UP DATE UP, UP DATE UP, UP DAAAAAAAATE~
No, I haven't been wasting time binge-reading DBZ. Why would you even think that?
______
How will you spend the rest of the day? (pick two)
[X] Call your mom, let her know that you made some friends and you survived the bus trip. That annoying woman is probably already worried sick about you.
-[X] Let her know that you'd like to talk to your gramps when you get a chance.
You noticed earlier that there was a line of pay-phone booths alongside an outside wall. Which gets you to thinking about how that annoying mother of yours has probably worried herself sick about you by now. Better check up on her, let Holly know that the bus ride didn't kill you and that you kind-of made a few friends among the underclassmen.
Most of the booths are already occupied, but fortunately there's still an open one. Damn, looks like you only have enough change on you at the moment for a couple of minutes. Not that you're really going to need much more time than that...
As you're putting in the money needed to make your call, you observe a note taped to the side of the box. "Because Youkai Academy is in a parallel dimension, all calls should be made long-distance. Please keep this in mind~"
Insert the coins. Push the buttons. Tolerate the dial to- barely a second before she picks up. Must've been sitting by the phone for... knowing that woman, probably since you got on the bus this morning, unless some other important matter grabbed her ankle and dragged her kicking and screaming out of the house.
"Hello, this is Kujo Holly speaking~"
Yeah, she sounds anxious, all right. Fifty thousand yen says, she doesn't have a care in her head except for you. Damn woman need to worry more about herself than just you.
"Hey mom. The bus trip didn't kill me. ...Although there was a bicycle that put in a pretty good effort."
There is a split-second pause, after which you are cruelly subjected to a scream of delight. You reflexively distance the receiver from your ear, but are too late to have really made a difference.
"Oh my god, this is the first time my baby ever called me from boarding school! I'm sooooo happy~~~"
"What a pain in the ass," you mutter under your breath.
"So how was your first day at your new school, JoJo?"
How to answer that...?
[x]Casually tell your mother that she sent you to a school for monsters that are scared shitless of your grampa. - 15
"...things are going fine, mom. Turns out Youkai Academy is a school by monsters, for monsters. Monsters that violently shit themselves when they hear that nickname, 'JoJo'. It gets to be a real pain in the ass. Most of the girls are annoying as hell, too."
"Wow, that sounds amazing~! Did you make any monster friends?"
...You can't tell if she thinks you're pulling her leg and is playing along, or if she's just taking what you say at face value without even thinking about it. Or maybe she thinks that by "monsters," you meant "total badasses mostly like myself". Honestly, it's hard to tell what goes through that woman's mind.
"Yeah, I guess I somehow wound up being friends with a couple of underclassmen. Tsukune's another human like me, he wound up being the boytoy for a wussy vampire chick."
"Oh my, that sounds so serious! Well, I hope you can be a reliable senpai for Tsukune, and show him by example what it means to be responsible in a relationship."
Oh
shit, if she's going to ask you about getting a girlfriend
one more time...! Better finish this up, pronto.
"Anyway, I was thinking it would be cool if you could tell Grandpa I'd like to talk to him about that martial arts thing he does, it sounds fun. Y'know, just, whenever."
Before she can say anything else, you hang up the phone with a bit more violence than is strictly necessary.

[X] You're frustrated with how you wound up handling that incident with Moka. Take a walk around campus to blow off some steam. Maybe bust some heads, if the situation should arise.
Man, you've had to deal with more-or-less one annoyance after another today, haven't you? Not five minutes off the school bus, a schoolgirl on a bike accidentally runs your face over. You just spoke with your mother, and she's as annoying as ever. That punk-ass underclassman tried picking a fight with your kohai.
People've been walking on eggshells around you
all damn day when they hear your name.
An on top of all that, you're still somewhat frustrated with how you wound up handling that incident with Moka during lunch. To try and blow off some steam, you decide to take a walk around campus.
Hands in your pockets, your dour mood naturally plastered onto your face (much like everything else you've ever felt
, not), the majority of fellow students give you a wide berth, whether they've already met you or not.
You find and pass by the outdoor pool, currently in use by the swimming club. Most of the members are fairly well-endowed women, a group of whom immediately stop what they're doing and start squealing for your attention once they catch sight of you. You grit your teeth, and try to ignore them. Don't they have the first clue of just how damn
annoying they are?
Evidently not, since they're still at it despite your obvious displeasure. After a few moments, you snap at them.
"SHUT THE HELL UP! YOU'RE GODDAMN ANNOYING!"
The girls gasp, before one goes all starry-eyed. "Ohmigawd, he talked to me!"
Another one pulls at her hair. "No, he was talking to
me!"
Damnit, it feels like no matter where the hell you go, women everywhere seem to act out the same fucking routine that you've seen a million times. At least their attention isn't directly on
you anymore...
You get the hell out of there while the getting's good, and next find yourself at a basketball court, where a game is in session.
One of the underclassmen timidly asks if you care to join in, but you decline.
You continue your walk around the grounds, briefly seeing a gargoyle-shaped ripoff of that statue, The Thinker.
At one point, you suddenly feel like the hairs on the back of your neck are standing up. Are you being watched? You quickly cast your gaze about, but there's nobody that you can see around you. Remembering that you're in a school for monsters, you also look up, scanning the nearby trees, and even the wall of the building above you. But you don't see anyone at all. "What a pain in the ass..."
You continue your exploration for the next several minutes, with no further encounters of note.
Just when you've more or less given up looking for trouble, you round a corner to find...
_______________
I need someone to roll SV 1d6 for "Encounter".
_______________
OK yeah, but it's not like there's many more options.
I mean I don't think going with a teacher would work (jk)
Nekonome-sensei IIRC is an unofficial member of Tsukune's harem (though it may just be a fanfic thing, I dunno), and Ririko-sensei is studying-sexual. The other teachers I can think of are male.
