[So, while trying to find an unpopulated area of camp, Takumi has happened upon the underwear tree. It's definitely easy enough to catch his eye and maybe make his mind theorize a bit about how exactly the underwear got there, but suddenly, he witnesses a new pair grow from the tree, and--]

W-... Was that just now-- a delusion...?

I think giving it attention just encourages it. Please pay it no mind.

[ero_to_hero]

[He yells out quite a bit as he falls back, not expecting anyone else to have been there]

AHH---!!

[ero_to_hero]

[and with no apology for the gesture whatsoever...]

... E-Encourages...?

[officialrapier]

...Is something wrong?

[thelittle_death]

Oh, it grew a new one!

[ero_to_hero]

[Suddenly, another person! He tries to keep his distance, but looks from the boy back to the tree, back and forth, back and forth, a few times.]

.......

[thelittle_death]

[he smiles, looking at the tree]

You know, I wonder if girls come here to change their underwear!

[ero_to_hero]

Heh--?

[His eyes fall on the tree again.]

Girls...?

[caped_valenger]

[That was definitely a hallucination, Underwear doesn't. It doesn't GROW.]

...Why is that tree covered in undergarments?

[ero_to_hero]

[He jumps back, startled, but also pulled from his train of thoughts and the first thing he can manage is--]

I DIDN'T DO IT!!

[caped_valenger]

[Spazing, sudden and loud yelling, obvious nervousness, lack of eye contact... oh, you are SO guilty.]

You know, the way you reacted is usually how the culprit reacts to the crime after being accused.

[ero_to_hero]

[His voice cracks a bit.]

Eh...!?

[W-Wait a minute-- Was there even a crime committed here? It's not my fault that someone did this to the tree! Or rather, I thought I saw underwear grow from it, but... No, that must have been my imagination. What if... There was an underwear thief about and I've suddenly made myself to be the culprit!? G-Give me a break! You've got to be kidding me...!!]

[thepiltdownman]

Was what a delusion?

[ero_to_hero]

[He shakily points a finger to the tree.]

Th-The tree-- It... grew...!!

[thepiltdownman]

Trees tend to do that, you know.

[ero_to_hero]

[He shakes his head fervently!]

N-Not like that! It grew u-u-underwear.

[His face is kind of... red.]

[dancemecanique]

No, it's a pair of underwear.

[ero_to_hero]

[I-I can see that, but--!]

Wh-Why is it coming out of the tree...?

[dancemecanique]

That's just the kind of place this is.

[ero_to_hero]

[The kind of place it is? Who would believe something like that so readily? I'm not that naive. And besides, what are the odds of such a cute girl coming up to talk to me so soon after finding a tree that grows underwear? That's totally something you'd see in an anime. And then after that, maybe a wind will blow and the panties will fall onto her... Or rather, maybe I'm just imagining that there is even a girl here talking to me.]

Wh-What's... your name?
