Hwan's cocked eyebrow rose even higher.
Then, an amused chortle emanated from the boy, and his face changed into a lop-sided grin.
"Well thanks for worrying 'bout lil' old me, Ponytail. But yeah, I'm fine. I mean, I didn't get a lick of sleep last night so I'm sorta out of it and running on cigarettes and coffee right now, but a cold shower and some breakfast should fix that," the white-haired boy replied, making a vague gesture with his hand. "As for 'that thing', well... it's like I told you last night. I got it open and handed it over to T-Bone. Nothing but bunch of pills, some sorta specialty gauze and a syringe inside it with couple of bottles... and those I've got no clue. So it's up to him to figure that out."
From the tone of his voice, it seemed that even Hwan was a little sceptic of Travis being able to handle stuff like that, or rather, having the knowledge and experience to make use of it... but the way the thug had acted last night, he most likely did. Everybody was full of surprises at Pinefall, and Travis was no exception, apparently.

Hwan cackled.
"Old trick I learned from this battlefield surgeon - keeps you up surprisingly well. Though maybe I did go overboard a bit..." He scratched the back of his head awkwardly when 17 pinched her nose. "... Yeah, I hear you, brat. I'll ventilate today. Might even skip class to do that - got lot of other things to do, too. I think one of my wards on the second floor went off yesterday morning, so should check on what the hell was up with that..."

I got a good idea Drummer Boy's already off trying to make up for me dragging him into our shenanigans last night. And believe you me, if I had some hair dye on me, I'd think about slamming in there and putting on a big show about a lovechild or some sort of nonsense, make a big soap out of it, could probably make it pretty believable too."
The white-haired boy snorted as he walked away from the doorway, starting to look for pants to pull on.
"Yeah, you got the look of a daytime soap star alright - you might even pull it off," the boy replied when he finally found a pair of jeans and started pulling them on. "Anyways, I'm down for some breakfast. I think that T-Bone's out relaxing at the pool, though. Might not want to bother him before he gets his groove back on. He seemed a bit snippy couple of hours ago."
Hwan wiggled his eyebrows after saying that. And indeed, if Travis had been awake already at that point... there was a good chance he was even more grump than his usual self.
"And while Scarecrow's frown might spoil the milk in my cereal, guess it's alright if we ask her too," Hwan continued, having finally dressed up. "Though... how the heck are we gonna explain the brat if we run into faculty?"
17 frowned at Hwan. While the girl didn't seem to understand what the two were talking about, she still gleamed from the tone what Hwan meant by a "brat".
And now she was puffing her cheeks indignantly.

Ramia gave the duo a lazy nod as she stood up from the bed.
"Sure. I'm ready to wolf-down a bushel of bacon or two, so if you two high class ladies don't mind me pigging out next to you, I'll take you up on that offer," Ramia chuckled and patted down her clothes, before slipping something she had held in her hands into her pocket. "As for what we were doing, well..."
For a moment, bit of an awkward look appeared on the dusky-skinned mercenary's face - the kind of awkwardness that was adorned by a grin that didn't exactly extend all the way through. While it might not have been something too bothersome to reveal, at the same time Ramia did seem like the type who didn't like spreading too much rumours about her own doing. However, thanks to Cesarina's beaming smile (she was clearly proud about something) even the Libyan eventually relented.
With a sigh, she patted the pocket where she had just slipped that metallic something.
"I've been looking around for a bit of something, and since I'm not sure if I can do it on my own, I asked Cesarina here to rig me up a special sort of metal detector. Nothing too fancy, just for specific types of metals. Should make my job a bit easier," Ramia explained. "See, I'm pretty sure that this old... well, let's call it a 'heirloom' that I've been looking for is somewhere around this town. And while it's not actually worth anything, I'd still like to find it."
For just a moment, an almost gentle smile flashed on the girl's face as she looked at the other two.
"... Gotta make sure it doesn't cause trouble for good folks of this school or town," she added as a low murmur.
Then, as if an after-thought, Ramia turned to Alexstrasza and raised her finger.
"Oh, and don't mention this to Anna, alright?" Ramia said. "She'd get even more kick to her Indiana Jones jokes..."

Tris's eyes light up, and she beamed at Colt.
"Verily, thou art a man with foresight! If I art to ever bunk hereth againeth, I shalt need to knoweth the ins and outs of thy abode!" The girl replied in her usual boisterous way and snatched the towel from the boy. "Oh, while I art drying off and changineth clothes, be a dear and awaken thy charge as well! We shalt head to breakfast as sooneth as I art doneth! My stomach verily hungers, and I hath witnessed the cornucopia of foodstuff that art displayed to thee students every morning!"
Wow.
She was practically drooling.
No... she was drooling, as revealed by how she used her newly-acquired towel to quickly wipe it away.
And what was that sound?
That rumbling sound that was almost like a V8 engine coming to life?
-------- Oh.
It was her stomach.
... Just how hungry was this knight?
"I shalt make haste!"
With that, the door slammed shut, and soon enough Colt could hear the humming again - this time accompanied by the sound of towel meeting freshly showered skin. It was quite the magnificent combination, one that practically burned itself into the teenage boy's ears. Especially since there was only a single door between him and the wonderland that he had caught a glimpse of when the blonde knight had turned around and closed the door. There had been a sight of something full and bouncy and firm, a round flower the color of fair skin that had been enticing... yet very dangerous to pursue.
Especially since....
"......................................"
Tris had been wrong.
Colt's charge needed no awakening.
After all, when the boy turned around after feeling a sudden chilling dread, he found himself being targeted by a pair of eyes both disappointed and cold.
".................................."
Oh dear.
Hisa Momoi & Prushka

"Um..."
There was a sound of some confusion that came, muffled, from somewhere around the carpet. The butt that had been up in the air wiggled a bit before Ubon, finally dug her fingers into the carpet itself to drag herself forward. Alas, the firm-yet-soft athlete's behind inched away from under Hisa's grasp... though it did so with the pace of a snail thanks to the trouble Ubon had moving. Indeed, the whole girl resembled a snail quite a lot right now.
Meanwhile, outside the door, furious yelling of a familiar voice could be heard.
Along with equally furious banging of the door.
From the looks of it, this morning's guest did not appreciate what Hisa had just done.
"Y-you know, Hizzie..." Ubon mumbled as she tried to untangle herself from the bedsheet. "... That's super swell of you to say, but, uh, ah, erm, well..."
Finally, she was able to turn herself and around thus Ubon was freed of her linen chains. Immediately she followed this up with a tumble forward, exhibiting her athletic prowess as she rolled back to a standing position with one smooth move. Just like that, the cyanhead on the floor had been revived, and she stood in the middle of the room in a dominating T-pose for a moment, bouncing on her heels. Then she spun around and struck a pose by putting her hands on her hips and with legs spread apart. The eyes of the girl were trained at Hisa, and there was surprising amount of fire in them.
Fire that had been born from a strong opinion.
Opinion that must have been engraved somewhere in Ubon's heart.
"BOUNCY BUTTS ARE BETTER THAN SPORTY BUTTS!" Ubon's sudden holler resonated in the room, even over Prushka's yelling. "Even if Mercie's a meanie, she's still got uh-mazing butt! Like, that girl's cranked up the butt-dial so hard it broke! She's all butt! Nothing but butt! The buttest butt that ever butted! So while your compliments are totes adorbs and made my morning already..."
Ubon's index finger struck forward, pointing straight at Hisa.
"Don't underestimate the other butts of this school!"
Then, in the silence that reigned afterwards, an embarrassed little giggle escaped Ubon's lips and she shuffled a bit on her feet.
"... B-but thanks, Hizzie. While I'd like it to be a hunk-of-a-guy fondling my butt, I'll let it slide this time since it was pretty sweet," she added with a quieter voice. "Especially since..."
It was at that moment Hisa noticed the mischievous glint in the athlete's eyes.
But it was too late.
Far too late.
Ubon's shuffling had taken her to the door, and now, almost like in a slow-motion film, she put her hand on the handle.
That smile turned into a devious grin.
--- Eye for an Eye.
--- Butt for a Butt.
--- Grope for a Grope.
"Especially since...!"
Without warning, Ubon threw the door open and revealed the furious Prushka on the other side. Without missing a beat, Ubon put her hand on Prushka's shoulder and yanked her into the room, almost throwing her towards Hisa. And with her other hand... she readied her fingers into a groping position.
"Hold her down, Prushie!" Ubon hollered as she dashed back towards Hisa. "I'mma 'bout to have my revenge, for realsies---!"
