He wakes up with a rasping gasp and immediately sits up and starts coughing.
What... the fuck?

He's alive? Was it a dream? How much of it was a dream? The past week? Or just yesterday? He's, he needs to press the button that opens the blinds so that he knows if it's raining—
Him. That's him? The new him? He's a magical rock now?
...
He picks the rock up and... taps it with the tip of a finger.
Who are you and what is this? Are you reading my mind? Don't fucking read my mind! What is going on!
What? Wait, what? I'm not reading your mind, it's just—wait, hold on, was it just me? Of course it was just me—wait hold on number two, are you not a magical boy???
Did he become a magical boy after they first met???????
—okay! Magic 101: it's real! It's like Sailor Moon but boys can do it too! It's facilitated by this really cute fluffy guy called Kyūbey who is the one mediating this conversation actually so uh hi Kyūbey!
I haven't seen Sailor Moon but wouldn't I like, know about it, if I were a magical boy -
Yep, you totally would! Uhh okay I'm explaining everything out of order because I almost died just five minutes ago. Important context: I just time travelled from the future, a future in which you were dead and I was about to be. And I thought by now you'd be a magical boy already but apparently it was meant to happen over the next two weeks or something.
—oh, my name is Iwasaki Yutaka, I'm a new transfer student, I was going to meet you today. Nice to meet you.
...also you know what? He should multitask. He should, uh, well get up and go to school but also figure out this magic thing. Is transforming into a magical boy intuitive at all?
Oh, he also digs his magical boy outfit so much. White tights with silver streaks down the sides going into boots; this cool weird-looking robe thing that's also tight on the torso but flares out at the sleeves, with the sides of the stomach area missing and the coattails starting above his navel so his side abs and navel are exposed, also in white-and-silver plus a clockwork clock design on the back (which he can see on his bathroom mirror); white gloves with a diamond-shaped silver gem on the back of his left hand; and a shield thingy attached to his left forearm, also with a clockwork design.
It's so gay he loves it.
