Ishitsumugi no Shou 9-1N

A matter of the heart - 1

[Hero Club room]

Its: Hey, do you mind listening to me?

Tak: Itsuki-chan, what happened?

Its: Onee-chan fainted again last night...

Chi: Eh, again? Why's that?

Its: Because there was a joke on the TV: "The eatery on the other side is so good, the food's going to haunt you!"... [1]

Sek: No, fainting from something like that is a gag in and of itself...

Tou: That habit of Fuu-senpai's seems to be only getting worse. I wonder if she's in good health...

Yuu: It'd be good to cure it if there was a way to do that.

Nat: Yeah... We should cure her.

Sum: Then first of all, we have to test and see what she's okay with, and what's no good.

Wak: I would think that Fuu-san has no aversion to blood. She sees it when cutting up fish all the time.

Anz: But she heard something about blood spraying out while we were on a trip, she fainted on the spot.

Hin: That's true. It's strange how she's okay with seeing blood but not okay with talking about it.

Aya: Fuu-senpai hates ghosts, right?

Gin: Ah, but she's okay with Halloween costumes and stuff.

Tam: Must be because she knows who's inside, right? Which is why she's bad with haunted houses.

Suz: Fuu-san is afraid of ghosts? She seems like the kind of person who'd throw a robber or a molester over her shoulder, it doesn't feel real.

SON: How about a molester ghost?

Kar: As if a ghost would do something like that!

Yum: There is a possibility, if we are talking about the ghost of a molester.

Mit: Can ghosts touch people, though? There shouldn't be a problem if they just pass right through them...

Uta: That's right, Mii-chan. Ghosts are pretty much the same as air, so there's no problemo.

Shi: You think so...? Kusunoki... you too?

Meb: Yeah. If we're talking about getting touched, then zombies would be a whole lot more gross than ghosts.

Fuu: Howdy. Everyone's gathered, I see? What were you talking about?

Son: Right now we were talking about zo-...

Kar: Waah! She lost consciousness immediately!? It's gotten this bad!?

Son: I only said the "zo" part of "zombie", too...

Nat: This... requires immediate treatment.
