(I drew the drawing yesterday, how's it?)

With all that had been done, Karma couldn't even find it in him to think of himself as a sore loser. Not really. Nagisa had beaten him fair and square, and Karma could never have won against someone with such sheer strength. The strength wasn't physical, but rather a blend of all and Karma was pushed into a corner into surrendering.

As things became less complicated between them, the classroom was in a loss at what to do. All this time they'd been trying their hardest to kill their teacher, and suddenly their goal shifted to something completely different, so no one had a clue where to start from.

Nagisa might have his share of strong opinion and his very impressive dauntlessness, but he definitely hadn't thought this through. Normally, Karma was there where he lacked, but this time even he couldn't come up with any solid plans, and that really spoke for the weight of the situation.

Though he really wasn't worried. With what their classroom was, Karma was sure they'd have a stable plan.

This time, Isogai came up with an article in his hand- about where they could get the data from and how they could reach there. It wasn't an everyday talk to hear a Japanese space station launching test rockets to the International Space Station, but Cape Shimazu really kept its name as Japan's largest space station.

"The rocket can fit only two people inside, so who wants to go?" Isogai asked.

Most of the boys had their hands up and naturally, Karma rose his own hand too, though a bit reluctant. It really did sound fun to go to outer space, but what was the catch there?

Korosensei's grin turned wicked as he smoothly added, "The rocket is a test model and there hasn't been one successful flight before, so let me ask again. Who wants to go now?"

Most hands down, Karma's own withered at the prospect of the rocket malfunctioning mid flight. Whatever there was in outer space was certainly lesser of worth than his own life, he'd like to live another day. His secret childhood fantasy could stay a fantasy forever for all he cared.

"Despite that, I'd still like to go." Itona spoke, breaking the silence, "For a mecha-lover like me, this is all I could wish for." Karma respected his passion for tech. There were probably a few handful of people who'd agree to such a daunting request just for the sake of their passion.

Itona sat, looking at the palm of his hands before staring straight ahead with that all too sincere face of his. "Just this once, I'll hold back. Because I think Nagisa and Karma should go."

Nagisa was clearly surprised at the suggestion, his eyes going round all of a sudden and Karma was sure he sported the same look. Although that surprise soon broke in a drop of nervous sweat because Karma really didn't want to go outer space- especially not with how less the guarantee of their safety was. Nagisa actually looked like he was considering it.

"What? I'm not a fan of doing risky challenges just because someone asked me to." He shrugged, trying to mask how jittery his nerves felt, "Besides, we can just have Terasaka go with one of the dummies- even if the flight fails there'll be no loss."

"You asshole-!"

The class followed the comment with raucous laughter that immediately dissolved whatever indignant reply Terasaka threw back and the chiding way Korosensei's tentacles moved told him he missed the scolding too. The effect his joke had made him smirk, but the worry in his gut was ever present.
