Hiruma takes entertainment from life however it comes.
He thinks it’s funny that Monta calls his rivals “senpai”. Personally, he marks it as the moment when Monta falls in love with a player. Hiruma doesn’t mind; the people Monta most wants to beat are the ones he’s in love with.
He bares his teeth when he hears Sena using honorifics for Agon. He knows it probably bugs the shit out of that bastard, especially since Deimon beat him. Serves him right.
He looks forward to seeing the look on Juumonji’s face when Hiruma gets around to telling him he’s the next captain. He has a camera just for the occasion.
And he’s going to come see every single one of their games, next year, and drag Yukimitsu with him, exams be damned. If he has to shoot the guy’s mother, well, one act of charity won’t completely ruin his rep.
Actually, he’s lying to himself. He’s going to be right back here, next year. Somehow. He can’t imagine being anywhere else. He’ll let the others think this is the last year, because he’ll take motivation anywhere he can find it. But he knows. He can’t let go.
That’s his strength.
It’s gotten him in a lot of trouble, too.
He tightens his arm around Mamori’s waist and kisses her again and decides he’ll figure out which side this falls under later.
End
*positively fucking sparkles some more* God, I love your Hiruma.
Especially that he’s not sure where not being able to let go of Mamori is going to take him, and he goes for it anyway. *sparkles some more*
(Also: Juumonji the future captain? *dies of laughter* I want to see that reaction.)
*hearts* Thank you sweet! This one… I actually didn’t see how it would end until it did. And then I laughed rather a lot.
*grins* I figure, Juumonji’s /got/ to be the Captain next year. He’s the only one with enough brains. I’m really, /really/ waiting for this scene in the manga, actually.
XD XD XD
Juumonji as captain is both awesome and makes the most sense!
I really liked the insight into the series this piece shows.
*giggling* Thank you! I’m really quite fond of Juumonji. Plus, he /deserves/ it.
He does! *sparkles* He’s one of the characters that has really undergone the most growth in the series.
+ He’d be awesome at it. 😀
nice!! ><
i like it ^^
Thank you! ^_^
Juumonji as the next captain?
Well, it is reasonable but I think it’ll be Sena since he’s the ace n all.
I’m kinda wondering myself on what will Hiruma spend his practice time when he become the 3rd grade student.
Perhaps busy updating his threat book XD
Sena is the definitely heart of the team, but I keep thinking back to that silly little ‘chart’ of everyone’s intelligence. Juumonji was toward the quite smart end and Sena… um, wasn’t. *pets him* It seems more likely, now, that Sena will be captain, but I figure, one way or another, Juumonji will have to be the one who plans.
Pssst, there should be a period after “occasion,” which should in fact only have one “s”! I loved it though- Juumonji would be a great captain, and yay for the Hiruma/Mamori! I liked the characterization of both Monta and Hiruma. 🙂
*frowns at her text* Bugger; thought I’d spellchecked this one. *goes to fix it* Thanks!
*grins* Monta’s crushes on his opponents never fail to amuse me.
