♪~Mr. Krabs! I have an idea~♪ "Hhhhaaaaa, Mom can we have them over for dinner? Can we? Can we!?" You impress using 'ld puppy dog face.
"Sure, why not. Did you make sure their parents are okay with it?" Good question.
You turn and address the two, "Hey, do you two have parents? I mean, are they here?"
A unanimous, "No." Followed with Hitomi saying, "I live in a boarding apartment alone. Why?"
"I came here alone so I don't even have a place to stay." You finally notice Emi's luggage case she's been tugging along. But you get the answers needed.
You give a thumbs up to Ma and tell her, "They're a-okay!" She doesn't totally suspect a thing.
"Um, alright. Then let's go." You hear the doors click and open the back seats to the guests of honor.
"Come, come, hop in! We're going for a ride. Everything just got figured out." You just realize that you never got their consent. Oh well, you can get that later! Now dinner time!

Brick! White! Green! Plants! Squares! Triangles! Helipad! Garden! It's a two story mansion! White people's style! Bourgeoisie!
"This is our home now!? It's huge!" Not huge as the Nishizumi mansion admittingly, but still sizeable.
"Ohhh!" Agreed Hitomi and Emi s they stare in mundane awe.
Then you spot other Mom come out the front porch and waves. "Hi, Mom two! I bought friends! Is Alex back?"
"Not yet. Now come in, I need you to help unpack some thing in the kitchen."
"Wait! I need to honor my guests first."
"Do it fast!"
"Da!" Wait, new home, no room. That means indoor exploration! "Quickly my new friends! Let's check out my new house!" You eagerly leg it to a new adventure! And leave Mom and company behind.
...

"I swear, she's the young version of you but with more energy and enthusiasm." Nakasuga sighs and accepted her lot in life.
"That's mean thing to say Emi-chan!"

You wander up and down the hallways at blitzkrieg pace, basement, first floor, second floor, attic, all as the checking of some fifteen different rooms, some of which are empty, no surprise, but most are furnished with items of similar nature. Like the room with fucking stereos and a forty something inch TV. Or the five bathrooms. Or the living/dining room filled with moving boxes. Or avoiding the locked room that is your brothers with the small plaque with his name and rank in different languages. Overall, everything is big! Big is good! That means the garage must be big too! Big enough for some medium tanks!
How did you come to that conclusion? Who cares. After your intrepid journey, you come back to help Ma and Mom unpack kitchen utensils before being shooed away for your lack of culinary skills. Sure you haven't killed anyone and are proud of that fact, but would it, nevermind, this just gives you time for your next plan. Tank plotting with friends.
You all sit in the high-quality western table and chairs, the chair being big enough that you sit cross legged on it, and begin the meeting. "Comrades of tanking!" You announce and gentle place your phone, as you don't have your laptop for it is buried and you haven't the time to go find it. "Through much searching of yester 'morrow and today, WE HAVE NO TANKS! Oorai didn't have tanks, Bellwall too! Hitomi!" *Dramatic table smack*
Hitomi stiffens up from you unnecessary action before replying,"Yes!?"
"How the F did your school sell your tanks? Also, can you get me a list of player still in the club? And maybe past members, please?" Recruitment is gonna be big, even if there aren't any tanks yet.
"Uh, right! I'll get on it tomorrow."That's one detail down.
Now for Emi.... You just stare at her pretty face. "Emi, you're too new so I can't think of what you can do so you can look really pretty. Right, Hitomi?" She nods with a smile and stares at the reddening Emi with you.
Holding back her rage she calls you two out, "Hey! Isn't this harassment!? Hey, knock it off Hitomi!"
"Cute Emi is cute!" Hitomi has become of you! Your little amusement ends as the front door is opened and closed with you know who coming through the hall.
"Yo Bro! Company!" You say as he drops his backpack at the living room entrance, does a weak wave to everyone and continues onward. "Wow, he looks hella tired." Aura wise, not physically, but probably that too.
"Alexander, help out in the kitchen!" Mom yells out from the kitchen. Why yes, bro is chief material compared to you. Quite the husbando, but not enough! He needs more training.
"Later!" Is his reply.
Now you turn back to your compatriots to announce, "Now the Consul has returned, we can really begin in earnest." Except it took ten more minutes of him to shower and come out dress, but whatever. He which has authority and power has come!
You let him know of the developments and he's like, "Okay." Don't okay the hard working secretary! Asshole. Ah, you'll leave him alone, for now. Off he goes to lay on the sofa.
Still, no budget, no tanks. But you have a spark! "Emi! I know what you can do!"
She eyes you with suspicion and tentatively asks, "Geh, what is it?"
"Find out what tanks are for sale. When we do get them dollars, or yens, or gold, hopefully, we can get some steals online! I believe in you!"
"Grunt work, huh? Fine, I'll do it. You owe me one, understand?" you nod to a delegation well done. As for you, well it's getting into Oorai business. Before for all that dinner! It was good. And awkward being translator. No, Moms are not married to each other. We don't talk about Dad unless he's here. Also, Brother wasn't very much of help! Thank you so much! Wait, where did he go?

Preliminary results are in! For Bellwall at least. Hitomi accounted that after losing their Captain at the end of last year, the club basically devolved to only twelve people, counting Hitomi herself. AKA the delinquents you met, some of them at least. Deary, you. Tank wise, they mostly had German mediums and TDs, sometimes Russian vehicles. Tracking them down will not be an easy task, if possible at all.
"Thank you, for what that's worth." Unlike your SIBLING, you do give thanks to good work.
"Hnm, no problem. If we can get back to doing Senshado I'm all in!"
As for Emi's task, one word, mass inflation of prices thanks to your fucking tank production system being utterly gutted after the closing of your school and other industries leading to thirty to fifty price mark ups for full vehicles. Oh that one word, you meant economic statement, AKA complaining of motherfucking capitalism. At least spare parts and ammunition haven't risen at all. You can feel the pain in your wallet. It hurts so much.
As for Oorai, you find jack all online with your current credentials. Really? No online records stored? Paper only? So much for bookkeeping. However, using bro's resources.... hmmmmm. Could also get stuff from Bellwall....
Action:
[] Bust into his room and acquire his help. Super computer get! No secret information of tanks will be beyond your finger tips. Also shirtless bro, ha ha, you don't care. But the ladies sure don't.
-[] "Psss, he's single." Confirm his probable eternal bachelor life without your help. And by extension so are you.
-[] "Y'all better know that nobody gets him without my approval. Nooobooodddyyy." Only the worthy in your eyes will get him. Like Miho. Or Maho. Yeah.
[] Nahhh, leave working more tomorrow, enough's been done today. Now for more play!
-[] By play you mean work. That counts, right? Work now, means tanks sooner, maybe?
-[] How play? Write-in. Board games? Computer games with tanks in them? Movies? Storytime probe of the past?
-[] Oh, show them your sword! And cup! And other stuff. Do you still have Kuro's uniform? Where's your tank clothes?

In the realm of the dragon....
Rip and tear. Ripe And Tear. RIP AND TEAR! With Bear hands! Get that loot! What did you get!? *Shing! Sparkle Sparkle*
"Wow, there's a lot of different models here!" Looks like Hitomi found your special armor models! Oh, you asked for help from Hitomi and Emi and they were cool with doing some unboxing. It was mostly for finding futons or some sort camping mattresses for them. Ya can't have them being on the ground without support.
"Cool, so that's where my collection is. Also, they have wheels that spin. Just be really gentle with them. They're not all metal models."
"Do those really exist?" Emi interjects while discovering another clothing box. Oh, hey your old school's tank uniform! You always like those since they have more pockets.
"Custom ordered, so yes. Bro has some cause he had money. Lucky guy." ENVY! They also make gun sounds, product of said owner. More ENVY! You settle down the jealousy and watch Hitomi gently roll a Panzer IV E on a box and it makes those rolling squeaks that you love. Life is good.
"How cute! Bang! Got you Emi!" Oh, that imitation sound from Hitomi is kawii! Reminds you of your childhood, around ten to eleven of age. Yes, you made those sounds and played with bro. Add to some dice rolling and ya got a roleplay session and a board game in one. Ah, still don't beat tanks in real life!
"Uh huh." A slightly embarrassed Emi coughs before putting the box in with the alike ones before turning to you and saying, "But colored me surprised, I never thought you had so little stuff here." She points to basically two large unopened plastic containers and the six small to medium cardboard boxes. Not how you would have done in moving stuff but you didn't do it so whatever.
You answer back, "Well, I'm a digital girl and a tanker by life. So obviously I can't have a tank in my room, that would be slightly crazy." Finally, you've opened up your tough box and found more models plus your brass cup! "Yay! Got mini Hellcat and my cup! Lookie lookie!" Uh, it needs to be washed if what you finger feel is true.
"Oh, interesting mug you have. One? Tracks? First tank group or something?" Emi is astute in noticing the First Armor symbol, only shame is that it's missing 'Old Ironsides' moniker.
"Cool mug, Alex-chan! Ah, you have some weird but cool things!" You balk for a moment from Hitomi's compliment and take charge of moving aside the models to a safe locale.
"Thank you thank you, I do quite like material things but they don't compare to a good crew." *Lightbulb!* "Ah, I remember something! Emi-chan, why did you transfer to Bellwall in the first place?" You have yet to properly ask her as to why she left her previous school.
Hitomi joins in with raising her hand and declaring, "Oh, I'd like to know too! You're supposed to be the ace in your school, right?"
Emi scratches her cheek and looks away from Hitomi and yours gaze. Eventually, she takes a breath and answers, "Geh, that. Ah, my last school was... troubling in some regards. So, one of my teachers heard of an offer from Japan, one thing led to another and here I am. I certainly didn't expect you or Hitomi here, that's for sure. Way too much of a coincidence."
You nod in agreement, "Yeah, I can see that. If Miho was here, then I'd be saying that too. It would be a good one though."
"But, I'm happy that Emi-chan is back. Now we can ride tanks together." Ha ha, about that Hitomi....... well you already told them you're working on that issue.
Anway, your necessary clothes are in order, your models are accounted for, but where are you other fine things? Futon mostly, but it would be nice if your laptop was found too. "AHEM, let's stop opening the small boxes for now. We will retask to opening those big containers." First one up, you get futons and associated items! "Mission accomplished!" Now your guests will not sleep on the floor or on your bed together with you. Uh, did you missed a chance perhaps? No, you didn't! Not at all! Failure is unacceptable regardless of the reward. Even if you get boobs and butt as the bounty. Nope, all is well. Cause you can always wait for group bathing moments, hee hee.
But wait, where are your Kuro things like your uniform? And your sword for the matter. Hmm, it's only ten PM, and school.... wait nobody has school in Bellwall tomorrow, or the week since the move is occurring. Suck it sleep! It's party time! In the bathroom.
... You will not share the secrets of women in the bath to anyone. The memories belong to you alone! Gahahahahhahaah.
"Ahh, I feel so much better!" You all say at once after leaving the bath fully refreshed and cleansed. Coming back to your room, all the boxes are moved aside so the futon can be deployed and the guest can take their rightful sleep. Likewise, you too. May they be good dreams.

Dawn of a new day....
Wake up at 8 AM cause no school, brush teeth, dress like an American TC, find bro shirtless in the dining room multitasking between eating a sandwich and doing laptop computer wizardry. Emi and Hitomi are surprised by his semi tone body, otherwise, you don't give a fuck given event of yesterday, "Morning dude. Made enough for everyone?"
"French toast and club sandwiches. Mom and Mom both left for work earlier." You walk over the wires to get the goods from the kitchen.
Not without stating, "Emi, Hitomi, you two can sit down. I'll get the food." Ho Ho, you're being a maid, funny funny, only you need the dress. And Alex, well, beefcake? You can't enjoy that, being related and all, but the girls sure can! You find the stack of food and gather the condiments, plates and etc. before returning to the mostly silent room. Bro is... busy while rosy Emi and Hitomi do their damnest to not take in the sight of a manly teenager that happens to tank and do other martial things. Hm, you should ask about that, how girls feel about dudes being manly.
You put the plates down when Alex begins to comment about the weather, "Today it might be close to a hundred. Be careful."
Talk about rude! He no speak Nippon! "Dude! Guests!" He doesn't move his head or do anything that's an acknowledgment and continues periodically eating and reading whatever's on the monitor. "Ah, fine. Here! Help yourselves! There's plenty to have." Regardless, he made enough for a party of ten, most of which is in the fridge. So even if his physical self does not show it, he's at least aware of the two.
*Nom**Crunch**Mom* ... The look on the other two's faces show a sense of enormous happiness upon biting the sandwich, the fine bits of bacon and turkey and ham together with the light crunchy lettuce and soft tomato on a white bread shaped in triangles, plus your preference of mayo makes it simply nice. And that's only the first sandwich for there are much more variants that are on the plate! Hmm! It's been decided, they will be excellent lunches! Ha, he must have thought it all out before hand.
You, as do the others, lick your hands after parting with the small piece of delight when your brother makes an offhand comment, "Today is might be over thirty-five. Take care of yourselves. Nothing big on the to do list. Don't cause trouble." The last two sentences were most directed to you than the others as it doesn't make sense for them to be roped in with what bro does now.
Sooooo, free day? Free day! Ah, but what are you gonna do?
Action:
[] Slowly begin your descent into being a workaholic like how other adults are. But with tanks! Come cohorts! Glory awaits! Ever onward to getting armor.
-[] To Bellwall!
-[] To Oorai!
[] Operation hunt for Miho shall begin in earnest. Get her to come with all the trickery you have ready to use.
[] Tank museum. You, friends, go. Fun times for all. Also...
[] Play play play! What better way to play than the beach! Beach episode?
-[] So it's come to this.
[] Stay home and finish unboxing all your junk. Plus do some socializing. It's good for friendship.
---
Or... (This can be picked even if an above has been chosen.)
[] Day in the life of a busy Consul, Alexander Winters.

Wake up at 8 AM cause no school, brush teeth, dress like an American TC, find bro shirtless in the dining room multitasking between eating a sandwich and doing laptop computer wizardry. Emi and Hitomi are surprised by his semi tone body, otherwise, you don't give a fuck given event of yesterday, "Morning dude. Made enough for everyone?"
"French toast and club sandwiches. Mom and Mom both left for work earlier." You walk over the wires to get the goods from the kitchen.
Not without stating, "Emi, Hitomi, you two can sit down. I'll get the food." Ho Ho, you're being a maid, funny funny, only you need the dress. And Alex, well, beefcake? You can't enjoy that, being related and all, but the girls sure can! You find the stack of food and gather the condiments, plates and etc. before returning to the mostly silent room. Bro is... busy while rosy Emi and Hitomi do their damnest to not take in the sight of a manly teenager that happens to tank and do other martial things. Hm, you should ask about that, how girls feel about dudes being manly.
You put the plates down when Alex begins to comment about the weather, "Today it might be close to a hundred. Be careful."
Talk about rude! He no speak Nippon! "Dude! Guests!" He doesn't move his head or do anything that's an acknowledgment and continues periodically eating and reading whatever's on the monitor. "Ah, fine. Here! Help yourselves! There's plenty to have." Regardless, he made enough for a party of ten, most of which is in the fridge. So even if his physical self does not show it, he's at least aware of the two.
*Nom**Crunch**Mom* ... The look on the other two's faces show a sense of enormous happiness upon biting the sandwich, the fine bits of bacon and turkey and ham together with the light crunchy lettuce and soft tomato on a white bread shaped in triangles, plus your preference of mayo makes it simply nice. And that's only the first sandwich for there are much more variants that are on the plate! Hmm! It's been decided, they will be excellent lunches! Ha, he must have thought it all out before hand.
You, as do the others, lick your hands after parting with the small piece of delight when your brother makes an offhand comment, "Today is might be over thirty-five. Take care of yourselves. Nothing big on the to do list. Don't cause trouble." The last two sentences were most directed to you than the others as it doesn't make sense for them to be roped in with what bro does now.
Sooooo, free day? Free day! Ah, but what are you gonna do?

Awesome.
Never question the importance of feeling clean to a woman.

"Ahh, I feel so much better!" You all say at once
Kek. Bro ain't that domestic.

Imagine if if Girls Und Panzer had a stereotypical SV Protagonist. Or if Paladin quest wasn't ahistorical. I tagged you because the Protagonist made a reference to playing a tabletop tank game with her brother.

After finishing breakfast and figuring out what to do for the day, you are hit with the single most adult thing you can think of, work. Ugh... though you'll be going to Oorai's this time. Yes, for the tanks! In a sudden event, you smack the table for theatrical effect, "Comrades! I share with you knowledge that our companion school ship, Oorai, may have some tanks lying about. I have yet to confirm as I had other pressing matter to attend to, but now I ask of thee! Would you two like to come with me to check and see if there are tanks we can use? I think three heads with eyes would be very helpful, if we can find them that is." Your eyeballs go to brah in which he doesn't do anything but scroll his mouse wheel. So much for his direct support in the matter.
"Sure, I'll go!" Hitomi beams with her hand in the air. One down.
Next, is Emi agreeing as well, "I may as well. Honestly, I hope this doesn't end up with nothing in the end. Two schools without tanks? I sure don't think my luck is that bad." Neither do you, but here you are. Well, better to rely on skill than luck anyhow. "I'm assuming you did your research already."
"Yup! Here. Still, not much but it's something." You pass your phone over to Emi with what info you have stored already on screen.
With you gang assembled, you forward a text to Anzu about your purpose and get a positive reply back soon after, plus some details on the abandoned building that the earlier Senshado club used. Excellent, now all you need is transportation. Again, you gawk in silence at your elite sibling at the table along with the others though Emi and Hitomi are more like WTF are they doing. After a minute of the sounds of the laptop's keyboard being pressed and the mouse being clicked, Alex ultimately closes his mobile computer and packs his things from the table and exits the room, only muttering, "Meet at the helipad" when he gets up. Huzzah! Helicopter ride!

Ship land, hooo! And touchdown at a wide clearing between a track field, several buildings, trees. A most good landing. You slide to door open and exit the loud Huey with some caution to a surprised student body in the area. Uh, looks like a mix of track and others. Hmm, all is clear. "GREETINGS! I COME FROM THE LAND DOWN UNDER!" The whirly propellers are too loud and suppress your dumb reference as the pilot and passengers leave the family helo in an orderly fashion. As the engine dies down, you turn to your companions and bellow out, "OKAY! OUR OBJECTIVE! IS! RIGHT!" You take a moment to find the building Anzu sent some red brick warehouse that's right behind you, fantastic! "UH, THERE!" You point to the randomly selected number two semi-rusty green garage door that is the guardian of the building. No matter, it shall be passed by your divine rights! "Onward!" Also, you feel Winter's presence disappear, as expected of him.
"Hip, hip, hurray!" Please be tanks.
"Uh, Banzai, I guess." Please be tanks.
Please be tanks. You pray hard, if that's even possible, while you pull the door open enough for you to get inside but it won't budge! Additional hands come in support! Alright, MORE POWER! Slowly the doors creak as it opens in probably twenty years, and you can see shapes inside. Boxes, mostly, but there's one box that boxes the other boxes AND that is, ze German box of WWII. Early model, Panzer IV, has come to your view in all of its neglected body.
(Minus Miho of course)
Waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! That is your soul crying out and probably the same with the machine spirit residing in Panzer-chan. Waaaahhhggghhhh! The rust! The tracks! Wheels! Gun! Machine guns! *Intense soul hyperventilation*
"Ah! Emi look! A Panzer! And it's mostly intact!" The optimist comes running to the front hull and starts going over the entire outside area full with spirit. "It's like the one we used with everyone before!"
"Panzer IV and in bad shape by the looks of it. But, even if it's in bad shape, it can be rebuilt. We finally have something that is a tank." Emi is right! Mighty warrior! We shall Frankenstein you to life!
"One small step for the Corp, a giant leap for imperial glory." You whisper to yourself and prepare to photograph the tank and send it to the Oorai council. "Tank found. Need repair. Will continue to hunt for more.' Once your soul has been properly centered and Hitomi has finished making her runs, you prepare yourself for the investigation of a lifetime!
Broken Panzer IV E acquired!

Walking, walking, walking...
Upon walking through the school's parking lot...
You, wide eyed: "..." Who the fuck leaves a tank in the open? Like, there's no warning signs! Children could get hurt.
Emi, disbelief: "..." Never seen this tank before... How does it work? What was it called?
Hitomi, smiles: "... Well, that was easy. Another one in the bag." Well, a tank is a tank!
Type 3 Chi-Nu found! Operational capacity, seems fine! Logged and sent.

We're walking! Walking! Some more! Oh look here, what do we see in this place?
You, WTF face: "Who the hell puts a tank in the animal pen?" Like the rabbits could eat the rubber? Maybe? Hurt themselves? Eh, plausible.
Emi, wry smile: "This school's old club members must have been quite the team."
Hitomi, immersed in bunny petting: "Cute! Emi-chan, look at the rabbits! Aren't they cute?"
M3 Lee, get! Alright, that's the morning, time to regroup!
---
Oorai Council room....
Gathered here are yours truly and cohorts, Brother!, and Oorai's team. Here, you share your findings with the members of a new league, from there on it's really down to Alex and Anzu to cooperate. You had assumptions that neither got along but to your surprise, all is well when the two talk all civilized and such. Or what counts as one, considering your kinsman. "A Panzer IV, Tiger, M3 Lee, Type 3 Chi-Nu. One short of a minimal team..." Bro mumbles and reflects the present tank situation, gently tapping the side of his phone as he does The Thinker.
Meanwhile, you get some nice appreciation from the president, "Ah, good job! Thank you for finding some tanks, Alex-chan. And uh, Hitomi-chan, Emi-chan was it? Thank you, too." She bows to all of you and you return the gesture.
Yuzumoto beams and throws up a peace, "No problem! The sooner we sort out our problems, the better."
Emi gives a weak initial reply before changing the subject, "Y-yeah, no problem. So, we need to get these tanks up and running. Shouldn't be an issue, right?"
The PR manager jumps in with mostly good news on that end, "Our motor club should be able to fix up the tanks here with that leftover parts in storage, but about your Tiger... I'm afraid that's beyond what they can handle for now." Understandable, with the NO TURRET issue, you have no hard feelings.
But.... You look to your ever quiet brother, still pondering. Thinking. About what? No Life? Okay, no, seriously, could he hurry it up? It's scaring the oth- "Alex."
"Present!" Ho, must be important!
Choose 1:
[] Get Miho. Through the use of subterfuge, Alexander will 'convince' Miho to come to the Oorai school ship. Then, well, it's up to you on what to do after that.
-[] Plan to get Miho, write-in. How do? What say? Full assault? Uses bro as bait?
-[] Dice roll Manipulation+Subterfuge:2+0-1(penalty)=1, may the dice be kind.
[] Funding plan. Money makes the world go round and you need it too. Prepare a fundraising event. The some of the tanks should be ready by then.
-[] You need the $$$. But how to attract them? What's a good honey to attract bees? Write-in. Interviews? Past exploits? Models?
-[] Hmm, can Kadotani help with this?
[] Recruitment. Tanks need crew, and you have tanks but no crew. But from which initial school will you initially pull from? (Can be folded into the funding plan)
-[] Oorai.
-[] Bellwall.
[] Become the Tank Commander, which is kinda of a step down from your secretary position, but you get to focus on tanks only. Of course, this means you're subject to the will of both Brother and Anzu and Bellwall's representative.

Three days later in the special place in the school ship Oorai... it's a wardrobe backstage where a festival is taking place. And for some reason, you want the room very dark.
"It'll be fine!" You chide to Alex with the full knowledge that you are super glad not to be in his position as the main character on stage. If all goes according to plan, which is not likely but who cares, then a new commander shall come and the schools will be in good additional hands. Anyway, his role should be easy, he needs only to do sick cool body poses and not say anything. Like how he is normally!
Alex, in a highly muffled voice thanks to the head piece, tries to say something, "Ah-"
-but he is interrupted by you! "No buttocks!" You will not let bro take a single millimeter to get out of his all important role. It is for the good of all! "This is all for the people! Also, it's the only way you can get out of work. Shhhhhhh! I tell no one." You give one look at his costume and think, it's missing something. But what? Oh right! A sign! "Hang on, let me get this piece of paper," 'Please gently punch/kick' and slapped to his front and back. "...and done! Alex. You. Dah. Man! Now shut up so the VA can do his job. Don't fuck this up." Preparations are finished, now for the moment of truth.
---
You sneaky sneak your way to the audience room through a side door, where many children and parents linger around for the show, plus some auxiliary students. It's the usual racket you can expect from both. None of them are... *GASP* Miho sighted! All alone, she is. Very happy, she appears. Good... good... you slip back to the shadows... eh, you hold your current position behind the door. Much as you wish to pounce the girl, patience is a virtue. It's time for the show...
"Hey! You bumped into me! You better apologize!" The bear's VA says on the speakers as you brother expertly points his bandaged bear hands at the group of stuffed cats. Additionally, an English VA plays after that. Best of both worlds you suppose.
"Huh?"
"Let's get this punk!"
"Disrespecting ain't tolerated in this hood!"
Oh wow, you did not expect that coming from the actors themselves. Time for the grand finale!
"I'll show you! Ahhh! Ugh." The bear attempts to throw a punch, it hits the air, and his feet coincidently take to the air for a brief second. *THUD* Boko has fallen and he can't get up! *Rapid Kicking*
"Get him!"
"Welcome to Dubai!"
"T's coming to teach PE!"
"Everyone, give me strength...!" *More cartoon attack sounds* You personally interchange it with DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA or Bruce Lee shouts and combo effects.
Ppppppppppppppppphhhhhhhhhhhhhffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff! Ah! Ha! Oh, gotta, not, lauuugggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh kakkakakakakakakakakak! Hagghhh, you're not the only teenager trying to hold it in among the crowd. Holy shit, Bro got Boko-ed. You did not do your research on the topic matter! Oh, you're choking! Ow, it hurts! But too funny! It's like the old cartoons!
"You can do it!"
"Get them, Boko!"
"You can do it, Boko."
"Fight fight fight!"
"Get some today!"
"Think of the Alamo."
The young boys and girls start cheering and yelling together, it almost tears you up outside. Inside, you've already had tears from laughing at this comedy, made better since Alex is in the suit. Ah, he'll be fine. Your faith in him is strong and unshattering. Perfect, just perfect. Chhheheheheheheheheh!
Boko springs back to life! "Here it comes! I feel better than ever! It's all thanks to everyone! Now I'll sho- ah oph!" And his face takes root to the floorboard. Commence more kicking and sound effects. The beating takes only a few more seconds and the elite soccer players head off to do something else, leaving Boko all alone. "Aw, I lost again. I'll get stronger next time!" The red curtain closes and the lights dim back on. The act is finally over. Inside though, it'll never be over. You have become....
[] A Boko fan. Now you understand Miho a little bit more.
[] Hahahhahahahahahahahha, oh, ow, ow, ow, are you sadistic? Kekekekekeke! Oh karma is so gonna get you.
Quickly you take to the backstage and gasp as much breath to control your splendid soul and mind from going too out of control. Okay, okay, okay, focus Alexandra Winters! Brother still has more to do! He can take another beating in life, hahaha hahaha aah! Too much! Too much! You shouldn't try to do beat puns for a while. You have no idea how Miho will join Oorai because of this, but all must be well since you manage to get a glimpse of her shining face.
"Hey Alex! It's time to get back out there! I may have spotted some of the executives. Better hurry..."
---
"Boko!" Bro has been tackled by a kid! Now for a picture! That'll be five ninety-nine and it comes in this Boko frame!
"Boko!"
"It's Boko!"
A small duo, brother an' sister, has attached to Alex! Picture time! That'll be ten ninety-nine and comes with this exclusive key chain for two! Your plan is genius! Make money and get a Miho. Oh, for shame, she's at the far end of the line. Hang in there Miho! Fortunately for her, it's not a long line so her wait time is short. You take some more pictures of kids and Boko while making the mullahs to pay for new tanks or keeping the budget black. It's mostly the second one right now.
Your Oorai senses tingle! Quickly, to where left, you share eye contact with the Council members on patrol, posting that all is well in your area. Anzu acknowledges it and cooly continues her way with the others. Just then, as you return your eyes to the stage, you feel someone tug the brim of your pants. Upon looking, you find a frilly dressed girl with a mini Boko close to her chest.
"Um..." She fidgets and sheepishly eyes between Boko and the camera pocketed inside Boko.
You get the hint, no need to waste time with beating around the bush. Gah, you did it again. "Would you like me to take a picture of you and Boko? Ah, would you like me to take a picture of you and Boko?" The little girl lifts her smiling face and nods twice before handing you her camera and going besides the playa, getting all them popularity beats. "Cheese!" Aw, so cute.
"Oh, I would like this one." She points to the deluxe package worthy fifty-five fifty. Almost you let your mouth drop but are able to contain that surprise. Boy, them rich kids, are ya right? Well, you ain't complaining when she hands you the bills. Ain't your money to spend! Jesus Christ! Okay okay okay.
Next, and finally, is Miho's turn for the photo shoot. Hopefully your disguise as a photographer employee with sun glasses.... who the hell are you kidding? It doesn't matter one bit! If she finds out, you'll deal with it then. "Excuse me! I-I would like the deluxe and could you also use my camera!?" Miho no notice your real self, the true self, see. You so close! Yet she so far! But she looks super happy! Guess that makes it satisfactory.
"Cheese!" *SNIP*
ACHTUNG!
[] You can't take it anymore! Pounce Miho! After processing the receipt, glomp her!
-[] And say/do what? Write-in.
[] Bro has yet to do his part! It's all on him! Get beat up Boko! "Miho go beat Boko up gently! It's fine! The sign says so!"
[] Plan B, Emi and Hitomi bounce her like, uh, bouncy bounce. Hang on, lost your train of thought. Oh right, you envision the yuri coming to save the day.
-[X] Bro acts as bait. He gets Miho to enroll in Oorai, and get on the boat ASAP.

The plan, see. Nyeah see. Social subterfuge+manipulation for bro and you. Fate, 1d10: 3. Thank god it's not only on him. 1d10: 9. All you need is one. So thought process, what does Miho like? Get the thing that Miho likes. Bro becomes bait, somehow, then things happen, then profit!
Three days later in the special place in the school ship Oorai... it's a wardrobe backstage where a festival is taking place. And for some reason, you want the room very dark.
"It'll be fine!" You chide to Alex with the full knowledge that you are super glad not to be in his position as the main character on stage. If all goes according to plan, which is not likely but who cares, then a new commander shall come and the schools will be in good additional hands. Anyway, his role should be easy, he needs only to do sick cool body poses and not say anything. Like how he is normally!
Alex, in a highly muffled voice thanks to the head piece, tries to say something, "Ah-"
-but he is interrupted by you! "No buttocks!" You will not let bro take a single millimeter to get out of his all important role. It is for the good of all! "This is all for the people! Also, it's the only way you can get out of work. Shhhhhhh! I tell no one." You give one look at his costume and think, it's missing something. But what? Oh right! A sign! "Hang on, let me get this piece of paper," 'Please gently punch/kick' and slapped to his front and back. "...and done! Alex. You. Dah. Man! Now shut up so the VA can do his job. Don't fuck this up." Preparations are finished, now for the moment of truth.
---
You sneaky sneak your way to the audience room through a side door, where many children and parents linger around for the show, plus some auxiliary students. It's the usual racket you can expect from both. None of them are... *GASP* Miho sighted! All alone, she is. Very happy, she appears. Good... good... you slip back to the shadows... eh, you hold your current position behind the door. Much as you wish to pounce the girl, patience is a virtue. It's time for the show...
"Hey! You bumped into me! You better apologize!" The bear's VA says on the speakers as you brother expertly points his bandaged bear hands at the group of stuffed cats. Additionally, an English VA plays after that. Best of both worlds you suppose.
"Huh?"
"Let's get this punk!"
"Disrespecting ain't tolerated in this hood!"
Oh wow, you did not expect that coming from the actors themselves. Time for the grand finale!
"I'll show you! Ahhh! Ugh." The bear attempts to throw a punch, it hits the air, and his feet coincidently take to the air for a brief second. *THUD* Boko has fallen and he can't get up! *Rapid Kicking*
"Get him!"
"Welcome to Dubai!"
"T's coming to teach PE!"
"Everyone, give me strength...!" *More cartoon attack sounds* You personally interchange it with DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA or Bruce Lee shouts and combo effects.
Ppppppppppppppppphhhhhhhhhhhhhffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff! Ah! Ha! Oh, gotta, not, lauuugggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh kakkakakakakakakakakak! Hagghhh, you're not the only teenager trying to hold it in among the crowd. Holy shit, Bro got Boko-ed. You did not do your research on the topic matter! Oh, you're choking! Ow, it hurts! But too funny! It's like the old cartoons!
"You can do it!"
"Get them, Boko!"
"You can do it, Boko."
"Fight fight fight!"
"Get some today!"
"Think of the Alamo."
The young boys and girls start cheering and yelling together, it almost tears you up outside. Inside, you've already had tears from laughing at this comedy, made better since Alex is in the suit. Ah, he'll be fine. Your faith in him is strong and unshattering. Perfect, just perfect. Chhheheheheheheheheh!
Boko springs back to life! "Here it comes! I feel better than ever! It's all thanks to everyone! Now I'll sho- ah oph!" And his face takes root to the floorboard. Commence more kicking and sound effects. The beating takes only a few more seconds and the elite soccer players head off to do something else, leaving Boko all alone. "Aw, I lost again. I'll get stronger next time!" The red curtain closes and the lights dim back on. The act is finally over. Inside though, it'll never be over. You have become....
[] A Boko fan. Now you understand Miho a little bit more.
[] Hahahhahahahahahahahha, oh, ow, ow, ow, are you sadistic? Kekekekekeke! Oh karma is so gonna get you.
Quickly you take to the backstage and gasp as much breath to control your splendid soul and mind from going too out of control. Okay, okay, okay, focus Alexandra Winters! Brother still has more to do! He can take another beating in life, hahaha hahaha aah! Too much! Too much! You shouldn't try to do beat puns for a while. You have no idea how Miho will join Oorai because of this, but all must be well since you manage to get a glimpse of her shining face.
"Hey Alex! It's time to get back out there! I may have spotted some of the executives. Better hurry..."
---
"Boko!" Bro has been tackled by a kid! Now for a picture! That'll be five ninety-nine and it comes in this Boko frame!
"Boko!"
"It's Boko!"
A small duo, brother an' sister, has attached to Alex! Picture time! That'll be ten ninety-nine and comes with this exclusive key chain for two! Your plan is genius! Make money and get a Miho. Oh, for shame, she's at the far end of the line. Hang in there Miho! Fortunately for her, it's not a long line so her wait time is short. You take some more pictures of kids and Boko while making the mullahs to pay for new tanks or keeping the budget black. It's mostly the second one right now.
Your Oorai senses tingle! Quickly, to where left, you share eye contact with the Council members on patrol, posting that all is well in your area. Anzu acknowledges it and cooly continues her way with the others. Just then, as you return your eyes to the stage, you feel someone tug the brim of your pants. Upon looking, you find a frilly dressed girl with a mini Boko close to her chest.
"Um..." She fidgets and sheepishly eyes between Boko and the camera pocketed inside Boko.
You get the hint, no need to waste time with beating around the bush. Gah, you did it again. "Would you like me to take a picture of you and Boko? Ah, would you like me to take a picture of you and Boko?" The little girl lifts her smiling face and nods twice before handing you her camera and going besides the playa, getting all them popularity beats. "Cheese!" Aw, so cute.
"Oh, I would like this one." She points to the deluxe package worthy fifty-five fifty. Almost you let your mouth drop but are able to contain that surprise. Boy, them rich kids, are ya right? Well, you ain't complaining when she hands you the bills. Ain't your money to spend! Jesus Christ! Okay okay okay.
Next, and finally, is Miho's turn for the photo shoot. Hopefully your disguise as a photographer employee with sun glasses.... who the hell are you kidding? It doesn't matter one bit! If she finds out, you'll deal with it then. "Excuse me! I-I would like the deluxe and could you also use my camera!?" Miho no notice your real self, the true self, see. You so close! Yet she so far! But she looks super happy! Guess that makes it satisfactory.
"Cheese!" *SNIP*
ACHTUNG!
[] You can't take it anymore! Pounce Miho! After processing the receipt, glomp her!
-[] And say/do what? Write-in.
[] Bro has yet to do his part! It's all on him! Get beat up Boko! "Miho go beat Boko up gently! It's fine! The sign says so!"
[] Plan B, Emi and Hitomi bounce her like, uh, bouncy bounce. Hang on, lost your train of thought. Oh right, you envision the yuri coming to save the day.

Oh good lord.

Daaaaaw.Upon looking, you find a frilly dressed girl with a mini Boko close to her chest.

You turn around to do some shady, business dealings... yes, very much so.
'Team two, on you'
'Bro too unreliable'
'And still in costume'
Plan B is away, all hope goes to them now. "Sorry for the wait! Here's Boko bear, and your photo with Boko frame, and keychain, and coffee mug, and complimentary churro. Enjoy!" You unload the goods to Miho and she excitingly goes about her merry way. Checking the clock, it's about time to shut down this pop stand and go in STALKER mode. "Oh, Boko, we closing shop. Ya go do whatever, I'm gonna hang behind team two. K bye." As you begin your shadowing, you get glimpses of some band of girls from Bellwall but they are of no consequence to you. So, adios.
It's happy hour in Oorai's market district, all thanks to moi, and unfortunately, it's very crowded with tourists and shoppers, making it a wee bit too hard to find where Miho went off to. Curses! Curses!
You go with the flow, better to become one with the people and not spend all day fighting the forces of CHAOS, and not so long after you manage to see Miho taking cover by an unpopulated alleyway. And just in time, Hitomi and Emi come in via stage right. Now if you could get closer.... closer.... aw come on!
---
"Uh, I don't know if I can do this." The German-Japanese girl stalls upon the sight of Miho, alone and being happy with her items. Too happy perhaps. Honestly, should she even intrude? Not to mention that she herself isn't beaming with joy and self-confidence.
Her friend easily sees the hesitation and grabs her hand, tugging her to their old tank commander, "Come on, Emi-chan! Let's at least go say hi to her!"
Ah, how unlike me. "Alright! Let's ambush her! If she didn't remember our promise I'll really let her have it." At what speed is allowable in the crowd, the two march up to the flank of Miho and nothing. Neither Emi says a word nor Miho notices the presence of her childhood friends. Awkwardly, Emi tries forcing a smile, only for it to be more of the smug nature and Hitomi quickly signals her problem with her face.
They go back and forth with a variety of tactical hand motions until Miho senses something amiss and turns around. "Eh?"
"Ah."
"Ah!"
Pppppaaaauuuusssseeee. "Emi...-chan? Hitomi?" Miho has to blink ten times to really think about believe what she's seeing in front of her.
... The three bunglingly stare at each other as people go pass without so much as a look, except for you know who. Hitomi acts first of the lot and closes in to welcome glomp Miho, "It's Miho-chan for real!" The Nishizumi is unable to move for various mental reasons and is quickly caught by the swifter one and held tight so no escape is possible yet not so hard that she spills her hard earned stuff. "It's been forever! How are you? Doing well? Look, Emi-chan is here too! Emi, say hi!"
Being put in the spotlight too soon, Nakasuga fumbles her words like dropping a four pounder, "Eh!? Er, umm. Ah, like, it's been a while?"
Slowly, Miho's mind registers that, in fact, her old time friends are really besides her, "Ah, yeah. What are you two doing here?"
"Well, we go to school here, Miho-chan!" Hitomi states as a matter of fact. "By the way, why are you here Miho?"
"Me? Um...... for Boko." Barely above a whisper, the former tanker answers while trying to bring up the bear to hide behind.
"Ah, how cute. Right Emi-chan?" Hitomi nudges Emi to join in the conversation, at least in an attempt.
"Uh, yeah, sure. Hey, how about we go somewhere with fewer people? So we can actually, talk in peace."

At a park overlooking the ocean, it's reasonable busy but compared to the festival, it's quite lax with people mostly walking to get to their next destination. The trio park underneath a tree for shade and to have brunch. As you cannot get close, you'll have to rely on phone tapping.
Hitomi: "So Miho-chan, you go to Oorai, but not this Oorai?"
Miho: "Hmm, the one on land."
Emi: "So that's gotta be confusing. Are you doing Senshado there?"
Miho: "Sen-! Ah, no. They don't have a club there."
Emi: "Tsk."
Hitomi: "Ahhh, so you left Kuromorimine then. Didn't they win last year's nationals though? The tenth time, right? Why did you leave?"
Miho: "Ah, things didn't turn out so great afterward. I needed... something like a break from Senshado."
Emi: "Did you forget our promise from back then? The one we all meet up again?"
Hitomi: "Ah, we're missing Chi-chan though! You're thinking too forward, Emi-chan!"
Emi: "Geh... Hitomi! That's not, ah, anyway... how should I say..."
Action:
[] Text that there's a tank showing in Oorai tomorrow for potential volunteers. Have them invite Miho and dazzle her in the awesome of tanks.
[] 'When you love something, let it go.' If Miho really doesn't want to play, it hurts your soul but you shouldn't force her. Motherfucking bro was right.
[] Coincidently drop in on their picnic and do something? Hopefully not horrible or traumatizing?
-[] Write-in.
[] 'Bro! We're losing Miho! Do something!' Cause you're honestly out of good ideas now. 'Present yourself to Miho!'
-[] As Boko!
-[] As yourself.
[] Do nothing. Faith in comrades! Believe in others! Believe in Emi and Hitomi to fulfill the objective.

You had enough stalking for one day, it's time for hugs, you are certain that Miho needs one. You creep out of the bushes that were your cover and approach the three girls under their tree with the utmost caution.
"You'll get back into doing Senshado, right?" Emi finally asks the somewhat downtrodden Miho and critical question.
Not wanting to hear the answer, no maybes, noes, only a solid yes is acceptable but going by the conversation, unlikely, you sneak a mighty rear one hand hug! "Caught ya!"
"Awwah!" Miho shouts before turning her bewildered face to you and recognizing the face of a friend. "Huh? Alex-chan?"
"Oh Miho, Miho, Miho, you say that you're aren't doing all that good as a commander. But I, the one Alexandra, remember you teaching me the ways of Kuro, and I distinctly remember our final battle of the Japanese Nationals that you did not get blasted and so helpfully left the enemy exposed. I know you're not exactly Gilgamesh, but you really should be more proud in how good at Senshado you are!" Lightly and in a playful manner, you tap the tip of her nose. "Which you absolutely are and anybody who says otherwise is dead wrong. Including you! Why the glum? You weren't like this when I left." You release Miho from the hug and take a spot beside Emi, sitting rather unrefined or more American as you prefer it with you legs crossed. You had pants on, like you give one. That said, it appears Miho is phasing out of reality to compute your presence.
"Hey, why are you here?" Emi whispers to you during the period of Miho's brain resetting.
You softly reply back, "Seemed important. Also, our phones were running out of power."
"Ah, fine..."
"Yeah. Oh, looks like she's back." Miho blinks!
"Shhh."
"Shhh."
"Shh!" Ah, you left out Hitomi.
Miho turns her head to the three that surround her, only focusing you the longest, then asking, "Why are you here?"
How should you word this... "Oh, uh, I help run the school'ssssssssss festival! And I so happen to be checking up on my good friends that are conveniently here, in the same place, with me, yeah." A ♪Ding-a-ling♪ comes from Miho's right side which you presume to be a phone. "Miho, phone's ringing."
She manages to flounder out the phone from her pocket and brings it up to her ear. Sadly, it's only a one sided conversation. "Hello? ... Ah, sorry... Um, I'm at a park... Yeah... Uh huh... I'll try to find my way... Bye for now."
When she hangs up, Hitomi gets the jump on her with a question that you would have asked, "Who was that Miho-chan?"
"Ah, my classmates. I came with them for the fair, and uh, got separated from them."
You were understanding to Miho's situation, unlike Emi who says a tidbit that you've yet to know, "Miho... do you still get lost when not in a tank?" Yuzumoto has a mild grin when she hears it, while you ponder if Miho has ever shown such a fact. Then again you've haven't been stalking her when she's alone, yet. PLus the one time you did it was a not so good time with scary lady, uuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
"Ah heh, well, not too much. But I really should go find them since we're staying at a hotel together." At least she's making friends. "Ah, could you help me find... uh..." Her face warps when her phone pings a text. "... 'An amazingly handsome boy'."
"What?"
Nope! Can't help her in that regard. You like pretty girls, but that does not mean you do not like pretty boys. Therefore, by the going of the word handsome, you've yet to meet one. "Hey, get the person to send coordinates or a picture of the person. The wording is too vague." Miho pings once more, this time you look over her shoulder along with the others and see...
'Look at him!'
'Could it be fate?'
'Miho, come quick! He can speak Japanese really good!'
Then the picture of someone closely related in normal attire is posted. Now you can find where Miho's classmates are.
---
You, Hitomi, Emi, and Miho tumble into the on slaught of market crowds. The only thing holding all of you together is the ancient tradition of holding hands. Anyway, after fun times trying to not get lost, and buying some food items, ho ho ho, who says no to good cookies, company and you are in a more quieter place facing a girl squealing to herself behind another girl and there's bro and another dude, Latino, you think going by skin, totally racist but whatever, chatting quietly as they sit against a wooden fence.
The girl with the ginger hair, the one that looks like she's about to pounce of the guys, notices Miho and sprints way too fast over to your group. With way more energy than you anticipated, she keeps yapping about, "Miporin! You're back! Hey hey hey, check out this hunk! He's really in shape and can understand Japanese! I've can't believe America had a guy in the works. Also, I kinda got a look behind his shirt, tee hee! But he's super shy, I think, so you should really be nice..."
Oh god are you like that from time to time!? Anyway, Alex is signaling you and the rest to come over so you leave Miho for the time being and give a bow to the one... very nice hair that one has. Long, black, nicely kept. You wouldn't like having long hair, but long hair is pretty. "I take it you all talked to Miho but did not have enough time for a long one."
"Uh, yeah."
"We really need more time with Miho-chan!"
You agree on all accounts, then you really notice the other guy wearing your schools semi-official uniform, "Damn right as they said. And Bro, where you meet these girls? And who's your friend?"
"Jesus." As in the Spanish Hey-Zeus pronunciation. "But something came up so your talk with Miho is going to be put on hold."
"Hey, that's not in the plan." Emi talks back but goes no further when brother stands up.
"We have more tanks. Working ones." Okay, everyone is paying attention to what Winters has to say. "Tomorrow morning to the afternoon, President Kadotani wants a presentation for new recruits. It's on you three cause I'm busy and so is the President and there's nobody qualified enough that's free today or tomorrow."
Hitomi turns her head back to Miho, then back to bro, "But! But Miho!"
Emi though is quiet and clenching her fist, torn between tanks and Miho. JUST. LIKE. YOU.

-[] Tanks. Armored steeds are really needed.
-[] Miho. Must. Get. No. Butts. Dang the President and bro for ruining the moment!
[] Tanks tomorrow, Miho now! Or at least someone has to deal with her.
-[] You shall be the ambassador! You'll figure out a way. You have yet to retreat!
-[] Emi, go to Miho! But go with more passion!
-[] Hitomi is the social reliable one! She can do it!
-[] Bro! As consul, your word must be worth something! Get it done this week!
-[X] Gentle surprise hug from behind.
--[X] "That's wierd Miho, because I distinctly recall you saying you weren't doing all that good as a commander. Even though you were teaching me how to be an officer, and your plan at the finals left the enemy backside totally exposed. I know you're not exactly Gilgamesh, but you should be proud in how good you are!"
--[X] "Which you absolutely are, and anyone who says otherwise is dead wrong."
---
You had enough stalking for one day, it's time for hugs, you are certain that Miho needs one. You creep out of the bushes that were your cover and approach the three girls under their tree with the utmost caution.
"You'll get back into doing Senshado, right?" Emi finally asks the somewhat downtrodden Miho and critical question.
Not wanting to hear the answer, no maybes, noes, only a solid yes is acceptable but going by the conversation, unlikely, you sneak a mighty rear one hand hug! "Caught ya!"
"Awwah!" Miho shouts before turning her bewildered face to you and recognizing the face of a friend. "Huh? Alex-chan?"
"Oh Miho, Miho, Miho, you say that you're aren't doing all that good as a commander. But I, the one Alexandra, remember you teaching me the ways of Kuro, and I distinctly remember our final battle of the Japanese Nationals that you did not get blasted and so helpfully left the enemy exposed. I know you're not exactly Gilgamesh, but you really should be more proud in how good at Senshado you are!" Lightly and in a playful manner, you tap the tip of her nose. "Which you absolutely are and anybody who says otherwise is dead wrong. Including you! Why the glum? You weren't like this when I left." You release Miho from the hug and take a spot beside Emi, sitting rather unrefined or more American as you prefer it with you legs crossed. You had pants on, like you give one. That said, it appears Miho is phasing out of reality to compute your presence.
"Hey, why are you here?" Emi whispers to you during the period of Miho's brain resetting.
You softly reply back, "Seemed important. Also, our phones were running out of power."
"Ah, fine..."
"Yeah. Oh, looks like she's back." Miho blinks!
"Shhh."
"Shhh."
"Shh!" Ah, you left out Hitomi.
Miho turns her head to the three that surround her, only focusing you the longest, then asking, "Why are you here?"
How should you word this... "Oh, uh, I help run the school'ssssssssss festival! And I so happen to be checking up on my good friends that are conveniently here, in the same place, with me, yeah." A ♪Ding-a-ling♪ comes from Miho's right side which you presume to be a phone. "Miho, phone's ringing."
She manages to flounder out the phone from her pocket and brings it up to her ear. Sadly, it's only a one sided conversation. "Hello? ... Ah, sorry... Um, I'm at a park... Yeah... Uh huh... I'll try to find my way... Bye for now."
When she hangs up, Hitomi gets the jump on her with a question that you would have asked, "Who was that Miho-chan?"
"Ah, my classmates. I came with them for the fair, and uh, got separated from them."
You were understanding to Miho's situation, unlike Emi who says a tidbit that you've yet to know, "Miho... do you still get lost when not in a tank?" Yuzumoto has a mild grin when she hears it, while you ponder if Miho has ever shown such a fact. Then again you've haven't been stalking her when she's alone, yet. PLus the one time you did it was a not so good time with scary lady, uuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
"Ah heh, well, not too much. But I really should go find them since we're staying at a hotel together." At least she's making friends. "Ah, could you help me find... uh..." Her face warps when her phone pings a text. "... 'An amazingly handsome boy'."
"What?"
Nope! Can't help her in that regard. You like pretty girls, but that does not mean you do not like pretty boys. Therefore, by the going of the word handsome, you've yet to meet one. "Hey, get the person to send coordinates or a picture of the person. The wording is too vague." Miho pings once more, this time you look over her shoulder along with the others and see...
'Look at him!'
'Could it be fate?'
'Miho, come quick! He can speak Japanese really good!'
Then the picture of someone closely related in normal attire is posted. Now you can find where Miho's classmates are.

You, Hitomi, Emi, and Miho tumble into the on slaught of market crowds. The only thing holding all of you together is the ancient tradition of holding hands. Anyway, after fun times trying to not get lost, and buying some food items, ho ho ho, who says no to good cookies, company and you are in a more quieter place facing a girl squealing to herself behind another girl and there's bro and another dude, Latino, you think going by skin, totally racist but whatever, chatting quietly as they sit against a wooden fence.
The girl with the ginger hair, the one that looks like she's about to pounce of the guys, notices Miho and sprints way too fast over to your group. With way more energy than you anticipated, she keeps yapping about, "Miporin! You're back! Hey hey hey, check out this hunk! He's really in shape and can understand Japanese! I've can't believe America had a guy in the works. Also, I kinda got a look behind his shirt, tee hee! But he's super shy, I think, so you should really be nice..."
Oh god are you like that from time to time!? Anyway, Alex is signaling you and the rest to come over so you leave Miho for the time being and give a bow to the one... very nice hair that one has. Long, black, nicely kept. You wouldn't like having long hair, but long hair is pretty. "I take it you all talked to Miho but did not have enough time for a long one."
"Uh, yeah."
"We really need more time with Miho-chan!"
You agree on all accounts, then you really notice the other guy wearing your schools semi-official uniform, "Damn right as they said. And Bro, where you meet these girls? And who's your friend?"
"Jesus." As in the Spanish Hey-Zeus pronunciation. "But something came up so your talk with Miho is going to be put on hold."
"Hey, that's not in the plan." Emi talks back but goes no further when brother stands up.
"We have more tanks. Working ones." Okay, everyone is paying attention to what Winters has to say. "Tomorrow morning to the afternoon, President Kadotani wants a presentation for new recruits. It's on you three cause I'm busy and so is the President and there's nobody qualified enough that's free today or tomorrow."
Hitomi turns her head back to Miho, then back to bro, "But! But Miho!"
Emi though is quiet and clenching her fist, torn between tanks and Miho. JUST. LIKE. YOU.
