Dangnabbit let me spend time with future sister in law!
Cute.Nagai! You alright?! I heard about that Tournament you were in. You OK? Need something?! Text me back when you can, damn it!
Huh. She sounds worried. Which you didn't expect. You text her to let her know you're OK, and ask why she's sounds to worried. She quickly responds:
Because I was worried, jerk! I thought you got hurt or something! Especially after that weird company came out about a kid regrowing an arm or something. Aaaahhh...do you think we could meet up later this weekend? Just the two of us? Just because I want to make sure you're alright. See it for myself.
I have to agree with this. So far we haven't particularly run into enemies with ranged abilities that necessitate hadoken, nor would we be particularly disadvantaged if we did. Putting our feelings skill towards speech checks on the other hand is guaranteed to pay off, well, immediately given the general tone of all the votes in flux. At the very least, it'll help us big time in the upcoming meeting.[X] On Their Sleeves: Feelings 50: Can now apply Feelings Skill Score to Speech Checks.

You've convinced me. Adding On Their Sleeves to my vote.I have to agree with this. So far we haven't particularly run into enemies with ranged abilities that necessitate hadoken, nor would we be particularly disadvantaged if we did.

The Fox and The Tsundere
Yameko, or as she was called in her current form, Hina Shiho is currently sitting and waiting for Munagi-san. Yamato-sama told her that Munagi-san wanted to speak with her about something. He said that she wanted her to meet her here. In class. After it was over. So all the students were already gone.
To be honest, her opinion of Munagi-san hadn't really changed ever since Yamato-sama first asked her. She still found her to be interesting, especially regarding how she always denied being in love with Yamato-sama. She had a hunch as to why. It had also been a while since she last saw her. The last time was back at the Tournament.
That didn't mean she was gonna stop teasing her. Far from it, actually. She loved seeing her stutter while a blush formed all over her face. Besides, Yamato-sama is her lord. She couldn't let her win his heart. Her hidden ears twitched as she heard the door open, then close, and lock. It appeared that Munagi was here.
"There you are, Shiho-san!" Munagi-san says with fury.
I, Munagi Rishi, the heiress of the Apexi Vehicle Corporation, will not tolerateher stealing my beloved's heartthe inappropriate behavior Shiho-san shows toward Yamato-san. I will approach her calmly and firmly to convince her to cease any such actions.
How dare she sit in Yamato-san's lap! How dare she call him with the sama honorific, she should be using the kun honorific instead.
I really want my cat ears to twitch right about now. However, it's just some stupid cosplay, not the real thing.
She should be in her class waiting for me. It's after class, so no students should be there to overhear us. Thank goodness I managed to exchange phone numbers with Yamato-san at the last club meeting. It was the only way I could schedule a meeting between Shiho-san and me. Any other way would look suspicious.
"Ah, there it is. Yes, I think this is the correct one."
Taking a breath to center myself, I opened the door, closed it, and then proceeded to lock it behind me. Then I immediately turned around to stare daggers into Shiho's eyes. She dared not care at all.
"There you are, Shiho-san!" I expressed with fury.
Well, that's a rather rude way to start this whole conversation. Oh well. Let's begin the fun, shall we?
"Oh, Munagi-san. Yamato-sama said you wanted to talk to me after class. May I ask why?" She saw Munagi-san's eyebrows furrow slightly more as she heard the honorific. She didn't mind though. After all, Yamato-sama is her lord.
"That's what I'm about to get into, you sly fox," Munagi calms herself as she speaks. Her face was a mask of a serene, quiet rage.
"Shiho-san, can you please stop showing inappropriate behavior toward Yamato-san in public? Such things are not proper behavior for high school students," Munagi-san asked, her hands folded before her.
"Munagi-san, what you see is not inappropriate as long as Yamato-sama allows me to do such things," Yameko paused before speaking "Besides, you're just jealous, aren't you?"
"Besides. you're just jealous, aren't you?" Shiho smugly says.
How dare she think I'm jealous of h-her. Uh, I'm not jealous, am I?
Oh goodness, I'm not blushing now, am I? Stop it, stop it! That's giving her what she wants!
"N-No! Of course, I'm n-not jealous of you or anything," I shake my head furiously, trying to keep the panic out of my voice.
Shiho-san lips curl into a smug smile, "Allow me to guess. You first saw him as your rival, but slowly you began to fancy him. His stoic determination mixed with a hidden softness. His quiet yet firm disregard for authority and protocol that he shares with his brother. It impressed you. And now, you wish to have him as your boy-"
I swiftly interrupt while fuming "AGAIN, I AM NOT-."
Placing my hands over my mouth is the only way I can stop the words. But the damage has been done. Shiho-san nods, "I believe that's enough for confirmation."
I calm myself again. Looks like there's no point in denying it anymore. My hands drop from my mouth as I sigh, "Fine, it's true. But, what are you looking to gain from this? My embarrassment? Blackmail? Something else?!" I said while looking at the ground. If my parents found out about this...
"No, actually. I just want you to stop denying it to literally everyone," She leans back on her chair while saying so. "Of course, you can still deny things like that when Yamato-sama is around," again acting smug while saying so. "It's pretty funny to watch," she says while wringing her hair.
"It's because of that!?" I proceeded to hide my face with my hands.
"It's because of that!?" she said, as she hid her face with her hands.
"Yes, that's correct. I hoped that by doing a more exaggerated version of my actions, you would cease to deny that fact. But I changed my mind. It is so much more fun seeing you become flustered like that," Yameko said mischievously while scratching her hidden ears.
Munagi-san became completely flustered. Her blush formed all over her face. She stuttered as she tried to respond, "N-no, h-how cou-ld that pos-si-," she sat down on a chair and screamed a muffled cry via her hands.
"N-no, h-how co-u-ld th-at possi-," I sit down on a chair, close my mouth with my hands, and scream a muffled cry.
I, Munagi Rishi, the heiress of the Apexi Vehicle Corporation, am completely embarrassed. How could this possibly be?! How did I not notice that she was baiting my envy like this? "I-I."
All of a sudden, Shiho-san moved closer to her. "It's OK, you don't have to say anything. I can wait until you calm down," she says, looking at her with sadness in her eyes?
Right, I need to calm myself. I can do that by breathing in and out.
Inhale, exhale.
Inhale, exhale.
Inhale, exhale...
It looks like the blush on my face is no longer there. That's good, I think.
"Now that you have calmed down. Would you like to eat with me?" she says while eating...fried tofu?
The smell of the food has an inviting vibe to it...and my stomach makes a grumbling noise because of it.
"Yeah, I did skip lunch to be here," I thought while stopping myself from drooling.
"Fine, if only to satiate my hunger!" I said while cursing my hunger in secret.
I hesitated for a moment, but I shook it off as I reached for the fried tofu that Shiho-san gave me.
Shiho-san smiled as I put that tofu in my mouth. "It can't be that good, right?" I thought to myself as I was doing this.
Yameko smiled as Munagi-san put the fried tofu in her mouth. Little did the human girl realize that the food she was eating was her favorite. Yameko thought this was an excellent bonding moment for the two of them.
"Now, time to see her reaction," Yameko said while waiting for Munagi to finish eating and resisting the urge to clasp her hands together.
I taste the fried tofu in my mouth. It tastes plain, yet the fact that it's fried gives it a savory taste that makes up for it. The point is... It's extremely delicious!
I chew the tofu for a few more precious seconds before devouring it. It's definitely way better than some of the food that I've eaten in the past.
"So, how was it?" Shiho-san said with a glint in her eyes.
"So, how was it?" Yameko said, trying to hide her anticipation.
Munagi-san stayed silent for a minute before finally answering. "It was...REALLY GOOD!" Munagi-san said with a shocked but excited tone.
"Where do you get this stuff?!" Munagi-san said with eyes wide in shock.
Yameko chuckled before answering. "Oh, it was in a pick-up-only food stand where they sell a variety of tofu dishes and snacks. I usually just buy the fried tofu one though. I can ask Yamato-sama to give you the location if you want," she answered while chewing on her fried tofu.
"Y-yes! Please ask Yamato-san to do that. Thank you so much!" Munagi said before bowing her head.
"Y-yes! Please ask Yamato-san to do that. Thank you so much!" I said while I moved my hands in excitement. Oh, imagine going on a date with Yamato-san while sharing tofu with him. That would be such a romantic thing to do to him!
"It would be my pleasure," Shiho-san said with a considerable amount of elegance. "But, might I ask for clarification on something?"
I tilt my head in confusion, "What is it?"
"You're thinking about going on a date with Yamato-sama while sharing that delicious tofu aren't you?" I stiffen at her words. How can she read me that easily? Can she read my mind?
"Because, if that is the case, I'm going to come with you two as always~. Yamato-sama is my lord after all," Shiho-san said with utmost confidence. For what was probably the first time in my life, I'm going to disregard my noble attitude to scold her for her actions!
"Why you!" I stand up from my seat, fury filling my heart. This may be playing into her hands, but I don't care. Because right now? I'm just so pissed at her.
And then, Shiho-san snapped her fingers, "Oh yes, the insult about me being a sly fox? There may be more truth to that than you think~," she giggled as I narrowed my eyes. What was she-did she just disappeared?!
"WAIT WHAT!?" I yelled, looking around the room as I tried to find her. Then I heard a door open behind me. Spinning around, I saw the door I came in from was still open.
....
...Didn't I lock that door?
....I need to call Yamato-kun.
"Well, that was fun," Yameko laughed as she walked down the hallway. She just couldn't help doing that. Especially after Munagi literally called her a sly fox. It was the perfect opportunity.
She also didn't feel like getting scolded by an incredibly pissed-off Munagi-san. So, it was perfectly okay for her to do that...right? She hoped she wouldn't regret this.
She also still promised Munagi-san that Yamato-sama would give her the location of the tofu stand. She should get to that as quickly as possible.
As if on cue, her phone starts to ring. Checking the caller ID, she's surprised when she sees Yamato's name. A chill ran up her spine as she answered the call, "Hello, Yamato-sama."
"Excuse me, Yameko-san," Yamato-sama began, "I recently received a phone call from Munagi-san telling me that you disappeared right in front of her. And proceeded to open a locked door without her noticing. She called me to check if any of what she saw was real, or if she had imagined it. She sounded particularly upset as she explained things to me. I believe there is a good possibility she suspects you are a Kitsune and that you have done something to make her angry."
His voice had a hint of...disappointment in it. It was small but noticeable.
Enough that it almost made Yameko stop in her tracks.
Yamato-sama...was disappointed in her?
"I asked her politely about why she was mad. She wouldn't say the reason, but did inform me about a promise you and her made with each other about something related to me. I also informed her that you were joking, owing the fact that you disappeared to a magic trick that we have been practicing," he stated with no emotion.
"With that said, I have a few questions I'd like to ask you, Yameko-san," he again stated with no emotion. That was normal. But there was something about it that made her gulp in fear.
"S-sure, Yamato-sama. I will answer to the best of my abilities," she says hoping that will calm Yamato-sama a tiny bit.
"Firstly, what promise did you make with Munagi-san that involves me? Secondly, what did you do to make Munagi angry with you?" the sound of his voice had a hint of...anger!?
"Oh, oh no I'm doomed aren't I," she thought to herself as she found her heartbeat quickening.
"Finally, may I ask why you did such a thing when you are aware of the Organization's presence in the school?" A simple question really, Yameko thought. Then again, in her entire lifetime, she could never imagine saying this, but she did.
"Lord Yamato, I have a perfectly reasonable explanation!" she bluntly half lied.

Ok, first off. Thank You For Reading My Omake. It means a lot to me that I have published this. This went through a couple of revisions while being beta'd and rewritten by @LinkOnScepter. This originally had some angst to it. However, it was replaced with fluff due to characterization errors.
But yeah, That's all fella's!
On the one hand, I want more of this because it's been so long since I've seen decent fox-shenanigans.
*coughTsunderecough*She still found her to be interesting, especially regarding how she always denied being in love with Yamato-sama. She had a hunch as to why.
You need to get those mechanical cat ears that move depending on your mood.I really want my cat ears to twitch right about now. However, it's just some stupid cosplay, not the real thing.
One cannot just drop the tsundere-act, they just turn more deredere."No, actually. I just want you to stop denying it to literally everyone," She leans back on her chair while saying so. "Of course, you can still deny things like that when Yamato-sama is around," again acting smug while saying so. "It's pretty funny to watch," she says while wringing her hair.
Hunger is the true enemy."Fine, if only to satiate my hunger!" I said while cursing my hunger in secret.
Heh. Funny, but you really shouldn't have done that. Unnecessary risk."WAIT WHAT!?" I yelled, looking around the room as I tried to find her. Then I heard a door open behind me. Spinning around, I saw the door I came in from was still open.
....
...Didn't I lock that door?
....I need to call Yamato-kun.
Good job, Yamato.I also informed her that you were joking, owing the fact that you disappeared to a magic trick that we have been practicing," he stated with no emotion.
"I thought it was funny, and didn't think that far.""Lord Yamato, I have a perfectly reasonable explanation!" she bluntly half lied.
