Bernard Black and Itoshiki Nozomu are each other's perfect match, CHANGE MY MIND.

Here I am once again with a couple nobody has ever written anything about- and this time, I understand. Please allow me to take you on a thought experiment. What if Zetsubou-sensei was in dreary old London to improve on his English and English-teaching skills? And what if he just happened to be lodging near Black Books, and popped in every now and then to get new literature? Bernard would fall for him harder than a pebble kicked off the cliffs of Dover, that's what. Follow me for shenanigans, a deep sense of despair, and laughing through the pain. I had way too much fun with this. They are adorable.
