log; maybe one day bruno will be cool

[unenvied]

I

[It's a lovely day—the kind perfect for a cup of coffee and some sweets. Whether you're outside of the cafe, though, or already inside—well, you might notice one (1) weirdo pressed up against the window, peering into the building with a wide-eyed look.]

...

[Nothing to see here, move along—]

II

[Kai and Master seemed to enjoy it, so why not give it a try...?

And that's how Bruno ended up sitting on the edge of a fountain, tossing out pigeon feed. This would be great, except none of the pigeons are approaching.]

Why...!? Why will they not come to me?

[WHY DO ANIMALS HATE HIM.

... In any case, after it becomes clear that this is a failure, he turns to the nearest person and holds out the bag of feed.]

Would you like it? It appears I have no use for it.

III

[Evening falls upon the town, and—]

Thief!

[As a man grasping a book runs by, weaving into an alleyway, Bruno's call rings out in the air—with Bruno in pursuit of said thief. Help him out, Y/N??]

[scooptimistic]

Hm? Oh, yeah, I'm in great shape with the whole lugging heavy equipment around and such. You don't mind if I tackle him, do you?

[ She seems really enthusiastic about this. ]

[unenvied]

[Maya, why.]

I suppose with the situation, we can't help any crude measures...!

[scooptimistic]

I accept being crude for the sake of justice!

[ okay, Maya. ]

[unenvied]

Just do not injure him too badly!

[scooptimistic]

It'll be fine! I know when to hold back.

[ So saying that, she breaks into a sprint.

Sorry, Katsuya Jr., that was definitely a distant grunt of pain once she finds her target. ]

[unenvied]

[HE'S NOT SURE IF THAT INSPIRES CONFIDENCE...

He catches up in a couple of moments. After a moment to catch his breath—]

In my experience, the watchmen are quick to act, so they should hopefully arrive soon. Will you be able to restrain him until then?

[scooptimistic]

Not a problem! I picked up a few restraining holds from my roommate.

[ Thanks, Ulala!! Who knew this would come in handy with book thieves? ]

[unenvied]

[Uh.]

R-Restraining holds...? Why would you be learning such things?

[scooptimistic]

To stop book thieves.

[ see? Works like a charm. ]

[unenvied]

... I would hope that is not something you regularly have to do.

[scooptimistic]

Maybe once or twice.

[ Look, life is never boring in Sumaru. ]
