Then she tilts her head, thinking. "And with Izzy still gone, Videl would have to be on the other team to balance things out."
"Mm." Peppa walks along, silent.
Erasa considers for a bit, then snaps her fingers. "Or if it's boys too, there's Gohan."
"MM."
Erasa looks at Peppa. "Do you want to play with, or against your bro?"
Peppa's eye twitches, and sports a rueful smile. "MM, MM, MM."
Erasa nods. "Ooh, kay. Good talk, Peppa!"
Peppa blinks, then looks up at Erasa, and says, "Actually, it's fun talking with you. Thanks for taking the time to check in on me! I hope we can do it again sometime."
Erasa nearly trips. "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" She looks at Peppa incredulously. With a slight blush to her cheeks, she asks, "You... like talking with me?"
...Peppa scratches her head. Then, she smiles, and says, "Yeah, why wouldn't I? We're friends. I mean sure, we don't have all the same hobbies, but who does?"
Erasa looks away, her blush intensifying. "Riiiiiight, I'm... gonna see you in gym, gotta go, bye!" She runs off.
Peppa watches her go. "Uh... huh." She has never seen Erasa get that pink before.
Going down the hall, she spots Coach Freddy. "Hey Coach! You spot any thieves lately?"
"Hey Peppa! Can't say I have- actually, just saw Paru run past. She steal anything?"
"Paru? Oh, you mean that girl with the glasses?"
"Eh? No, I don't think she was wearing glasses. Did Paru take your glasses?"
"No, I don't wear glasses, only goggles."
"I see. Oh yeah, did you check in with Mahogany?"
"Mahogany? Oh right, my cousin."

Peppa does the (ﺧ益ﺨ) face. "Kinda, it's complicated. She does have a medical reason to not show up for PE tho."
He nods. "Thanks, kid! One more thing, do you know the phone number for Castle Frypan? I have to call her parents now."
Peppa's (ﺧ益ﺨ) face intensifies. "Yeah..." <span class="mu-i">Sorry Cuz, could only do so much.</span>

But as a game of Volleyball starts up, Peppa feels as if a weight's been lifted! Seriously, once her aunt and uncle learn of what her cousin is up to, she'll get the help she needs, and then the others will know that she was only looking out for her cousin! Videl will stop being mad, and Gohan will have to admit he's been a huge buttface, and everything will go back to norm-
