shinnosuke is visibly struggling between his desire to have absolutely nothing to do with this versus his need to put the mission above all else]

[feminitis]

I'm not saying you have to show up on Wednesday or anything. Just teach me how to play, and I'll play enough for the both of us!

[insincerely]

[...

he sighs.]

Fine. I'm no expert on baseball, but I can teach you the rules. An idiot like you who jumps to the physical for everything should pick it up easily enough.

[feminitis]

Thank you, Lepus!

[feminitis]

—hey, wait a minute! Stop calling me an idiot!!

[insincerely]

You are so stupid. This is going to go so badly.

[feminitis]

[thwacks him on the arm]

No I'm not, and no it isn't! Stop being such a pessimist, you jerk!

[insincerely]

Yeah, yeah.

[he will not stop being a pessimist or a jerk, however.]

You just need to know how to pitch, how to hit a pitch, and how to run laps. As long as you've got those down, no one's going to fault you for not knowing the finer details of baseball.

[feminitis]

Running will be easy enough!

[she runs a lot for training, anyway.]

Let's get down to the school. It's late enough now, I doubt anyone will be there.

[insincerely]

Fine.

[time to shadow portal...]

[feminitis]

[whoo teleportation]

Let's see, what do we need... a ball, and a bat, it sounded like? Are we meant to catch the balls bare-handed when they're hit?

[insincerely]

Whoever's out in the field does—so, the same team as the person throwing the ball to the batter. Also, they use gloves.

[he goes to fetch a ball and a bat.]

If you're the batter hitting the ball, your job is to run around the bases. You'll want to be right on one when someone catches the ball. If not, then you're out.

[she looks around for gloves.]

That shouldn't be too difficult. I'm one of the quickest members of the Shinsengumi, you know! My speed is one of the advantages I have over everyone else.

[and, well.

they're not spared the stardust.

and sei is not spared from reliving one of the most embarrassing moments of her entire life.]

...uh.

[




fuck.]

[.........................

this face because wow the secondhand embarrassment of that?]

[insincerely]

One, I forgot how terrible sex ed is. Two, this explains so much, actually?

[feminitis]

—what the hell does this explain, exactly?!

[insincerely]

[he throws up his hands in a pacifying gesture.]

Oh, things.

[feminitis]

[she grabs for his shirt in an attempt to shake some answers out of him]

[insincerely]

[he swiftly jumps back

and then throws the ball in his hand at her.]

[feminitis]

[she catches it barehanded because her reflexes are actually on point]

Answer me!!

[insincerely]

[he lifts up the bat. pitch the ball, sei.]

... Well, for one, you only let the doctor check you back in Whole Ass. [he makes a bit of a face recalling hannibal. anyway.] And I'll admit my Japanese history isn't really up to par [sometimes you leave the country when you're eight] but I don't remember "feminitis" being a formal condition in the Bakumatsu period?

[one of those things you first just chalk up to being from alternate worlds, but.]

So I'm guessing that's bullshit, huh.

[feminitis]

Yeah, that was a mistake. [vore... anyway, even when she's annoyed, she's incapable of wasting time, and they came out here for a reason. so! she tosses the ball at him, since he's got a bat.

as for the rest - ]

Yes and no? It's not what was happening to me. But there have been some cases, from what Matsumoto-sensei said, of the things he was claiming were happening to me. They were really, really rare, though.

[the manga has a passing mention of one of the troop captains looking up medical journals and finding references to it but i imagine the actual condition was lost in translation.]

[insincerely]

[he swings it! baseball is not exactly his thing but he is a swordsman, and jan is not going to research the correlation between skill with a bat and skill with a sword but i'm saying he hits the ball.]

Well, convenient for you. [...] Guess you have to be a guy to be part of the Shinsengumi, huh?

[feminitis]

the ball hits her smack in the face because i rolled a fUCKING ONE]
