"Tamaki, you're dressed as Ryoma Sakamoto, right?" A girls asks Haruhi. I turn to my own customers. I was cross dressing for this costume.

"Why is he speaking Tosa dialect? You know, I never would have thought that late-Edo era cosplay would be this popular," Haruhi asks. I smirk as I join her.

"Come on, you can't be serious. That's like one of the basics," Hikaru says to her.

"There are plenty of girls that find the late Edo Era totally fascinating, particularly the Shinsengumi," Kaoru says.

"And most of the girls who like it are complete maniacs about it," Honey says.

"I find it boring but to each their own," I say to her as I turn to Hikaru. "I do like it on you tho."

"Are they popular because of the noble nature in which they sacrifice their young lives for their country?" Range narrates as she joins us, "Or could it be because of their stoic determination, their choice to live out their lives by the Bushido Code? Or could it be..."

"Don't die," Hikaru says to his brother acting again.

"I'm done for brother. Let me go," Kaoru says.

"That we're intrigued because the worship of this group of renegade young men is somewhat forbidden. The Ikeda-ya Inn maybe well known but it's only because of Hijikata. Just imagining him after the battle of Toba Fushimi. His back to the north as he sorrowfully wandered the streets of his homeland intending to defending the honor of the Shinsengumi all by himself!
Oh!" Renge exclaims, "I could eat three giant bowls of rice!"

"That was one hell of a history lesson, Renge," Haruhi says sarcastically.

"Not having us cast ourselves in specific roles was good advice. Allowing the guests just to be free to fantasize on their own was truly a brilliant idea, Renge," Kyoya says, "I'm very impressed."

"This is so dumb," I sigh as I look down at my outfit. I had even binded for this.

"I told you it would work, but you know, I think dressing Haruhi as Soji Okita was perfect!" Renge exclaims.

"It is hilarious that you would think Haruhi had such deep thoughts. Yet I know that girl. She's thinking about supermarket discounts," I say as I lean onto Hikaru's shoulder. She smiles at the statement.

"Mori senpai?!" Haruhi says in shock.

"Why the sudden lunge?!" Kaoru asks. I look back to see Mori's blade deep in one of the set doors we had set up to match the costumes we had.

"You're not getting enough attention?!" Hikaru says.

"Please calm down, Mori senpai! I know you're upset that you only have one line an episode. We're 3/4 into the season and you haven't had your own episode. Is that it?!" Tamaki asks, "I'm sorry!"

"You kinda had your own plot on that one episode with honey's cavity," I say looking at them, "its all Tamaki's fault."

"No. We have a trespasser," Mori says as the door falls revealing a red-headed boy.

"Takashi Morinozuka!" The guy says harshly.

"A surprise attack!" We exclaim not understanding why anyone would do that to Mori.

"Senpai, please take me on as your apprentice!" The guy says falling to Mori's feet.

"Huh?" We ask. As Tamaki clears out the guests we all pile at a table with the guy. I climb onto Hikaru's lap.

"So who the hell are you?" I ask the guy.

"Y/n," Hikaru says nudging me.

"Ritsu Kasanoda, 1st year Class D. Heir to the 3rd generation head of the Kasanoda syndicate, the most powerful gang in the Kanto area. He was admitted this year into Ouran Academy's High School. He has long red hair, a mean looking appearance, is reserved and has a few friends. It is said that if your eyes meets his, you'll have bad dreams for 3 months. If you bump into him, you'll end up in the hospital. And talking back to him sends you to an early grave. He is so feared by his classmates that they call him the Walking Blizzard," Kyoya explains.
