I found this card on my nightstand a few minutes ago, and then before I knew it, I turned into a hamster!

[She recalls the moments as if nothing were wrong.]

I'm perfectly fine, though! Aside from it being harder to do things, that is~

Ah, being that size that..would make it harder. But I think the cards are a few days of that effect.

Really? Thank goodness! I'd be more worried if it was any longer than that. I guess there really isn't much to worry about~

It makes me wonder why people are so upset when they end up using these cards...

[Ya so not talking about that..]

Well some people might..not like the idea of turning into animals or an opposite gender..

[She thinks about that one.]

Hmmm... It's understandable, but I think we should all be thankful that it's only temporary. Plus, I think it gives us a whole different view on the world when we experience these kind of things!

[You got his attention with that comment]

Maybe people might..have more compassion that way..

You think so too?

[Minami beams with the brightest smile her little hamster face could muster.]

It would be nice if everyone could understand each other, even both humans and animals!

Of course.

[So much he could say here and just won't..]

That..would be something.

[...what]

M-Minami? H-hey, what happened to you?!

Oh, Yukari!

[Minami waves a paw.]

I found a card on the floor, and then the next thing I kneeew... it did the voodoo that they do so well~! It was like 'Woosh~' and then I was like 'Ah!' And then it was like 'KABOOM!!'

And then I turned into a hamster.

[... Good luck deciphering that.]

[...]

Riiiight.

So you picked up a card and got turned into a hamster.

This place is so weird.

[Thank god Rise's seen this happen before already. She can't help but laugh.]

Looks like you'll be needed a little extra help until that wears off.

Haha, looks like it!

[Minami doesn't seem very troubled about it, though.]

You think I can run around in those plastic ball things while I'm like this? I always wanted to know what it was like to be in one!

Maybe? Sometimes you really think about strange things, Minami-chan. [She's just joking of course.]

So I've been told a lot~ But you know, sometimes thoughts that are called 'strange' can lead to great developments!

[Then again, there are times when she just does this on purpose.]

I'd be more worried about accidentally changing back while I was inside the ball.

This happens lots?

[It's kind of hard to text back when you're a hamster, so have a video reply.]

Hmmm... I'm not sure! This is the first time it's happened to me~

[ Wh, what... ]

T-Talking... Hamster...?
