(Ch. 10) What's He Like?

Sign: Please

Guy: (kaha)

 - Page 176 -

Shuji: (pop)
	He attacked me first, by the way.

Guy: (hack)(hack)

Hiro: I don't really care whose fault it was,
	but it's rather obvious who's stronger.

 - Page 177 -

Shuji: C'mon!

Guy: (eek)

Hiro: Stop picking on the weak.

Shuji: I'm the sort that likes his fights to be settled entirely before he's done.

Guy: (eek)

Shuji: Or would YOU like to try your hand?

Hiro: Forget about that.
	It's rather obvious who's stronger.

 - Page 178 -

Shuji: What confidence.

Hiro: I guess.

Shuji: Baseball players?

Noda: Fresh from the oven.

Shuji: Is the baseball team allowed to start fights?

Hiro: I was under the impression that no club, baseball or tea ceremony, is allowed to start fights.

Noda: By the way, I have a habit of not watching while I swing wildly.

 - Page 179 -

Shuji: (heh...)
	That's just wasted effort.
	As long as Tachibana Hideo is around, you'll never reach the Koshien.

Hiro: No, it won't be wasted effort.
	Even if we don't make it to the Koshien.

Shuji: Hyah.
	Hyah.
	Hyah.

Noda: One of Hideo's old friends...?
	Maybe he was different as a kid,
	but that's a guy I wouldn't want to know personally.

Guys: She's cute.
	(dehe)

Kine: Excuse me, gentlemen, excuse me.
	Don't waste time chasing fruitless dreams.
	Unfortunately for you, some things have a pre-ordained balance.

Guy: What's with that fancy towel?

Kine: Huh?
	Oh,
	this?
	It's Koga-chan's towel.

Guy: You STOLE it?!

Kine: When I was covered with sweat, taking a break,
	she came by and kindly handed it to me.
	(ha ha)
	It smells so nice.

 - Page 183 -

Kine: Here, Koga.
	Thanks for the towel.

Haruka: Huh?
	You mean, it isn't yours?

Kine: Huh?

Haruka: Mito-san asked me to give it to you, so I figured it must be yours...

Kine: Mito...?

Guys: I get it.
	This is the pre-ordained balance.
	Waaa!

Hiro: What's he like?

Haruka: As soon as he graduated high school, he moved out to live by himself and went to college,
	but overall he tends to wander around and be lazy, inside the country and out.
	It took him eight years to graduate...

Hiro: What's his baseball experience?

Haruka: Hmmm...
	I don't really know him that well.
	We're 12 years apart, and he rarely comes back home.

 - Page 186 -

Hiro: Sounds like a character setup
	that allows plenty of possibilities.

Haruka: Mm-hm.

Hiro: Yo.
	Whewy.
	Man, it's hot.

Haruka: Oh,
	use this.

Noda: Hiro,
	roadwork!

Hiro: Coming.

Haruka: Have a good time.

Hiro: Huff.
	Huff.

Hiro: (snif)(snif)(snif)

Kine: What are you doing?

Hiro: Huh?
	Oh, Koga's towel.
	It smells so nice.
	You jealous?  Huh?

Kine: Spill the beans.
	Who asked you to give him that one?

Haruka: Huh?

Sign: Tachibana

Hikari: (clank)(clank)(clank)
	Hide-chan.
	Huh?
	Not home.

Sign: Go for the KOSHIEN!
	Tachibana Hideo
