"Good grief, Eijun. It's not that spicy."

"I'll go get a napkin..."

But food! Food was good, and there was no problem food wouldn't fix, even if Eijun's stomach felt weirdly not empty. His face felt kind of hot too. And his head was heavy, like he could barely lift it – so he needed food in order to keep his strength up, right?

"Ah, Eijun was acting weird before lunch too," Haruichi corrected. "Weirder than usual, I mean."

Everyone watched Eijun drip snot into cafeteria made curry for a moment longer before Kuramochi piped up, "I thought he was just thinking something perverted."

"Now that you mention it, Eijun hasn't interrupted class yet."

"That settles it. Something is definitely – Eijun, stop shoveling food in your mouth! You'll make yourself throw up."

"Buh yew need to eat to be healfy – "

"The opposite happens if you're trying to eat while sick," Haruichi sighed.

"He probably has no experience with these things," Miyuki pointed out. "Idiots aren't supposed to catch colds..."

I lost the original draft for this "chapter" and then forgot I had written it for a while. ^^'
