"You idiots better keep your grades up from now on!" Hiruma announces, eyes glittering dangerously as he points his guns at the gathered team. "Or the school won't let you play in the games. And then you'll be useless." He cocks both automatics and glares. "You all know how I feel about useless people."
Which isn't to say the blonde quarterback wouldn't doctor their grades via his computer if necessary, but it wouldn't hurt for the team to show some effort in improving their own scores so that it would make any sudden upturn in their electronic records seem a little more feasible should any snoopy administrative officers feel the need to look into the issue after Hiruma does his magic.
"The three brothers minus one, the ape, the mole, the fatass, and the spinning idiot… all of you have… ONE WEEK to get your grades up!" he announces with finality, looking threateningly at the near-failures.
Then, "Damn secretary, three brothers minus two, Baldy! You're their tutors."
"Eh!"
Hiruma, nonplussed by the group's stunned reactions, simply rests his guns over his shoulders. "You heard me. Practice over."
At the quarterback's revelation, Kuroki and Toganou turn to stare at Jyuumonji, the two of them not having expected him to fail of course, but at the same time, not thinking that Kazuki's grades were good enough to make him tutor material either.
"Huh."
"Huh."
The blonde looks away, shoving his hands into his pockets. "Huh. Whatever."
"Ah, we can have a big study session tonight then! How about that?" Yukimitsu offers, breaking the players' stunned silence and taking charge because this sort of thing is his ultimate forte in life or something.
"Yeah…that's…that sounds nice!" Sena echoes, trying not to look embarrassed as he feels all eyes turn incredulously on him for agreeing so readily. "I'll um…I'll bring some snacks! It'll be fun! We'll all help one another."
"Yeah… we can do it at my house! My mom doesn't mind having people over when it's for studying," Yukimitsu adds, sheepish.
"Ah, really? That's great!"
The fact that Sena seems so eager keeps Jyuumonji from making some sort of derisive statement about the whole thing, even though his two friends are blinking disbelievingly at him for not saying anything against the stupid idea of having to spend their precious Friday night cooped up in a small room with the teammates they seem to spend every other moment of their time with.
But to be fair, Jyuumonji can't say anything because he's too busy standing silently alongside Sena and Yukimitsu, the two shorter boys taking center stage in the talking field as they plan what they're going to go over tonight at the big study session as tutors, both of them full of a sort of weird anticipation that's absolutely inhuman, considering they're talking about schoolwork.
"Um… I can help with science," Jyuumonji offers after a moment, just to get a word in. When Sena and Yukimitsu both look at him he trains his eyes on the ground. "Maybe," he adds, like that one word will save his reputation some.
It doesn't, because Sena only smiles up at him.
"Wah, okay! That's good, because science isn't my best subject," the brown haired boy admits, sounding glad for Kazuki's offer. "You can help tutor me too then, if you don't mind another student."
The blonde shuffles his feet. "Er, whatever." Pause. "I mean, if you want."
"Great!"
The runningback beams.
The lineman turns just a little bit pink.
"Uh…" he starts, rubbing at the back of his neck with one hand. "You can help me with my English then. You know, in return."
Sena blinks. "Eh? Really?"
The blonde looks away. "That is, if you don't mind, I guess."
"No, no, I don't mind! It's a deal then!"
"Well. Uh, okay."
They share an awkward smile.
"Nah…" Monta starts after a moment, the receiver managing to tear his eyes from the scene he and the rest of the team are avidly watching in order to ask his question. "Those two… they do know we're all still here, right?"
