( he doesn't even know who she is?? what did he do?? he's about to ask, but he receives an answer... which, really, doesn't answer anything! kyoto? what does he have to do with kyoto when he's currently abroad? )
( true, and he will come to realize, respect, and fear this )
oh ohhhhhhh haha... right. i did...
( "moderation" was a skill that had taken him more time to learn than a lot of far more complex cursed techniques. with where he'd been in his training post-rika at the time of the event last year... it'd essentially been the equivalent of trying to water one's lawn with a fire engine.
it had been a bit of a massacre. he's still embarrassed. )
i'm sorry... i had no idea it would impact someone's plans like this umm well, i would promise to do my best to make it up to you, but i'm kind of broke...
[ why is he acting like that?? like he FORGOT that he completely wiped out the other school? what the hell is wrong with him ]
Ugh. I guess it's fine? You couldn't have known I was going to be around now but if I was there last year, I would've stopped you from demolishing the Kyoto students!!
[ no, she wouldn't have.
besides, everything she's heard from her senpais make her want to steer clear of rika. ]
So is that a promise or not? Breaking a promise will result in fifteen years of bad luck! That's worse than breaking a mirror.
Ah. Wait, senpai. Why are you broke? Aren't you overseas? Don't you need money for that kind of stuff??

his aura of faint patheticness saves him yet again
( it's not necessarily that he had forgotten; he just hadn't linked the goodwill event with one of his shiny new kouhai being denied a predestined trip to kyoto. it is that time of year, isn't it? )
if you'd been there to tell me that it would ruin your future travel plans, I definitely would have tried to tone it down a notch but, then again if you were there last year, you could have participated in the event and gone to kyoto then and there, haha
( i actually can't remember if the previous year's event had been held in kyoto but i'm pretty sure it was and i'm not looking it up in the manga to make sure )
well, i certainly can't afford any more of that...
( one can almost imagine the pained, sardonic laugh... )
i am, but technically i'm on school business... so they paid for everything, but i'm not exactly free to go sightseeing me being broke doesn't really have anything to do with me traveling... you can ask maki, toge, or panda about that!
( maybe it would encourage them to cook for the first-years (: wouldn't that be cute )
[ don't mind me crying over "shiny new kouhai" like she's a pokemon ]
If I was there it would've been a completely different story, you're right! Maki-san would probably have bonked my head if I had asked you to tone it down, but on the other hand you're also right - I would've had the chance to see Kyoto in all its glory regardless!
In the end, I guess I only have my parents to blame for conceiving me a year later.
In any case, did you have a chance to explore Kyoto while you guys were there?
[ i'm not going back to read either but i'm p sure it was in kyoto and if not... TOO BAD IT WAS!! we say so!
anyway, a deep sigh can be heard all the way from tokyo from... wherever he is. not to mention, her parents are also nowhere to be found. who knows where they are? only gege does and only time will tell if he'll even... say anything about them... ]
That's so boring... My condolences. [ to your free time ] Ah, you mean you want me to ask the second-year senpais to take me sightseeing??
( listen it's exciting he's never had a non-megumi underclassman before...
and megumi would never text him about something like this. )
yeah, haha... that's probably true
yes, we had some time to explore, but the kyoto principal asked their students to accompany us, so... as you can imagine, things were intense? i had to enlist toge and panda to help me run interference for maki and her sister which was difficult because toudou was being very persistent about questions... and no one could agree on where to go so maybe it's best that you weren't there last year... it was a strange trip
( yes, he can hear her from... somewhere in africa! but nowhere specific because gege didn't want to go to that much effort in research. )
yes, being a jujutsu sorcerer unfortunately isn't great on either your free time or your vacation opportunities it seems, haha... but i'm sure we can manage one good trip to kyoto one day
hm maybe! they will certainly know where all the good places to eat are!

um... how exactly did I prevent that?

Panda-senpai and Maki-san said you singlehandedly took out all of the Kyoto students last year.
And because of that we won, so we had to host this year's event!!!
