[color=cd2440]"Sure, but why do I need to..."[/color] Chie began to question Touka's decision of pushing the manual labor to her when Ami hugged her out of nowhere. [color=cd2440]"Y--you're welcome, I guess,"[/color] the redhead said with difficulty, thanks to Ami's over ecstatic hug.

[color=cd2440]"I'll be back in a moment,"[/color] Chie said after she was free to move once again. She exited the classroom, taking a brief look down the corridor, to see if the light girls weren't around, waiting to ambush them. Once she was certain that the coast was clear, Chie made a beeline to the room furthest down the corridor, bringing the damaged desk with her. [color=cd2440]"I'm sorry for that but, this is the President's orders,"[/color] Chie said to herself, in the empty Arts Club room as she swapped the desks.

Before she went back to the Detention Club, Chie transformed into unfettered her magical girl counterpart, sneaked into the Teachers' Room, swiped a cigarette pack and planted it on the burnt desk. Once she was done with the incrimination, Chie went back to normal and returned to the club room, right as they were discussing the idea of 'warm-up exercises'.

[color=cd2440]"How about we do it as a team match? To... you know... tightens our bonds,"[/color] Chie suggested in a shy voice barely audible over the excitement of her peers.

[color=palegoldenrod]"Thank you for the invitation, I'll consider it,"[/color] Luna said, replying to Mari's invitation. [color=palegoldenrod]"Now, about you,"[/color] she said, turning to Soma just as she began to leave, catching up with and stopping her. [color=palegoldenrod]"I guess it's better if  I don't ask anymore. This city is a strange place, after all. Anyway, I'll try to find that backpack of yours. For the time being, the two of you should stay together. I don't know where you got this idea, but a lone wolf cannot achieve anything on its own,"[/color] she added in a serious voice.

[color=palegoldenrod]"Actually, I have a good idea,"[/color] Luna said, looking to Mari once more before returning her gaze to her current interlocutor. [color=palegoldenrod]"If your life is as destitute as you claim, you won't complain about being treated to dinner, right? One of my father's acquaintances runs a traditional restaurant in the Old Miso City area that has the best udon you'll ever eat. If I find your backpack, I'll take it there. When you come to pick it up, I'll treat you to a dinner. You are welcome as well, Miss Mari,"[/color] the blonde said before letting finally stepping out of Soma's way. Perhaps she was being a bit too forceful, but being assertive is one of the first things you learn when you are born in a traditional family. It goes without saying that Luna learned her lessons well.
