Strange. Is it normal to think you'll turn into another person if you change your hair?

Mother and Father said I seemed dimmer than usual.

The conversation you had above. I suppose it would not be out of possibility to say that appearance has a profound effect on behavior, and vice-versa, but it is strange.

Strange? I think it makes complete sense.

In a way, I suppose it would. A drastic change in appearance would make one act in a different behaviors. But for it to seemingly affect things such as intelligence is very strange, to me.

Generally though, it wouldn't make you a completely different person. You are who you are.

You are defined by how you look, I have surmised.

...Some people can think that, but I personally disagree. While people will expect you to act a certain way if you dress a certain way, your personality is your own, and can be anything based on any number of things. What you like to do and what kind of person you are, nice, cruel, etc. can determine how people think of you.

What people think of me determines what I like, what I do, and what not.

...Again, I disagree. Only you can determine who you are and what you do. Relying on other people's opinions of you to determine your life does not seem... truthful?

I guess what I'm saying is... what is constant about you makes you who you are.

So.. who are you?

Wakahisa Noriko. My... friends... call me Moeko.

...Well, I would hope to become your friend, then. My name is Hengenjizai Satoru. Do you mind if I call you Moeko, as well?

I am glad to get to know you then, Moeko-san.

Thank you, whoever you are.

Hengenjizai Satoru. Just call me Satoru, Moeko-san.

... Alright, Satoru.
