The day before…
"WHAT!?"
"Kasumi, please don't stand on your desk."
"But Miss Yukizome, this is devastating!" Kasumi cries.
Chisa Yukizome, homeroom teacher of Class 80-A, smiles patiently at the Ultimate Prankster. "I'm sure we can come up with another great idea together as a class!" she says positively.
Candace raises an eyebrow. "How can we come up with an idea as a class if half of us are missing, including our class rep?" she asks.
Aja leans back in her chair and sighs, displeased. "I put my costume on and everything…" she grumbles.
"You know if we did do a haunted house, it wouldn't have been today, right…?" Kensuke asks, looking over Aja's unsettlingly realistic serial killer costume.
Toshiro stands up from his desk and walks over to Aja. "You're so cute-"
"She's literally covered in fake blood…a suspicious amount of 'fake' blood, actually-"
"-Aja!" he beams and puts his hands on her shoulders. "You should really lend your talents to the drama club-"
"I refuse." Aja deadpans.
"...You know, Kanna helped out the drama club once-"
Aja's eye twitches.
Chisa laughs and shoos Toshiro away from Aja. "Come on, someone else has to have an idea." she urges her class. "Anything at all? Armen?"
"I don't care, I'm not going to be there so do what you want." Armen states flatly.
"Toshiro?" Chisa tries.
Toshiro shrugs and smiles apologetically. "I've got nothin'." he says.
Kaori raises her hand. "What about a maid cafe?" she suggests nonchalantly. "Girls wear maid outfits, boys wear whatever butlers wear, we serve whatever…easy enough, right?" Kaori says.
The idea makes Kasumi, Aja, and Kensuke pause.
Chisa beams. "Great idea! We'll add it to the board-!"
Kasumi puts her hand straight up in the air. "I-I like the maid cafe idea." she says.
"I vote for the maid cafe too!" Ken agrees, raising his hand and eagerly nodding his head. "Can the boys wear maid outfits too?"
Aja raises her hand too. "I would - I would also be interested in the maid cafe." she stammers and her face flushes lightly. "Simply because I've never done one before. I definitely don't have any ulterior motives. I'm not at all interested in seeing Kan-"
"Maish…maid…cafe…?" Masaki mumbles groggily, lifting his head off his desk.
"MAID CAFE!" the trio cheers excitedly.
8:00 AM | The day of…
"Good morning students. Today is March 7th, 20XX. As you know, today marks the first day of the fundraiser for Grandview Academy. Classes will be cut short due to proceedings beginning this afternoon. That is all, have a good day."
Sora stares at the costume waiting for her on her bed. With her closet and drawers being cleaned out of all of her other clothes, she doesn't have much of a choice.
She should've known better than to leave Kasumi alone in her room while she showered.
One of her eyes twitches.
"...I'm gonna kill her."
8:08 AM
Unbeknownst to Sora, Kasumi didn't just strike her room.
And she didn't do it alone.
"Oh my," Kanna says and puts a hand on her cheek as she looks around at her empty closet and drawers. "Is this a new game Aja is challenging me to…?" she wonders and her eyes drift towards the outfit laid out on her bed.
Kanna really didn't expect this from Aja of all people.
She smiles. "How fun!"
8:14 AM
"Hmm…yes, this will do…" Takeshi says to himself after giving his look one last once over in the mirror and turning to exit his room. "Kensuke Oishi! Good morning to you." he smiles politely when he opens the door. Takeshi smiles again when he sees the two girls behind Ken. "And Kasumi Yuan and Aja Wanatabe - so many guests this morning!" he beams. "To what do I owe the pleasure?" Takeshi asks.
"Um…" Kasumi hides the Takeshi-sized maid costume behind her back. "Nothing really." she says quickly and changes the subject. "I see you're in costume already."
Takeshi looks down at his outfit again and nods with a proud smile. "Yes! Do you like it? I made it myself last night." he says, pleased with himself.
"Of course you did…" Aja mutters under her breath.
"You sure did." Kensuke says, staring unabashedly at Takeshi.
The trio are too late to strike Takeshi's room and leave him nothing but a skimpy maid costume to wear…because he's already wearing one of his own making.
"Well, this saves us the trouble of taking his curtains and sheets so he can't make an outfit out of those…" Kasumi says quietly and slowly backs away from the boys with Aja. "Well, Aja and I should go make sure…other things are going…well." she says.
"Yes." Aja agrees. "So…bye." she says and she and Kasumi quickly run out of the dormitory.
Takeshi waves at the girls as they disappear before turning to Ken with a gasp. "Kensuke! Would you like to join me in wearing a maid outfit instead of a suit?"
Ken blinks. "Oh - well - I, um-"
"I can whip up a costume for you in no time-" Takeshi says and pauses, gasping again. "In fact, go bring me Hitoshi and Toshiro, I'll make one for them too!" he says excitedly.
Kensuke smiles and scratches the back of his head. "Oh dear."
8:31 AM
"You."
"Ah, just in time!" Kasumi smiles innocently when Sora throws open the door to their classroom. "You look so cute, Sora!" she coos.
Sora grits her teeth, blushing furiously. "Where are my clothes, Kasumi!?" she demands.
"I could ask you the same thing…" Yosuke mutters under his breath, looking at Sora's outfit distastefully.
Candace glares at him. "How many times do you need to be reminded this isn't the 1800s anymore?"
Kasumi wags her finger at Sora as the angry and embarrassed redhead stalks towards her. "Tsk, tsk, tsk." she says. "Do you really want those to be your last words before you're arrested?" Kasumi asks with a grin.
"You-" Sora blinks. "Arrested?"
"Arrested." a new voice says from behind Sora.
Sora turns to find the Ultimate Speedrunner from Class 80-B standing in the doorway and scribbling something down on a clipboard. "What the hell do you mean 'arrested'?" she asks. "The activities don't start-"
"The booths don't open until this afternoon." Ryoji Yamauchi corrects her with a cheerful smile as he looks up from his clipboard. "Every other activity began ten minutes ago at nine. I already arrested Armen before you got here." he says and clears his throat as he dramatically recites a quote from his clipboard. "Stop right there, criminal scum! Nobody breaks the law on my watch! I'm confiscating your stolen goods. Now pay for your fine or it's off to jail." Ryoji declares and points an accusatory finger at Sora.
Hitoshi, wearing the maid outfit Takeshi more or less forced him into, snickers under his breath.
"I don't want to hear that from you, femboy." Sora snaps.
Hitoshi stops laughing.
Sora rubs her temples, grimacing. "How much is the fine?" she asks with a sigh.
"Twenty-two thousand yen!" Ryoji answers cheerfully.
Every other head in the classroom turns to look towards the Ultimate Prankster.
"What?" Kasumi says.
"How-?"
"Don't ask questions you don't want the answer to."
9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
After spending the entire morning locked in a cage with Armen and Katashi Hitsugaya from Class 80-B, Sora successfully served her time and was released from prison.
(Strangely, it seems like someone keeps paying to keep Armen and Katashi locked up…)
With Armen locked up, Luan preoccupied with art club activities, and Yosuke in charge of an activity somewhere else in the school, the eighteen person class is down to fifteen - sixteen if you count little Yukiko following Kasumi around like a lost puppy (her mother is busy with school and whatever the art club is doing is too chaotic for Yukiko to be around so Luan gave her to Kasumi).
Despite the smaller class size, the group still manages to turn their classroom around in time for their cafe to open in the afternoon. The girls, including a select handful of boys (Takeshi, Kensuke, Hitoshi, and Toshiro) are wearing maid outfits and the remaining boys are dressed nicely in suits.
And with that, it's time for the gates to Hope's Peak to open.
12:04 PM | At one table…
Juriya narrows her eyes. "You mean to tell me there was a vote and this is what we ended up with?"
Yume and Mai giggle at the look on Juriya's face. "Oh come on," Yume says. "You're totally rocking that maid outfit, babe." she says with a playful wink.
Juriya grumbles. "Why are you even here? Don't you have a haunted house to go…I don't know, haunt?" she asks.
"It's not our shift." Mai answers simply and picks up the menu. "Anyway, I'll have the…rainbow shaped peanut butter sandwiches…?" she trails off questioningly.
Juriya shakes her head and sighs, pulling out her notepad and writing down Mai's order. "It's the name of Yukiko's stuffed toy today. The sandwiches are shaped like narwhals." she says and turns to Yume. "What would you like?"
Yume bites her lip and cups her chin in the space between her index finger and thumb. "Gimme a twirl, mamacita - ow ow ow ow ow!"
12: 13 PM | At another table…
Sasaki scans the menu for a drink to go along with her meal, Masaki standing beside her waiting to complete her order. "Ooo! And I'll have the - Masaki?"
"Zzzzz…"
"Masaki!?" Sasaki cries. She looks around in a panic before spotting another butler standing nearby. "Ah, excuse me Valentin, Masaki fell asleep standing-"
"Zzzzz…"
"Valentin!?"
12:15 PM | At the neighboring table…
"Please, for the love of God, stop ordering dishes!" Kaori cries. "You're going to eat us out of house and home!"
"MORE!" Kano demands. "This is an eating contest! What kind of eating contest would this be if we didn't have any food!?"
"Yeah!" Sting and Harlequin agree.
Despite their demands for more food, the three boys look like they're about to burst.
12:30 PM | At a-
"Oh for crying out loud-" Aja throws her hands up in the air in exasperation when she sees Ryoji approaching. "This is the fourth time!"
Ryoji smiles unapologetically, "I'm just doing my job." he says and taps on his clipboard. "And the job calls for your arrest. Again." Ryoji says.
"You're taking too much joy out of this." Aja scowls. "What are the charges this time?" she asks.
Ryoji frowns slightly in confusion. "Failure to bend and snap properly. The accusing party said it was a reference to 'Illegally Ginger'." he says with a shrug.
Kanna beams as she shuffles past Aja. "Looks like I win again, Aja!" she says as she heads back to the 'kitchen' with another order.
Aja blinks owlishly at him, ignoring Kanna. "Bend and…? Ugh," she pinches the bridge of her nose and squeezes her eyes shut, trying to think. "People have been making me do weird stuff all day, I don't…whatever. Let's go." Aja sighs and follows a gleeful Ryoji out of the classroom.
(Nearby, Yume snickers under her breath.)
12:34 PM | In the 'kitchen'...
A bemused Candace watches as Shun skates around the classroom balancing food and drinks in her arms perfectly.
"Candy, I need - why are you watching her so closely?" Kensuke asks as he looks up from his cutting board.
Candace smiles and shakes her head. "No real reason. The skating around with food just reminds me of a fast food restaurant in America."
"You know we have places like that here too, right?" Ken says. "The waitresses wear kitsune masks and you have to try removing them," he says. "I've never been but I've seen some videos of failed attempts."
Candace gasps and slides closer to Ken. "Tell me more, malewife."
Kensuke rolls his eyes and smiles. "Help me cut these sandwiches and I will."
12:42 PM | At Ryoji's prison...
"Welcome back, Wanatabe." Armen says dryly as Ryoji locks Aja up once again.
Aja shoots him a cold look. "Bite me." she mutters and turns to the other prisoner who's been locked up all day. "Hello, Katashi."
Katashi Hitsugaya, an upperclassman in Class 78th and a guy who's known for his less than pleasant attitude, perks up ever so slightly at the sight of the Ultimate Moral Philosopher. "Aja. Shall we continue where we left off?"
Aja sighs as she takes a seat between the two boys. "I suppose so. Now, as I was saying, a lot of people are under the belief that the study of moral philosophy is a sign of the decline of valuable philosophical work, however…"
Ryoji tunes out the philosophy fans and turns back to his makeshift desk, looking at his list for his next victim.
…
Ryoji sighs, already dreading approaching her. "Come on, why her again…?"
12:50 PM | Back in Classroom 80-A…
Yukiko tugs at Kasumi's skirt. "KasuKasu, what's Mr. Baldie doing?" she asks, pointing at an unhappy Yosuke standing before a delighted Kensuke and an amused Takeshi.
Kasumi turns around and frowns thoughtfully. "That is an excellent question, Yuki." she says and grabs Yukiko's hand. "Let's go find out."
"-and I now pronounce you…" Yosuke trails off, grumbling as he handcuffs the two boys together.
Ken is practically bouncing in place. "Come on, say it!" he says eagerly.
Takeshi smiles calmly. "Don't be a poor sport, Yosuke Hanamura." he says. "Go on, pronounce us married." he says.
"That's not my n-" Yosuke sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose, glaring at the Ultimate Tailor. "Never mind. It's only for the next twelve hours…" he corrects him and sighs again. "I now pronounce you wed for the next twelve hours. As you have now committed to each other, you must 'stick' together through thick and thin, blah blah blah." he says blandly. "You may now-" Yosuke gags."You may now kiss your husband."
Kasumi's eyes widen when Takeshi kisses Kensuke on the cheek. "Shall we get back to work, husband?" the blonde asks.
Yosuke sighs for the third time. "Can I go now-?"
"No!" Kasumi shouts and latches onto Yosuke's legs when he tries to walk away. "How do I get in on this!?" she cries.
"...What?" Yosuke says, confused. "You want to get 'married' too?" he asks.
"Yes!" Kasumi says eagerly.
"To who?"
Ken grins. "Oh Yosuke, come on now." he says. Beside him, Takeshi pats Yukiko on the head as the Ultimate Caregiver prepares to ruin Yosuke's day for the second time. "Don't tell me you've forgotten who her best friend is?"
Yosuke blinks. Then, it hits him. "...No." he gasps in horror.
"I want to marry my raccoon, Yosuke Sakurai!" Kasumi demands, tightening her grip around Yosuke's legs.
"You want to what your what?"
Yosuke pales when the best friend in question walks over, looking down at the Ultimate Prankster preventing him from leaving.
Kasumi mentally smirks, already knowing how she's gonna get Sora on her side: "Sora!" she pouts. "Yosuke's being homophobic and refuses to let me marry you for the next twelve hours!"
Sora glares daggers at the Ultimate Priest. "Is that so?"
1:02 PM
Ryoji trudges into Class 80-A to find all is normal.
Except…
"What's wrong with her?" Ryoji asks as he passes by Sora taking an order and an uncharacteristically quiet Kasumi fiddling with the hem of her skirt.
Sora glances at him. "We got married and I kissed her cheek and she forgot how to act." she says and turns back to her table. "What do you want?"
The young man at her table coos, "Oh come on, Sora~! Is that any way to talk to your big brother?" he pouts. "This is a maid cafe so give me the maid cafe treatment!"
Sora deadpans. "I don't think that's something you should be asking your sister." she says dryly.
Ryoji continues on to his target. He clears his throat when he sees her busy with another table. "Um, excuse me, Harumi-"
Harumi wordlessly reaches into her pocket and blindly throws a wad of cash at Ryoji.
"Thanks, Harumi." Ryoji says when it smacks him in the face and drops to the floor.
1:07 PM
Ryoji comes back again five minutes later and-
"Jesus fuck, I just paid you!" Harumi snaps when she sees the blond boy walk into the maid cafe.
The comment earns the pair a few odd looks from parents and guests who don't attend Hope's Peak.
Ryoji blushes embarrassedly. "Wh-? No! I'm not here for you!" he says.
That comment doesn't seem to help his case.
Harumi scoffs, offended. "What? Not here for me? What's that supposed to mean?"
"Exactly what it sounds like!" Ryoji insists. "I'm hungr-"
"Do you think you have better people to arrest or something?" Harumi continues, abandoning the couple who was in the middle of giving her their order and stalks towards Ryoji. "Do you know who I am, vomit eyes?"
Ryoji blinks and adjusts his glasses self-consciously. "Vom-?"
"Move." Hitoshi says, pushing past Harumi to get to Ryoji. He smiles apologetically. "Sorry about that. I'll get you a table." he says and escorts Ryoji safely away from the Ultimate Confectioner.
Harumi stomps her feet, extremely displeased. "Who the fuck do you think you are you filthy farm rat!?"
Hitoshi whispers for Ryoji to ignore her and sits him down at a table. He pulls a menu out from between his apron and skirt. "What can I get for y-?"
"Ah, Mister Hitoshi, I need you for a moment."
Hitoshi and Ryoji turn to see Yosuke standing with one of the twins from Class 80-B. She smiles and gives him a small wave. "Hi." she says. "Someone wants us to be handcuffed for the next twelve hours."
"Oh." Hitoshi says and looks down at his outfit. "Uh, I'm not usually dressed like this." he says with an awkward blush on his cheeks. "You're…Sumire, right?" Hitoshi asks.
"That's right," Sumire says with another cheerful smile. "If you forget, just think of me as the red one and my sister as the blue one-"
"SUMIRE!"
"-or her as the loud one and me as the normal one." Sumire says and turns towards the door to find her dear twin sister standing there out of breath. "Hello, sister." she says with a smile.
"Why is she covered in blood?" Hitoshi asks with a frown.
"Details." Ryoji says, waving it off. "More importantly, she doesn't like sharing so you're gonna have to fight for your wife." he says.
Shion, 'the blue one', proceeds to berate the boys for the next ten minutes and demands Yosuke release Sumire back into 'her custody'.
Man, Ryoji just wanted to get something to eat…
1:34 PM
"Shun, have you seen Toshi anywhere?" Toshiro asks with a frown, looking around the busy classroom for his farm boy companion.
"Hitoshi? Nah, ain't seen him since the blue twin from Class 80-B yelled at him." Shun says. "Why? Do you need someth-? Oh God." she says lowly when a group of kids in matching clothes pokes their heads into the classroom.
Toshiro follows her line of sight and gasps excitedly when he sees the color scheme the group of kids are wearing, a boy in the Hope's Peak school uniform at the helm. "Shu! I didn't know your rollerskating gang was that big!"
Shun smiles nervously, glancing between her working classmates and the group at the door. "We, uh, might've gained a bit of popularity when the public learned that the leader of the Tokyo Rakshasa and its second in command were accepted into Hope's Peak." she says. "I didn't realize we got this big though…" she mutters, trailing off.
"Ah! There she is! Shun, over here! We want food!"
The heads of the Class 80-A maids and butlers turn towards the noise at the door to their classroom, then unhappily turn towards Shun when they see the amount of incoming customers.
Shun starts sweating anxiously.
"Shun…." Juriya starts with a dangerously calm smile on her face. "I see you invited your entire friend group to join us…all at once." she says.
"Yeah, no, I'm out." Masaki says, takes a seat at the table he just served, and puts his head down to sleep.
"...Surprise?"
2:33 PM
Luan opens the door to his classroom to find all of his classmates but Toshiro taking a nap on the floor or on a desk.
After hours of nonstop working on their feet, the maids and butlers of Class 80-A were finally due for a break.
Toshiro smiles cutely when he sees Luan walk in. "Don't they look so cute when they're asleep?" he asks.
"E-Erm…"
Toshiro's smile widens when he sees the look on Luan's face. "I'm only joking…partially." he winks and pulls out his phone, tapping on it a few times. "Here, I took some pictures of Yukiko helping us - now she was cute!" Toshiro coos as he sends the pictures to Luan.
Luan smiles. "Thank you." he says and starts going around the room poking each of his sleeping classmates to make sure they're still breathing. He laughs quietly when he reaches a group of five on the floor: Sora, Kasumi, Takeshi, and Kensuke laying on the ground and Yukiko sprawled out on top of them using them as a mattress.
He's all finished with the art club's presentation now so while he doesn't exactly have a costume to match his classmates, he can help them out when the cafe opens back up again. Luan takes a seat beside Yukiko and her four person mattress to wait for them to wake up.
Class 80-B is probably having a better time with their haunted house…after all, they have Nemiko and Yuuji on their side.
Just as Luan is about to take out his phone to look at the pictures of Yukiko Toshiro sent to him, Takeshi sits up abruptly, startling Luan and making Toshiro laugh. His blue eyes are wide as he looks around. "I sensed a fashion emergency." Takeshi says and slaps Kensuke awake, making the poor Caregiver scream. "Kensuke Oishi, wake up! I have work to do!" he demands.
Luan starts sweating nervously when Takeshi locks eyes with him. "O-Oh dear…"
