"I'm still not seeing it." Jumonji commented as he flipped through the photo album she had put together.
Suzuna let out a frustrated sigh. They were the only two in the clubhouse at the moment and she was attempting to explain her theory to him, one that she had so far kept solely to herself. "It's not that hard. We have all been sub-conscientiously seeking a standard normal family structure that we could not find at home and have therefore developed it in the other members of the team."
"... what?"
"We've found a family in the team!" She yelled out as she collapsed in a chair.
The line backer turned the page. "So who's what?"
"Taki's the obnoxious uncle that always shows up at holidays- like the black sheep of the family. You, Togano, Kuroki, Daikichi, Kurita, and Yukimitsu are all the uncles that are kind of weird but are fun to be around. Sena and Monta are the cousins. And Musashi's the wise grandfather watching over everyone." Suzuna explained enthusiastically, making wild hand gestures as she spoke.
"Makes sense, I guess." Jumonji stated as she put down the book as leaned back in his chair. "So who are the parents?"
The cheerleader let loose a mischievous grin and it was only then that he heard the faint sounds of arguing.
"You can't threaten the teachers into changing their grades! That's cheating!" Mamori's harsh voice could be heard clearly through the door.
Hiruma's voice was much calmer but still audible. "It's not cheating. It's successful persuasion."
Suzuna gave him a look and Jumonji nodded knowingly as he handed her the album back. "Should have known."
