[ In direct contrast, she just grins. ]

You're not willing to tell me your name, and I have to call you something.

[soba]

There are a million better things you can call me other than that.

[ he is two seconds away from taking out a ruler?? but he does not. ]

Or just don't address me at all.

[dynamighty]

[ He can fight her if he really wants to. ]

Not gonna happen. Calling my future model "hey, you" isn't very professional.

[ But Freckles-kun is just fine, apparently. ]

[soba]

Most people are fine with it.

[ isn't that just how capitalism works

but he sighs. ]

Whatever. It's Kuji.

[dynamighty]

Kuji, then.

[ She accepts it easily enough.

And drops the honorific?? Okay. ]

So, are you accepting?

[soba]

[ okay........

but hm. if this is some big company... but this girl is clearly a child. ]

Show me your product.

[ he wants to know if she is

any good ]

[dynamighty]

[ And she thought Tsubomi was a tough case.

Well, this guy's playing hard to get in a different way entirely, but honestly, Erika thinks the ruder ones are a little easier to deal with than the shy and timid ones. She doesn't have to pull punches. ]

Fine by me, but you'll have to come to my school.

[soba]

They won't kick me out?

[ he does not really sound like he cares if this happens or not, but he still has to ask regardless. ]

[dynamighty]

Well, it'd be after hours, you're just going into one of the club rooms.

[ Though she thinks she could totally sneak him in as a student, but he doesn't look like the type who'd go along with it. ]

[soba]

Some school staff can be pretty anal.

[ he says this like he has had experience with this kind of thing.

because he has. ]

[dynamighty]

... Has this happened to you before or something?

[soba]

No.

[ yes.

anyway. ]

Take me to your school then.

[dynamighty]

Sure!

[ Thankfully, Erika knows better than to grab the hand of a stranger who looks like he's still debating shanking her, so she'll just jauntily take the lead. As far as she's concerned, this is still a win. ]

[soba]

[ yea good move

but he will follow after her, looking around like he's ready for something to happen at any moment?



which is a valid fear considering canons. ]

[dynamighty]

[ Wow I don't know why he would ever be concerned, it's not like--

... Just kidding, there is an explosive sound in the not-so-distant distance and Erika freezes, eyes wide. ]

What--

[soba]

[ he pauses



and then keeps walking. clearly just fucking ignoring the explosion. it's not any of his business. ]

[dynamighty]

Wait a second, wasn't that kind of super close??

[soba]

[ he just

sighs, glancing at the direction it came from. ]

I guess. Probably.

[dynamighty]

[ Erika opens her mouth-- then closes it abruptly as what looks to be an absolutely humongous soccer ball rears up from the cloud of smoke in the distance. Despite only having eyes and no mouth, this doesn't prevent it from yelling its problems in a very monotone but still ridiculously loud voice.

"I DIDN'T MAKE THE TEAM EVEN THOUGH I PRACTICED AND PRACTICED BUT THEY DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE ME A CHANCE BECAUSE I'M THE NEW KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID" ]

...

[soba]

[





he starts turning to leave again. ]

[dynamighty]

D... does this happen often, or something?

[ He seems to be more annoyed than concerned?? ]

[soba]

No. [ yes. kind of.

he just sighs. ]

You want to check it out, right.

[dynamighty]

Well, it's kind of sort of hard to ignore...

[ And also it's probably terrorizing people. ]

[soba]

[




fine they can head in that direction he guesses ]

[dynamighty]

[ Good, because she's already jogging in that direction. ]

Just wondering-- you're not secretly hiding any awesome self-defense moves, are you?
