Oh, rest assured, I can most CERTAINLY do more than make you blush. If you know what I mean.

, etc.

It's just too easy.

[Ogami]

Hahahahahaha...

[Kasumi]

... well, there is nothing wrong with your breathing, so... hmm... there are no problems.

[Kanna]

Welp... naturally, this IS the Captain.

----
[Ogami]

.... just out of curiosity, exactly what kind of freakish superhuman do you think I AM, Kanna?

[Kanna]

One hale and healthy enough to survive everything this theater's had to throw at you?

[Ogami]

It was an "adapt or die" situation, Kanna.

[Kanna]

You didn't give up the ghost though, right?

[Ogami]

NOT BY CHOICE!
----

[Kanna]

So... Kasumi. How's the Captain's body?



[Kanna]

That's great. But you should care for your health a little more, okay?

[Ogami]

Aah... that's right. I've got to be more careful.



[Ogami]

Aah, thanks... Kasumi-kun....

I'm surprised! Nothing sketchy or untoward happened to anyone involved in this little shirtless sketch--

Thump.

[Ogami]

Wh.. what was that!?



[Ogami]

S-Sakura-kun!?

----
[Ogami]

Wh-what about Kanna? Why didn't you mention her?

[Sakura]

...

And the thought of Kanna being involved of ANY sort of semi-demi-sexual act with Ogami and Kasumi at the same time was so horrifying that Sakura's mind blanked out Kanna's existence as a self-defense mechanism.

Thus, she flees.
----



[Ogami]

Argh...



The early bird gets the worm!!

[Ogami]

Sakura-kun! Please wait for me!!

Here, though,



It just means that Ogami's made a horrific miscalculation.


----


[Sakura]

W-what are you planning to do to me, looking like that---!?

[Ogami]

Eh? Th-this is um well you know....

Sakura flees, utterly horrified by the sight of A MAN WITHOUT HIS SHIRT OH GOD IT'S A MAN GYAAAAAAAAAH.

I... I guess 1923 sensibilities take precedence over freakish stalker-level adoration?


----


[Ogami]

Kanna... thanks.

[Kanna]

Just leave Sakura to me. I'll make sure to talk to her and get this cleared up.

Kanna: a real man among men.

[Ogami]

Thanks... Kanna, Kasumi-kun... I'm counting on you.

Now to make sure that Ogami's properly tucked his shirt into his pants!



[Ogami]

Good morning, Tsubaki-chan. You seem quite perky this morning, huh.



----
[Ogami]

At six o' clock in the morning, even the most ardent of morning persons should be grumbling and groaning for their first cup of coffee.

[Tsubaki]

Well, I'm a little kid young woman with more than enough energy to spare! What about you, Ogami-san, why aren't YOU at all sleepy-looking?

[Ogami]

Oh, it's just the usual fear that's keeping me awake.

[Tsubaki]

Of what?

[Ogami]

Everything.
----



[Tsubaki]

Ah, yes! Please leave that there!!



[Maria]

Tsubaki, please come here for a moment. I'd like you to help tidy up these shelves.



----
[Ogami]

Who's helping who again?

[Tsubaki]

It's a small price to pay~! Hehehehe.
----



[Ogami]

I got it... I'll do my best to not talk about it.

Tsubaki's so innocent and cheerful that anything Kohran does will probably scar the poor girl for life.



[Ogami]

Um, Tsubaki-chan...



Time to change the subject!

[Tsubaki]

Eh... th, that's not... that doesn't have anything to do with you, doesn't it, Ogami-san?

...

oh snap.

[Maria]

T-Tsubaki...!?



[Ogami]

U, um... it wouldn't be good for me to intrude on this, so I'll just be going now...



[Tsubaki]

Maria-sa~n... I've got a favor to ask of you... could you hear me out~?

Ogami weighed Maria's life and her worth against his own desire for self-preservation.

Which is more important?

[Ogami]

Maria... do your best.

Self-preservation.

[Tsubaki]

See? ... that's what Ogami-san says, so...

[Maria]

Eh... T-Tsubaki!?



DASH!!



[Tsubaki]

See, over here~...

[Maria]

Tsubaki... you're still half-asleep, right? That's right! That's why, right!?

[Ogami]

(I... looks like it'd be better for me to be somewhere else. Maria... I'd best abandon her.)

[Maria]

... Captain, you heartless bastard--!

Rest in peace, Maria.



Meanwhile, we're heading over to the courtyard so that we can get a good view of the dressing room through the window.


_{NEXT TIME: We might even be able to finish the entire daily rounds!}
