And we're back on the path again. I think I might have rambled a little too much but I couldn't find anything that HAD to be cut in one look through. Then again by the end of it I was pretty sleepy, hehe. 

So I think in your next post you could end it by Botan having some sort of outburst with Shiori? Botan's absentminded, slower in body, probably weaker too, but I wanted it to be more of a slow burn and not have it happen so fast. It struck me as sensible to make the student's manipulation of her emotional and mental state to be more intense since he would now know for sure that Botan isn't just a new girl, and that she was one of Koenma's pawns. So maybe this buildup won't take AS long, but it won't happen SUPER fast. Like, maybe at dinner with Shiori is when the irritability settles in, and Shiori's concern is not something Botan ignores but becomes tired of, so she says something a little too aggressive and heads to her room where Kurama tries to confront her about what's really going on.

The bad student confronting Kurama and Botan's near-suicide would have to happen tomorrow, since there's no chance in hell it would take that much longer for Kurama to figure out that Botan fell under the sway of the enemy. Does this sound agreeable to you, or do you want us to slow it down more?

Also, I used the 'coral' code. Let me know if you like it or if a new one is in order :D
