Daichi frowned slightly at the comment of his lack of friends - in Daichi's opinion, his large number of friends was the only exceptionally unordinary part about his life, and for good reason. He needed friends to stay safe in this school, and the more he had, the fewer people would try to be picking fights with him.

[color=a36209]"Yes, I have friends! In fact, I think I'm popular."[/color]

That last part was a blatant lie - Daichi was known due to his repair skills and the fact that he can just clone matter. Other than that, all his friends fit snugly into the 'loser' section of high school, excluding a few people on some sports teams and one of the kids from the music club. Still, no sense in trying to at least establish a veneer of coolness - wasn't it an ordinary person's goal to be popular?

Mori plugged the microphone into his cart, and Daichi cringed slightly at the crackling that followed it. He was worried that Mori would say something and distract everyone, but luckily, the other teenager just pushed his repaired cart into his own shadow and returned to a normal standing position. 

God Daichi was jealous of that - he could just turn stuff weightless! That would be extremely useful, especially for someone like Daichi who has to lug around lots of prepared tools to be useful in a fight.

"I guess I'll go to that Karaoke then. Send me the time, later on, are there gonna be other people from the club?"

Daichi smiled, glad that he finally managed to get another person to agree to the outing. To be completely honest, when the club president offered to take Daichi out for Karoke, he didn't know how to react - that was the nicest thing the normally greedy president ever did for him. Hell, he even said Daichi could bring a few friends along with him, which prompted him to ask Mori.

[color=a36209]"So far it's just you, me and the Club President, but I'm going to try inviting one or two other people - you can invite someone too if you want!"[/color]

Daichi took a few more bites of food, finishing off the tray that he had brought with him from the cafeteria. Normally whenever he saw Mori he got some food from his snack cart, but lunchtime was a different story altogether.

[color=a36209]"Oh, maybe we can invite one of the transfer students? They gotta be feeling pretty shy coming to a school like this - inviting them to hang out might ease the stress! I don't their names, but I can probably find out by asking around."[/color]

Talking to Mori was generally very relaxing - he sometimes talked shop that Daichi couldn't understand very well, considering he was just a generator and wasn't the most knowledgeable about mechanics, but other times they talked about the new cool anime that came out recently. And the Club President was always trying to get Mori to join the Repair club, especially considering how often the guy came around. But even if he intruded sometimes, he was always nice about it, and rarely asked anything ridiculous.

"Hey, do you want to try to make a mech?"

Daichi stopped drinking from the water bottle he was holding and started to cough slightly in response to Mori's question.

[color=a36209]"A-a mech? Like from an anime or something? I mean... I'm sure guys from the club would be happy to help if you paid them somehow, and I'm always willing to lend a hand to a friend, but it really depends on how big it is."[/color]

Daichi paused forming a small action figure of a mech from a popular, long-running anime from his AED as a demonstration - he had the same action figure since childhood, and he kept the original in his bedroom.

[color=a36209]"Like, if we wanted something like this, we'd kind of have a hard limit at 10 feet tall - we wouldn't be able to work on it in the classroom if it was bigger, and I don't know where we'd store it. I mean, unless you get the president to help, which you probably can - then we might be able to use the courtyard, appeal to the student council..."[/color]

Daichi paused as he thought.

[color=a36209]"Hell, he's the club president - he could probably just make a new building to house it while we make it."[/color]

Daichi clapped his friend on the shoulder and laughed.

[color=a36209]"That's all theory though -it would take a lot of time and resources to build and bribe some of the guys here. Definitely sounds possible though, and I'm always willing to lend a hand!"[/color]
