Took the girl a moment to figure out who you’re referring to. It should’ve been obvious, given the circumstances, but not everyone can be quick on the uptake.
“...Ken, right?” You nod in approval.
“Yeah, we go back a little bit. ...Met in middle school and all, what’s he to you?” She blushes a little reminiscing of the past. Whoever she is, you don’t think he ever mentioned her to you. Graced him with your company, and you don’t get so much as an idea on his side of life.
“I, for one, only met him last year. We were classmates then. I’m Hino Yakamura, and you are?”
“Rinkou Suzuki. You know, I’m really glad the school gave the club the go ahead. Ken was really worried about it failing.”
Really now? So certain they would reject this without you thinking of a better cover, you would’ve proposed it yourself if it could succeed as it is.
Another voice interjects. One from this morning. “Hey! What happened to the poster here?”
You don’t need to see it, you heard it was the SCP herself. Hand clenched further, you hide the evidence still in a ball of anger. Gave her a mean side eye, but you quickly shirked away. The attention isn’t a good idea, seeing as you could be caught red handed.
“S-sorry, hope to see you at the club.” Rinkou took this opportunity to go, abandoning you to her.
Mayumi’s presence forced you to step aside, moving to put up another poster in place of its predecessor. The thinned stack meant she was more or less done putting hers up.
“You, can you help me put up another one? I’m gonna make sure this one doesn’t disappear.”
It’s already taking a bit of control not to show her any part of you she can bludgeon and chastise you over. Sure, she’s asking for your help, but she knows, doesn’t she? Wanting to see the facade slip. She’s damn well capable of doing it alone. You take a deep breath, planning to act on your next one.
>Insult her.>She asked. Help her to the best of your ability and restrained anger. (Dice Roll option, 3d6)>Leave. She doesn’t need you, and best not to tip your hand.>Write-in
