Alright, everyone! There has been a lot of talk about statues beneath the school and this recent infestation, so listen to this! I believe the two are connected!

[That's presumptuous...]

After that small earthquake the other week, Hajime Tanaka and I both fell into underground caverns, and we saw those same strange bugs bring a statue to life! It attacked us, but we made it out in one piece! But now the bugs are up here... they seem harmless on their own, but don't let your guard down!

There you have it. Is that information useful to anybody at all?

[Useful for making it clear who pissed the bugs off enough for them to come to the surface, maybe.]

Statues and sources of electricity! Is it really right to be killing them, though? If they're sentient...

[punchvolcanoes]

While everything has its place in the world, as one of my doji teachers would say...if an ant needs to be squished, then it shall be squished.

They don't seem to have natural predators anyway.

[He used to think along the same lines but Hope's Peak reaaaally fucked him up.]

Nothing above ground, at least. Still, we don't know what might happen if we upset them, or what other shapes they can take!

Well I can't just let 'em chew throw my wires and my mp3 player, right? That thing cost me a small fortune since it's fireproof.

Wait...are you sayin' there might be something down that that is stronger than they are?

[forgetbeam]

You shouldn't concern yourself with such frivolous material possessions anyway! More importantly, we need to keep them from eating at the computers and losing our homework!

[TOP PRIORITY.]

But that is one theory. I wondered why they would come up here at all, and one possibility I thought of was that they're running from something. It does sound possible, doesn't it?

Hey! Music is important to me! I can't do homework without a little salsa playin, it keeps my mind up and all.

But if there's somethin' down there that even they might fear...

I NEED TO GO FIGHT IT!

[It's uh...a Charizard thing.]

Actually, I find classical to be quite--

[forgetbeam]

W-Wait! Hold on, you don't even know what it is! Or if it even exists!!

[throughthefireandflames]

Right, right!

But if it does, I want first dibs!

[forgetbeam]

I get it...

You're a reckless moron!

[punchvolcanoes]

EXCUSE ME?!?!

[forgetbeam]

Slaughtering the creatures without considering the consequences, eagerly jumping at the chance to fight a hypothetical enemy you know nothing about... Your true character is shining through! You're going to get yourself and others into trouble like this, you know that?!

[punchvolcanoes]

Those things were attacking my mp3 player! It's not like I was out there freely attacking everything! Yet. But fine, if we do find out that there's a bigger threat, or if the bugs start attacking everyone, then I'll go and fight it, but not before that.

[Gotta remember her training...]

Now...one more thing if you try to call me a Moron again, I'll make sure that it'll be the last time! If you're unhappy with my actions, then we'll just dish it out in the stadium!

...when it's working anyway, I think the bugs messed it up.

[forgetbeam]

If you don't want to be called a moron, think before you act! That's all there is to it! There's no reason to fight over it.

Besides, the fact that you've changed your attitude is already tremendous progress!
