"dreamtime" challenge.
This takes place one or two years after the girls' New Year dreams in episode 8 of the TV series.

"Kaorin!" her mother said. "It's New Year's Day! Time to get up!"
Kaorin slowly woke up. "Oh... Good morning..." she said distantly.
"What," her mother said, "no begging for a 'continuation', this year?"
"No," Kaorin said, "actually, I'm glad you woke me up from this dream."
"Oh?" her mother said.
"I dreamed I was an astronaut," Kaorin said nervously. "I confronted another woman with pepper spray, a knife and a gun. And I was wearing a trench coat, a wig... and... a diaper?..."
I'm taking Kaorin out of the Astronomy Club, her mother thought, and I'm putting her into therapy.
