( with how komaeda's luck work? that punch will be connecting right to his jaw and there's nothing he can do about it. nice job, chiaki! you're the first to get a swing in on him, that's actually pretty impressive. as she's pulled back by her classmates, komaeda raises a hand to his face to idly touch where he's been punched. the area is sensitive with every touch that his eye twitches on that side, but emotionally speaking he doesn't react so much. for the girl to be jealous of her classmate to the point of speaking about her in a love quarrel, she sure did get aggressive when komaeda did the same thing back.

alright, what to do about these untalented people swarming them. especially when they're so focused on them, komaeda is placing a hand on izumi's shoulder to shove him slightly towards chiaki's direction... maybe he can console her like in the romcoms for information.

as for everyone else? )

Ah, now, now! I just wanted to help.

( he raises his hands up like he's been caught, laughing sheepishly with a shake of his head. )

I thought that would make Chiaki-san happy... though, I guess not. ( alright npc #827386 in the go fuck yourself crowd, komaeda's looking in your direction. ) I want to formally apologize... Do you know her whole name ( wasn't it lucky to make a small mess and get her name in return? ) and homeroom... Maybe if I sent a few flowers...
