>Yeah... yeah I'm sure

Ryuko will understand, this is just for appearances.

"Yeah... yeah I'm sure." you respond

"Alright, then I'll be wishin' yah luck!" she says with a thumbs up

"Thanks Maiko" you say with a soft smile. The two of you then walk towards the gate.

"I'll be seein' you Maiko" you say

"You got it Boss! But before you go!" she poses "What do ya think? Should I wear this little number to the fight tommorow?"

You look at Maiko, still wearing the cheerleader outfit designed after suigetsu

"The craftsmanship is quite impeccable" Sui says "It looks just like me!"

You chuckle.

> I'd like it if you wore it all the time (Flirty)
> Uh sure, heh. (neutral)
> I'd rather if you didn't (decline)

>>5457483
> I'd rather if you didn't (decline)
Thin ice.

>>5457505
What's your reasoning? I'd rather she not have it on all the time, obviously, but I wouldn't say no

> I'd like it if you wore it all the time (Flirty)

>>5457483
> I'd like it if you wore it all the time (Flirty)

>>5457483

Flirty it is. Writing (I don't know what the thin ice guy is talking about.)

>>5457509
do not pursue jewchan

"I'd like it if you wore it all the time." you flirtingly joke

...
....
.....

A sudden awkward silence falls over the three of you. You and Maiko were close and you did honestly think she looked cute in that outfit. You don't regret saying it... okay well you might if she's not cool about it bu-

"R-really? Y-you uh think so?" Maiko asks interrupting your train of thought

She's looking away from you, blushing and embarrassed

> suddenly get flustered yourself "U-uh yeah hah."
> Answer without getting nervous "What? Of course I do."
> Deny it "No Maiko I was just joking."

>>5457564
What?

>>5457566
> suddenly get flustered yourself "U-uh yeah hah."
This is still early in the series; no rushing character development

>Get flustered

got it. we'll get back to it tommorow.

Got hurricane duty gents. But we'll be back soon promise.

>>5458810
The hurricane is over, are you okay?

>>5463124
Yes just busy.

"U-uh yeah hah." you suddenly find yourself rubbing the back of your neck awkwardly shrinking a bit.

"O-oh, cool!" Maiko says

The two of you sit in silence for a moment eventually-

"I- should get going! See you Anon!" Maiko rushes off

You sigh

"Anon, that was-"

"Don't" you cut off Suigetsu as you begin to walk home.

You wave to your parents and change into your pajamas.

"Are you concerned with your upcoming match Anon?"

"Yeah, no shit I am Sui." you groan in frustration

"Are you going to take any precautions." she asks

> I should... (try to develop something to give you an edge on Ryuko and Mako)
> No, I don't think so. (Fight her with what you have)

>>5464491
> I should... (try to develop something to give you an edge on Ryuko and Mako)
We have flight, we have puppetry, we have big jumping, we have talons. Could tweak the talons with puppetry bits to conduct signal to entwine the parts as we slash through. It doesn't hurt the individual inside the clothing, but forces the life fibers to be cut then tie to each other immediately after, making incorrect links and knots. This has the result of disrupting the life fiber power flow through the whole outfit or object until corrected, whether by the person consciously outputting more power to make the fibers untangle and reform, or after a fight to fix their shit. Is that doable, or a good idea?

>>5464491
> I should... (try to develop something to give you an edge on Ryuko and Mako)

>>5464510
I'll back this just to be clear.

> I should... (try to develop something to give you an edge on Ryuko and Mako)

What if we make some anti scissor blade clothing?

Or maybe some more traps or power up's like Gamagoori's defence or maybe invisibility

Alright build something it is.

Roll me D20+5

Rolled 2 + 5 (1d20 + 5)

>>5466537

Ah crap, screwed that one up a little

>>5466683
I'll go with this cause I'm nice. Writing.

You sit down thinking about both of the upcoming matches. You think you can make something that could directly counter Ryuko. But do you really want to? Cripes it seems like no matter you can do you're gonna screwed in any possible way you decide to handle it.

"Anon?"

You look up to Suigetsu

"Do you have something in mind?"

You do but... god you don't what will remain of you friendship after the fact.

"Yeah I'm gonna get to work." you take out your talons and begin to shape them. You form them slightly to be be able to output more power. If your research checks out, forcing so much power through the talons would cause the threads to fray and connect together again tangled. It wouldn't destroy Senketsu but it should stop enough power from flowing that you'd be able to fight her. This should work on Mako as well should it come to that.

"Anon, I get the feeling you aren't quite as excited at the prospect of battle as I am." Suigetsu says

You lower your head.

"No Sui, I'm not." you say

"Hm. Perhaps you should have a contingency, maybe destroy the upgraded talons so the Elite Four can't use them against Ryuko?" she suggests

You could but...

> They need these to fight against REVOCS too.
> Yeah.. I probably should.

Hey Anons if I got some art of Anon and Maiko would that be cool?

>>5468249
> They need these to fight against REVOCS too
Let's not forget the bigger threat at large

>They need too fight against REVOCS too

Big picture, and if Ryuko knows she will understand or agree.

I'll wait a bit longer.

>>5468249
>They need these to fight against REVOCS too.
We need to be 4 steps ahead of everybody.

Yeah, art would be cool.

Got it. Gonna be bit but I'll write once I get back home.

>>5468555
It's on the way.

Alright I'm home, writing.

"No I can't" you sigh "As much as I might worry, they need these to fight against REVOCS too."

Suigetsu closes her eyes and nods in understanding "Very well. Let us hope we thrive on the field of battle tomorrow, and hopefully not lose any friends in the process."

"Right. Night Sui." you say

"Goodnight Anon."
...
...
...
...
_

You are Suigetsu, Kamui and battle partner of Anon Meipan.

Currently your master is asleep. Tonight, you have a meeting with someone important. However, you aren't entirely sure if seeing them is a good idea.

Do you do it?

> Yes.
> No.

>>5468987
> Yes.
It's gonna be Senketsu, isn't it? The fucking outfits are going to be plotting under our nose alongside out own plots. Boy are we going to be proud of our uniform daughter(?), aren't we?

>>5468987
>Yes
Go forth our daughter, and be the slightly rebellious shit that throws a wrench in our plans~

Alright. Writing!

No you decide you must have this meeting! Anon's happiness depends on it!

You quietly spring out the window and run.. er waddle your way to a nearby alleyway. You stand there for a moment before your guest appears.

"Hello. Suigetsu." Senketsu the Kamui of Ryuko stand in the entrance to the alleyway staring you down.

"Ah, my eternal rival. Hello." you respond

"Huh? Rival?" Senketsu asks confused.

"Uh it's just that we uh... n-nevermind why did you call me here?!"

He chuckles "I want to make sure that the relationship between Ryuko and Anon stays in tact." he says

You nod "Yes, I'm sure you've noticed the same?"

"Hm. Those two are friends, Ryuko is already suffering as a result of Mako's recent attitude. I don't if she'd be willing to go on learning that another friend of hers would act against her."

"Yeah, I agree. Mas- I mean Anon is obviously hurting about all this. What should we do?" you ask

"Mmmmm. Perhaps... one of should throw the fight?"

...
> No I refuse.
> V-very well...

>V-very a Well
>>B-bold of you too assume that wasn't my Masters intention from the start!

>>5469691
> No I refuse.
Draw it out to its logical conclusion, win or lose.

>>5469714
>Refuse
Not out of pride but they would definitely know somethings up. Need a better plan.

"No I refuse." you says blankly

"W-wha?! So blunt!" Senketsu says shocked

"Apologies, this isn't out of pride. But Anon is strong, Ryuko and more importantly the Elite Four would know that he was losing on purpose."

he sighs "You're right. Did he have anything planned?"

"He intends to use his newly created talons to induce knots into uniform while she wears you. In an attempt to cut power without destroying you entirely!"

"He wants to tie me in knots?!" Senketsu yells shocked "Goodness, he must have the same amount of skill as my creator to pull something like that."

You nod, Anon is the best.

"Well I suppose there's only one true option then." Senketsu groans

Yes you suppose so too...
> Try to talk to Anon about this
> Let it be and have both them fight it out honestly.

>>5469858
> Let it be and have both them fight it out honestly.
It really is the only way

>>5469858
> Let it be and have both them fight it out honestly.

>>5469858
> Let it be and have both them fight it out honestly.

Fight it out honestly it is! Writing!

"Well, I suppose we shall be meeting on the field of battle tomorrow." you say

"I suppose so." Senketsu responds "Despite it all, I do look forward to seeing what you can do." he says eye closed.

You nod and with no words left to share you two go your separate ways. You make your way back to the home but find that-

"Huh?" you attempt to open the window you had left to get in and find it locked.

You being to flail around in a panic, Anon or his parents must've locked it while you were away! You rush around the apartment trying to find some sort of entrance. You eventually start hopefully start flapping your sleeves on the door to the home. You slump to the ground defeated until-

"Hello?"

You look up, Anon's mother is looking down at you.

"Oh my! Anon's uniform! How did it get out here?" she looks around.

That's right, she doesn't know you're alive does she?
> Hop up and ask her to take you inside
> Stay lying down and pretend to be inanimate.

>Hop up and ask her too take you inside.

>>5470065
> Stay lying down and pretend to be inanimate.
DISGUISE

>>5470065
> Stay lying down and pretend to be inanimate.
We might be "mere" clothes, but I'm fairly certain Anon would've brought this up with his mother if he wanted her to know! The masquerade must be maintained!

>>5470065
> Stay lying down and pretend to be inanimate.

Lying down it is! Writing!

You opt to stay quiet and lay still on the floor.

"Well I better put this back inside." she says

"Hey honey, what's wrong?" Anon's father asks

"Oh nothing, Anon's uniform was outside for some reason so I'm just bringing it in."

"Ah alright..."

A strange silence falls over the two of them.

"Dear do you think Anon is okay?" she sets you down nearby.

You look up at the both of them discreetly from where you're currently folded.

Anon's mother is a shorter woman however she has what can only be described by others as a 'mom bod' a little plump and tired eyes that are always near closed.

His father is like if an average salaryman worked out and had a seemingly permanent 5 o'clock shadow

"Okay? What do you mean?"

"He seems to be a bit different, doesn't he?" she says

"Well yeah I imagine he must be pretty stressed with all that Elite Four stuff going on." he responds

"Well when he joined he seemed so much happier." she puts a hand to her face "But now it seems like every other time he gets home he's panicked, his eyes are worried, he barely talks to us anymore."

His father sits down. "You don't think that-"

She just looks away from him

he sighs "You don't think that he's gotten involved directly with REVOCS do you?"

You freeze at that statement

"I mean we've seen it. Data on his computer, all of that equipment he's made plans for in his room." he says

"I-I really don't want to think about that." she says

...What is happening
> Stay inanimate and listen
> Show yourself and try to get their attention.

>>5470469
>Show yourself and try to get their attention.
As much as I'd like to continue being stealthy, this feels more in character

>Stay Inanimate and listen.
>>Lets not jump into this

>>5471330
+1

Alright! Writing.

You opt to stay inanimate and continue listening.

"Honey, we have to address eventually, we're members of Nudist Beach we can't just our son be caught up in REVOCS." he says

...Oh shit.

"I think we should let him be. If he was in trouble he'd talk to us right?" his mother says

"We already know Aikuro spoke to him." his father replies "Unless more serious things have happened since then that he hasn't told us."

Anons mother sighs. "What about this uniform?"

Shitshitshitshitshitshit

She grabs you and holds you out "This doesn't look like the one he was wearing when he was part of the Elite Four"

His father squints. "Actually Honey, doesn't this look like a Kamui?"

She blinks and suddenly puts a hand to her mouth.

"We... we need to get rid of this." he says

WHAT?!
> Okay time to freak out
> Let them do it, you'll deal with it.

(sorry for the long wait I got distracted.)

Alright! Writing.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" you begins to jump and flail around in a panic

_

You jump with a start. You can hear Sui screaming in the other room, with a burst of energy you rush into the living room to see mom holding Sui and your Dad looking at you shocked.

"Mom? Dad?" you ask

"ANON THEY'RE GONNA GET RID OF ME HELP!" she yells panicked

"Guy can I uh.. have my uniform back?" you say sheepishly

Your parents look to each other and sigh before your mom hands you Sui, who proceeds to latch herself onto you in a hug.

"A-anonnnnn!!!!!" shes blubbering

"Anon." your mom asks "Where did you get that uniform?"

...

>>5471584
>I made it

Whelp, cat's out of the bag, so to speak. Might as well go all out.

"I made it." you say

Your parents both look at you and then your mom approaches

"Sweetie, you weren't forced to make it were you?"

"Son, you know you can talk to us about this right? Massive organization be damned you're still our son!"

"No! No they didn't force me to, I-I did it it myself!" you yell in frustration

"What?!" they both yell in unison

"Yes!" you respond

"Anon are you sure this is a good idea?" Sui asks you

"No but there's point in hiding it now." you respond

A small silence falls over the three of you. After a while your parents beam wide grins and scoop you up in a hug.

"Oh I'm so proud of my smart boy!"

"I knew my kid would be the one to pull somethin' like this off haha!"

Your mom and dad start swinging you around happily.

> ...What the fuck is happening
> Join in the hug, relived that they don't hate you.

>>5472147
> Join in the hug, relived that they don't hate you.
But inwardly, think to yourself you need a serious talk with Suigetsu later about whatever they heard from the parents. And what were they doing roaming around alone?

>Join in the hug, relieved that they don't hate you.

Just checked this my bad! Writing now.

You simply hug them back, tears of relief welling up in your eyes. You thought that they for sure would get upset at keeping such a big secret from them.

"How long have you had this little number son?" you dad asks

"Gonna be a few days soon." you respond

"It must've been difficult are you okay dear?" your mom asks

"Yeah, lost a bit of blood but I got it back." you say

Sui looks up at you

Your mom looks to Sui now, small smile on her face. "Sorry I scared you dear. I must say you look very pretty."

Sui lets go of you and puts her sleeves to her eyes blushing a bit.

"Nice Sui, weren't you panicking a moment ago?" you say

"Don't disparage her compliments!" she says flailing wildly

"Why did you make this son?" Your dad asks "I believe you when ya say you aren't involved in REVOCS but you had to have made it for some reason right?"

"Well... A lot of it was just because I uh... sort of got a bit overzealous. I had gained access to REVOCS data bases and I found the schematics for a Kamui." you explain

"You managed that and didn't get caught?" your mom asks

"Well I would've but-" ...

Actually should even tell your parents this?
> Explain what the Elite Four is planning

This is fine. Just fine.

Taking a break

>>5474084
If this is wrong then my bad but if it's not nice Jitsu wa Watashi wa reaction image.

Alright we're back.

"Well I would've but there's no way they would've figured me out! I'm too smart for them!"

Your parents laugh.

"Well I better head to bed." you say "Got another long day ahead of me tomorrow!" you say

"Of course, goodnight dear." your mom kisses you on the forehead

Your dad pats you on the back as you head back to your room flopping on the bed with a thud.

"Rest well Anon! Tomorrow is going a great day for battle!" Suigetsu says

"Yeah."

"Tomorrow." you say

Suddenly feeling exhausted you roll over and fall back asleep.
_

"Heya Boss!" You're barely walking through the front gates of the school before being accosted by Maiko. "Ready to take on the day!"

...
...
...

"Boss?" Maiko looks to you

Your face is deathly white and your eyes are ever so slightly sunken in. So much for falling back asleep last night, there's no way you do that when you're so nervous!

"Everything alright?" she asks

"No." you respond bluntly.

She seems worried but says nothing, you two enter the school and hear murmurs.

"You hear the fight club disbanded?" says one student "That Matoi girl left of her own accord!" says another one "Think Mankanshoku will let me in?" one says with a lecherous chuckle

"Can you believe this Boss?!" why are they spreading rumors about our buds like that!

...
> SHUT THE HELL UP! (yell in anger to the students)
> Stay silent and keep walking.

>>5480189
> Stay silent and keep walking.
Thoughts racing of how our family found out about Suigetsu.
Thoughts racing of whatever Suigetsu was up to last night.
Thoughts racing of our subterfuge collapsing around us against all our hard efforts to keep it up.
Thoughts racing of fighting Ryuko, how to not fuck it up.

>Stay silent and keep walking

We gonna have a resting bitch face though

Oh nice. Wasn't expecting responses after such a long break. Writing.

You breathe deeply and stay silent walking past all the murmurs and rumors.

You have too many things to think about right now to worry about what others are saying about your friends.

You have to make sure that you don't ruin your relationship with your friends!

You have to be prepared for anything!

You need to be-!

"Attention. All students and faculty please report to the arena."

Fuck

"Arena? I'm guessing that means what I think it means?" she asks

You sigh and nod

"Anon Meipan!" you turn to see the familiar form of Gamagoori

"You are requested at the arena." it's odd, although he's scowling... he almost seems, sorry for you?

> Simply go along with him.
> "Yeah I got it." (talk back and go on your own)

>>5480296
>Simply go along with him
The fact that we're not giving Gamagoori shit should convey our feelings better than anything else

>>5480469

>>5480296
I'll back this>>5480469
>"So on a scale of 1/10, how fucked is this?"

Sorry. Got busy with work but you guys are used to this at this point I think. Writing.

"I'll meet you down there." you tell Maiko

She nods and waves as you join up with Gamagoori.

The two of you walk in relative silence before you sigh and look to Gamagoori.

"Look man, if you could not be a student council member for a second." you start

He side eyes you

"On a scale of 1 to 10. How fucked is this right now?" you finish

He looks forward he closes his eyes

"I cannot ignore my responsibility as a member of the student council. I would ask that you not be so crass."

you slump

"However, if I weren't a member..."

you look to him

"I'd say an 8.5"

you groan "Better than I was expecting at least." you drag your hand down your face.

"Anon I am aware you have a personal relation with Matoi but you must put your personal feelings aside."

You look to him

"Being honest, I'm surprised you didn't talk back to me a moment ago."

> Stay silent
> What would you rather I did?
> What if you were forced to fight Satsuki huh? How would you feel?

>>5480752
> Stay silent

>>5480752
>"Blowing up at you wouldn't change anything, and I don't like yelling at my friends. Fighting even less, but this my problem."
>"Besides, if our positions were flipped, how would you feel being forced to fight your friend?"
>Go back to being silent and walk on.

Flipping a coin.

You opt to stay silent as Gamagoori leads you through the school. It's honestly sort of awkward. It's like he expected that to be a big moment and completely botched it, he's actually kind of surprising you.

The two of you eventually make it to a long hallway, the bright light coming from outside illuminating it.

"Everything's built for dramatics here huh?" you remark

Gamagoori huffs but otherwise says nothing

You step out, the bright light temporarily blinding you before you look out a cross an ocean of students watch from the rafters.

Looking further ahead you see Ryuko and to your side you see-

"Wha? Meipan?!" Mako, who seems surprised to see you here.

Ryuko's eyes squint with anger at you seeing you exit the tunnel, you can't blame her honestly.

"So that was your choice huh?"

> Stay silent
> It wasn't my choice Ryuko!

You stay silent simply preparing yourself to fight Ryuko as she stares you down.

"So that's how it's gonna be huh? Alright then! I'll take you on!"

You opt to not transform as Ryuko bursts towards you.

Will we not go out of our way too hurt Ryuko?

You sigh and block her oncoming attack with your gauntlet.

She looks at you with an angry grimace, clearly furious that you're doing this.

"Why?!" she yells

You don't say anything as you force her backwards.

"Anon?" Suigetsu questions your current course of action.

"Cmon Anon, spit it out! Why are you doing this? Huh?"

You grimace. The Elite Four look at you. Eyes searing into the back of your head.

"Anon are you okay? Aren't you going to transform?" Suigetsu asks

You look to Maiko off to the side she's dressed in the cheering outfit that looks like your Kamui again. But she seems nervous looking between you and Ryuko.

...What do you even do at this point?
> Transform. It's time to fight. (Will be followed by a roll)
