Advisor 1:
As I had hoped, Wakaba just rejected my 'confession'.
My name is Kanata Ooshima, and I have always had no interest in girls as of now.
The other students and even Shun have made fun of me for 'being into guys' even though I never said that!
Kyouya is my only ally, often telling others to stop teasing me on my behalf.
But even he absentmindedly blurted out that he is interested in finding a cute girlfriend, so he doesn't really understand my pain.
So in order to 'prove' to them that I 'like' girls so I can fit in better with the boys, I 'confessed' to Wakaba, the stoic 'queen of the class'.
Shun and Kyouya both comfort me as I shed crocodile tears.
Natsume and Shinohara both glared at me from afar.
And Kusama breathed a sigh of relief, I know he is betting on Kyouya being the one to steal Wakaba's heart so I can see why he was worried when I 'confessed'.
I quickly recover from my 'heartbreak' and just as I have hoped, people have stopped teasing me about 'being into guys'.
Later that day, I am hanging out online with Skanda.
Shun and Kyouya are too busy to play with us today.
Skanda: [so do you plan on thanking me for helping you yet?]
Huh? The first thing he said today was this? And what did he mean by that?
Skanda: "[or maybe I should ask you to apologise for using me?]
...
Considering the timing...
[Wakaba?]
I asked.
Skanda (Wakaba?) doesn't respond immediately.
Skanda (Wakaba?): [yes and I know about your scheme -_-]
She finally replied.
So the legendary player known as Skanda, is Wakaba!?
Unbelievable, the 'queen of the class' with nearly perfect grades is also a hardcore gamer!?
And this whole time we have been actual friends with Wakaba without knowing!
[Sorry and thank you. How long have you known about us three?]
I asked curiously.
Wakaba: [the day after we met online I overheard your conversation about me]
She replied to my question after a bit, no doubt considering whether to reveal more.
So that's how, make sense.
I have always suspected that she is actually paying close attention to her surroundings while reading her books.
Wakaba: [don't let the other two know I don't plan on getting into relationships]
I guess she doesn't want Shun or Kyouya to know they have been friends with a girl, and we're only having this conversation because she knows I am not into girls yet.
But now I am curious.
[Why don't you want to get into relationships?]
Wakaba doesn't respond immediately again.
Wakaba: [I am a loner no one will truly like me for who I really am at best they just tolerate me besides I know the 'bonds' I have with my 'friends' here won't last we will drift apart as we focus on our own lives and careers with no time to hang out which is why I am making sure I don't form any 'emotional attachment' to anyone here and no I'm not lonely so don't worry about it let's get back to playing shall we?]
Wakaba gave a long reply.
That's...a lot to process.
I am not sure why she sees herself in such a poor light, but it is clear she doesn't believe our friendship will last.
Spider 12:
What the heck was that?!
Gay just confessed to me but it's obvious he didn't mean it at all!
Do you realise how embarrassing it is to be confessed to out of the blue?!
It's basically a public execution! Nai wa!
What kind of prank is this?! Was he playing truth or dare or something?!
And now he is fake crying to be comforted by Fanboy and Kyouya.
Oh, I see, I get it now.
He must have wanted to 'prove' he is into girls by 'confessing' to me, knowing I will reject him without a shred of mercy.
In other words, he used me for his scheme to fit in with the straights.
Actually, now that I think about it, I don't think I have met a non-straight person until Gay.
Or maybe everyone who ain't straight is just pretending to be hetero to avoid being bullied, like Gay here.
I mean, I am like 31% sure I am actually bi, even though I am also pretty sure you don't need to be into women to appreciate the female body.
Seriously though, have you seen Ringleader's bod?
I get the best view while we change for PE.
Feminine and masculine, that's what you get from a female volleyball player all right.
Um, eh, wait, no, I mean, well...Let's not dwell on that anymore.
More importantly, I advocate for equality!
I don't care if he is a part of the minority, he's not getting away with using me like this!
Nai wa!
It's late evening, I have just returned home and finished taking a shower.
I go online and Gay is the only one playing today.
Perfect!
[so do you plan on thanking me for helping you yet?]
I asked, letting my rage seep out.
He doesn't reply.
Yeah no, you are not getting away with this.
[or maybe I should ask you to apologise for using me?]
I added, pressuring him into saying something.
You better say sorry or I will...um...do something...bad...What can I do?
Gay: [Wakaba?]
Well, of course I'm Waka-
Oh, wait, they aren't supposed to know I am Hiiro!
Crud! Duck! Sheet! Nai wa!
Inner Critic: You just exposed yourself! What are you doing, Hiiro, you goddarn idiot sandwich?!
R0b93qgb08yg87gb08n8qybv!
Um um um, cat's out of the bag so I better double down and show no weaknesses!
[yes and I know about your scheme -_-]
That's right, I am the one in charge here!
You're the one panicking over being exposed! Ha!
Gay: [Sorry and thank you. How long have you known about us three?]
It took a while but he finally replied.
There we go, back to-
Eh? Now he wants to know how long I have known their true identities?
Nai wa, do I seriously have to come up with an answer?
Well, I don't see why I should lie now.
[the day after we met online I overheard your conversation about me]
I answered honestly.
I have been paying close attention to those three whenever I could so they don't somehow catch me off guard, same with everyone else to be honest.
I don't want them to know who I really am because it would be weird for a non-tomboy to hang out with three guys by herself.
What about Gung-ho and Clown you ask? Lazy is there too, so it's balanced out.
Besides, even if Clown is the only one hanging out at the arcade with me, I have my disguise to make me feel more comfortable around him.
That and he is such a loser I don't feel threatened by him.
Actually, he is more like a little brother to me at this point anyway, I just want to be mean, as true siblings should be towards each other, heh.
[don't let the other two know I don't plan on getting into relationships]
Nuff said, Gay knowing who I am is an accident anyway.
I still don't plan on revealing my identity to the other two to avoid any unnecessary developments that could get out of hand.
Call me a control freak, I don't care.
Now, let's get back to playing the game.
Gay: [Why don't you want to get into relationships?]
It's obvious, isn't it?
[I am a loner no one will truly like me for who I really am at best they just tolerate me besides I know the 'bonds' I have with my 'friends' here won't last we will drift apart as we focus on our own lives and careers with no time to hang out which is why I am making sure I don't form any 'emotional attachment' to anyone here and no I'm not lonely so don't worry about it let's get back to playing shall we?]
I wrote all of that out.
It's not that I don't want to be loved, I just know it's unrealistic.
I don't deserve to be loved, because I put no effort into loving others. Nai wa.
Now, can we please get back to playing already?
I have had enough of this depressing crud.
