Ryuu felt his jaw hang open for a few seconds. Recovering in a surprisingly decent manner, the second son of the Yamauchi family adjusted his sunglasses, his eyes glued on the fox girl with dangerously wide eyes. It had been so long since someone even considered giving him another chance. Well, actually, his father told him to go take a walk on the Himalayas when he evaporated all of the water in the household's swimming pool. That was not a pleasant thought to think about.

[i]Eh,[/i] he thought, time seemingly frozen in his perspective because he was still gaping at the fox girl like a predator finding its prey doing break dances. [i]My sister literally deported me to England before.[/i]

The otaku straightened his back a little.

He then proceeded to walk straight up to the two. Right before he let his feet leave the ground, he twisted his body and wrapped his loosely wrapped his shoulder around the girl in a friendly manner, though he still looked like a gangster.

"Name's [b]Ryuu[/b] Yamauchi." He said with his teeth clenched, his canine teeth being particularly sharp compared to most of the flat ones around it. "I'm the best when it comes to watching television shows for three whole days."

Needless to say, he was unaware of the fact that he sounded extremely worthless right at the moment, though his looks definitely said otherwise. Then, Ryuu remembered how his face's default smile was that of a serial killer's.

[i]Better fix it up for a quick sec,[/i] he thought to himself.

The otaku's "devil grin" loosened, only to have him smile a little less awkwardly. He still looked like he wanted her lunch money.

"Er," he blurted out, quickly thinking up random crap in his head. "I like Power Rangers. And stuff like that. So [i]I'm not a bad guy after all, alright?[/i] Hah!"

It was only until he was finished with that statement that he finally managed to make a less distorted smile. Before the boy next to the girl was able to move away, he quickly wrapped his shoulder around the frightened student, still excited from the many realizations he came across.

"Now, tell me your freakin' names!" Ryuu exclaimed, a confident smile on his face. "Lunch's on me if you do. Especially you, boy; you seem like you hate me already. Ah, HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!"

The sunglasses-wearing otaku silently praised himself for pulling all of that off in one shot. It was mainly thanks to the fox girl that he was able to reintroduce himself. Did it work? He had no idea. But even if he failed this time, he sure did feel more confident in having conversations. The girl was a quiet one- he could tell at a first glance-, but to top it off with being [i]nice[/i] as well made it feel natural for him to talk.

It was an unfamiliar feeling, but he already felt nostalgic just by doing this.

...

...He still needed to fix his violent looks, though. They sometimes looked eviller than the devil himself.
