You cannot understand..?

[With the aftermath of the recent mission it seems that Interitus has undergone something of a transformation. It was horrifying now to be sure and looked even more monstrous than before. One would shudder to think what this beast is and will be capable of. Volya just managed to pull himself out of his partner and had been stumbling about before turning to regard her in shock.]

'Teritus?

[His voice was almost frightened as she rose slightly. It was more than twice its original size, not counting the wingspan. Even at rest it towered over him... moreso than it did before. Then it gently bumped him over with the snout on its now differently formed head, causing the young Russian to yelp as he fell over. His everything was feeling extremely weak after the both of them completely lost it because of Zeig.]

Ah!



Thhbthhhhtht...

[He lets out a weak chuckle and hugs his partner as well as their differing sizes could allow.]



...'m not scared of you... just a little worried is all... glad you're still the same you.

[2] [Dated to a few days after Universal Care]

[Due to a case of exhaustion, Volya was unable to attend classes. This naturally made more than a few members of the Student's Comparative Defensive Theology Club quite worried as well as curious. So in order to find out more... they stalked Ken from school, to his personal gym in the place they nicknamed the 'abandoned buildings' district right back to Sakihama. Needless to say, this led to a few things. Like Volya having to drag himself out of bed to see his wayward friends who were no doubt caught by someone and need him to confirm their identities.]

"Volya!"
"Alkaev-san!"
"VVV!"



[This face. Just this face.]

"Ahahaha... actually we got caught less than five minutes after we actually managed to get in here..."

"I don't really think we would have managed to sneak around Torao-senpai if he wasn't preoccupied either. Honestly it was mostly good fortune he was still tired from his training."

"...You REALLY don't have amnesia gas right? This is a once in a lifetime thing. I don't think I'll ever get to do something this awesome and I want to really remember this for the rest of my life. VVV. You promise they don't have any?"

[Volya just gave Dido a look.]

Well you're the responsible adult aren't you? Why are you even asking me?

"VVV? You're starting to worry me because you are NOT answering my question!"

[Said friend who was fixated on the amnesia gas may or may not have a slightly nervous smile now.]

[You know, given how they've spoken about a certain someone without him actually being around...]

So, Dido, I was going to say, regarding ScarleTiger's repa-

[Look who just turned up.]



A-aaah...

[mistaken_for_monster]

Just so you know Ken. This is all your fault.

[The tone was absolutely flat.]

And if you try to smoke bomb your way out of this one I can and will tell your parents how sloppy you're getting. Then we'll see just what they'll put you through.

[And if the room was cold, it'd feel just a little colder.]

"...I didn't think Volya could be that scary."

"So this is what happens when his patience runs out... Alkaev-san... truly intimidating..."

"A..ah! VVV!... Even I'm afraid!"

...You know I can hear you all. You're like a few feet away from me.

"Did I say that out lo- oh crap I'm still doing it."

"A-ah! I'm sorry Alkaev-san... I was just... I was thinking out loud. I'm truly sorry."

"...I'm still afraid. Just saying."

[SO MUCH FACEPALM.]

[actuallyselfish]

"Hey Ken!" Dido says, waving wearily. "I have to agree with Volya: you really dropped the ball, man."

She coughs and steps towards Ken. "So what's the problem with you super robot?"

She leans in close. "Do you have any amnesia gas?"" She whispers.

[tiger_ken]

"Do you think people would know ninjas even exist, if we had amnesia gas?!"

[Ken immediately seizes on the chance to avoid answering Volya's rather on the point accusations.]

"Okay, so, the last battle kinda broke the arm. But I was going to ask if maybe you could replace some parts with an additional Sol generator...?"

[And now he's going to keep ignoring the evil eye burrowing into the back of his skull.]

[mistaken_for_monster]

[Yeah... Ignoring him may not have been the best option to take there Ken. He's just going to lower his head and grumble about it now, but doom may occur eventually.]

"Sol Generator? Is it just a name or are you actually using sun energy?"

"I really don't think we should be asking questions about their robots..."

"...If you're a ninja... can you use awesome ninja techniques in your robot?"

[actuallyselfish]

"Hmmm..." Dido mutters. "I could probably fit another Capacitor bank into ScarleTiger's belly region, hook it up to your Ki Synchronizers..."

She overhears the conversation behind her and groans. "Hey...Volya's friends? You do know you need to keep all this a secret, right? Loose Lips Sink Ship, you know?"

[mistaken_for_monster]

"M..aaaybe? We can try."

[Friend number 1 laughs anxiously and moves from foot to foot.]

"I can do my best to keep quiet. That much I can promise. However... there is the matter of the rumors Torao-senpai's lack of delicacy may have inspired..."

[Friend 2 nudges 1 in the side hard but looks somewhat anxious.]

"...Does it count since Ken-san already sunk the ship?"

[This earned looks from his fellow sneak-ins and Volya.]

"...What?"

Taro....

"Gyeeeeeeeh...okayIpromise! Just stop being so scary VVV!"

[actuallyselfish]

"You better keep those promises!" Dido says, suddenly fixing each person with an intent gaze. "As you might have guessed, we're a secret Robot-piloting organization of justice...and you know what? That means we have a lot of enemies!"

She folds her arms. "If they discovered this base's entrance, or learned about it's defenses from your, People could die. Volya among them."

She glances left and mouths to Volya: do you want to tell them?

[mistaken_for_monster]

[Volya sighs and nods, may as well.]

I have a bunch of crazy guys who follow a wall rug they say predicts the future trying to kill me.

They aren't above getting innocent people caught up in things either. They grabbed a bunch of hostages and gave them to someone who was really really waiting for a chance to kill all of them.

[At this the three friends suddenly look rather surprised.]

"Ahaha... Volya... that... was a joke... right?"

"I don't think Alkaev-san would lie about something like this... it would explain the parent teacher conference as well..."

"...VVV... Don't worry! I promise I won't tell a soul! I'll keep you alive no matter what!!"

...You guys...
