## Basic Files

The Leaper Monni is ■■■■ and was discovered on the planet■■■■, she is an Alienated parakeet. By the time she was discovered by Explorer-13, every aspect of her state had stabilized and she reported no ■■ abnormalities.

Her memory, however, seemed jumbled and many of her own accounts contradicted one another. Ms. Hardo suggested that her condition resembled ■■■■. Though the exact condition is as yet unclear, Monni has no major differences with the other Leapers. This personal file is open for observation and updating.

## Deep Level Files

**Background Story (I): Cute and Lively**

"Ms. Monni is so cute and lively!" Ms. Molly frequently praises Monni like that.

As the cafe's AI waitress console, I'm going to withhold my opinion on the matter.

When Ms. Monni ran into the cafe one day and said she wanted to help out, I was a little nervous. None of the security cameras could keep her in frame for longer than 20 seconds and she didn't remain still for longer than 2 seconds at a time.

Then she got behind the counter and started to work... which only made me even more nervous.

It's been ten minutes and she's still quiet, does that mean....

Aaaaaaaugh--!! I'm only equipped with ultra-light titanium under my skirt!

"It's normal to be a little more lively at her mental age, and it's so cute!"

I guess so.... Ms. Molly sure is kindhearted.

**Background Story (II): The Reason for Thievery**

A bag of flour went missing from the back of the kitchen, that's not good.

Flour from Earth before the explosion is extremely rare, I had to beg Doctor Wood forever to get her to help me develop a wheat specimen to make flour with. I was waiting until the next big celebration to show off my skills and give everyone a taste of the ancient art of Earth baking!

Looking at the security footage, I can see a figure carrying something-- it's Ms. Monni, without a doubt!

I went to interrogate her, but to my surprise she immediately admitted that she stole the flour and even seemed a little proud. She said the reason was that she had heard an ancient fairytale, "The Sparrow with the Split Tongue," at Ms. Molly's story circle and remembered that a series of adventures began after the sparrow secretly ate some starch.

"So you believed the story and decided to steal my flour?"

"That's not it! It's just that the story reminded me there was some flour in the kitchen I could steal!"

Monniiiiii!!! Next time you got into hot water in my kitchen, I'll throw you straight from the fire into my frying pan and we'll see how you like it!

**Background Story (III): Great Prophet**

Yesterday as Tako was passing by Ms. Monni and Ms. Lalyssa's divination stall, Ms. Monni called out and stopped her with a prediction: calamity was going to befall Tako that day during her mission!

Tako didn't believe it, of course.

"Like a day in the park!" That's what Tako said after we finished the mission.

While we were flying back to base, all of a sudden a bag of flour dropped from the ceiling of the ship and landed on Tako's face,some of it got on my scales too.

Good thing the auto-pilot system didn't get messed up and got us all safely back to base. No one got hurt but it was pretty surprising for a second. So that was good luck....

Why would there be a bag of flour on the ceiling of the ship?

"It's proof that my prediction was right, of course! 3,000 Leaper Coins, please, no checks. Thanks and come again!"

**Background Story (IV): The Future**

Ms. Monni has lots of weird items lying around, though most of them can only be seen in our documents. I've been curious about this for a long time.

Yesterday Ms. Monni pulled out an "ancient compass" to show everyone and told us it could detect both directions and spiritual energy.... Whatever that is.

According to her, she can use it to see the futures of everyone in the room.

I asked her to give us a demonstration, so she closed her eyes and walked around the room several times.

"Look! Listen! It's-- destiny! You!" Ms. Monni opened her eyes, "will become what you want to be.... You will have knowledge, wisdom... and poise.."

Just like Doctor Wood, you mean?

Then she said that Captain Gaia will always keep focused on this world....

"What about me, meow?" Ms. Doranana piped up, excited by all the action.

"Hmm, you... are in a fantasy... a madness!" Ms. Monni said, looking very satisfied with herself indeed.

**Background Story (V): The Past**

Everyone knows, Ms. Monni is a Leaper without a past. In all the resplendent stars of the universe, she doesn't even know which one was once her home. Those stories she tells, half fantasy and half reality, are distortions of time, obscurations of space: we have no way of judging what truth lies behind her falsehoods and chaos.

While living deep in the mountains, an ancient one once asked: "As Rosy is a mystic bird, can she see the future of a person's life?" I didn't answer, and how could I.

The future is unknowable and unspeakable.

All beings are ignorant of tomorrow, and thus nostalgic for yesterday.

It is for this reason that Ms. Monni, ignorant of both her path and its destination, feels such burning enthusiasm for every present moment. There will always come a day in which our vision passes through darkness and sees into the depths of the universe.

For ourselves as we shall exist in that moment, the present is indeed already past.

Yet for Ms. Monni, the present is truly just the present, and nothing more.
