[It was just another day in the Bastion, helping make preparations for assisting the Ura that were in dire straits. But then, during lunch, Ibuki's cry of disbelief and amusement rang out loud and clear]

[Because she used the monument to create "magical jerky cows", and renovated one of the new buildings on the Bastion into a music venue.]

[... after her initial cry, Ibuki can be found in front of iBooty Shuffle, leaning against one of the chocolate jerky cows and...]

[... just... laughing. That's all she's doing. Laughing]

[ . . .

. . .

Is that him?

Is that really him?

Naegi blinks, staring at the mirror for quite a while... ]

. . . I look like I came out of an anime, actually... like, an actual anime protagonist and everything...

[ Well, that and you also kinda look like a certain spoiler character from earlier in your series, but shhhhhh. It's a secret to everybody. ]

[scary_music]

I see, I see...

Hmmm...

Hopefully not a clueless harem lead protagonist. Those are the worst.

[bulletofhope]

If I ever end up as bad as that kind of protagonist, I want you to just smack me upside the head until I come back to my senses, okay?

[ Because really. That's terrible. ]

[scary_music]

Ibuki will knock the stuffing out of you if that happens! Count on it, Makoto-chan!

It's a promise!

[bulletofhope]

Good! That's the last kind of person I want to be.

[ Read: Hagakure. ]

. . . that said, I wonder if anyone will recognize me now that I have black hair?

[scary_music]

[Ibuki laughs at that]

Ibuki can give you a complete makeover if that's what you're aiming for!

Metal rocker Makoto-chan! Yeah!

[bulletofhope]

. . . maybe next time! Right now I think I'm happy with how this came out.

[ Naegi pauses for a moment and runs a hand through his hair. ]

Really impressed, actually...

[scary_music]

Yeah, yeah, you look really awesome now!

...

Still cute, though!

Awesome cute?

[She laughs again]

[bulletofhope]

[ . . .

Cute? Him?

. . .

Yeah, the only way he can respond is to pull his hoodie up over his head and hide his face right now because WOW so much blushing out of embarrassment, dammit... ]

[scary_music]

[And she starts... playing with his ahoge again...]

[bulletofhope]

[ NO NOT THE AHOGE WHY THIS

Naegi stares at Ibuki through his hoodie, a somewhat flat look on his face. ]

Again?

[scary_music]

Ibuki had to make sure it maintained its fluffiness!

Mission success!

[bulletofhope]

... that's good, at least?

Especially since I wasn't sure if my hair could handle the dye job...

[scary_music]

Oooh...

Was Makoto-chan doubting Ibuki's ability to know Makoto-chan's hair dyeability?

[bulletofhope]

No, my hair's just been really unpredictable...

[ If the 4komas are to be believed, anyway... ]

[scary_music]

Oooh!

What's Makoto-chan's hair going to do next?!

Is his ahoge going to leap off and run away?!

[She starts poking at the ahoge again...]

[bulletofhope]

Either that, or it could try to bite your hand off if you let it get too close.

[ NAEGI NO... ]

[scary_music]

[She makes an over-dramatic sound of horror at that]

Don't bite off Ibuki's hand, Ahoge-chan!

Ibuki needs that!!!

[bulletofhope]

But my ahoge says that your hand is delicious...

[ NAEGI NO, NAEGI STOP... ]

[scary_music]

KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

DON'T EAT IBUKI'S HAAAAAAAAAAAAANDS!!

[bulletofhope]

Can you give my ahoge a good reason not to eat your hands, though?

[ NAEGI... NO... ]

[scary_music]

IBUKI WON'T BE ABLE TO PLAY THE GUITAR WITHOUT HER MUSIC!!!!!!

AND, AND... SHE DEFINITELY WON'T LOOK AS GOOD WITHOUT HANDS, EITHER! TOTAL NEGATIVE POINTS TO HER LOOKS!!!

[bulletofhope]

[ . . .

. . .

. . .

It looks like Naegi's taking a worryingly long time to speak, but in the end, he can't help but laugh a little. ]

I was kidding, Ibuki-san... it's okay! My ahoge won't bite! Really!

[scary_music]

Mmmmmmm...

Ibuki's not sure about that... you might be trying to lure her into a trap, now...

[bulletofhope]

. . . what kind of trap are you expecting me to pull on you, exactly...

[ Ibuki plz... ]
