Needless to say, it was hard to refrain from laughing. Sakaki felt her lips twitch into a smile for a split second but quickly reformed the neutral look on her face. It was hard to tell if Yomi was joking or not but the tone of voice she was using and the frantic pat down of her coat revealed that she was dead serious.
Maaaaaybe I should stop… but it’s so fun!
Blinking a few times, Sakaki contemplated attempting Tomo’s infamous laugh but decided against it at the last minute for two reasons: A) She would most likely fail at doing such a thing, and B) Yomi would probably smack her across the face and leave her.
Instead, the schoolgirl grinned evilly and gave a dark chuckle, similar to Takino’s when she revealed her plan for studying.
“Succumb to what?” The grin had grown into a full blow insane-like smile. She was having to much fun with this.
They weren’t even past the front gate.
Sakaki, in all honesty, actually wanted to know what Yomi’s homemade drug actually was. Most likely had some dory of tranquilizer in it that numbed the senses or something along those lines. Either way, some part of the tall girl’s mind told her that she was taking this a tad too far but another, larger part was saying “Continue. This could lead somewhere…”
“S-Succumb to the Takino-itis, of course! The second most deadly disease only next to the Hinamizawa Syndrome!” Of course, that latter one was only fictional; it came from another one of Yomi’s visual novels, except not perverse this time. Though it had a lot to do with cicadas…one of the bespectacled schoolgirl’s greatest fears.
Yomi grabbed ahold of Sakaki’s shoulders and looked at her intently.

“D-Denial of the disease? That’s another symptom! O-Oh dear…”
Now the question is, was Sakaki merely teasing her, which is the more likely case? Or is this a rare occasion where the planets were aligned and a sweet, gentle individual such as Sakaki has transformed into Tomo Takino? Was she going to shrink in height and bust size as well?
The schoolgirl wished she was only joking, but any matter that dealt with Tomo was no laughing matter. Yomi had a tendency to lose her sanity over such issues. Spending time with Takino pretty much shaped that psyche.

“All the curses…I cannot locate that drug! O-Oh no…that’s right!”
“Yo, Yomi! Are those candies ya got on yourself?”
“N-No, Tomo, these are…”
“Thanks!!”
To think that she lost all those pills simultaneously. There was only one way to get the full diagnosis. Yomi also learned this while taking a psychology course.
“Sakaki…this is a very important question, and this will determine EVERYTHING. What shouldn’t we forget…?”
Please don’t say lunch, please don’t say lunch, please don’t say lunch…
“Hey, stupid! You want some… water?”
“…”

—Cho stepped in along with the girl, not straying from her side whatsoever. She knew that this labyrinth could be scary for those that weren’t accustomed to it. She remembers taking new faces, human and butterfly alike, in here that became quiet uneasy. Even Cho herself was weary the first time she entered this place.—
—However, Cho knew the way now. And now… the girl right next to her would find her way, too.—
—As the schoolgirl looked up toward the stars, Cho looked up as well, allowing the beams of light from the stars and the moon to cascade over them. And after a moment, she pointed at the moon… then pointed to the pathway at their feet. The light from the moon reflected off of the stones there, making them shine brightly. And at the paths ahead, some were also lit while others were not. Cho had to teach her to take the lit path.—
—Tugging at the schoolgirl’s sleeve, the young lady walked down the glittering pathway. And once they reached the fork in the paths, Cho stepped towards the one that was lit up. And then, to remind the girl she was with, Cho pointed up towards the moon once again.—
“I do hope I’m not being led on here, and Takino is ready to conk my head with a baguette…”

But indeed, after gazing upon the luminous moonlight, Yomi took note of some of the stones being reflected. It caught her attention, no doubt, but it took the bespectacled schoolgirl a while to realize that such a pathway was obviously the one to take.
Though the key point is that she didn’t recognize it right away.
“Hmm…” At the fork in the labyrinth, Yomi didn’t even notice that Cho had walked onto the brightly lit pathway. Rather unfortunately, she allowed herself to merely waltz into the wrong one until finally seeing that the young lady pointed her finger at the looming moon.
“A-Ah, yes, of course…” Ashamed that she didn’t see it earlier, Mizuhara proceeded to follow Cho and go down the proper pathway.
Okay…whatever you say, Yo-Yo!
-Marty amusingly sulked down like a child who was unable to get their favorite video game or toy, but a few seconds afterwards, he took a sly glance at Yomi.-
Not unless…you’re chicken.
…!!

“…what did you just call me, Marty?”
Heh, well, yeah, rollerblading isn’t an easy task at all. I had a hand at it…then failed miserably.
-Indeed, his parents wanted Marty and his siblings to be “professional rollerbladers” to fit in with all the other children in Hill Valley, but that didn’t work out so well.-
C’mon, once ya get the hand of it, it’ll be like riding a bike! You never forget how.
Maybe I shouldn’t tell him that I don’t know how to ride bikes either…

“Honestly, McFly, I think I’ll pass for this one. I don’t mean to make you upset, but safety is a top priority, and I haven’t been raised on such wild child ideology to begin with.”
Azumanga Daioh! Osaka. Such an airhead. :)
Sakaki laughed whole-heartedly and pat Yomi on the head, hoping to reassure her that she was only joking. The blush radiated from the shorter girl and warmed up the former as well, making the small amount of coldness she was feeling vanish.
“Don’t worry about it. I was only kidding…” Aw, she’s so cute when she’s flustered…
Seeing how such a inference had made Yomi so uncomfortable and paranoid about turning into Tomo, Takino-itis its given name, made Sakaki feel as though she should see how far she could take this… without being a jerk about it, of course. Smirking inwardly smirked and began to lightly cough into her hand, leaning away from Yomi.
“O-Oh, where’d *cough* this come from…?” The supposed “Takino-itis” was working it’s way into her pranking section of her brain. Letting out one final cough, Sakaki gazed at the floor with a blank expression, trying her hardest not to laugh.
“…why in the heck?” After looking up from the floor, Sakaki uttered the sacred words that Tomo said almost everyday. It might as well have been her catchphrase. To add to the effect, the tall girl lightly bonked Yomi on her forehead with the palm of her hand.
Oh god, I’m evil…
“Why in the what…?” Yomi’s glasses infamously fogged up…again.
“Y-You didn’t just say that.” Oof. “O-Or do that even…” Alas, Tomo’s New Years Dream was being manifested all over again. Or better yet, the bespectacled schoolgirl’s indirect, mind boggling nightmare of inception was being emanated from Sakaki.

“T-That’s not funny! I-I can’t even fathom the thought of dating Tomo all of a sudden! UH OH I HEAR THE FANGIRLS SCREAMING” Another blush illuminated across her face as Yomi sulked in her walking position. “If you’re really catching such a disease, then I have no choice but to treat it, T-Tomo! I-I mean, Sakaki!!” She began fidgeting around through her coat pockets for something.
“I’ve devised a secret drug from home ingredients that should do the trick. I carry it everywhere just in case Takino somehow influences my tastes in a negative light.”
Mizuhara’s ideas were as bizarre as ever. Of course, this is coming from the person who thought of a special button that could kill every single cicada in the country, but its mechanisms would be flawed and thrown into a state of Catch-22.

“A-Ah…I can’t seem to find it…oh, Sakaki, please don’t succumb to it!!”
U-Uh…and what if I said that I did expect it?
*sigh*

“Then that means I can’t help you there anymore, Marty.”
