What bite?

[...yeah, that's absolutely the correct conclusion.]

[momming]

... Well, I'll leave it at that.

[goalsides]

[...???]

Whatever. [he seems embarrassed and immediately ignores it.] Anyway...it's not gonna take that long to fade, right?

[yamato kneed him pretty hard, it is definitely going to be there saturday even if it's faded a lot by then.]

[momming]

... Mm. Maybe by next week, it should be fully gone. But you've definitely damaged some blood vessels.

[ Sorry, Taichi. ]

[goalsides]

[there's a groan.]

You'll be my alibi if anybody asks weird questions, right? [eheh.]

[momming]

Yes, of course. Hopefully I won't need to be, but...

[ Better safe than sorry. ]

[goalsides]

Well...you saw what happened last time everybody started looking at injuries. Everybody became a suspect if something didn't have a good alibi.

[momming]

That's very true. And you'll vouch for my ribs, right?

[ Otome, everyone saw that. ]

[goalsides]

[he just grins a little.]

Otome-san, if anyone even tries to point fingers at you, a whole room full of people will vouch for you. Trust me.

[momming]

Goodness, I'm not even sure what I did to deserve that! [ with a soft laugh. ]

Injury-wise, I suppose I'm safe.

[goalsides]

You can't be serious. You kind of did a lot. [hewwo?] But...you're right about that. I don't know if anybody would suspect anything from you at all.

Not that I think you'd really hurt anybody without a good reason in the first place.

[momming]

I wouldn't. And I dearly hope I never have to.

[ she said, in a murdergame. ]

[goalsides]

Me too. [he hopes that for her, he means.]

...let's not think about it right now. Maybe we should focus on that debate? That had to be one of those extracurriculars the dorm heads were talking about. So we must get something for it.
