Eri said drinks would be on him. Emi said she wanted a bottle or something. Of the three Hoshimi sisters, Rie was the only one who ever reciprocated his free offers, but... that was fine. Hiruko would not fault the younger two for their rejections, nor would it change his attitude toward them. "Sounds like I'm opening the bar. I'll get you all access to the shop as well, while I'm still here. You know the tab~" he said jovially. With that exchange out of the way, his final words of address were for Rie specifically. "Not sure when you were last in Osaka, but there's a shop you'll like just southwest of here. Have a look around," was his final message. Thus concluded a meeting of murderers, torturers and espionage masters... for now.

Meanwhile, Kurusu Akira sat in his hospital bed, no less incapable than he'd been the day before. This afternoon, he'd already received one visitor: the very same lad he didn't want to deal with the previous day. Upon that brown-haired girl's arrival, well... she'd hear another voice long before Akira's. "I'm not your nanny, Kira! Grab it with your teeth, mother ape-ass!" yelled the voice of a tall male with slick, parted, dark blue hair. "Ch-ch-ch-chotto matte kudaSTOP!" Akira shouted back. Chizuru's entry would have her witnessing the sudden halt of a precarious scene. The young man called Kitagawa Yuusuke was atop Akira, a stack of papers held against the injured male's face and a pen being shoved against his cheek. Yuusuke turned his head to see Chizuru, whom he didn't recognize at all. Deadpan was his expression; he wouldn't be explaining himself or his current activity. "... Ohayou gozaimasu."

Deals were made, bar tabs were open and the three female assassins were apparently being left to their own devices for a while. The man known as Hiruko was quite an interesting sort, though he only managed with one of three sisters, he never seemed upset nor did he rescind his kindness. It was one of his more likable features to the lass known as Hoshimi Emi. She knew that many wouldn't continue being nice to people who weren't obviously open to their advances, but Hiruko was a steadfast member of the male community of which there were very few in her own opinion. The store mentioned to be appreciated by the eldest of those young women would be approached soon after she changed her clothes into something more appropriate for their 'vacation'. But all that would be left for a while yet.

In the meantime, a hospital visit was becoming rather rowdy as a pair of young men were in a bit of a kerfuffle. The lad that Chizuru had come to visit was still in bed as expected without the use of both his hands and one of his legs, but his 'friend' a dark haired male was rather aggressively yelling some slightly obscene things at him. She walked into the room to witness papers being shoved into a face a man being told to grab a pen with his teeth while he yelled for reprieve and another seemingly shocked by someone else entering the room. She looked stunned for a moment and then a rather casual greeting came her way which made her face shift as she burst into laughter. "Kahahahaha!~" she managed getting herself together a few moments later. "That's too good, and way too funny. You can't go from that energetic to that calm..." she said wiping a tear away from her eye. "I suppose machines aren't the problem today, Kurusu-kun~" she said in a teasing manner. "Ichinose Chizuru, yoroshiku," she managed seemingly happily. At the same time another girl was walking back in with drinks in her hand and headphones around her ears. She had dyed orange hair and big eyes behind thick glasses. She was dressed in an oversized hooded coat, thigh highs and boots with a little skirt beneath. "You know, I sort of expected this scene," she said seemingly find this sort of discourse normal.

Slowly but surely, Yuusuke removed himself from Akira. Of course, he did take a moment to ensure that pen was sufficiently shoved into the other male's mouth. Chizuru received a bow of greeting, despite her reaction to the comical scene she'd just walked into. Yuusuke thought it would only be respectful to acknowledge her properly; she wasn't the one being a dumbass here. Besides that, her introduction let him assume she was the very same girl who typed Akira's texts the previous day. "Kitagawa Yuusuke. You're the girl from yesterday? Thank you for taking care of this idiot," he said, deepening his bow.

Another of their friend group appeared as well. She knew that recent occurrence was entirely normal for them ─ particularly between Yuusuke and Akira. Yuusuke shrugged and scoffed. "I'm not doing his homework for him! It's time for dumbass to man-up, and he can start by working through those useless hands!" he said in a huff. Finally, Akira himself had something to say after spitting out that pen. "Ack! That was way beyond unnecessary. Futan, Ichinon... tasukete," he pleaded.

Kitagawa Yuusuke was the name of the man who'd been accosting Akira. He seemed to be quite the close friend, and he extracted himself from his abuse of his friend in order to introduce himself and thank Chizuru for taking care of Akira the previous day. Chizuru smiled and held up her hands in surrender. "No, it really wasn't a problem. I was just worried about him that's all. I'm glad he has close friends to check in on him too, Kitagawa-kun," she said seemingly pleased. Chizuru was still Japanese and didn't want to overstep, but she was also already interested in Akira so she would happily make friends with his friends, except for his ex-girlfriend.

What was more the other girl who showed up heard out what he had to say and shook her head. "I don't mean do his homework, but you could write down what he says. It's not that much help while he can't use his hands," said the girl with drinks in her hands. "Oh, right, I am Futaba Sakura," she added to Chizuru. "Oh right, I know you... you live down the hall from me," Chizuru mentioned. "Ichinose Chizuru," she added giving a nod. Afterwards it would be Akira finally talking, this time asking for help from the two girls as his male friend was obviously a bit abusive. "Oh? I don't know... it seems like you have a lot of help~" Chizuru teased just a bit. "Still, I could help a bit, I brought stuff to watch but if you need to finish your homework first, I am willing to help out with that..." Chizuru claimed. She'd set her bag down and move a bit closer, enough for Sakura to have a look at her whole body and give Yuusuke a wiggling set of eyebrows as she saw the girl's form and outfit choice. As a girl that whole look screamed 'look at me.'

Chizuru was just worried about Akira. One person who couldn't agree with that being enough of a reason, was Yuusuke. It seemed his aggressions were exclusively let out when the other male was a topic of conversation. Now was, once again, such a moment. "You don't need to worry about him. If he gets himself killed being stupid, he'll be doing everyone a favor!" Yuusuke insisted. One thing he refused to tolerate was Akira's dumb decisions.

On the other hand, their apparent mutual female friend thought it was a good idea to handle Akira's writing for him. "If I have to write it, it's not him doing it, is it?! See, Kira?! You're infecting these girls with your weakness!" he yelled while reaching out to grab Akira's head and force it into a bow. "Apologize for being a stupid!" Yuusuke demanded. Akira thought he would be exchanging words with Chizuru after her arrival. Instead, he was forced into an impromptu apology to both Chizuru and Sakura. "Gah! I'm sorry I was born!" was what he said while Yuusuke slapped the back of his head furiously. Yuusuke scoffed yet again, repeatedly striking the other lad. "Got Ichinose here offering to do your stupid work because you want to get your stupid ass hit by a stupid truck because of that stupid bitch! Stupid, stupid stupid!" he said as if reciting a mantra of some sort. "Aa, itai! Tasukete kudasai!"

While Yuusuke continued to berate and bludgeon his friend, Sakura stood still with drinks in her hand apparently watching all of this as if it was a perfectly normal way to go about a day. "Don't worry too much about this by the way. This is how they love each other..." she mentioned to Chizuru who could only shrug. "Must be some tough love~" she joked. This love seemed a bit tough, but who was she to get between friends? Some people needed stern hands to get through the tougher times in life, perhaps if he'd called this one instead of walking off, he'd not have found himself locked in an epic battle with Truck-chan?

Akira was being told to apologize for being stupid and instead he apologized for being born. Chizuru looked at the lad with wide eyes. He was being pummeled by his friend for no being able to write and such wasn't really conducive to helping. It seemed that Sakura agreed as she spoke again. "Look, I have hands full of drinks and I can't hold them forever so, if you could put this on hold for a while, that'd be great," she stated. "Yeah, you look like you're working up quite the thirst there. And while I agree completely with your stance on that girl... take a breather. I play a nurse from time to time, my bedside manner is top-notch~" Chizuru joked along. She joined the lad next to his bed, having set her bag down she was willing to let Yuusuke off the hook to get drinks while she looked over his homework pages. "I can definitely write these up for you... and it's no big deal to me or anything so no one has to be upset, yeah?" she offered happily. Besides, they sooner they were done with this, the quicker she could set him up to watch one of her favorite new shows.

According to Sakura, this violent behavior was how the two male friends loved each other. Akira had something to say about that. "I don't love this! Tasukete!" he shouted again. There were many cries for help, and no help immediately on the way. Maybe Akira would be put out of his misery by this abuse? One could hope; it would be better than dealing with Yuusuke much longer.

Sakura had complaints to offer. Yes, she was carrying drinks, but Yuusuke was doing some very important teaching! "I haven't even put him on life alert yet! Gimme a second!" Yuusuke insisted. Luckily for Akira, Chizuru was a savior of sorts. She made her approach and offered her assistance, prompting Yuusuke to move away from the other lad, still fuming. He did, however, take note of Sakura's expression when Chizuru moved deeper into the room. Yuusuke didn't really get the point, but he got the intention. Chizuru couldn't have actually known Akira for very long, so... what was she so concerned for? Maybe this was a prime rebound opportunity. "Hai. I can use my thumbs, but it's hard to keep holding onto a pen long enough to write. Arigatou gozaimasu," said Akira. Just then, Yuusuke had something... very blunt to say after seeing the state Chizuru appeared in, and of course Sakura's gesture. "... Are you two gonna fuck?" he asked, causing Akira to enter a fit of coughing after choking on his own saliva.

More laughter would end up coming from Chizuru. If nothing else, the rapport between Akira and Yuusuke was something worth witnessing. Was their relationship violent? Yes, but it was also still friendly by Chizuru's own approximation. She wouldn't be the one to immediately save him, it seemed Sakura would be starting the process something it seemed like she was quite familiar with doing. "I mean that's still extreme, Yuu," Sakura mentioned. Of course, she knew that those two were always going to interact the way they did. Still, it was much to Chizuru's credit that she managed to step in and actually do some saving. That girl was brave by Sakura's approximation, maybe a bit forward, given her own attire but there was no problem with that so long as it wasn't the falsehood that someone like Mami implemented.

Interestingly enough, it seemed that saving Akira was more or less a matter of putting distance between him and his friend, which Chizuru did with a bit of humor as she tended to do. Still, she offered to help the lad with his work and would be taking the papers into her hands to begin writing up what he wanted to say. He explained exactly why he couldn't do this particular work and she understood. "Hai hai, it really isn't a problem. I've said it already~" Chizuru mentioned happily. Of course, the lad known as Yuusuke had a very abrupt question to ask after having a look at her outfit, and how would Chizuru answer his question? Well as she always would, with a joke which may or may not have been the exact truth. All while she was initially aiming to rub the lad's back to help him get over his choking fit."That's the plan. It's a work in progress." she said seemingly seriously. "Of course, I wasn't going for submissive and breedable," she said with dramatic pause while looking to Sakura to give a wink playfully of course. "More like... if you're throwing I'm catching. Hope I didn't miss the mark~" Chizuru joked. of course, she was totally serious about pursuing her interests in Akira she was just willing to give him a chance to get over the issues he was likely still having. "Bwahahaha!~" Sakura immediately covered a giant smile and stifled her own laughter with a covered fist. This girl was actually funny.

Finally, Akira could get some help actually completing his coursework while hospitalized. Yuusuke was never going to be properly useful in that regard, and it didn't even matter if Akira was injured; he'd have found some excuse to turn it into an angry lecture instead. Chizuru, on the other hand, had some sympathy. Ah, but she had something else: a strange ability to proverbially bounce off Yuusuke's ridiculous antics. The blue-haired male asked if they were going to be sexually involved with one another. Akira's reaction was clear, but Chiziru's was... another joke that wasn't much of a joke at all. "More work than it's worth, probably," Yuusuke muttered flippantly.

With that, Yuusuke stepped closer to the bed. He leaned forward, taking in the expression on Chizuru's face. She didn't seem like another Mami. According to her, she intended to go for the 'submissive and breedable' look, but instead sought to make her availability clear. By Yuusuke's approximation, she'd done more than enough in that regard. He may have even called it closer to submissive and breedable than what she aimed for. "Hmm. Bussy," he observed nonchalantly. Quickly did a thumbs-up gesture accompany the most serious expression sent Chizuru's way. "Make him have to stay hospitalized for an extra month. Ganbareyo!" he said before turning around, grabbing two cans from Sakura. He opened one for himself, and threw the other at Akira's face. "Gah!" Akira exclaimed yet again. "Urusai, boke! Next time I see Ichinose, she better be walking like you, or I'll make sure you never walk again!" And with that, Yuusuke fully intended to gulp down an entire soft drink in one bout. "We should get going before Kira pisses me off with more stupid," he said to Sakura.

More work than it was worth? Chizuru didn't believe that, "Iia, some things are worth working at~" she chimed. Her own desires in this case weren't to be denied. Still, bouncing off the words of others was something she was very good at. It seemed that her own oddities were quite acceptable if the laughter of Sakura and the subsequent appraisal of Yuusuke were to be taken at face value. Moreover, Yuusuke, gave a slang term which let her know what her outfit gave the impression of... "A little strong but that's totally me~" she said giving back that thumbs up. It seemed she'd gained some form of approval which was good for making sure she didn't have a bad time with her pursuit. It was always good to have friends on your side when you were trying to get in with someone.

Beyond this, it seemed that there were words of encouragement. She should make sure he stayed hospitalized. She gave a playful salute accompanied by a terse face, "Aye, sir!~" she joked almost continuously. Whether she succeeded on keeping the boy in the hospital or not wasn't important, she'd be putting in a good effort to make sure he fully understood the kind of offer she was placing on the table. While she did this, Sakura was finally relieved of her burden and once she only had her can in a hand she opened it and began to sip. "You might be a bit much but it's definitely honestly funny. I haven't laughed like that in ages~" she mentioned as Yuusuke threw a soda at Akira. It was like that man intended to harm his friend into becoming a new person. Even so, Chizuru would be helping him with that can by moving it until it settled while Yuusuke finished his in a single go. Chizuru didn't miss the advice he gave his friend either... maybe he was surrounded by people who knew the kind of person his previous girlfriend was, and he truly was a bit too smitten to get the message. Well, that'd be worth thinking about with her new approach. As for Sakura and Yuusuke potentially leaving, "Yes, that's probably for the best, besides he's in good hands," Sakura was fairly certain about that. She had a pretty good ability to read people. "Hope you two have a good day if you're leaving. See ya' around~" Chizuru offered the pair who'd leave whenever Yuusuke decided to, and with that her attention would return properly to Akira whom she'd be helping with his homework.

Without much additional fuss, Yuusuke was content to take his leave of the hospital. Chizuru had a plan, and he wouldn't be getting in the way of anything that kept Akira from that toxic, manipulative slut bucket who landed him in this situation. "Alright, Bussy lady and Boke boy. Ja," he said. Once Yuusuke and Sakura were on their way, Akira released the deepest sigh of relief. He didn't even have it in him to blush over the conversation that just happened right in front of him; it was all too ridiculous to process. "This is why... I didn't want to have him bring my stuff."

Whatever the case, everything had been done already. Akira could finally relax without being assaulted by his own friend. Since Chizuru was here now, he could even take the time to enjoy some anime per her recommendations. He had a bit of schoolwork to do as well, but there was no real rush. "Arigatou, Ichinon. I don't really need to do that work right now or anything. I won't even be back to school for a week or two, probably. What DVDs did you bring to start with?" he wondered, trying his best to sit up just a bit. In doing so, his eyes wandered slightly. What was the point of bringing something for warmth if she was also going to be wearing shorts that revealed so much... creamy, succulent... skin? "Ahem. And... I told you it gets cold here. You should have probably brought something warmer."

Yuusuke and Sakura were two very interesting people. The male of that pairing seemed to be of a similar mentality to Chizuru herself, though he expressed it in a very different way. Still, he seemed content to leave the girl to begin her work and she would bid them farewell. "Ja ne~" she said happily. Still there was Akira who seemed to think his friends aggressive approach was a reason to avoid him. "Iia, he's good natured. A bit pushy but everyone needs a good pushy friend..." she said happily. "Or at least that's what I tell myself as the pushy friend~" she said jokingly.

They were moving on in conversation though, as Akira thanked her for her help but claimed he didn't need to do any homework too quickly. She nodded her own understanding knowing that he wasn't going back to school really soon, but she'd still make herself available to help him if he needed. As for what DVDs she brought there was an easy answer. "Well, I brought along Campfire Cooking and Smartphone, on the off-chance that you started one but didn't find it interesting enough~" she claimed happily. She went over to her bag and pulled out a set of DVDs and her snuggie seemingly pleased. It would seem that Akira was busy eyeing her which was right on target with what she desired for their interaction and she moved around the room, going for the tv to set up the DVD. "I brought a snuggie. No worries... besides, I was gonna climb into bed with you. I'm sure you'll keep me warm~" she teased the boy relentlessly as she set up the show dimmed the lights and grabbed her snuggie. She put his papers away for him and brought the remote for the tv over as well. All was well and she grabbed snacks for them as well as his drink and a straw to make it easier for him. "So, Campfire Cooking, snacks? I chose things that didn't require a lot of hand stuff, pocky and stuff~" she said seemingly pleased with this set up for an early 'date' between them.

Akira's relaxation was not a guarantee. He'd no longer be at the receiving end of abuse now that Yuusuke wasn't in the vicinity, but he would instead be accosted by Chizuru and his own perversions. She even admitted to being the pushy friend of her own group; wonderful. What he needed right now was definitely another person to be pushy; didn't everyone? According to Chizuru herself... yes. "Yare yare," Akira sighed.

Regarding the shows Chizuru brought for his watching pleasure, she listed two things they'd previously discussed. Akira was fine with seeing either of those, at least conceptually. The one called Campfire Cooking was such a strange concept, he could be nothing but interested in seeing how it went. Of course, he'd first have to deal with seeing the result of short shorts on Chizuru's body as she inserted the first DVD. She claimed to have a 'snuggie', but she could have accomplished warmth by merely wearing real pants. Ah, but that was not her intention. Her intention was to get a rise out of the lad, and apparently... to share his hospital bed? "Well sure, but you still could have... wait, you what?" It seemed Akira let himself be distracted enough from the view to lose track of Chizuru's words for a moment. By the time he registered them, however, she was already settling in to prepare snacks and the like. Lights were dimmed and all, so Akira supposed there was no avoiding Chizuru actually sliding into his bed. "I uh... Yeah, sure. I guess it would be kind of weird to watch a show with lots of food in it without having something to eat. Hospital food is terrible too, so... double win?" he said in an effort to keep his own mood jovial.

Was Akira at Chizuru's mercy and the mercy of his own body? Yes. Was that a problem? No. As far as Chizuru was concerned this was the best possible outcome. She wasn't abusive as a pushy friend and instead simply wanted her friends to make good choices. She was here to have fun, specifically with the guy she'd been waiting on the chance to hang out with. Sure the overall circumstances weren't ideal, but they could make the best of them. Whatever the case, it was obvious that Akira was at least seeing her, which boded well for her plans over all, but perhaps he was proving to not be capable of balancing multiple thoughts at the same time, as he soon made it obvious that he hadn't initially processed her desire to slip into his hospital bed. "Oh? Gotta be quicker than that, Kurusu-kun~" Chizuru teased.

If the lad had any intention of keeping the girl out of his bed, he would have had to have been much firmer about it. Given her own thoughts on the matter, she thought it was simply the most optimal way to kick her plan off properly. She could show herself off a bit, be nurturing and get to re-watch one of her current favorite series. There was no losing. And what was more, a jovial mood seemed to be what Akira was after as well. "Definitely a double win. Hospital food is crazy bad... " she confirmed. Of course, knowing that he didn't like the food, perhaps she'd add to her list of things to do, bringing him a bento. Or maybe even the show they were about to watch would give her some ideas about what he might like to eat. Pocky, his drink, some chips and a few kinds of candy. She then slipped into her snuggie and approached the left side of the lad's bed with a remote in hands. "Okay, we are about to have the best time! This show is awesome!~" she said genuinely excited to be watching this particular anime again. Once everything was within arms reach she'd slide her body into his bed gently next to him aiming to avoid any discomfort given his own less than functional limbs and once she was sure they were both settled, she'd open a few snacks and begin the show.

True enough, Akira was a bit slow on the uptake when it came to halting Chizuru's advances. On the other hand, it wasn't like he was opposed to them either. It seemed wholly inappropriate, but at the same time... Akira was called a pervert for many reasons. "Ehe, yeah... next time," he said almost bashfully. Well, there was nothing to complain about currently besides his entire life situation. Chizuru had even more going for her currently than the usual 'girl next door' look she sported; Akira was taking it all in while he figured she wasn't looking. Once that time passed, an agreement about the terror of hospital food was made. "Bad doesn't even do it justice. I thought the green jello was a meme from the Paleozoic era, but it's real!" he complained. If nothing else, Akira could do with a bit of banter.

Regardless of the terrible food they'd been feeding him this past 24 hours, Akira could at least imagine something properly tasty... besides Chizuru's legs; that one would be shoved deep into his mind. Chips would be a good idea, though. He retained just enough ability to move for a reach toward one chip bag. Even with that ability, however, there wasn't enough strength in either of his arms to open the thing. "Ano..." the lad muttered while Chizuru settled next to him. Strangely, there was no bother. He expected her entry to involve a painful adjustment or two, but she was surprisingly light and light of movement. "Could you? Also, how much do you weigh? I mean... I didn't even feel you crawl in. . ."

Chizuru would have left the boy in the hospital alone if it was actually what he wanted, but she figured it might not have been that simple. Given that, she could easily keep joking with him while using said jokes to make her intentions very clear. "I don't know... that doesn't sound too firm. I might end up taking it as an invitation~" she kept up her wording but that really didn't matter. Now they were talking about bad hospital food and an ancient meme about green jello. "No. Really green, what flavor is green jello even?" she asked truly having no idea what it was supposed to taste like but figuring it wouldn't be anything that made sense to anyone who had never partaken of such a thing.

Whatever Akira was thinking of, she assumed it was at least partly something she would have enjoyed. Instead he was soon grabbing a bag of chips and though he could pick it up without apparently hurting himself he couldn't open them with the strength he had remaining in his arms. "Need some help... gotcha covered~" she said reaching over to pull the sides of the bag. She assumed he'd be mostly fine given the lightness of the food choices in general, but there was a bit more to say. He wanted to know how much she weighed, apparently he'd not felt her slide into bed with him. She laughed, "You could have not prefaced that at all and I'd still have answered~" she offered honestly. "According to my weight check-in at the gym, I'm about 54 kilograms. Also I'm 162 centimeters tall," she offered with a smile, she couldn't help another joke though. "Did you want my triple sizes or are you saving that one?~" she teased as she handed him back his chips with a playful wink. Chizuru didn't mind sharing such information, especially not with a guy she obviously liked. Perhaps having the information and knowing the exactness of her frame could be useful to him later.

Akira couldn't ever be so firm about a rejection; not when he didn't mean it at all. He knew any 'no' that came from him would only be one he was 'supposed' to give... though it wasn't like he had any standing commitments to bring that about either. A bit of hope remained, though. Maybe Mami simply made a mistake? That was always possible... but he couldn't let himself start thinking about that now. No, that would be rude... much like the existence of green jello. "I don't even know what it's supposed to taste like. It's just... green flavored? It really tastes like it's made for sick people who can't taste anything. Like, 'hey, it doesn't matter what this is. He'll be dead tomorrow anyway!' or something," Akira ranted.

With Chizuru's help, Akira could enjoy a bag of chips. This would become the first taste of something real he'd gotten since getting here. Sadly, he wouldn't even be able to enjoy the first chip before something else ridiculous happened. His question about Chizuru's weight was more on the rhetorical side, but she answered earnestly without hesitation. Moreover, there was mention of her height, and... a question. Did he want to know her other measurements? The truth was a resounding yes, and is face belied every fiber of that answer. Akira couldn't help himself. His eyes darted over and scanned the young woman fully at lightning speed. He had to know! "Well... I wasn't wondering, but if you want me to know, I uh... guess that's fine," he deflected.

The kinds of thoughts that Akira was suppressing were the exact kind of thoughts that Chizuru was here to erase. Perhaps it would be a bit like building his self-esteem, he was worth more... even if he didn't realize it yet. Regardless so long as he could remain in the moment, it wouldn't end up being anything resembling a problem for Chizuru. In fact, she found herself laughing at his rant about the nature of green jello, why it was served and what it actually tasted like. "No, not like green! Hmahahaha~" she said not able to keep the laughter out of her voice for very long. It was nice, confirming this young man's sense of humor worked well with her own. In addition if his current situation wasn't what it was currently, he'd likely be a riot to hang out with in general.

Still, as Akira had his first taste of real food, he was being treated to the outlandish antics of Ichinose Chizuru. In this case, he was teased with her weight and height and then offered more information like her triple measurements. She was sitting right beside him this time, and saw him look at her. She saw his eyes processing her visually trying to think past that initial thought and also trying not to seem to excited about the prospect. Even so, she couldn't have been any more pleased than she was currently, this was all part of the plan. Get him interested, keep him interested... and lock him in. She was even willing to ignore his deflection and only lightly acknowledge it, "Oh, well since you're willing to accept the information... I guess it's cool to share... 86-60-90," she offered that information. "Not exactly perfect, but I don't think I'm doing too bad... also E," she added at the end, as one of those numbers needed a bit more context to get to the right understanding. Though she dressed down for classes, she definitely had a great figure, which she fully acknowledged and worked to keep. Even if she couldn't make her rear any smaller than it currently was... she didn't see it as too much of a problem. Her ratios weren't perfect, but still good and she was willing to leave the lad to his own devices to think over her figure which was quite hard to deny.

Whatever 'green' was as a flavor, Akira never wanted it again ─ and he'd only been exposed to it for a day. He expected a hospital to offer food options that focused on health, and nothing but health. This, however, was ridiculous. What were the health benefits of a green semisolid with no discernable flavor? Perhaps he'd never know. Actually... he didn't want to know. He wanted to keep far, far away from that gross stuff.

The same couldn't be said of Ichinose Chizuru. Regardless of his behavior, Akira's mind said he should be getting uncomfortably close. Only social norms kept him from doing so right away, but his now former girlfriend could attest to the matter of passing time and unleashed degeneracy. Chizuru was quite comfortable sharing her measurements, including her cup size. Akira's eyes were acting up again. He scanned the girl's body, or at least the shape of it through the blanket, as if assigning those numbers to her curves. Perversions were active at all times in Akira's mind. "Holy shi─" he muttered under his breath before a sudden halt and throat clearing. "That's uh... great, yeah. That's cool. Maybe I don't believe you, but that's cool," he said with a slightly averted gaze. He definitely believed her.

Green as a flavor and all other oddities aside, Akira was still a man and Chizuru was a very odd woman. Prone to throwing herself headlong into things, she'd already decided it was well past time for her to go for what she was after, but she wasn't uncaring enough to be manipulative about it. No. It was simply her intention to use what nature gave her to... coax the lad into being his normal self around her, so that she could accept him as he was and become closer to him in the process. And given his initial almost swearing reaction to her figure she was sure he definitely understood the goodness of her physical form. "Ara? A little louder next time, I didn't hear that first part~" she teased him relentlessly. Of course, his ending words were that it was cool but maybe he didn't believe her. "Really? Well, I would hate to not provide enough evidence for you~" she claimed. How would she go about proving her claims? Well she'd sit up. "Obviously you didn't get enough of a look before~" she claimed removing her snuggie and shifting herself around just a little bit again not enough to properly disturb the lad, but just enough to fully reveal that curvaceous form of hers in that little half sweatshirt and short shorts. Even sitting forward just a bit to reach for the remote that had been placed near her own feet to show off the roundness of her rear before settling back in. "Yeah that seems like enough, Campfire Cooking?" she asked as she settled back in beside him with a mischievous grin on her face. They would be in for quite the marathon. He could have his chips, she would have her snacks and they could begin a show about a guy being ported to a different world with a very limited but very interesting power.

In the meantime, Saori and Kazuhiko were reaching a different sort of climax which had the young teacher slamming her hips back into the lad on her hands and knees with her back arched. Her movements seemed to be rather rushed, her face was flushed and small hiccupping moans continued to escape her. She had no idea what caused her to make this decision today but she knew even if it annoyed her to not have a logical reason to do so, she was enjoying herself beyond all reason. Positional changes were ones she got to try outside of her experience with the Sex Devil so it was definitely worth the experience regardless of anything else.

If Akira had known being hit by a truck would show him a curvaceous woman, he probably would have died in a car accident years ago. Lo and behold, the end result of a half-joke offered to Chizuru was... a showcase. She knew he was appraising her body and its measurements, and she was content to abuse that fact. The way she moved after sitting up showed a thousand potentials of her every curve, and indeed confirmed those measurements with irrefutable evidence... almost. Akira's mind went through the process of stripping the girl in his imagination. He thought those movements would have been much better in a different ensemble, or nothing at all. Well... he definitely couldn't say any of that. Befuddled by Chizuru's brazenness, he could hardly string words together by the time she settled. "Yep... Campfire Cooking..." was all he managed. Today wouldn't be the first time Akira was erect for an entire anime marathon, but it would be the first time anyone else was around for it... and the first time he was watching something non-pornographic throughout the process.

Meanwhile, Kazuhiko remained equally attentive to the roundness of a woman's ass. In his case, however, he was already successful in doing so in a sexual manner. Saori had been taking his every thrust in stride for quite some time now, even after the eventual transition into Kazu thrusting deep into her abdominal region from behind. He had one hand holding her by the hair, and one grasping her ankle while his body curved back for enhanced forward momentum of his hips. Every thrust caused a collision of bodies and the subsequent ripple of Saori's rear, much to Kazu's viewing pleasure. Damned be the fact that the immediate area and Saori's lower body were covered in jizz by now, and damned be the thought that she'd probably been impregnated ages ago. He was still raring to go, and it seemed she was too. "Sugoi! You're still going? What do you want next?" he asked.

Campfire Cooking was on the menu but as far as Chizuru was concerned she was included on any potential menu. A girl like his ex-girlfriend was easy to read and Chizuru wasn't a tease to the point of being dishonest about what she was looking for. Chizuru was interested and she would throw herself into whatever interested her, cosplay, anime, manga, hentai video games... and Kurusu Akira. She'd been waiting already and while she'd offered patience, that didn't mean she intended to let him off the hook to be caught up by that same girl again. No... she'd flood him with images of her and reel him in. And with that their show would begin and she'd settle in with snacks as well to watch the show, acutely aware of his arousal.

Moving on from that, Saori was having a good time as well, her hips moving back and being quite frankly roughed up a bit more than normal. Her hips were moving back against the plunges offered by Kazuhiko. He seemed very interested in her retained ability and she moaned happily and offered him a bit of truth... slightly lacking in her usual rough attitude as she considered what she wanted to do next. "Being honest here... I never really thought it would get this far. I didn't think past the initial positions I tried. I need a minute to think..." she admitted. The sex life of a hot fit teacher was actually rather bland when she was a human, now she'd been doing a whole lot of interesting things. Even just this experience itself was one of those forbidden things on her bucket list that she never thought would be a thing to happen. Maybe that was why she ended up in this position in the first place, after deciding to go for things on her bucket list they'd been falling back into her thought processes. And then she orgasmed her body clinching around the lad as he plunged and her hips coming to a slamming halt. Something about that gave her an idea, and since she was already down, she was sure there was something she wouldn't mind trying. "I have something I want to try. Think you can manage a wheelbarrow? I skipped arms earlier." she said as if that was a reasonable thing to think about, in truth it would be good exercise and everything about sex this engaging was a exercise, battle and... adventure.

Saori had quite a bit to say about her continued deviance. She needed a minute; that was perfectly fine. "Hai hai, sensei~" he said teasingly. Kazu would give the woman all the time she wanted ─ especially as more time only meant he could keep slamming himself against her backside in the interim. And so, he did exactly that until Saori spoke again. She raised the idea of a wheelbarrow position, bringing up arms day as a missing part of her recent workout regimen.

Despite his extensive experience, Kazu had never been much of a deviant. He had to think for a minute about what a wheelbarrow would entail. Logically, there were a few potential variants... but one stood out among them. "I think I did something like that earlier. Let's see..." he mused. In a matter of moments, Kazu was standing again. His hands each grasped one of Saori's upper thighs, lifting her lower half up to keep their connection strong. Time would pass once more, seeing Kazu expel himself within Saori at least two additional times. During that time, the Iino family meeting would reach its end with Miko's parents escorting her back from an impromptu park outing. "I think we should definitely visit Osaka more often. It doesn't seem like much of anything at a glance, but there are some nice sights and great food," Sosuke stated as they walked the open street.

The teasing use of sensei bothered Saori on a spiritual level. It wasn't a negative bothering but it still pressed a certain button in her brain. Aggression was not lost on this particular young woman and she was already making a strange decision and their continued 'student/teacher' relationship was far from truly odd at this point. "Brat." she mumbled just the same she eventually came up with a position she'd like to try and it was executed by the lad after a bit of thought. She wondered what that innocence was, but he claimed he'd tried something like it. That wasn't very surprising considering the smallness of at least one of his conquest. Not really important though, as he actually managed the position well, and she held up her upper body until her arms burned a bit through continuous orgams of which there were two. "Worth it," she said after the second one. She was admittedly quite pleased even as a certain burning set into her shoulders and back.

Of course, while all of this was happening the Iino family had split apart for a trip to a park and some quiet conversation. Miko for her part in this was walking along with her parents happily between them as they walked. "You're right. It's quite a busy place, despite seeming a bit empty at a glance," mentioned Risa. Miko herself could only agree, this place had been rather interesting since she arrived. "I agree. It looks like there are a lot of places to eat and hang out here. I had some udon the other day from one of the small places and it was great. There was also one of those school festival booths set up. Lot of little things around worth seeing and doing," Miko agreed with her parents. Just the same and knowing they were on their way back she had texted Kaguya. We're on our way there. O_O Please make sure people have on clothes. >.< I can't handle any more interrogations today. D: I'll die x.x the girl sent a rather emoji heavy text to Kaguya who read it, chuckled and stood. Always would she do as asked by Miko so she easily went to let everyone know the important news. "Oi oi, I hope you're at a good break point. Mi-chan's on her way back with her parents and she's in full panic mode already~" she said after tapping on the door which held Kzuhiko and Saori.

Sadly, this new position would not be something Kazuhiko and Saori carried into unknown amounts of time. Lately, he dove into these things and spent hours upon hours just going, going and going. Little did he know, this one wouldn't be allowed its natural end. He did manage a couple of 'rounds' while holding up Saori's lower half. It was quite fun to deal with an older woman far more physically inclined than anyone else he knew, and with an attitude that took the forefront of her personality to boot.

As he thrusted with what seemed like reckless abandon, the voice of Kaguya entered the room and the barrier within. Miko was returning, and so were her parents. What a shame. Kazu had been hoping the girl's return would be another opportunity, but... sadly it wasn't to be. "Ugh! I'm nowhere near done!" Kazu complained. He supposed it was in his best interest to wrap things up. There was one certain way to do that, the lad thought. "Trust me, Mary?" he asked. Regardless of her answer, he'd be shifting both hands toward her midriff for a quick lift. To end this round, Kazu would be leaning back, each of Saori's wrists held as he knocked her upward with each thrust ─ only to help gravity by pulling down on her wrists. Such a position would easily let him build toward the final moment, but it would not be how things ended in his ideal scenario. "Since we're making all sorts of allowances today, how about one more picture to mark the occasion?"

The knock at the door was about what was expected. The idea of Miko's parents stopping by for a visit wasn't something Saori would have assumed, but the girl had mentioned being an only child, having involved parents was pretty normal in those sorts of situations. This was especially true when she considered how skittish the young girl had been when she'd first come back to this world. Of course, clothing would be on the list for Saori, after all of this, but not right now. His utterance was heard by Kaguya but she wasn't easily dissuaded, she was already used to managing a strange few personalities. "Hai hai, make sure to actually get dressed~" Kaguya teased before walking back up front. She wouldn't care about getting too dressed, but she also didn't know what time the concert Miko wanted to attend was going to be. She supposed she could at least pick out a few articles.

At the same time, Saori was being asked about trust. "Yeah, I trust you..." she mentioned. She thought that went without saying. After all, she'd not actually attacked him when he'd first showed up, and he was currently buried in her insides. If those things didn't claim trust she didn't know what did. And lo, her trust would be rewarded with a change in position which was quite different to what she'd started off with. Her eyes widened and her tongue fell out of her mouth as she moaned. That was a rather intense change and she could do nothing but continue moving her hips with her legs wrapped around the boy in question. She was rapidly approaching orgasm and once she did, she'd tighten around his dick once more before speaking on his request. "Yeah, one more picture... I still don't understand this need to commemorate bad behavior, never did," she said. Of course, she had a roommate in college that was prone to such things, but... that was a different story. For now, they could continue and he could get his picture before they got dressed to face the young Iino Miko's parents.

Saori expressed her trust ─ not that it mattered. Kazu was lifting her regardless, and upon doing so, he was subjected to a leg-lock from the physically intimidating and unusually arousing limbs of Saori. As they carried on, the buildup toward ejaculation was quick for Kazu. He thrusted and thrusted, leaking into Saori's womb all the while. Roughly five minutes passed after Saori agreed to another photo, and then... the grunting of Kazuhiko stopped. He pulled the woman up by her waist, ejecting himself at the cost of unplugging the dam of ejaculate in the process. Oh well; there was more where that came from. "No time to explain; be mad later if you're going to~" he warned.

What was Kazu's intention? Well, he'd first be lowering Saori onto her knees. They hadn't exactly toyed around with foreplay, so there was something he didn't know... but also something he had to try. As such, after snatching his phone off the floor, he'd be stroking himself to completion until that fountain of mana sprayed over Saori's face and body. Kazu would only hope that magical effect still held strong, or that Saori had other interest they'd yet to explore together. Whatever the case, she had mere moments to make her own decision before Kazu took a new type of photo he'd become quite interested in as of today ─ one that included his dripping dick over the face of recently marked... territory, in a manner of speaking.

Saori was in for a host of new experiences today. In truth that was fine, a little adventure was fine with her. Here and now she'd have her orgasm and then be lowered to the floor before an act of completion on the side of Kazuhiko. The lad claimed he had no time to explain, even as ejaculate poured out of her womb and down her legs, a first time event certainly. What was more he grabbed his phone and commenced stroking himself to completion and spraying over her face and body. She closed her eyes initially but soon opened them looking up the lad's body and at the dripping cock over her face. She was red faced and there was some sort of aggression left within her but it wasn't anything truly negative. "Hm, that's weird. I don't know how I feel about that..." she managed, licking her her lips for just a moment after realizing what was on her face actually tasted like almonds. "That's so fucking weird." she mentioned. That was all. She needed to shower and to get cleaned up and make some considerations about her life choices. But... she wasn't mad.

Meanwhile, one Nara Rita had spent some time with her family and gotten her mind back into a good place. In the time since suggesting a nice park for the family to visit she'd gone back to the home she shared with her 'husband' but sharing it wasn't going to be something that continued. No. She'd already gotten people to put furniture into the apartment over her store and now she was backing up luggage with clothes and other things that movers were taking over to her apartment. She'd left everything of his within that building and was now only taking out her cameras and equipment that she'd been letting gather dust. She'd carry that one with her while she checked the house for other pieces which belonged to her. The only thing she'd left, was... the notice of her filing for divorce on the kitchen counter. She seemed to be quite happy, thinking of all the things she'd have the freedom to do now that their finances weren't interconnected she could get her life together. If one looked at this house now, it was obvious that only one person lived here... but that was fine as well.

And so, there was an absolute victory so long as Kazu ignored the fact that he could have kept going. For an ending, however, this was the ultimate. He had his conquest photo... and a busy finger that also caught Saori licking her lips, and everything between. One particular shot of her closed eyes and painted face was going into a very special spot in the lineup. Ah, and there were seemingly no repercussions. Saori called the event weird, but that was all. "That... was awesome!" he countered. "That's a shame, though. I wanted to try some crazy upside-down stuff. Next time?" the lad asked, a cheeky wink sent Saori's direction as he cleaned himself off magically. That erection still hadn't gone anywhere... except right into the living room, where he'd proceed to get dressed while acknowledging Kaguya. "I heard a voice and thought someone was coming to join. Bummer," he said.

Meanwhile, Rita would not be alone at that apartment over the convenience store. Of course Hiroshi was still down in the store itself, running operations as he had been since being hired. He wasn't the only one, though. There were a dozen or so customers present, including... two who weren't exactly customers. Among those two was Kusanagi, who purchased four meat buns before casually making his way upstairs through the back. In due time, he'd be entering Rita's apartment with his companion ─ doing so whether it was locked or not. "Nara-ya should be here. It's going to be fun," he mused.

Cheeky speech came from Kazuhiko as he decided his photo-shoot was awesome. Well, it was his phone and his pictures so Saori wasn't technically in any way going to debate. Of course, she'd been quite serious with her original terms. "I told you my conditions when we started." was all Saori said. She was clear on her desires to not engage in such antics more than once. She was a responsible human being most of the time. Crazy upside down stuff did sound kind of interesting but she wasn't about to just jump into making promises like that. Cheeky wink and the rest be damned. She did need a minute and though he magically cleaned himself, she'd be grabbing a quick change and heading for the bathroom where she'd have a quick shower like the sort she got after a major workout and change into a pair of jeans and a black sweater. Meanwhile, Kazuhiko made his way outside with his erection still in full view of the general public. "Noo..." Angelica moaned quietly. Of course, some physical changes had been talking place, it seemed her hair had lost its giant ringlets and blue coloration. Her eyes also seemed to be a shade of blue green with little stars in the corners. Her face and general disposition hadn't done much changing yet, but she still seemed rather relaxed. Still his words to Kaguya had the other girl chuckling. "Oya, maybe it's a bit of a bummer, but this little intermission will be fun~" claimed Kaguya. Unlike everyone else here, she'd already seen Miko's parents and knew the standards of their looks were quite high and Kaguya's spirits were always quite high around that particular family.

Meanwhile Rita's shop was quite the busy place currently and the man who'd bought four meat buns was accompanied by a pink haired girl who'd purchased one of this shops new special ramen cups. It smelled divine and she'd definitely be having at it, but decided to put it off since they were on the job currently. "I don't know whether fun is a good thing coming from you or not," she said. This man seemed like he was about to torture some housewife with the news about her husband, but as they made their way up to the apartment, it would seem that she'd already made a few decisions. Speaking of Nara Rita she was entering the shop and seeing the number of customers currently within it. "Oi? Do you need some help? I'll come back after I put this up..." she said gesturing to her camera case. She wouldn't abandon an employee even if Hiroshi never actually seemed bothered by anything.

Once outside the bedroom, Kazu took a few moments to breathe. His magical method of cleaning involved absorbing, as he'd seen the likes of Sakura and Angelica do time and time again. It was a strange sensation made stranger still by the fact that he could still go a thousand more rounds without pause. No matter; things had to be done. Even so, he was willing to share his discontent with Kaguya, who insisted the intermission would be fun. "If you say so," he replied. Finally sporting his original clothes after some great difficulty donning pants, Kazu seated himself next to... a very different Angelica. "Huh. No more Rapunzel," was the comment he offered whilst reaching out for her hair.

Kusanagi entered the apartment, but Nara Rita was nowhere to be seen yet. What a shame. The fun would have to wait a bit longer, so he took the time to find a seat... on Rita's bed. One meat bun would be consumed while they waited. It seemed Princess wasn't sure how to feel about his use of the word 'fun' regarding this meeting. Surely she should know what to expect by now. "This is the turning point. Nara Rita makes her final decision tonight. Look around. This apartment is a second home, probably leftover from the previous shop owner. She's been moving her belongings in recently. Some things here still have the smell of cardboard boxes on them. She's moving on, and is probably already planning a divorce... but there's another twist," he said. This penultimate turning point in Rita's journey was likely to occur once she saw the hard evidence of her husband's wrongdoings. All the while, Hiroshi was preparing more ramen bowls and the like for passing customers when Rita arrived. Did he need help? Absolutely not. "Everything's fine here. No need to worry; I can handle much more than this with ease."

"Oh, I do say so~" Kaguya said. She was personally looking forward to seeing Iino Sousuke again, she always enjoyed Miko's family but her dad was a top-tier man. At the same time after watching Kazuhiko struggle with his pants, Kaguya realized the problem of being a well-endowed man in the world without magic. Someone should probably be inventing the male version of a dick bra to strap them down and keep them from being such a problem. Angelica seemed to have an answer for it though, but not to the thing mentioned by Kazuhiko. "I have no idea who Rapunzel is..." she said with absolute seriousness. "But... I have enough left to do this..." she said. She reached out with a hand and planted against the side of Kazuhiko's pants, she used magic to imbue them with a bit of extra internal space, so that he could get in and out of them without any problem. "You guys are gonna love tv. None of these magical world people know anything about media... it's crazy," Kaguya said seeming to find it interesting. She wasn't even that well versed in most things, but she liked her high fantasy things, fairytales included.

Meanwhile the ideations of Kusanagi weren't ones which made sense to a lot of people. Even so, he seemed capable of explaining what he found fun about the mental break of a housewife. All of the minor details about this apartment he'd noticed he claimed led to certain beliefs about the life of Nara Rita. "Not that I don't believe you, but there are less extreme ways to tell the same information. Still, I'm not one to interrupt someone else's fun," Princess said. She stood casually eating from a soup cup one of the best bowls of ramen she'd ever had in her life. This convenience store might become one of her favorite places just for the food. "Umai!♥~" she squealed. At the same time, Rita was walking through customers hearing the claim of Hiroshi that he could handle worse than what was happening here. "Okay, if you're sure. I'll just be upstairs though..." she claimed as she made her way into her apartment. Upon seeing two people inside it she didn't know what to think, but given the appearance of that green haired lad, she knew it probably wouldn't have mattered if she locked the door or not. "Still don't believe in normal greetings. Okay..." she said a bit of fire in those magenta eyes, she had a recent hair cut and a slightly more sarcastic attitude than the pictures Princess had seen of her. She was definitely going to leave her husband, she'd made herself look different. Control was being taken, she wasn't just moving in for fun. She'd taken everything of hers... made them essentially strangers. A smirk spread across Princess's face, good for her.

Of course Angelica didn't know who Rapunzel was; he didn't expect her to. When Kazu spoke, he did so solely as vocal observation. "Not a real person. Well... not in this world. She might be real on Alaya, but who knows?" he said, running Angelica's hair through his fingers while she apparently proved capable of expanding his pants within. Immediately, Kazu felt a comfort and freedom he didn't think he'd get again on Gaia. His own magic had undergone some drastic changes, but technical skills were still lacking. "Arigatou! Teach me how to do that one day!" he pleaded. Of course, there was also the hand upon his thigh during the whole ordeal. "And we definitely have to show you guys all the good stuff like TV. Sakura took to smartphones really qui─... oh! Wait, no way!" Kazu exclaimed, immediately darting off to find the extra phone he'd been given by Marisbury. "I gotta get some of that Clairvoyance; this is so cool!"

Meanwhile, Nara Rita finally made her way toward the apartment while Princess swooned over a cup of ramen from the convenience store below. He didn't much care for ramen, or really anything that couldn't be eaten easily on the move. Even so, it smelled as good as Princess claimed it tasted. Regardless, they were finally visited by the very woman who lived here. Rita entered her bedroom where Kusanagi sat, commenting on his lack of standard greeting. Kusanagi had nothing but the usual empty expression to offer. "Konbanwa, Nara-ya. You've got a good look in your eye now. Show me another," he said, reaching into the breast pocket of his shirt to toss a stack of images from the previous night onto the floor. "But don't take it too far, unless you changed your mind about the rape."

According to Kazuhiko there was no person called Rapunzel in this world, apparently she might exist on Alaya though. "I see," Angelica said more than willing to let that information go. Still there was more to be said about things like clothing and tv whatever that was. Kaguya seemed to think that the people from the magical world were missing out on something. Still, Kazuhiko was quite pleased by the expansion of his pants which allowed him comfort. "I will if you want... though it'd probably be easier to think about it like it's making an adjustment and not making something from nothing. And you don't have to thank me. I don't want you attracting any weird strays..." Angelica said calmly. She didn't have a lot to go off of, but considering how human men acted around her, she didn't hold out hope for non-magical human women around Kazu. She didn't know what kind of magical understanding Kazuhiko had to start with though. "I don't really understand but... it doesn't seem like we'll have much else to do..." Angelica said, and then Kazuhiko ran off looking for a smartphone claiming to want Clairvoyance. "Isn't clairvoyance contradictory to adventuring. Like you'll already know what's gonna happen, wouldn't that take the edge off?" Kaguya asked. They'd been traveling together for a few days and she felt pretty strongly from him the emotions surrounding his adventures. He didn't seem like the type who'd want to know things ahead of time.

A familiar greeting came from Kusanagi, that one had a very rude way of referring to everyone so far as she knew. Rita didn't take it personally and instead simply found herself greeting the people now in her apartment. "Konbanwa. And you..." she said watching a girl drink a cup of ramen. "Yo. This is great by the way... Oh and nice hair cut," she said of the food and Rita herself. "Thanks... I thought it might be a bit extreme," she said willing to simply accept a compliment from a girl. Ah, but pleasantries weren't to last. This particular boy enjoyed faces and as such he was obviously about to show her something jarring the pictures he dropped on the floor were ones she didn't immediately look towards. He spoke very strangely to her, but unlike most she wasn't as unnerved by him as she could have been. "I'm really going to need to know why guys keep weirdly offering me dick, maybe I need one of those... emergency meetings..." she said thinking about it. "Freaky," she murmured about that threat which loomed and about the reaction it garnered. It was more obvious after speaking to her, how much her husband fucked up in making the choice he did... this woman was something else. She bent down picking up the photos and seeing what was obviously her husband and his little floozy in a hotel room having what was probably singular round of sex. There was anger and hurt in her eyes, but she also had her face twitch in several places like she was considering all manner of violence against the pair in addition to everything else. Well this just made the divorce easier, "Seeing it pisses me off," she mentioned. "Also, if you used a larger aperture at this shutter speed you could get more detail in the shot than the zoom lens alone will give... the contrast will be a bit stronger..." she added since he seemed to like facial expressions so much. "Can I keep these? I have a thing I want to do..." she said thinking about it. She wasn't often spiteful but now she was finding herself to be both angry and curious. Did he really think she was stupid? She felt disrespected by his audacity at this point.

Angelica didn't want him attracting any... weird strays, in her words. Kazuhiko seemed confused, but that would probably make itself clear at some point. No matter; he now had something exciting to deal with. Marisbury Animusphere gave him two phones, and one had no obvious purpose before. Now however, it obviously had to be for Angelica. No other person from that magical world was here with no technology of their own. While scrambling for the smartphone, Kazu heard Kaguya's counter to the idea of Clairvoyance. "Well... yeah, that would suck. But still! If I could just use it for little stuff like this, it'd be awesome!" he said. Only a moment later, he was rushing back with that unused cellphone for Angelica. "This! This is a cellphone. It's... for communication, mostly, but a bunch of other stuff too," the lad began. For the foreseeable future, it seemed he'd be explaining phones to the blonde goddess.

Rita's haircut was extreme, though in a pleasant way. In Kusanagi's opinion, she had far less in the way of her face now. All those little ticks showed in a much better way than before. As such, Kusanagi had a slightly improved opinion of hairstyles. As for his offer and the apparent matching offer from some younger males wanting to bed her, Kusanagi had an answer he considered obvious. "Maybe it's the giant tits, or the way your face twists. It'd look great if you had something rammed inside any of your holes," he commented. Speaking of great-looking faces, Rita offered a few in quick succession, once she saw her husband in those photos. Kusanagi's face cracked just slightly ─ something of a one-sided grin appearing just at the left corner of his mouth. "Calm..." he whispered to himself. Luckily, there was a distraction in the form of advice. Rita gave a photographer's perspective on picture-taking for a clearer product, then asked if she could keep the images for a plan of hers. "Noted. Keep those; I have no use for them. I do have use for Suzuki-ya and his little slut, though. But first... what do you want to do to them?"

Weird strays was something that Angelica said that seemed to fly over the head of Kazuhiko but would be acknowledged by Kaguya with a smirk. He was already likely getting a pack of extras, weird this world strays were something that all the girls would want to keep away for various reasons if that actually happened. Regardless, it appeared there were a few caveats to Clairvoyance for Kazuhiko, he wanted it but didn't want it to affect his adventures. Instead he wanted it for small things. "Ah, I guess that'd be cool," Kaguya said with his caveats. Anything was possible if one managed Angelica however was due to learn about phones. Something she'd seen the girl known as Kaguya using to keep in contact with Iino Miko even just a few minutes ago. She paid close attention to all Kazuhiko had to say all the while Iino Miko herself was soon enough approaching this house with her parents, now carrying a messenger bag with her electronics, chargers, a few books and even her shrine visitor stamp book. She still seemed pleased enough and knew she could mostly trust Kaguya to have done what she asked. Still, the closer they got the more antsy Miko became, such was always going to be the case, life was very complicated when switching between a magical world and a mundane one.

At the same time, Rita was being given some interesting compliments and the male perspective on her form. Some unnecessarily vivid words were being used by the green haired young man but she probably wasn't wrong. "That's a lot... I get it though. That was mostly rhetorical," she said seemingly a bit abashed. Whether she fully understood her own attractiveness or not, wasn't really the issue here. She'd been married for a long enough time to forget that people looked at her. Princess could see that written all over the woman's face. There were several other things she could see written on her face soon after, and Kusanagi's face as well. That man was way too interested in the shifting of that woman's face. But she also seemed decent enough at deflecting even if it was accidental. "You keep saying that but it never looks like you feel it," Princess mentioned. It was becoming easier to notice that man's 'face' as the blonde man from earlier had stated. As for what she wanted with her soon to be former husband and the pictures she shrugged. "I said I was pissed. And right now I want to know if he thinks I'm stupid... " she said. "Evidence is good for confrontations so I was going to go back home and make sure he understands not to come anywhere near me. And he should be home from 'work' pretty soon," she offered succinctly, she'd even put quotes on work knowing the man hadn't been in months already. Princess understood in that moment what the woman was actually seeking was... closure. She'd witnessed a lot of women give up on their husbands, many fight or argue with them when they were confronted with their perversions. But fewer than those were the women who remained seething beneath the surface but dedicated to expressing themselves. 'Interesting.' Princess was beginning to understand Kusanagi's interest in this woman though not to the same extreme as him. She wondered briefly, just briefly if she'd end up trying to kill that man. Anger did a lot for violent tendencies her own included. And this woman she ralized, had energy similar to her own and in her opinion anyone who would step on someone might also kill someone under the right circumstances.

Kazu spent a few solid minutes explaining phones to Angelica, just as he'd done with Sakura before. This time, however, he had a different sort of example to give at the end. By the time Miko and her parents were approaching the house, with Iino Sosuke wondering how a full group squeezed into the building, Kazu was showing Angelica how texting worked from his own phone. How did he do it? Well, he thought it best to use that opportunity to also check on Sakura's wellbeing. "So yeah, like this," he said while pressing send on a message. It read: "Everything alright where you are? Btw I gave Ang your number. Extra phone was for her."

While the final moments of a lesson occurred on that couch, Kusanagi was keeping himself... relatively stable atop Nara Rita's bed. One could hardly call it properly stable, though, as another point of elation for him was Princess's observational ability. "Oh? You could see that?" he wondered as that grin became a bit more noticeable still. Maybe he was more interested in Princess than he thought? Time would tell. Moving on though, it seemed Rita's intention was to confront her husband and ensure he became a non-issue in her future. That alone was quite boring, but... exploitable. Kusanagi was becoming more excited by the moment, if only a bit. "Interesting. When you're done, I want to see. I'll take that in exchange for your evidence. You've got two days to settle your affairs with them before it's too late for all of you. If there's nothing else, we're done here for now," he said, finally standing in preparation to vacate the bedroom.

Kazuhiko was busy explaining the uses of phones to Angelica and even got down to text message. For Kaguya this was an interesting thing to watch, it was something so very natural to humans that it almost didn't need to be explained, but here he was... explaining a telecommunication device to someone who would have never used one before. It was... interesting. Regardless, the young woman known as Sakura was soon receiving a message she was walking along the beach having a bit of fun before heading back to that mansion. She figured she could go for a bath and a wardrobe switch before doing something interesting with her night. Even so, she looked at her phone and was smiling brightly to see who it was from. "Everything is fine here. I spent a day on the beach. I'm happy you gave Angie my number. Are you all okay?" she asked. Along with that series of questions was a smiling selfie of Sakura sent to his phone, wearing her new bikini to confirm her wellness. A deep breath was being taken by Miko as she approached the house, she was calming herself down as much as she could. She'd knock briefly and then enter. "Tadaima, brought my parents..." Miko mentioned. 'Please don't be naked.' she thought not wanting to explain anything. So imagine her immediate relief when she looked into the room and everyone was dressed and doing seemingly normal things.

Meanwhile, Rita was busy entertaining to people with less than reputable jobs within the confines of her new apartment. The pink haired girl was garnering some unusual amounts of attention for noticing the small changes in the visage of Kusanagi. Rita noticed that she seemed to cringe just a little almost choking on her soup. "Stop, looking at me like that... freak," she said immediately. In seeing this kind of interaction Rita could only chuckle. "Ganbareyo..." she offered the girl who seemed to be a bit tsundere. "You are also weird but thanks..." mentioned Princess. Still what did Kusanagi want in exchange for his help? To see... "That seems manageable. And I don't plan to let it drag out or anything," she said. In truth she didn't care of her future former husband fell off a cliff. She didn't know what Kusanagi really wanted, but she could see an amount of violence in him that wasn't at all normal. It wasn't her business what he wanted with her former husband so she could contribute without thinking too much about it. With that it seemed that this leg of their journey was ending. Princess would aim to move with Kusanagi... figuring he might want to talk after this particular moment. "Ja ne, Nee-san." Princess mentioned seeming to have a pretty good understanding of Rita's age in comparison to her own. "See you later..." she offered both as they left. She had a bit of planning to do if she was going to do what Kusanagi asked. She wasn't actually sure if he just meant seeing her or seeing his reactions, but she figured both could be fine. A couple of well placed hidden cameras could do the trick and she had a few in her case, that she used for candid shots at weddings. It would be fine. Still at the convenience store right now sas a blonde haired girl with lightly pink tips on a short cut. She had big eyes and was wearing a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. She smiled happily as she saw Hiroshi, thinking he was a good looking guy, amazingly tall and exactly the type that Akira would never measure up to. She'd be working with him even so it'd give her access. "Ano, I'm here for orientation, Nanami Mami." she said softly introducing herself to the tall man.

Shortly after showing Angelica how texting worked, Kazuhiko received a reply message from Sakura. She confirmed her wellness and then some, even including a beaming picture in the most... interesting bikini he'd ever seen. 'Nothing normal. Always nothing normal. That figures, but...' Kazu's thoughts trailed off. He couldn't actually hate that decision if he tried, strange though it was. A quick response from the lad read: "That's an awesome look on you! 10/10 would smash. Like now. Want to now." Perhaps, in due time, Kazu would taper off the constant thirst for sex he'd developed over recent centuries in the Nexus. He did seem to be slowing down... maybe. Of course, that wouldn't be easy at all with Miko an her bombshell of a mother walking into the living room, each grasping his attention in sequence. "Okae," Kazu said after a brief and unexpected pause. Why did her mother look like that? Well, Sosuke had once wondered the same. He'd now be wondering something else. "Ohayou gozaimasu. Mimi, your group is even bigger than this, isn't it? This building is unusually tiny..." he observed prior to any introductions. He did, however, see Kazuhiko very quickly. That lad was going to be worth additional attention for reasons Sosuke didn't yet know.

One other thing in need of attention was Nanami Mami, a human girl who approached Hiroshi with different intentions to other customers. Hiroshi had already prepared himself to throw another bowl of ramen together when the blonde spoke of orientation. "Sou ka. I thought you were a customer. Fukuyama Hiroshi. I was informed someone would be coming for this. Nara-san just recently went upstairs; she should be down soon. Did you want to place an order in the meantime?" Hiroshi wondered. Whether this girl wanted something or not, he'd already gotten into a groove of producing cup after cup. Either she'd want something, or he'd have something ready for the next person before switching to the register that was now accumulating a small line.

It would appear that phones were interesting devices indeed and the return message of Kazuhiko after Sakura sent her wellness picture was one which Sakura read with pure curiosity. Kazuhiko hadn't been quite this forward when she'd last spoken to him. His actions in the Nexus and the 'grounding' had to have done him quite a bit of good. She even understood the context of smash so she sent back another message. "Arigatou♥!~ I'll be sure to take advantage when it's possible though, don't worry! Both of you fully settle, and don't forget about your presents :3" she claimed in her own message. After that Sakura likely couldn't have been stopped from feeling good. She'd have to make sure to send more pictures to her spouses. Beyond that it would appear that the introduction of Miko's parents was in order and given the reaction of Kazuhiko, Kaguya couldn't help but chuckle. She saw the movements of the lad's eyes, she knew he finally understood what she'd been getting at moments ago. "I would like to take this opportunity to say I told you so♥!~" claimed Kaguya. In the meantime, Angelica listened and watched as Miko's father addressed her and this group's living situation in a purely parental way, taking note of how he spoke to her. "What? Your dad calls you Mimi? That's so cute!" Angelica noted causing a bit of bashfulness in Miko. "There are a few more people, but we aren't usually all here at the same time. Shi...." another pause occurred in Miko's speech as she realized she was about to refer to her mentor in a rather familiar way without any context as to why. "Hiroshi-san is working at the convenience store most of the time. Sakura-chan is at the beach today things like that," she murmured. Saori came out and found herself leaning against the doorway to the kitchen. "These are my parents Iino Sousuke and Iino Risa." she said finally introducing them properly. Kaguya took the opportunity to be her usual self. "Hey, Sou-jii♥!" she offered first. "Risa-ka♥~" she added soon after, knowing Miko was staring daggers at her. "Hey there cuties♥!~" Risa said after her introduction.

At the aforementioned convenience store, Hiroshi was introducing himself to a blonde and wondering if she wished to order. "No need to worry. I'll wait, and I don't need to order. I'm not in the mood for noodles." she offered all the while watching him work. Rita wouldn't be staying upstairs very long she headed down with a small bag containing the pictures and a few discrete cameras and was about to leave. When Rita Nara made an appearance, the girl's posture changed. She was quite the looker, with a nice hair cut and sharp looks. Beyond that her figure was astronomical. She hated that, but at least she wasn't a super brunette she might have walked out if that had been the case. She could at least... continue. And given the lack of focus on the tall man, it seemed there wasn't anything standing in Mami's way. "I'm on my way out again, you still okay?" she asked of Hiroshi, that little blonde girl escaping her notice as she basically seemed to be just loitering a bit.
