I see.

Why don't you like him, Yuji? Did he do something?

[eyescar]

He's a jerk.

[ Scowling. Negative!! Only negative CR Yuji has!! ]

[gimu]

He is a jerk.

[ can’t deny simple truths. ]

[picky]

So he has a bad personality...

[ She guesses? ]

What does he look like?

[gimu]

Annoyingly handsome. [ possibly at the exact same time yuji speaks. ]

[eyescar]

Like a Dorito -

[ WAIT ]

Huh? What? Handsome? Choso!

[gimu]

What?

[picky]

[ Marcille's eyes go wide, her ears lift, and a wash of pink rises over her cheeks. She gasps loudly.

He does not know what he just unlocked. ]

Choso... Is he your type?!

[ Her eyes are unfortunately sparkling. ]

[eyescar]

[ The brotherly curse of being into Fushiguros. ]

Only in his face, right? Because his personality sucks, Choso!

[gimu]

[ choso Thinks about it. he thinks about their supremely short-lived fight, the deadly ease with which Fushiguro Toji conducted himself. his personality… was not something choso could really speak to yet, either.


what could he speak to, though? ]

He has an excellent body.

[picky]

[ Marcille CLAPS HER HAND OVER HER MOUTH ]

[eyescar]

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?

[ The dawning horror…!!! ]

[gimu]

[ the shift in yuji’s tone and volume is puzzling, but not out of place considering the topic was Toji. choso seems unruffled. ]

He used it to subdue me. [ in a spar. ] I learned many things that day. [ like how great the chasm lay between their individual strengths ].

1/2

[eyescar]

[ This is truly a Bad Day in Yuji’s life— ]

[eyescar]

Forget the hot springs. Sorry, Marcille-san. I need to go kill Fushiguro-san.

[ The role reversal here is something real and special to behold. ]

[picky]

W-Wait, wait, wait!

[ She waves her hand at Yuji and then just makes this face at Choso. ]

Choso... Where exactly did this happen?

[gimu]

Eh?

[ he’s stopped mostly because yuji has, still holding onto the lad’s hand, blinking at the two of them nonplussed. ]

In the training room. Why?

[eyescar]

[ ……….. ]

Wait. You just fought him? Like a spar?

[picky]

Oh, thank goodness.

[ Marcille doesn't collapse, but she does press her hand over her heart and sigh. Choso's maidenhood is still intact. ]

[gimu]

[ his brow sort of beetles up, perhaps in sympathy for these high-strung shorties. ]

Yes. I wanted to witness his Heavenly Restriction myself, and he accepted my challenge.

[eyescar]

So it’s like that… It was just a fight?

[ What a relief… ]

I guess I’ll leave Fushiguro-san alone today then.

[picky]

Be more specific next time! You gave us both the wrong idea!

[gimu]

I understand. [ does he… ]

What idea did you take instead?

[eyescar]

Don’t worry about it, aniki.

[ A squeeze of his hand and sweet relief. ]

Lets go see the cats.

[picky]

[ Marcille goes right behind Choso and gently pushes him along! ]

I agree! Let's go see the cats!
