Quote:"Malicorne," Guiche began, latching onto the change of subject
gratefully. "The order is not meant to be just a means for the members
to impress women. If we're…."
The chubby boy cut off the impending
lecture from his captain instantly. "I know that! But it's still not
fair! Guiche has Montmorency and those three!" he waved at the fangirls.
It looked like I wasn't the only one who never bothered to learn their
names. "Gimli and Raynold have Katie, and are both popular with the rest
of the academy!" Katie flushed brightly at the implication that she was
dating both the boys at once, and the two males looked at each other,
and then both turned to glance to the side while scratching their heads
in embarrassment. "And don't even get me started on you!" he hissed
venomously, pointing a finger in accusation at me. Siesta and Kirche
simultaneously leaned in so they could cuddle against me, and I cleared
my throat and glanced to the side. I heard two snickers emit at that.
One of them I was positive was Louise, and the other was most likely
Derflinger. "Two women at once, another at the castle, and that whole
inn back in the city!" We never should have taken the order to the
Charming Faerie Inn. Really, that had just been adding fuel to the fire.
"You just have women falling out of the sky for you! Why! Why can't
they fall out of the sky for me!"
Right then, in what I instantly
knew as a absolute proof in both the sentience of the Root, and that it
was indeed a malicious entity that took joy from the pain of others, a
naked woman fell out of the sky and landed feet first on the boy in the
middle of the meltdown with a loud shout of "Kyui!"

Quote:"Irukukuu told you! Irukukuu is Irukukuu!" the dragon snapped
childishly, folding her arms as she pouted. It was obvious the immature
reptile turned mammal thought asking her who she was to be a pointless
question after she had already told her name. "If Irukukuu wasn't
Irukukuu than Irukukuu wouldn't have said Irukukuu was Irukukuu,"
Irukukuu grumbled. "But since Irukukuu had already said she was
Irukukuu, then why do you keep asking Irukukuu if Irukukuu is Irukukuu?"
The dragon paused, and put one hand to her chin again. "Kyuuiii," she
mumbled, looking confused. "What was Irukukuu talking about again?"
