[X] You choose Iji. She's the quietest of the bunch. Which makes her the most mysterious. And you do like a good mystery. (Gain Iji SL; Starts at Rank 1 with 2/3 RP; Kendo Fighter)

We have to introduce Hose to Yoko.

Yeah, it's hard to pick.

We've got the one who's already pretty friendly, and isn't entirely buying into the troll-teacher's bullshit (vanilla option, but some people like vanilla). We've got the cute, quiet one (the Rei Ayanami type, and I'm sure we all know how popular she is). And we've got the tsundere, with the tantalizing prospect of learning what makes her tick (one of the most popular archetypes in fiction).

Kendo! Also, I like the idea of Haruka trying to talk her out of it and all the super serious and factual responses she get's back.

A quick question: @LinkOnScepter We are only voting for the one we unlock first right now, right? As in, we can still unlock the other two later (presumably via whichever link we pick right now)?

Also, my guess on what really happened with "the Queen" is that the nice guy she met was completely oblivious; she thought they were dating, but he didn't get the hint, and she eventually left in humiliation because he never noticed. Because shonen.

You mean, eloping? That would certainly be inconvenient.

...bet she talks in kanji, too.

The other two seem a bit too trope-y. They'd work out well because QM is decent writer, but let's do the so-far-sensible one.

Specifically, the first two Jindai girls you met when you arrived at this stadium. You believe the white haired one was named Iji, while the black haired one was called Haruka. The two of them are sitting against the all with their knees drawn up to their faces. You can almost see the general feelings of sadness that have overtaken them. You'd expect the ears on their heads to be drooping if they were real.

Ouch, seems that their fight didn't go so well.

You raise an eyebrow, "Does everyone at this Tournament have a love of fighting?"

"Yes," all three girls speak in unison, "Don't you?"

"...Got me there," you smile and shrug.

You eventually cough into your hand to finally break the tension. This gets the girls' attention on you...which makes you go quiet for a second. You were going to mention how your fight went...

[Empathy: Feelings: 35 VS DC 30. Success! +1 RP with Jindai Girls]

...but you get the feeling that doing so will only make them more upset. So you take a moment to carefully curate your choice of conversational topic. Lets see....ah, got it!

Thank you, Empathy, for last minute save!

"I don't fantasize about that type of stuff," you say while shaking your head, "Not really my thing."

"Oh? Then what would be your 'thing' exactly?" Yoko's smirk sends a chill down your spine. Especially when the other two stare at you with judging gazes.

"Well...it's a story told and carried by high school students. Some details get exaggerated and overblown, while others are left to gather dust. Not even some of the other third years remember exactly what happened. But based on what I got through word of mouth, there are currently three different accounts of how it all ended up. And people usually find themselves in one of those."

Yoko holds up three fingers. She folds one down, "One of the accounts states that the fact that she had a boyfriend at all made the rest of the school stop seeing her as their Queen. She was no longer 'pure' and 'was sullied', you know stupid crap like that. She lost all her cred and eventually dropped out from the shame. No one knows what happened to her after that, but everyone blamed Raijin for it. Figuring that if she had never met the guy, none of this would've happened."

She folds down a second one, "One states that some of the Jindai girls started threatening and bullying her boyfriend. Trying to get him to break up with her or stay away from her. Rather than back off, it only made his affection grow stronger for her. The two ended up eloping because they figured no one would let them be together. Jindai blames Raijin for taking away their Queen."

She folds down the last one, "And then there's the third one. Which is the one most of the student body seem to believe is true. The girl's boyfriend turns out to be scumbag playboy. He's supposedly seen hitting on other girls that go to Jindai, treating the Queen like shit, and over all being an awful boyfriend. According to the story, he pressured her into sleeping with him and she found out she was pregnant a bit later. He disappears completely, devastating the Queen, and leading to her dropping out of Jindai. No one knows what happened to her after that, but Jindai supposedly brought it to the attention of Raijin...who did nothing about it."

And I think that the real story is none of these, or one of these is only partially true. And that we're going to run into this Queen and her bf at some point.
LinkOnScepter said:
"How can you honestly believe that?" Haruka asks, sounding incredulous, "You've seen the students at Raijin. Can you truly believe none of them would try such a thing?"

Yoko raises an eyebrow then waves a hand towards you, "Don't know. Think that he would do such a thing?"

Haruka turns to look at you.

[A Good First Impression]

You just smile and wave at her.

She starts blushing then looks away from you. She coughs to clear her throat a bit before she speaks, "Well...I...maybe. He...he could be faking his kind disposition to catch us off guard."

The Headmistress nods then turns to you.

She points two fingers at her eyes.

Then points her fingers at you.

Then she repeats the action twice more.

Only after that does she step back into the room, closing the door behind you.

Not sure what to think of her.


[] You choose Haruka. She's the prickliest of the three. But that kind of makes you want to get to know her better. See where all that comes from. (Gain Haruka SL; Starts at Rank 1 with 1/3 RP; Karate Fighter)

All of them have their good points, but I'm most interested in seeing what makes Haruka tick, as well as prove her wrong of us. And her reaction for being picked is going to be hilarious. Iji doesn't really leave an impression on me and Yoko seems great, but I'd prefer in this case some spice.

[X] You choose Yoko. She seems to be the most easy going of the three. Would be the easiest to talk to. (Gain Yoko SL; Starts at Rank 1 with 3/3 RP; MMA Fighter)

You can try, though it will be difficult.

Hmm, while the 'shonen' excuse could be a valid one, it could also imply there's more behind the dude- like, even Ichika Orimura, who we know as the harem protag with black hole level density, chooses to be dense out of self-preservation. And Hayato (plus Yamato) in our case, are dense for their own reasons.

Like, Hayato is dense because he's either in the fight fight zone, or he's scared of committing to someone and then got his heart broken. Yamato... not sure, but it's likely some sort of abandonment issue too.

I suppose, though in most cases I'm aware of the protagonist is dense because he's an idiot. There is no in-universe explanation for why most romantically-dense characters are dense; they're dense just because the writers want to milk the romance arc until the end of the series- or, in more egregious examples, the franchise.

She was essentially the 'Queen' of the school so to speak. She was pretty, had a great personality, had the highest test scores, the works. Everyone in the school loved and admired her. She was the jewel of the school.

So, was her time in high school Wild? :V

Just in case, there's a webtoon called Girls of Wild and one of the main characters is called Queen.

...Ugh, I just realized the worst-case scenario for how Queen's story ended: She was some kind of monster, and her boyfriend turned out to be a member of the Organization on a mission to murder her. I really hope that isn't the case, but it's a possibility.
 
I know the story basically is about an poor guy that had bad experiences with women but had to joi an formely female only rich school due circunstances.
There he was treated like an comodity for a hot second before becoming involved with the fighting team...
Queen is the main love intrest, rich, beautiful, strong, uterly shit at socials.
