Isoroku nodded to Mizushima.
"Yes, I do. I certainly have no intention of acting like nothing ever happened. I don't even think it's all that important to keep it quiet-- it's not a secret, exactly. It'll just make it seem like we're all talking about some computer game no one else plays."
He took a bite of whatever cheap food he'd arbitrarily thrown into his bag, and frowned down at it sceptically. "I'm not saying we should shout it from the rooftops, mind."
As Kojiro and Rin came back over and explained the situation, he grinned wolfishly.
"Confront her sounds like fun to me. Our dear Hikaru knows more than she's letting on, and I don't think she has it in her to stand up to pressure if we all assert it. Mizushima, are you in?"

She pressed her fingers to her temples and rubbed them in a circular motion. She sighed again. There was no getting through to them. "You...you guys are serious aren't you? Even if it is the library, don't you think she might get an inkling to what is going on if she sees more than one of you in the same place as her--are you even listening to me?" she bit her lip. "Fine...I'll go." if only to keep an eye on the situation. She turned to the grinning giant. "Stop smiling like that...you're scary happy. You want this confrontation a bit too much..."
'Maybe I should have just stayed at my desk...'
'Maybe I should have just stayed at my desk...'
Isoroku took her remarks as a compliment, and they only made him smile more.
"Come on-- you're acting like you're scared of Hikaru. She's about as dangerous as a kitten. What's she going to do? The only reason she knows we broke curfew is because she was breaking it as well, and she's too rule-abiding to lie about it."
He paused, looking at Mizushima.
"I think you're right, though. If we all show up, we might spook her. Maybe we should let her talk to Rin, then ambush her in the hall..."

Yamada hadn't managed to get very much sleep the previous night. He'd had this odd, unsettled feeling the entire time. It was if he had something he should be doing, somewhere he needed to be. He felt as if he had some sort of obligation or duty to uphold that he was letting go and it bothered him. He stayed up studying and working, finishing anything he possibly could to make the feeling dissipate.
When he woke the next morning after about an hour and a half of sleep he was disappointed in himself for not wanting to go down and run with the two freshmen. He decided he was going to make up for that too, tomorrow. He made a rather slapdash lunch for himself before hurrying to class, later than he'd wanted to.
Through class he was distracted still, but managed to take pretty effective notes. Some of the other students seemed to be acting a bit strangely. He was surprised at the unlikely friendships that had seemed to blossom between Yoshida, Mizushima, Ishikawa, and Junsui after less than a week, but he supposed it may be good for them. Around lunch is when he started paying a bit more mind them, especially after hearing Seiya's name tossed around a few times. His brows furrowed as he wondered what would make them take that tone in regards to her.
Eavesdropping wasn't something that Yamada generally condoned but something about this seemed important and that group of students was just a bit too odd to ignore. There was something almost conspiratorial about the four students right now and it bothered him. He was sure that they were up to something. He did his best not to look at them, or at least to do so subtly, but it was a bit too odd for them. Mizushima and Ishikawa hated each other. They'd been battling in the classroom just the previous day. Junsui seemed rather cloistered to begin with and Yoshida had never made this much contact with anyone. He was sure of it. If he was being that social with that many people he had to be up to something. He wasn't sure if it was his lack of sleep, over working, sheer paranoia, or disdain for Yoshida was driving him, but he was intending to get to the bottom of this odd companionship. He seemed far too excited for whatever it was they were doing for it to be any good. He was sure he'd never seen the top of the class put effort into anything and was now very curious to find out just what it could be.

"Isn't...that exactly what I said to do when we started this conversation?" she crossed her arms and rose and eyebrow at Kojiro. "Seriously. Was anyone listening to anything I said? We just made a full circle in plans. Nobody?"
'Yup. I should have just stayed at my desk.'
'Yup. I should have just stayed at my desk.'
Kojiro rolled his eyes, "Oh my GOD, Kumiko! Does it always have to be about you? Damn, then just go with Rin so I don't have to hear you talk! Isoroku and I will go find Frimun!" He reached down and grabbed Isoroku by the arm hauling him out of the chair. "Let's go! Rin call Isoroku when you guys are done!"
"What the hell! It has nothing to do with me! ARGH!" So close, she was so close to having one conversation with Kojiro that didn't escalate into a fight of some sort. "God dammit!" she swore, stomping her foot. "I swear, I could smack him." She opened the sliding door and poked her head out, "I STILL DIDN'T FORGET WHAT YOU SAID YOU JERK!"
Clearing her throat, she walked back to Junsui. She hadn't quite calmed down and it could be heard in her tone. "So are we going or what?"

Kojiro grumbled, "Hate...stupid...who does think...GAH!" He stopped in the stairwell and turned to Isoroku, "What the hell is wrong with that girl!?! She acts like everything she craps out of her mouth is GOLD!"
He punched the wall, "I can't stand it! As if we have nothing to offer! She wasn't even supposed to be involved anyway!"

He'd made up his mind to get to the bottom of this. A few moments after they left he stood from his chair and headed out the door trying to be discreet. He stood outside the door and glanced down the hall to see where his two male classmates were headed. He gave them enough time so they wouldn't notice, but not so much that he couldn't follow their voices.
Kojiro stared at Isoroku, he had no words, well he had two, "Fuck you."
He turned and continued down the stair well. God damn was everyone just going to be an ass today? Maybe having persona's made everyone really annoying? No Mizushima was always annoying...ugh, whatever. He stopped on the freshmen floor and realized he had no clue what homeroom Fridmund was in.
"FUCK!" He held his head. Today just sucked all around.

She followed behind the timid girl, complaining the entire way. "That guy is such an asshole. How on earth do you sit next to him without wanting to just push his head in a bucket of water until the bubbles stop?" she said a string of curses.
Isoroku patted Kojiro on the shoulder.
"Hey, man, calm down. You've got a personal avatar of amazing power... and two girls are into you. This is not a terrible situation. As for our other problem..."
He pointed at a young-looking girl walking past them.
"You! First year! Where's the foreigner? The German. What homeroom?"
