[ Cheering Eric on! Yeah! Wow Izumo's scary but it's okay, she's not scared of him... ]

[ex_longanimity327]

Watch your step, I said. [ mom mode is on, apparently. but he turns to Kougyoku. ] How'd you get up there, by the way?

[skilful]

[ tuuurning as well. he has an idea, but he's curious to hear too. ]

[capitulated]

[ he safely reaches the ground, of course.

but now he's just going to stand here in silence, one hand raised to the top of his hoodie.

should he pull it back down over his face and pretend he's not here or just. continue making faces, hmm. ]

[redsea]

[ Kougyoku looks away because her answer is embarrassing. ]

Eric and I were playing kemari. [ That's not the whole story. ]

[ex_longanimity327]

[ Izumo glances to the side once he notices Eric's down, and immediately reaches out to give him a light pat on the head before he turns back to Kougyoku. ]

And one of you kicked the ball a little too high, right?

[skilful]

And then Eric climbed up to get the ball [ but he couldn't get down ] and Kou-chan followed after, huh?

[capitulated]

[ so many headpats...

yes okay just going to. embarrassingly leave his hood as it is. kougyoku can explain. he'll just stand right here. ]

[redsea]

[ Kougyoku hangs her head, just as embarrassed as Eric is. They figured it out. ]

Yes... We're sorry.

[ex_longanimity327]

[ .... Izumo chuckles. ]

What for? You two were just playin' right? [ and Kougyoku gets a headpat herself. ]

[skilful]

Besides, nobody was hurt, right?

[ He still has his camera and it could still be recording. ]

[capitulated]

[ he did get hit in the face, but. ]

I'll go back inside.

[redsea]

Yeah... [ Too busy internalizing headpats from Izumo to form longer and more coherent sentences, sorry.

She'll thank Eric in a bit, but. Wait. ]

Um, when are Yata and Mikoto coming back? [ girl please... ]

[ex_longanimity327]

Probably at the end of the day.

[ but he raises an eyebrow at Totsuka in question, as if silently asking, do you know this? ]

[skilful]

[ Totsuka doesn't know, but if he has to guess... ]

Late?

[redsea]

[ Kougyoku makes a displeased sound. But then, she bows. ]

Thank you, Izumo, Tatara.

[ For getting her down the tree. She heads toward Eric's direction to speak to him. ]

Eric!

[capitulated]

[ oh. he's being talked to.

eric had. intended to just go inside! but he'll take a moment to look over to kougyoku, sure. questionably. ]

What?

[redsea]

[ When he looks her way, she looks the other direction. ]

Thank you... for playing with me today.

[capitulated]

[ now he's embarrassed, too. thanks.

still. looking towards her though. ]



Sure. [ the ball is still on the roof. ]

[redsea]

[ Walking past him and heading inside now.

They can get Yata to get the ball for them later, whatever. ]
