Ren sighed very loudly. "I'll get back to you on that one... Give me a minute..." he answered dejectedly as he removed his cellphone from his pocket and turned the corner of the alley, evidently needing some privacy for this call.

"Ahem."

The sound of a female's voice reverberated from the speakers towards the audience. The first representative, it seemed. Oddly enough, she seemed to be a student herself, or perhaps she just preferred to wear the uniform. Either or. Her brown hair was unusually long and tied with yellow ribbons. Any sufficiently knowledgable ESPer in the crowd would immediately be able to identify the lady.

"Greetings, minor characters from the Island Nation! I am your representative, Ak-"

The sound of somebody's phone ringing forced Akane to pause mid sentence. The young lady seemed to scan the crowd a bit before realizing it was coming from stage. From her skirt pocket, in fact. Evidently not caring she was up on stage, in the middle of a presentation, she decided to answer. "Ohayou! Who might this be?" she began, conversation being broadcast to the audience, "Sorry Owarin, I can't really help you right now! I'm in the middle of a presentation. ... Eh? It's important? ... What do you mean you can tell that the microphone is picking my side of our conversation? ... No need to yell... I'll turn off the mic~"

After the microphone was turned off, Akane seemed to be talking a bit more before turning it back on. Then, putting her phone to her thigh, Akane turned back to the crowd. "I apologize, but I'll need to leave now~"

And then she was gone, microphone taken with her.

....The awkward silence should be setting in any second now...

After quite a bit of time talking, evidently involving several profanities and what seemed to be tearful begging for mercy from what Arydun could feasibly be able to pick up from the call, Ren turned the corner once more, this time looking much more irritated than usual. Like he had been pulling metaphorical hair out in frustration, it seemed. He clenched his fist so hard he cracked his knuckles and then said, "She'll be here in a second... Don't worry about size fitting, she can deal with that." He looked around their general vicinity as if confused, "That's odd... That bothersome underclassman of mine usually shows up pretty damn fa-"
"Ohayou~!"

It seemed that out of nowhere and mid-sentence, a brown-haired young lady clad in the Elftheria Academy uniform had managed to sneak up the rooftop and drop down out of nowhere, immediately between Ren and Arydun. Or, y'know, just teleported or something. That too. She was also holding a disconnected microphone, but that was of no consequence... probably.

"Ghack!"
"So Owari~n!" the strange female started as Ren seemed to gasp for air in the background, "You want me to provide one of my uniforms for your pal here?" She looked Arydun over a few times and snapped her fingers, "Well! I don't know what creepy fetishes you're into, senpai, but I can indeed supply you with what you are looking for! I shall return!" And with a curtsy, she was gone as fast as she left.

"As I was saying... I am your representative of the Island Nations, Akane Komaru."

Akane continued, returning and cutting whatever silence there was short.

"It's very likely that the other representatives will make long-winded declarations of friendship, hard work, and victory... But I really must be going now, so I'll cut mine short. Make friends. Work hard. Reduce the other continents into less than minor characters - [i]render them into nothing more than faceless mobs in the background, unnamed by even the author of this world![/i] ...That is all~! Goodbye everyone~"

And with that, she walked off stage, handing the microphone to Bernabe before disappearing again.

And she was back! This time with a spare uniform! "Here you go!" she declared cheerfully, handing the thing off to Arydun, unaware of the fact she was standing right on top of Ren.

"...Sigh..."
