Firm and smug, huh...

[ At the babble, he sighs. By now he's aware that Ishimaru always speaks without filter, so that's just him saying what he thinks... Well, that's also why he trusts him so. No offense taken, it'll probably look wrong if he's wearing it bare-chested anyway. ]

Ooh? Ain't that lookin' good on ya?!

[ Nodding proudly, the smirk on his face is almost as loud as his voice. ]

Yeah, you look much more like a teenager that way!

[ No... offense... not that he even realises that it can be offensive, welp. Meanwhile, Mondo finally gets one arm in the white-clad uniform, even if every single fiber of it seems to be threatening to rip with any sudden movement. Now to the other hand... ]

Hngkー! God, this is crazy tight.

[ Is this whole uniform even enough to cover his back? Who fucking knows. He sort of gets the idea now, though he has to be super careful if he doesn't want to break the whole piece of clothing into pieces... ]

I am? [He replies with a nervous smile.] Well, I am flattered that I look well like this, but I did not think that this would make me look any more like my age...

[With that, he finally lifts the tokkoufuku and drapes it over his shoulders, then puts his arms through it. ...Then he tries to button it up.

But in the process of this, he frets at Mondo.]

I apologize if it is a bit small for you, Kyoudai! Do you require any assistance?

[ Mondo doesn't comment much further as Ishimaru continues to button up the tokkoufuku. For a sec there he was about to tell him to leave it open as how he usually wears it, but now he's kinda curious to see how it looks when Ishimaru gets it all buttoned all the way up, so he didn't. ~~Will Ishimaru be able to see the light.~~ ]

Nah, I'm doin' just fine. You settle yours.

[ He says as he pushes his arm further and there's a soft 'rip' noise from his back side. Haha. It's fine, it's fine. It's probably just a small rip. ]

If you say so!

[~~What a beautiful comic!!~~ Ishimaru dutifully continues to button it up, soon having it buttoned up to his chin!

But then he blinks as he thinks he hears something.]

...What was that?

[ His tokkoufuku sure looks different when worn by a different person. Somehow, it lacks the menacing look and it just looks rather... how does he put it? Tame? Especially with how you can barely see Ishimaru's fingers out of those sleeves. The sight really is tickling. ~~Is this what a boyfriend's shirt looks like.~~ It really reminds him of their difference in size.

He smirks, but not for long. He heard that too. Heck, he felt that. ]

Uh. Nothin'? What was what?

[ His smile's crooked and obviously awkward. Instead of stopping, Mondo continues to squeeze his arm further, and by the time his fingers can touch the edge of the sleeve, another soft rip! can be heard. He turns his head behind him, acting like it came from somewhere else. ]

O, oh, yeah I heard that too, wonder where that was from... Ha ha...

[Ishimaru experimentally waves his arms around a little in the too-long sleeves. This is certainly quite the unusual experience!

Then he frowns as he hears another noise. This is turning out to be quite the puzzle!]

Ah... Well... It sounds as if something is tearing, Kyoudai! But what could it be...? [There's nothing behind Mondo that could be tearing, could it?]

[ The way Ishimaru waves his arms around makes him think of a kyonshi, but he has to swallow down his silly comment as a much more grave situation has arised: he can now feel how far the tear has gone. It starts from bottom up, halfway through the uniform's backside. ]

Haha, yeah, I wonder...

[ Well. They've gone this far, let's just get it done and over with. ]

More importantly, how do I look?

[ The sleeves are latched on tight through Mondo's arms shape. Any kind of sudden movement is likely to rip it apart, so he keeps his arms straight and unmoved. At this point, buttoning up the shirt is obviously out of the question. ]

[So that's what that's called!

More importantly, his brother has asked him how he looks! Ishimaru wants to be as accurate as possible with his assessment, because that is what Mondo deserves! So he stares him down seriously for a few moments as he considers all of the factors.]

Hmmm... Hmmmmmm!

[Then he raises a hand as he makes his declaration.]

Brother, you look quite formal and handsome dressed like that! It could possibly stand to be a size larger on you, but it seem that you're standing properly! [Even if that's really because of the tightness...]

I am also sorry to say that your hair style clashes with the image, but beyond that you are starting to look like a very diligent young man!

[ He's not even going to retort at the hand-raising because there won't be end to it. ]

You're sayin' like I don't stand properly...

[ You don't, Mondo. ]

Aaah? [ A light scoff. ] What, you want me to slick my hair back? I mean... I guess if it's just for this time, I don't mind.

[ There's a closet here, so he can grab some hair gel or something. But to get to the closet... he needs to crab walk his way... slooowly.

Which is very weird and unnatural. Hmm, wonder why. ]

[Ishimaru's eyes widen in surprise!]

Ah! You do not have to go that far! ...But, if you are willing, I assure you that you will look quite dashing!

[Ishimaru then looks a bit puzzled at Mondo's trot.]

Is everything alright, Kyoudai?

[ Well, if they're gonna do this, they might as well do it to the end. It's not like he's gonna die if his hair isn't on pompadour for probably an hour or two, so what the hell. He shrugs, a smirk poking at the edge of his lips. ]

Heh. You'll realise I look best with this hairstyle.

[ That smirk turns into a much more awkward one at the question. ]

Ah? What're ya talkin' bout? [ Crab walk, crab walk. Nothing's weird, nope. ] Everythin's cool. [ Ye, yeah, there you go, the closet! He's just gonna take a hair gel and distract the bro with it. ] Look, they've got one here. Let's style your hair too!

Something about your posture just seems unusual. That's all! [But if Mondo says that he's fine, then everything's fine! Or as he puts it, cool!

Then Ishimaru looks unsure as the gel is put towards him.]

M-my hair as well?! Would that really be alright??

[ Distraction tactic is a success! His lips form a rather evilish smirk then. ]

'Course it is!! Leave it to me!

[ Wait a sec--

He got too excited about messing the bro's incredibly tidy hairdo that he forgot he shouldn't move much and now.

RIP!! RIP RIP!!

He can't hide it anymore. His backside is torn all the way to the end, while the sleeves to show some rips on their edges. Ah...

Whatever. That totally didn't happen.

Before Ishimaru reacts, he decides to grab a generous amount of gel and dumps it on the other's hair, rubbing it to mess it all up. ]

[Ishimaru definitely notices that and winces.]

B-brother! The... the uniform! [He whimpers while Mondo operates on his hair.]

Aah? Ah... We, uh, we can tape that later! It's fine!

[ It's not. ]

Look, let's dress you up, aight? Imma style your hair real cool, so stay still!

[ Sweat dripping sweat dripping. Hair messing hair messing. ]

Tape? No, I am afraid that a uniform cannot be presentable with tape on it!

[He frets, but he stands still.]

...Very well. Do as you wish!

[ Ahh, yes yes, he got it already... Mondo doesn't say it aloud, but he's definitely thinking it and it's probably showing in his face.

Without saying much else, he begins Operation: Bad Boy Look. He runs his fingers on Ishimaru's short strands of hair, trying to bring them down from their straight as hell posture that resembles the way Ishimaru presents himself. He knows that those with big foreheads are said to be the brainy ones, but he'd always thought the friend would look better with them covered. There isn't much he can do with this hair, honestly, it's not long enough for him to build something fancy, so...

Yep.

As he thought, it's better than the usual Hall Monitor getup. Taking a hand mirror out of the closet, he hands it over to the other. ]

There ya go. You look like a total bad boy now.

[ Not really, but Mondo enjoys teasing the bro, if that smirk is an indication of anything. ]

[He stands there, patiently but nervously, as Mondo gets to work on his art. As the hand mirror is help to him, he gazes into it with a furrowed brow.]

? ?

[He blinks and holds a sleeve-covered hand over his hair as he gets use to it.]

It... looks somewhat charming, I believe! Is this really the hair of a delinquent?

[ Well. Technically speaking... ]

Uh. Not really. Your hair's too short to make it more stylish. [ Stylish!! Not delinquent!! Though he really can't deny that he's one, nor does he want to... ] But don'cha think this looks good on ya too? [ The smirk goes wider, as does his arching eyes. ] You gotta show this off to Maizono later. She'll be charmed.

Ah... Yes, it does look quite nice! I thank you, Oowada-kun! [He says with a smile and a nod. And then he perks up a bit at that last part.]

Really? She- she would?

[ Mondo nods firmly. He may be messing with the other teen earlier, but honestly speaking? This looks great on him!! He doesn't see why Maizono won't find it appealing. Well. He can't say the same about the uniform, though... ]

Ou! She'll like it for sure!! We can take a pic and send it to her later, unless you wanna go visit her yourself...

[ Eyebrow waggle. Y'know what he means. ]

[Ishimaru wonders why his eyebrows suddenly moved like that - maybe he has an itch?

But he is quickly flustered by that suggestion.]

A- a picture should be fine! There is no need to bother her at a time like this! [He's also a bit nervous about being Judged for wearing a biker's attire!]

[ It's alright if Ishimaru doesn't get what that means. Because at least he's definitely not calm right now! That's a good sign!! ]

Hmmm~? Aight then. [ Mondo doesn't wait for Ishimaru's consent to snap a picture, subsequently sends it over to Maizono. ] Aaaand sent! Can't wait to hear what she thinks, eh?

A-already?! [He looks around, flustered.] Are you sure that it was alright? Did it come out well?!

Heh. What, you ain't confident with how you look?

[ He grins cheerfully, and opens the sent picture to show it off to Ishimaru. ]

There, whaddya think?
