If we're going to find out if Rin's yandere for Hisao, we NEED to do this.

[x] "S-so... y-y-you... j-joined the art c-club?"

>>23966693
Not exactly. Hanako can still function with zero stability, it's just that "Daring" dialogue choices that can potentially impact the choice of the route and tilt the situation in our favor become unavailable. In Rin's case it was much more dangerous. Having no "san" to spend could have meant death in another magical battle.

That's not really a question. The question we need to find out is how bad, and even that is only to determine how much time we have to work with before we're absolutely forced to act.

Taking a deep breath, you approach Hisao.
"Um... G-g-good morning." You greet him, trying and failing to seem natural.
He turns to you and smiles. "Morning Hanako."
"Y-y-you... j-joined the art c-club?" You question, meaning to build up your segue a little more but your eagerness getting the better of you.
He blinks in confusion. "Haaa... Yeah. I mean, it's not like I can really draw but I guess Rin rubbed off on me a little while we were making the mural." He jerks his head a bit and smirks at his own words as if reminded by something the autismal girl said or did. "Hopefully not too much."
"O-oh..."
"Are you in a club, by the way, Hanako?" He suddenly asks before you can get a chance to sulk properly.
It's such an obvious segue that you should have been better prepared for it. Thinking fast, you reply...

Hmm...

Second option means more opportunities to keep up to date with Hisao's whereabouts and actions.

Seems the rational choice, but Hisao doesn't exactly seem to be respectful of Rin.

>"Hopefully not too much."

So, maybe it was a ruse to avoid/negotiate with StuCo?

If so, StuCo are the greater threat and uncommitted time for reacting to them matters more.

...

[x] M-me? N-n-not... really... (Costs nothing)

Going with my gut. Nothing rational to back this one up. Just suspect the real threat is unseen and this will permit more flexibility.

B-but...Hanako...joining the art club. It would be cool.

And potentially a source of stability if she discovers that she likes it.

>>23967053
no way she'd enjoy it though, with Rin being there as a constant threat. Not to mention all the other students there.

Sabin, >>23967189 has a point. It's like Lilly said, we have to pick our battles.

I know Lilly's the enemy but that doesn't destroy the validity of her point.

>>23967144
Stability is a secondary concern here. Rin is always the craziest one of us, and aside from Emi, every one of her most likely allies is a factor in the art path. Stability means nothing if we get murdered.

>>23967279
I don't blame you. We definitely should do something about the art club situation. But lying to Hisao about it now won't help matters.

"M-me?" You stammer in confusion. "N-n-not... really... "
"Ah." Hisao emotes, looking down a little.
A silence ensues between you two. While you're floundering for something to say, Mutou lurches into the room and pukes into the trash can before straightening and beginning his lecture as if nothing happened. You quickly and quietly make your way back to your seat, not really know what to say anyways.
The lecture... Might be on physics... Or chemistry... Or it might be a plagiarized rerun of Bill Nye. You really don't notice or care.
The blaring contradiction in Hisao's words prods at you. Hisao... joined the art club even though he can't draw? Why would he do that? You make up your mind to ask him at lunch.
Yet, as soon as the lunch bell rings, you look over and find his desk empty with Shizune and Misha looking surprised at the same patch of vacant space. How... clever... He must have left just a minute before class actually ended to give StuCo the slip.
You dash out into the hallway and just manage to make out Hisao's form disappearing into the stairwell. That's strange. you...

Shizune and Misha are a total blind spot. We've avoided talking to them previously when it would possibly be highly advantageous. What StuCo's ambition or motivation is NEEDs to be determined before they put their plan in motion.

He's going to the roof, we need to intercept him!

Shit, probably true. Or the art room. All roads lead to that autistic whore!

>>23967492

We'd need to read between the lines, I admit, but we know absolutely nothing other than they're probably one of the deadlier threats.

And the opportunity to sew some resentment between StuCo and art club is too sweet to miss. Shizune is hypercompetitive, and if she believes we're on the backfoot and Hisao is turning towards Rin, she'll off Rin rather than pay attention to us.

Which works fine. We get to see how she kills.

>>23967561

He also hates clingy bitches who don't give him space to breathe.

>>23967543
Stuco has weight to throw around, and Shizune fancies herself a strategist. Let her spend all her time running around cockblocking the limbless twins. It'll give us that excuse to talk to Misha alone later, which will then set up Shizune's downfall. Gotta think 3 moves ahead.

>>23967543
if Shizune is the bigger threat, then all the better for us to get into a position that allows us to take note of her weaknesses as well.

I agree on trying to get Misha to seduce Shizune but I'm not sure if that's possible, if she's already been rejected.

I think the way to crushing Shizune would instead be to get rid of her allies, starting with the drills.
I'm getting ahead of myself though, first we take out Rin.

>>23967598

Divide and conquer.

Hanako IS an assassin, after all. It's easier to stab someone in the back if their attention is focused on someone else.

You can't just let this opportunity pass... And on top of it, you're curious. You hug the wall and make a light dash to the stairwell, where Hisao's footsteps are already resonating from a floor or two above you. The roof? You and Lilly used to eat there sometimes... But, now...
You hear the door open and Hisao's voice a minute later. "What are you doing?"
Who would he be meeting?

Oh. That's who.
You try to pay attention to Rin's autism-babble, but can decipher nothing meaningful from it and the entire spiel just blurs into an amorphous mass before she finally runs out of breath.
Hisao is evidently in the same state of mind as you on this topic, as he doesn't acknowledge her and instead just sits down alongside her after she finishes.

She already tried, bro.
I think we should go the other way. Get the idea into Misha's head that if Shizune can't make her happy she should ditch her.
Then we convince Shizune that the only way to hang on to the only friend she seems to have is to stop being such a prude and just hold hands with her.

I'm not sure its possible either, but any information which informs us one way or the other we're going to have to make an effort to get; and the sooner we get it, the more opportunity we'll have to act on it.

As of how it stands

>Akira; Lilly
At absolute worst, not overtly sabotaging our efforts to cease Hisao

>Miki
Possibly a source of information on Hisao's activity when we don't have eyes on, but unknown if she's Yandere for him

>Emi
Trains with Hisao. Did provoke a heart flutter because he trained too hard with her. I'd say 95% certain she's Y for him

>Rin
Has some sway over Hisao despite apparantly no overt attempts to compete for him. Probably >50% certainty she's Y for him, but possibly she simply wants access to him as some kind of sanity anchor.

Blindspot!

Its time.

I think that's more the opposite of damage control, actually.

Hisao asks you about clubs and you specifically say you're not a part of one. You know he's in the art club, and immediately after class you go all the way up to the roof to ask about joining the art club.

The alternative is spend stability to lower the amount of trust Hisao has in us.

Hide when Hisao leaves. With luck, Rin will still be on the roof. Then, when Hisao isn't there, and Rin is just staring at the sky, we throw her off the roof, and make it seem like an accident.

>>23967926
Banking stability is what got us in this mess.

Lemme elaborate on my prior choice.

Hisao hasn't said anything worth being concerned about. In fact, it sounds like he might be leading the conversation in a direction that's FAVORABLE to us. I'm just sayin, let him finish the damn line before we "suddenly get interested in art."

>>23967942
No, everyone else got us into this mess

>>23967942
No, spending stability on nothing is what got us into this. People keep choosing the LEL SO FAHNNY INSANITY option, which leaves us completely unable to act when we really need to.

It difficult to argue with this when people want to spend 3 stability to make us look terribad for the sake of LOLRANDOM.

This conversation is turning butterflies in your stomach... But you can't bring yourself to just barge in... You gulp and continue listening.
"Do you ever think about the sky?" She asks with all her usual dispassion.
"Yeah, actually." He sighs. "I used to watch it from my hospital window and hope I could fall the wrong way up into it."
"Did that ever happen?"
"Sadly, no."
"Just try harder."
"Well I don't know abo-"
"-Excuse me, what the fuck are you doing?"
You suddenly jump completely backwards in startlement and gasp as you very nearly fall down the stairs. Emi stands directly behind you, her arms crossed, looking extremely angry.
You're startled. Too startled to answer. Too startled to come up with any kind of excuse. It might have been different if she'd addressed you first, but she's shocked you. With a pained cry, you take flight downwards, out of the stairwell, out of the building. You don't stop running until you've reached your room and barricaded yourself in.

It's a while before you can muster the courage to come out again. Maybe a day or two. The passage of that time, however, was enough for Hisao to become firmly entrenched in his new routine.
Shizune and Misha are monopolizing his time with the Student Council. Other times he's either down at the track or at the art club. You never had ties to any of those groups, so the opportunity to catch him keeps passing you by.
This goes on for nearly a week before you finally muster up the courage and head over to his dorm directly.
But what you see there... It breaks your heart.
You see... Hisao... with 'her'. You see... You... see...

With a slightly whimpering, you awaken, a tear streaked down your face.
Biting your lip as the silence of reality comes back to you, you lightly touch your finger to your cheek. It's not really a surprise to you. That's usually where you awaken in that dream... That memory... That old desire.
Well, despite having gone through this maybe a hundred times already, it doesn't sting any less. You curl your knees up to your face and sob for a few minutes.
That memory of high school... That's the one you remember most strongly. Probably because that's the only time you'd really fallen in love.
You look up. At the empty room in which absolutely nothing has changed since the last time you rearranged it.
You fell in love... And you lost it. You lost... him...
A shaky sigh escapes your lips.
You resolve to change. To change yourself. To change your life.
...
Exactly like you did yesterday. And the day before that. And the day before that. And all the other days in which nothing at all changed.
You shake your head and pull yourself from bed to begin another identical day in your lonely life.

Same result, least amount of SP. We know something's up between him and Rin, and the art club will strengthen Emi's grip on him as well. Once we join as well, we may be able to cut them off.

2nd option

>Try forming an alliance or even a temporary ruse if you can.
Which is where the StuCo option comes in.

Both are pretty viable, really.

>>23968351
>it's just a game, no need to try to win
Fuck you, I'm from /v/. Losing isn't fun. Especially when we're only losing because idiots like you keep saying it's funny.

>>23968310
SECOND OPTION
WE HAVE TO GO BACK TO POTATOS
JOIN ART CLUB
SWAY HISAO

Right. Goddammit, I need sleep.

>>23968310

Change it to option 2. LIE! Infiltrate the art club.

>>23968381
>Try forming an alliance or even a temporary ruse
That points at StuCo. Akira is too smart to give us the "right" answer, just a hint to keep us from avoiding the wrong ones like we just did.

Oh...way to go, fa/tg/uys.

And where the hell is Wheatley?!

Losing isn't fun, but whining about it afterwards just makes you seem like a whiny manchild. We got a Bad End, but we also gained valuable info from it concerning his feelings towards Rin. We must use those to our advantage in the best way possible. Art club has numerous advantages, whereas working with StuCo might cause problems down the line because Shizune and Lily hate eachother.

>>23968415
>from /v/
Awright kiddo, lissen up. Two things you need to know about quests.
One, the DM (Akira) is always right
Two: DMs hate losing. Its boring.
So relax, enjoy the conversation, and don't panic.
>>23968448
OR, hisao sees us trying and encourages us, giving us sweet sweet stability.

>>23968448
>Team up with StuCo
>Shizune and Lily end up fighting again
>We either scorn our new allies or our Rock Of Stability
Yeah, this seems like a bad idea.

>>23968310

Time for an elaborate ruse. We'll have plenty of time to work on our mask in the art club.

I shouldn't have to say this, but I can't count your vote if you don't make it clear what you're actually voting FOR.

>not joining Art club so we can Ask Hiaso to pose for us

if we play our cards right we might see him naked before the others do

Wait, you think Lilly is going to disapprove of us leading Shizune up the garden path?

Because we're keeping her in the loop from the start.

Ultimately we may need to play Lilly off versus Shizune after all.

Clean hands, guys. Clean hands.
