Octavia helps Shoyo unpack his things, doing all of the heavy lifting for him as Shoyo was too weak.

"I didn't know the dorms could have lofts..." Shoyo mumbles as he stares at the loft

"Yeah, it's to save space. Did you order a new bed frame too..?"  Miko replies as she opens a box filled with wooden pieces.

"Yeah, the old one I had was uncomfortable."

"I see, I'll set this up in a moment. I'll just empty out this b-   Shoyo... What is this?"

"What's what?"  Shoyo turns around and blinks when Octavia finds his manga. It wasn't any normal manga however...

"Shoyo you're so naughtyy" Octavia chuckles as she flips through the pages of the manga. "How'd you even get your hands on these? These are for people who have valid ID's.."

"I'm not exactly a saint 'Via."

"Don't tell me you planted a fake ID when you were in Rio. You little rascal!"  Octavia laughs as if she was impressed.

Octavia was always a delinquent. She liked trouble. She somehow had always got Shoyo involved in that trouble, one way or another.

One time, she even got Shoyo to convince to dye his hair blonde for a few months.

As the two were bickering they heard a knock at the door.

Octavia answers it, and sees no one but when she looks down, she sees a bouquet of red and white roses with a note.

"So they finally came."  Octavia mumbles to herself as she picks up the bouquet, discards of the note, puts the note on the table and cuts up the stems of the flowers to put them in a vase.

"What does the note say?" Shoyo asks nervously. "Not sure, didn't read. Why don't you read it aloud?"

Shoyo gulps before picking up the note with shakey hands. "To my dearest, Shoyo..."

"So we finally meet again. Do you know how thrilled I am to see your beauty again? You wouldn't guess. I do hope we can start off on better terms than last time."

"...But before anything else, how was Rio? Was it to your liking? If not, then my dearest apologies for asking. But to the million dollar question, did you think about me..?"

" — Because I sure did. Sakusa said not to worry about you too much, but I'm afraid I couldn't help myself. I've had dreams about you. I've had dreams of what I could do to you..."

" And I've had dreams of keeping you all to myself... But alas, I have to share. Otherwise, Sakusa would rip my chest open or rip my heart out for you to see."

" — This is quite a handful to write for just a bouquet of roses. I know they're your favorite, and I hope they still are. Hopefully you'll understand where I am coming from, my dearest."

"So, all I have to say is —"

"Welcome home, my dearest."

"Truly your love, Tetsurō K."

Shoyo swallows hard after the mouthful of letters, words, and emotions poured into the letter. He folds up the letter and shoves it in-between two books in his bookcase.

"My my, Kuroo moves really quick. It's almost like he was listening in on us..." Octavia sounds almost serious as she puts the vase of roses from Kuroo near Shoyo's window with plenty of light.

"H-how does he...- Nevermind, It's because of Sakusa, isn't it?"

"Mhm, Sakusa's council president and the leader of your simp nation over there. He's got a lot of sources." Octavia pats Shoyo's shoulder as Shoyo breathes really heavy.

"Not to worry though. I'm here." She reassures Shoyo. Causing him to calm down just a bit.

Just then, another knock at the door came.

Octavia does the honors of opening it again and stood at the doorstep was a gift basket that had reeked of lavender.

"Lavender... Must be Akaashi's doing. He's starting a war between your simps. Such a bold bold man." Octavia scoffs and places the basket on the table.

"He knows my favorite scent is lavender..?"

"Mhm. He's probably noticed it in your clothes. Do you still wash with those lavender scented dryer sheets?"

"Yeah..?"

"Use different ones. He's gonna keep sending you these until the lavender does its work on you."

"It's lavender.. Just how much harm can it do?"

"Lavender increases chances of greater sexual experiences. Though, keep the bath soaks, they'll help you get used to the sexy warm smell of lavender. So just in case Akaashi does try and seduce you through the nose, you'll be unfazed."

Octavia has done a lot of dirty work. Including placing bugs in the student council room where Shoyo's simps spend time and have meetings together and every dorm room his little admirers had booked and gone through. Even a small bug in their separate classrooms.

Needless to say, Octavia was a menace.

"I'll be careful. You don't need to worry, there's no way Akaashi could seduce me in such a way." Shoyo says, putting the basket away in one of the drawers.

"Is that coming from the person who almost got seduced by Akaashi through the nose twice?"

"That was only an accident- I didn't-"

"The guy literally coated himself in the scent of Ylang-ylang and pumpkin pie just to get in the same bed as you. So forgive me for being protective I just- I don't want you to have your first time like that."

"I'll be fine, 'Via. Those imps will need to try a little harder to get this pussy wet."

Octavia chuckles at Shoyo's remark and nudges him a little.

"Okay, I'll trust you. But if ever one of them is making you uncomfortable, you know who to call." Octavia says right before her watch beeps to remind her of something.

"Shoot- I better get going, I'll pick you up to go to the mall later, buh-bye!" Octavia waves goodbye and hurriedly leaves Shoyo's dorm room.

Standing right before the student council room, Octavia lets out a deep exhale before opening the large doors.

"You're 3 minutes late, Octavia."

"My apologies, Sakusa. I was... doing work."

"Messing around with my beloved is work to you? Need I remind you who you work for?"

"No. No you don't."

"Then I trust that-"

"Sakusa, don't be so harsh on her. She's only 3 minutes late. She's already helping us."
