"Real talk snickerdoodle, your class sounds like a whole lot of fun." Junko said, lifting up some photos she held in her head.

"I know right?" Mikan sat up as she was massaging Junko's legs, "It's amazing. Ms. Yukizome's the best teacher ever. And our class rep, Nanami, she's so sweet. She and Oliver are practically hand in hand, leading the class no matter what." 

Junko's eyebrow arched as she caught the last sentence, eyes narrowing as a smile remained on her face, now that was the ticket. That's what she was hoping to hear.

"I've never seen anyone work as hard as they do. And not to mention, they rely on each other so much. Wherever Nanami goes, Oliver follows." Mikan explained further.

"Hm." Junko tossed up the photos into the air, "You make a strong case hun. So, if you miss them, it's only natural." Turning her attention towards Ryota, who was working on his animation, the fashionista kept her smile as she continued. "Why would you want to bail on them?"

"Can't you leave me alone?" Ryota asked, "Please, just go. What are you even getting out of that jigsaw puzzle?"

"Oh, surprised I'm even into it?" Junko questioned, "For your information, this thing is right up my ally. You spend so much time putting it together, piece by piece, carefully building order on chaos." Before Ryota could respond, Junko grabbed the table and flung it over, "When all of a sudden! Despair gets the last word. Couldn't you just die?" She finished off, smiling almost innocently.

"How long do you think they'll be able to actually keep them out?" Ibuki asked.

Ollie looked away from the window as he turned towards Chiaki, holding her hand in his own. He focused on the worried look on her face, it was beginning to make him worried as well.

"They have a right to protest, I guess." Chiaki said quietly, "They're just so angry." 

"Yo, we're not allowed to call it that." Ibuki said as she sighed.

"I'd like to see them try." Ollie got up as he placed his free hand against the window, curling his fingers up, keeping himself as calm as possible before he caused an explosion to set off. Fortunately, Chiaki gave his hand a gentle squeeze before he turned around and nodded slightly. 

"To hell with the turds, you think that's the reason Tsumiki didn't show up?" Nekomaru asked.

"Actually, I think you might be on to something there." Hiyoko said, shrugging. "Pukey the pig's run off." 

"But if she left, why were all her things hanging around in the dorm room this morning." Mahiru asked. 

"Who the hell cares, I'd like to know if these assholes were the reason- huh?" Ollie's sentence was interrupted as he saw the classroom door slide open, seeing their teacher walk in.

"Hello class, now why are we all staring blankly outside the window?" Ms. Yukizome asked with a smile. "What our eyes should be trained on is the future." 

Turning towards Ibuki and Chiaki, Ollie watched the two walk up to Ms. Yukizome, confusion on his face as he felt Chiaki release his hand. His hand instantly curled up, feeling lost for a second.

"Straight up teach, should we be worried? I know it's not very rock and roll." Ibuki chuckled nervously, "But I'm kind of freaked."

"Oh sweetheart, you'll be fine. Just don't go outside during the day." Ms. Yukizome reassured.

"Um, yeah. Kinda figured that out already." Hiyoko pointed out.

"Security knows their job down to the last detail." Peko added.
