[Action | At school!]

Hey! Hello! Can I ask you something?

[A few days back, Sora made a promise -- at least, she had in her mind -- and she fully intends to keep it to the best of her ability. If Akane needed someone else to go to prom with him and whoever it was he had meant to ask had been a no go (she'll always wonder who that had been; alas

[inababanchou]

I'm sorry but I already have a date!

[appleknighted]

Oh wow. How did you know I was going to ask that?

[inababanchou]

Just a guess? If you don't have a date I can help you find someone nice to go with.

[appleknighted]

[Not psychic powers. Check.]

Oh, I'm not looking for a date for myself! I'm looking for a date for Akane!

[And, yes, she did mistake Souji to be a girl. Who knows why. It may have involved sparkles.]

[inababanchou]

[ Hey, Souji wears a dress pretty flatteringly. Well, can, but it's not like he's going to tell her that or anything. ]

Who's this Akane? Is Akane a nice person?

[appleknighted]

[Yeah, that would just lead to her asking if he likes floral prints.]

He's one of my allies from my old school. He's kind of shy, but he's definitely a nice person!

[inababanchou]

An ally? You mean a classmate?

[appleknighted]

Oh yeah. He's that, too.

[inababanchou]

An ally and a classmate? Are you a warrior?

[appleknighted]

Sort of! We're fighting to change the school or, uh, were, but we aren't there right now...

[inababanchou]

A school for warriors?... Or warriors in a school?

What do you fight with?

[appleknighted]

Not really? Only some people get to fight...

There are all sorts of weapons! But they aren't really real. I mean. They feel real, but they're... um... [What are the words for this.] ...made from... er... they're... is it holograms? Only you can hold them and stuff?

[inababanchou]

But that sounds dangerous. If you can hold them then you can use them against others, it sounds like. Why would you have a school that allows this?

[appleknighted]

It can be... [Translation: it is.] It's a part of the school. It's a game they have.

[inababanchou]

That's one intense school! What is the purpose of it all?

[appleknighted]

Well, the purpose is sort of to hurt people... that's why we're trying to stop it...

Um. So. You said you could help me find someone nice to go with before. I'm already going with someone, but would you have any ideas about finding a date for Akane?
