[X]...yare yare daze.
"It's a real pain in the ass," you begin, "and quite frankly you three should be able to handle this by yourselves."
Kurumu looks shocked and betrayed, having apparently just jumped to the conclusion that you're about to tell her to screw herself.
You take out a cig, light it, and enjoy the nicotine rush for a moment.
"...but if that guy's making a nuisance of himself to my juniors, I guess I can't ignore it."
You can visibly see your words dawning on Kurumu, and she beams at you. Speaking objectively, that smile is a beautiful, beautiful thing. "I just knew we could count on you, senpai - you're the best!"
You suddenly find yourself being hugged very, very tightly. Just before you can summon the breath needed to actually tell her to screw herself, however, she backs off and is halfway to the door. ...damn that woman, you're not done with her yet!
"That said," you continue, "if he's really on the same kind of level as Moka, then only a total dumbass would try and take him on unprepared."
Kurumu nods at you, pleased with the amount of thought you're putting into this. "Yeah!, yeah!, we've already thought about that!"
Raising her index finger, as if to assume some kind of 'lecturing/explaining pose', she continues, "Werewolves are only at their strongest during a full moon, and we're almost halfway through the lunar cycle - so while it could still be dangerous to confront him tonight, I think we'll be able to get through it."
There's a bad taste in your mouth, and it ain't the cancer stick. Exhaling a cloud of smoke, you ask, "So your plan is to attack him when he's at his weakest?"
Kurumu looks positively scandalized. "What? No! We want to make him stop being a perverted sleaze, yeah, but we aren't planning on picking a fight with Morioka-senpai unless he makes us."
...Huh. You didn't expect that response. You get the sense that Aono's been rubbing off on her.
Kurumu then shifts her weight to one leg and leans forward, winking at you. You're pretty sure it's not meant to be flirtatious, though. "But just in case he does force the issue, we're planning to hit the library later to see if there's any other info we can dig up."
At this point, Mizore sees fit to remind you of her presence. "Sounds like you've got this all figured out, huh."
Kurumu taps a bicep in pride. "Of course - when it comes to journalistic investigations, you should know better than to underestimate members of the Newspaper Club!"
With hopeful eyes and a great big smile, Kurumu asks, "Soooo~, wanna come with?"
[]Go to the school library with Kurumu. You'll probably meet up with Moka and Aono on the way there.
[]Don't go to the school library with Kurumu. You'll still head out, but you feel like killing a little time, first.
You sigh. It's really bizarre, that you've let yourself get caught up in a petty little thing like this... but you also have to admit - it feels kind of good, to have your friends able to rely on you like this. ...Even if following up on those expectations can be a real pain in the ass.
