Mob was thankful to finally have a day off work that happened to coincide with a no-practice day at the Body Improvement Club. Most of the club had an important exam the next day, so they were all instructed to work out their minds after school and then do some push-ups before bed that night.
Mob hoped it was okay that he wouldn't be able to work out his mind until after his meeting with Teru.

Date: 2023-11-10 11:21 pm (UTC)Everything was so nice here. It wasn't like there was anything wrong with his Middle School. In fact, Mob really liked it. But the campus was clean and well-manicured with pristine landscaping, like a photo straight from a brochure. Even the uniforms were nicer.
He couldn't help but feel a little like an outsider.
Mob pushed open the doors to the gym. Teru was still out on the court with the rest of the team, so he found a place on the bleachers where he wouldn't be in the way and watched. He didn't really watch basketball; in fact, the only time recently he could recall even being around one was when he (and Reigen?) infiltrated the all-girls school to stop that evil spirit. And even then he didn't really get much of a chance to even take in the court before the spirit revealed himself.
Still, he could take in all of it now. Teru zoomed seamlessly across the court, stepping nimbly around his opponents. And he wasn't using telepathy, either. He was really just that fast. Mob was impressed. And envious, too.

Date: 2023-11-10 11:30 pm (UTC)A chorus of gasp and shrieks followed as the lone boy went down on the bleachers and the girls responsible for both the errant pass and the failure to catch it ran over, followed by a steady trickle of their teammates.
"Are you okay!? Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, I am so super sorry!"
no subject
Date: 2023-11-11 06:53 am (UTC)"Yeah, I'm fine," he tried to reassure them before anyone could make a scene of it. Mob, however, was not fine. Through blurred vision, he groped through his pocket for a handkerchief to press against his nose. Mob hoped the pressure would be enough to dull the pain.

Date: 2023-11-11 07:08 am (UTC)"Hey...your uniform. You're from another school, aren't you? Are you here for someone or something?"
no subject
Date: 2023-11-11 07:10 am (UTC)Not that he was able to do much watching right now.

Date: 2023-11-11 07:36 am (UTC)"No way!" The girl waved that off, clearly too flustered at the thought. "You don't bother him when he's focused...everyone knows that."
"That's just a rule for boys. He'd forgive you if you waved him down."
"Yeah, but it's for another boy."
The two girls gave Mob a look and then shook their heads a little, clearly concluding that doing so was asking for trouble.
"Shige!" Teru's voice cut through the murmuring and the girls instantly parted for him like a wave. "Are you alright?"
Heedless of the shocked expressions he left in his wake, Teru was before Mob in an instant, bending over to get a look at his face.

Date: 2023-11-11 07:48 am (UTC)"Let me see."
Teru gently took Mob's hands and lowered them an inch. There was a smear of blood on his handkerchief and a smudged trickle from his nose but it was already clotting. It was red but it didn't look broken.
"Let's go to the nurse's office. I'll take you." Without waiting for a word in edgewise, Teru prompted Mob to stand. He waved the girls off with a reassuring smile as they made their way to the nearby doors out of the gym.

Date: 2023-11-11 08:04 am (UTC)"I'm really sorry that happened," Teru said as he pulled the curtain. Nothing but bad things happened to Mob at his school.

Date: 2023-11-11 09:44 pm (UTC)"It's not that I'm ungrateful," Mob said quickly, before Teru could get the wrong idea. "It's just that we had a lot of plans and I don't want to miss them over something this minor. That's all."
