He would wager, with 80 percent accuracy, that Kikumaru had something to do with it. He was fond of pranks, after all, but there was always the possibility that Momoshiro had been involved - along with a five percent margin for error that Fuji always represented in his calculations.

Either way, when he fumbled for his glasses after the shower, blind as a bat, his hand found the pair right where he'd left his. Shoving them on with his customary haste, he noted with surprise that they felt lighter for some reason. A bit suspicious, he headed for the club room's only mirror after wrapping himself in a towel.

The gold-rimmed frames made his face look less threatening, and he could see his eyes. He wasn't sure if he liked it.

"Tezuka?" he called back to the shower area.

"Yes?" The shower cubicle lent Tezuka's voice a certain hollow tone, its already deep tones echoing against the tile walls.

"Someone switched our glasses," he announced.

"Then switch them back," Tezuka sounded cool as usual.

Inui nodded, seeing that as the logical course. He made his way to Tezuka's area, noting his glasses on the towel. Temptation got the better of him.

"Tezuka? Can you step out for a second?"

An annoyed "hrmph" answered him, but he stepped out, his arms across his chest as he stood squinting, unconcerned about his nudity. "Yes?" he seemed a bit testy.

Inui couldn't resist. Hastily he grabbed his glasses, and shoved them on Tezuka's face.

It was strange to see the strong lines of Tezuka's face competing with by the black squares of the frames. It should have been hysterically funny, but Inui felt his stomach twist.

"Can you see?" he asked.

"Perfectly fine," Tezuka replied. His face looked even more foreboding. "What is this about?"

Inui touched the glasses he was wearing, before lowering his eyes. "I didn't realize we wore the same prescription."
