"We got you something guys, come get some food before the game!" Yukiume had exclaimed as she and the other managers handed out food.

"Hey there, I didn't know you delivered now." Kominato cooed at the ninen as Echizen just semi-glared at the pinkette sannen.

"I wouldn't do that onii-san." Sawamura had chocked out seeing a semi murderous aura around the girl.

"Aneki, I think she's growing horns." Haruichi flinched at the look Echizen gave and whispered to his older brother.

"I'll be alright." The two were struck shocked to how confident Kominato was, yet Sawamura was stuck stiff.

"Harucchi," Sawamura leaned in closer to the pinkette's ear. "Scary senpai still scares me when she got into a fight during dinner once!" Haruichi nodded.

Both ichinen shuddered at the memory that lingered from before after recalling such a time. It was a sight for the entire team to say.

The flashback of her suddenly being chased by opponent schools and using chairs and whatnot around the diner to secure her own safety, it said that was a skilled captain that deserved her title.

"Hey delivery girl." Echizen rolled her eyes, knowing who it was. She then turned around and handed food over to him. "What is it?"

"Do you know anything about greek gods?" The shorter female had raised her brow to Kominato's question. "Yeah obviously, we learned it."

"Then you must know aphrodite." To her, his words weren't making sense today, yet she continued to talk to him.

"Of course she’s one of the most famous goddesses. Why are you suddenly asking weird questions?" Echizen deadpanned.
⠀⠀⠀⠀

"Nothing, I think I just found my Aphrodite."

⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Ewww, so cheesy when did you become like that?!" Some of the boys that overheard had commented, while others cheered at him.

"Huh?!" Sawamura was left confused and utter shock. Everyone else was laughing but he himself didn't get the pick up line Kominato used.

"Furuya! Do you know what onii-san means!?" Sawamura yelled out a bit too loudly but Furuya just walked away and ignored him.

A small 'ack' had left the brunette pitcher's lips along with a small wince at his action. "Harucchi! What's an 'afro date'?!"

Everyone that witnessed this just either sweatdropped or pitied the ichinenー mostly Haruichi since he had to explain it to him.

"Idiot." Kuramochi popped a small vein, grumbling it out as Miyuki who was beside him couldn't help but let out a small laugh.

"Now that we're on the topic of greek gods, you remind me of one." Echizen commented, a small idea popping in her mind.

Kominato couldn't help but bring out his smirkー a taunting one when he heard that fact. "Hephaestus perhaps?"
⠀⠀⠀⠀

"Not quite, I was thinking more like Hades."

⠀⠀⠀⠀
Miyuki was the first to erupt into fits of laughter. "I think you miscalculated, Ryo-san!" Slapping a hand on his stomach.

Kuramochi had also let out his hyena laugh and pointed at the two short people. "She fits Medusa's description instead!"

"No worries," Echizen had nonchalantly waved it off. "I'll just turn you both into stone so I don't have to hear your annoying voices every day."

Both ninen stopped laughing and let out a small 'eh?' to how easily she used that to her advantage. "If anyone, it should be Miyuki!"
