As an aside from jokes though I have two questions: do we have the ability to invite our friends to the tournament? Like our brother (assumedly his partner as well) and our two non school martial arts friends?

Not really, but this tournament is a big deal and everyone knows about this. If they want, they will come.

Correct. The Tournament is a rather high profile one. Not to mention most of your friends have reasons to go.

Hose is apart of your club and the one who suggested this.

Yamato is your brother.

Yameko is Yamato's Partner.

Yato is your Partner.

Munagi (doesn't) like Yamato.

Ritsuko likes you and her brother is in the Club as well.
 
Forgot that you guys got a +4 to Tactics: Cleverness from Yamato. Fixed 9.1 with the bonus.

You still didn't pass but the math is right now.
 
Yamato Story 1
Your name is Yamato Nagai.

You have just informed a Kumiho, a creature known for tricking people and then eating them, that you have managed to accomplish the task set before you.

Pointed, furred ears turn towards though the body they belong to doesn't. Hiroko keeps her face turned towards a row of lockers, forcing you to speak to her myriad of tails. The white appendages are thinner than Yameko's and appear to move with more "grace" than your Partner's. Well, they usually do from what you have observed.

As it stands though, they are currently whipping about in a storm of fur. Empty student desk and school supplies were sent flying through the air as Hiroko went a rampage throughout the classroom. You stood just inside the door to said classroom, watching as the fox demon rips her way through the teacher's desk with sharp looking claws. Some of the splintered wood heads your way but is swiftly swatted aside by the yellow tails of your kitsune partner. Yameko stands to the right of the door, the picture of calm as she hold out a cup of fresh tea for you to drink.

[Empathy: Feelings: 18 + 4 (Hayato) = 22: Required: 20: Success!]

[+3 RP Yameko]

[+10 XP]


You may not be as adept at reading emotions as your brother is, but even you are able to tell that Yameko is forcing herself to appear calm. Her ears are pointed towards her rampaging cousin, her feet keep shuffling, and the smile doesn't go up to her eyes. She's trying to appear like she has everything under control and knows exactly what's going on.

And that's something you don't doubt.

[Supernatural: The How and Why: 18 +3 (Hayato) = 21: Required: 20: Success!]

[+3 RP Hiroko]

[+10 XP]


And it's only thanks to your brother that you know as well.

"Hiroko is currently experiencing withdrawal effects from not imbibing human flesh for 999 years," you say while taking the tea from Yameko. You see her face shift into surprise while you take a sip of the tea.

[Perception: Objects: 16]

You are unsure what she put into it. However...

"Hmm, the fresh taste of mint combines with the smell of ginseng to create an interesting aroma. Well done, Yameko," you to your Partner. If she wishes you to be calm, then you will do so.

"Why, thank you Yamato-sama," Yameko bows to you while her tails swat some of the metal legs of desks that head your way, "I made it before we left. I used one of the few working Microwaves in the faculty room to heat it."

You nod. Then you turn towards the still raging fox demon. She screams at the sky, fangs out and body shaking with the reverberation of her bestial roar. You speak to Yameko while keeping an eye on the fox demon, "According to the legend, a kumiho should only have to cease imbibing human flesh for 1,000 days to become human. Not 1,000 years."

"Yes."

"Then, she is not trying to become human?"

"...Yes."

You don't go farther than that. You know that Yameko likely wouldn't tell you as of now. It is likely something very private and meant to be kept between the two of them. Instead, you focus your attention on the mad fox destroying school property. True, this is not your school but the point still stands. And you are not one who enjoys seeing the destruction of such things. However, you are unsure how to stop her. She clearly has immense physical strength. If you got close, she would likely severely hurt you or possibly even devour you. You could use the style Yameko has been teaching you, but you'd need her to work with you for it. And you don't wish to make her fight her friend.

Your mind drifts to Hayato. As it usually does during these times. If you're brother were here, you've no doubt he'd rush in and hug the kumiho to calm her down. Even as she bit into his shoulder, he'd simply smile and let the blows come until she's back to normal.

But...

....You're not your brother.

And that's ok. Because you have your own way of handling this.

"Yameko," you say to your Partner, "Can you go get some more water ready for me while I check the Home Ec room?"

"Of course, Yamato-sama? But what are you going to do?"

"You'll see," that's all you say before walking to your destination.

Hopefully, the room will have some garlic and chili peppers for you to use



"Uurrrgghh," Hiroko groans with her back against the wall. Her tails are wrapped around her defensively, while she covers her nose with both her hands. Her ears lay flat against her face as she tries to shy away from you, "Please don't bring that any closer."

You quirk your eyebrows up while holding the small cup of boiling hot, garlic, chili pepper water in your gloved hand, "So this does work. This is a very interesting thing to note. Don't you agree, Yameko?"

You turn around and see your Partner in a similar state to Hiroko. Her head quickly nods to you, while trying to fan the smell away from her.

....Well, at least Hiroko is no longer rampaging.



Got this in my head when you all asked to see things from Yamato's POV.

This is what one of his AP went to.

Grace and elegance. Always.
"Hiroko is currently experiencing withdrawal effects from not imbibing human flesh for 999 years,"
...Huh.

Indeed. You have your own things and styles.

Right, mixing water with garlic and chili pepper and boiling it is an excellent fox repellent.
 
Amazing! This was such a good read. The more I get to see Yamato use his head in a Light Yagami way without the psychotic god complex to solve matters, the more I am more intrigued to see more of his perspective.

His more backseat duties in the school rumble made me want to see more of the way he does things rather than just see the results, which I got from the confrontation with the head of the student council and this.

I hope that he gets more of a Giorno Giovanna vibe from him later on rather than Light Yagami, because Giorno exudes a lot more cool factor than Light in my opinion.
 
I honestly forgot that we're playing as the boisterous Lancer, not the Main Hero.

great as always.

To be fair, at this point we're more like deuteragonist.

Next week and Pantomath ensures you'll get the highest scores.

On all subjects.
That's going to be very confusing for those who know of us and very little more.

I helped make it happen and I'm confused by it :V
Imagine Negaverse's chat reaction to it.

Article:
ObserverOfThreads: Wait, how the f*ck did he manage to score so high in all subjects?! Wasn't he shounen-ing for the tounament the whole time?

CheeseWheels: Forget the tournament, where did he even get the time to get 3 the martial arts so high AND study? I call bs! He's too hack for a Lancer-type character!

BurgerTownGirl: Honestly, I'm just happy that bro is doing well for himself. I was worried that he was tunnel visioning because of Tournament Arc, but it looks like he was prepared. Also, maybe he just studied with Yamato before the announcement? It doesn't seem that surprising when you think about it.

Joker90: It's surprising because we thought he was using most of his time to bond with brofist Yato, waifuing the tomboy delinquent wannabe and geting along Ohma look-alike, not nerding school of all things!

ObserverOfThreads: Exactly! Why the hell is the big muscle acting like a big brain?!?

Man, I'm kinda tempted to write an omake about dirty fujoshis simping for HaYamato. Or just simping in general for Hayato.

I mean, I've watched some vtubers going full simp mode for Childe / Tartaglia (Genshin Impact) in their full banshee mode, I think I can write a bit of it lol.
 
@Sir Plusse
With how it seems that the votes are going with your original plan winning, even though you changed your vote, could I convince you to at least change it by putting that extra +10 MA training to MMA so that it won't be wasted?

Unfortunately, I'm not sure that's allowed. And even if it is, it'd probably piss off everyone voting for it.

So... unfortunately, I don't think I can do anything about this.

I don't see why not. There's nothing that says you cannot edit a plan you created as long as you say what you've edited and as long as the vote is still ongoing. I've seen it done and done it myself many times.

Granted, this is the first time I've seen a plan winning after its creator changed their vote.
 
Okay, decided to go ahead and change it anyway (switched Karate bonus to MMA). If anyone doesn't want to vote for it anymore, now's the time to change your votes.

Did you ever @ the folk who voted for your plan to let them know how it changed?
No, but I figure that if they haven't seen my statement that it's changed by now then they're not looking and @ wouldn't help. Besides, it's not really a BIG change, so they may just not consider it worth discussing.

If you feel like @'ing them though, go for it.
