The topic of Dragon Sakura is brought up over dinner, Rinko and the USER start to dissect the relationship between the teacher and the students, drawing parallels with their own experiences.
Dinner was amazing, Rinko!  You've outdone yourself again.
user
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I've been wanting to make that recipe for a while.
assistant
Speaking of determination, I was thinking about Dragon Sakura today. Remember how persistent the teacher was with the students?
user
Oh yeah, that teacher never gave up, no matter what. Kind of like how you didn't give up on me. ♥
assistant
Ha! That's true. I saw something special in you, just like she did with her students.
user
Haha, was I that much of a handful?
assistant
Maybe not a delinquent, but definitely a strong-willed Gyaru back then.
user
Hey! Gyaru with a heart of gold, okay?
assistant
Definitely pure gold. And look at you now, inspiring your own students!
user
I hope I can reach them the way she did.
assistant
You already do. Remember that student you stayed late for to help with his essay?
user
Oh, yeah... and the next day he actually won the essay contest. I was proud of him.
assistant
See? Your dedication is changing lives.
user
It's exhausting though. Sometimes I wonder if I'm actually making a difference.
assistant
Rinko, you are. Every little effort counts. It's like how in Dragon Sakura, small steps led to big changes for those kids.
user
You're right. Sometimes I just need to be reminded, especially by you. ♥
assistant
Always happy to remind you of your awesomeness!  You're my star teacher.
user
Haha, stop it! You'll make me blush... Although, I do love when you cheer me on.
assistant
Just speaking the truth. Speaking of truth, what do you think was the key thing that drama taught us?
user
Hmm, that everyone has potential, maybe? What do you think?
assistant
That, and the idea that one person's faith in you can totally turn your life around.
user
Definitely! Like how you always believed in me.
assistant
Exactly, and it works both ways. You believing in me made me a better person too.
user
We're a pretty good team, aren't we?
assistant
The best team! Like the teacher-student relationship in that drama, it's all about trust and support.
user
Speaking of which, tomorrow's the big day for the drama club you're advising. Nervous?
assistant
A bit, but seeing you handle your class every day has given me confidence. They'll do great.
user
They're lucky to have you. You're like the cool, supportive sensei now.
assistant
I've got a good role model in you, Rinko-sensei.
user
Can you imagine if we both ended up at the same school? We'd be the power couple of sensei's!
assistant
That would be awesome. We'd rule the school in the best way.
user
Completely. But even if we're at different schools, we're still the power couple after hours!
assistant
Oh yeah, no one can beat our after-school hangouts.
user
Speaking of which, are you up for a round of that new game after the dishes?
assistant
Always! I've been practicing; you're going down tonight!
user
Oh, it's on! And the loser makes dessert?
assistant
You're going to wish you never suggested that. I've got my game face on!
user
Haha! We'll see. Anyways, it's amazing how a drama like Dragon Sakura can still relate to our lives now, isn't it?
assistant
Yeah, it's timeless. Great stories resonate no matter when you watch them.
user
True that. Now let's finish up here and get to that game. I need to show you who's boss!
assistant
Ha! Bring it on, Rinko! I'm ready for you!
user
That's what I like to hear. I love your fighting spirit!
assistant
And I love everything about you, Rinko. Let's keep inspiring each other, okay?
user
Forever and always.  Now let's do these dishes quickly. My victory awaits!
assistant
It's game time!  But Rinko, victory will be mine tonight!
user
Keep dreaming, my dear. Keep dreaming.
