Sasaki: Where did you get this?! Akaba: From your computer Sasaki: You hacked into my personal files?! And how did you get the password? Akaba: It’s Musashi.

Sento:

Everyone else who did understand his science mumbo jumbo and incoherent ramblings: *brain dead*

Rest of science squad: Obviously.

Akaba: I know you don't feed chocolate to dogs or cats...

Aoba: And I know it's good to do crop rotation. As well as using the same potato we eat as the seed to grow.

Kiba:

Tsukasa: Damn. Where did you get that from?

Kiba: My husband.

Everyone's reactions?

What exactly was happening for Sento to go on a science-rant that these three understood? Agriculture isn't exactly Sento's area of expertise...

Then again, he was "studying" Ryuuga even though genetics isn't his field of expertise either, let alone when the alien shenanigans Ryuuga has going on is involved

Eine Woche nach dem Sturz von Baschar al-Assad in Syrien bereiten sich internationale Staaten auf den Umgang mit den neuen Machthabern vor. Arabische Staaten sowie Vertreter der Türkei, der USA und der EU sicherten Unterstützung f��r einen friedlichen politischen Übergangsprozess in Syrien zu. An einem Treffen im jordanischen Akaba nahmen der UN-Sondergesandte für Syrien Geir Pedersen teil, der türkische und der französische Außenminister sowie die EU-Außenbeauftragte Kallas und US-Außenminister Blinken. Die neuen syrischen Machthaber waren bei dem Treffen nicht vertreten. [...]

Die in Jordanien vertretenen arabischen Staaten verurteilten in einer Erklärung den israelischen Einmarsch auf syrisches Territorium und forderten Israel auf, seine Streitkräfte aus dem Nachbarland zurückzuziehen. Dieser Verstoß gegen das Völkerrecht sei ein Fall für den UN-Sicherheitsrat. Der Anführer der islamistischen HTS, Ahmed al-Scharaa, bislang bekannt unter seinem Kampfnamen Mohammed al-Dscholani, äußerte sich erstmals zu den israelischen Angriffen auf Syrien. In einem vom syrischen Staatsfernsehen übermittelten Statement heißt es, Israel habe die Präsenz iranischer Kräfte in Syrien als Vorwand für das Eingreifen im Nachbarland genutzt - jetzt gebe es diesen Vorwand nicht mehr. Deswegen wende sich Syrien an die internationale Gemeinschaft - um die Israelis zum Rückzug zu bewegen. Ein weiterer Konflikt sei nicht im Interesse der Syrer.

Yuya's Endurance

Yuya stood in the Leo Corporation’s elevator, on his way up to the top floor where Reiji’s office was. Reiji had sent him a message inviting him to try some endurance training at the Leo Corporation, and the Pendulum summoner was wondering what the young CEO meant by that. Especially since Reiji’s message had stated that he wanted to train Yuya personally. Not only that but Yuya appeared to be the only person who had received such an invitation. None of the other Lancers had been offered endurance training by Reiji.

The elevator stopped on the top floor and Yuya stepped out, looking around. He blinked when he saw the massive screen on the wall. It showed him right where he stood. Clearly Reiji had been watching him.

The CEO stood up from his seat and walked over to Yuya. “Hello again, Sakaki Yuya,” he said. Yuya raised an eyebrow. “I see you’re spying on me…”

A faint blushed crossed Reiji’s cheeks. “I wanted to make sure you got here safely,” he explained. Yuya let the subject drop as he tilted his head. “So, what kind of endurance training did you want to give me?” he asked.

Reiji placed a hand on Yuya’s back and gently guided him back onto the elevator with him. The doors closed and the young CEO pressed a button for a basement. Yuya blinked, having never actually been to the basement in the Leo Corporation. Apparently there were four, and the elevator was headed down to the lowest level.

As the elevator doors opened, Reiji finally spoke. “There is no surveillance down here. I wasn’t sure you’d want this endurance training to be seen by anyone, so I had the cameras disabled for this session.

“Okay, but you never answered my question,” Yuya said. “What kind of endurance training did you want to give me?”

Reiji guided Yuya off the elevator, waiting for the doors to close before unlocking the one door in the little lobby and opening it. He guided Yuya past the door and closed it before finally answering the tomato’s question. “I want to train you with tickling.”

“I—” Yuya blinked. “Huh?”

Reiji turned on the light in the dark room, revealing what appeared to be a tickle dungeon. It was quite small, only about a ten foot cube, with what appeared to be a very comfortable-looking bed against one wall. There were tickle tools all over the walls: feathers of all shapes and sizes, hairbrushes, toothbrushes both manual and electric, paintbrushes, combs, feather dusters, back scratchers, and more.

Yuya blushed brightly, eyes wide. As was the case with all his counterparts, he took ridiculously good care of his skin with baby lotion, and it was just as soft and ticklish as theirs. “O-oh, uh-uhm…!”

“You don’t have to go through with this if you’re not comfortable with it,” Reiji reassured him. “I won’t touch you without your consent.”

“Uh-uhm… d-did you offer to… uh… train anyone else?” Yuya asked, a bit shyly.

“No,” Reiji replied. “You’re the only Lancer with soft, sensitive skin. No one else is as sensitive, so I’m not concerned with them. I’m worried about you being captured and interrogated. With your sensitive skin, any interrogator would likely tickle you for information. I want to make sure you’re able to handle it long enough to be found and rescued. But I will not do it without your consent.”

Yuya considered for a moment. Then, with a blushing face, he said, “Okay. You can… train me.”

Reiji’s heart skipped a beat, and he smiled. He gently guided Yuya to the bed and asked, “Where are you most ticklish?” Yuya blushed brighter and shyly replied, “My feet…”

“Alright, I want you to take off your shoes and socks and sit on the bed,” Reiji said. He waited for Yuya to comply, then sat on the bed at his feet. “I want you to keep your feet as still as possible. I will be tickling you for an hour. If you can keep your feet still and not beg to stop for an hour, the training ends. If you move your feet away, or beg for mercy, the timer resets. Understand?”

Yuya nodded, taking a deep breath. Reiji set a timer on the wall, and looked at Yuya. “Ready?”

“Ready!” Yuya said. Reiji started the timer and began tickling the tomato.

“EEHEEHEEHEEHEE!” Yuya squealed, wiggling his feet. To his credit, he didn’t pull them away at first. “HAHAHAHA! NAHAHAHAHA! EEHEEHEEHEEHEEK! THAHAHAHAHAT TIHIHIHIHIHICKLES!”

“Good, it’s supposed to,” Reiji chuckled. Yuya’s laughter was adorable! The tomato-haired duelist was sitting with his hands on either side of his hips, the blanket on the bed clutched in his fists. “HAHAHAHAHAHA! STOHOHOHOHOP!”

“That’s a timer reset,” Reiji said, resetting the timer with a smile. Yuya squealed, “Dangit!”

Reiji dragged his fingernails up and down Yuya’s soles, enjoying the squeaks and giggles that came out of the tomato’s mouth. Said tomato wiggled his feet frantically, before pulling them away from the tickles. Reiji chuckled, “Another timer reset.”

Yuya squirmed, determined to get through this endurance training. But it was so hard to concentrate. Especially when Reiji reached for the tools on the wall. “WAIHAIHAIHAIT! WAITWAITWAIT! HAHAHAHA!”

“Mm, you know that counts as begging, don’t you?” Reiji said. Yuya squealed in protest, but didn’t actually protest as the CEO reset the timer. “It’s a shame really, you got through ten minutes before blowing it.”

“YOHOHOHOU’RE EHEHEHEHEVIL!” Yuya giggled. Reiji raised an eyebrow. “You might want to wait until after I pick a tool to say that.”

Yuya’s eyes widened as Reiji selected a hairbrush from the wall. “OHO NOHOHO! NOHOHOT THAHAHAT! NONONO! NOHOHOT THE HAIHAIHAIHAIHAIRBRUHUHUHUSH! NOHOHOT RIGHT NOHOHOHOW!”

“Would you prefer I wait until you’ve gotten through, say, fifty minutes before using it?” Reiji asked. “I mean, judging by your reaction, it’ll break you and ruin all your progress if I use it when the timer is about to run out.”

“NOHOHOHO! JUHUHUST NOHOHO!” Yuya squealed. Reiji chuckled. “Oh, and that was another reset by the way.”

Yuya covered his face with his hands, shaking his head as Reiji began tickling his helpless feet with the hairbrush. This was pure torture! It had been years since his feet were tickled, and never to this extreme. But the tomato-haired boy was determined to get through this.

“You know, this is more fun than I was expecting,” Reiji murmured, almost too quietly for Yuya to hear him. Yuya squealed and wiggled his toes frantically, tears streaming from his eyes. “AHAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHAHA! THIHIHIHIHIS IHIHIHIHIS TOHOHOHORTUHUHUHURE! HAHAHAHAHAHA!”

“Perhaps, but it’ll help you build up endurance so that you won’t break if you’re captured and tickled in an interrogation,” Reiji assured him. “Perhaps after a few sessions of endurance training we’ll bump up the timer to two hours. What do you think?”

Yuya didn’t bother trying to speak. He was laughing so hard that his laughter was starting to go silent. If he was going to be honest, he was actually enjoying this endurance training. And he may have even deliberately pulled his foot away from the tickling when the timer reached thirty minutes, intentionally resetting it so that Reiji would tickle him longer.

Reiji smiled as he reset the timer again. “You know, if I didn’t know any better, I would say you like being tickled!” he chuckled.

Yuya blushed brightly, though it was impossible to tell with how red his face was getting from laughter. “STOHOHOHOHOP TEHEHEHEHEHEASING MEHEHEHEHE!”

“Mm, now should that count as begging?” Reiji mused. “I mean, you weren’t begging for mercy…”

Yuya’s foot pulled away from the tickling, though this time it was actually on accident. Nevertheless, Reiji still reached for the timer. “Well, whether it counts as begging or not, this still earns a reset!” he said with a smile.

“HAHAHAHAHA! IHIHIHIT TIHIHIHIHICKLES SOHOHOHOHOHO BAHAHAHAHAD! AHAHAHAHAHA!” Yuya squealed. He couldn’t hold his sitting position much longer, flopping down onto his back on the bed. It really was a very comfortable bed, and if Yuya wasn’t being tickle tortured right now he probably would have fallen asleep very quickly. Reiji had spared no expense making sure that Yuya’s endurance training would be as comfortable as it could possibly be.

Reiji finally stopped using the hairbrush and switched to an electric toothbrush. The sound of the buzzing reached Yuya’s ears a fraction of a second before he felt the bristles between his toes. “OHOHOHOHOHO NOHOHOHOHOHO! HAHAHAHAHAHA! EEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE! THAHAHAHAHAHAT’S TOOHOOHOOHOO MUHUHUHUHUCH! HAHAHAHAHA!”

Reiji chuckled, making sure to get every inch of Yuya’s toes as he reset the timer again for this latest plea. Yuya rolled around on the bed, wiggling his toes frantically as he tried to keep his feet still. He had thought that the hairbrush would be the worst tickle tool. He had been wrong. This electric toothbrush was MUCH worse!

The skin on poor Yuya’s sensitive feet was bright red from the tickle torture he was enduring. But Reiji was making sure not to apply too much pressure. Yuya’s skin was incredibly delicate from how soft it was.

Finally, the timer went off, signaling the end of Yuya’s endurance training. Reiji was a bit disappointed. Truth be told, the endurance training had just been an excuse for Reiji to tickle the tomato. The young CEO loved the sound of Yuya’s laughter, and he really didn’t want to stop tickling the entertainer. But to Reiji’s surprise, Yuya spoke, “W-wait… p-please don’t stop!”

Reiji blinked. “You… don’t want me to stop?” Yuya blushed and shyly shook his head. “I-I like being tickled! It feels really nice.” Reiji took a moment to process this information. Then, he smiled. “Did you reset the timer on purpose a few times?”

Yuya blushed brighter and nodded. “I… didn’t want it to end. I… was planning on pulling away when it got to fifty-nine minutes, but… I didn’t notice the timer get there…”

Reiji chuckled. “Very well! If I’m being honest, this session was never actually about endurance training. I just really wanted to tickle you.”

Yuya giggled. “Well, you don’t have to make up excuses to tickle me anymore. If you want to tickle me, just let me know. I’m always happy to be tickled! It’s so much fun!”

“I’ll keep that in mind next time,” Reiji said with a smile. And so the young CEO continued tickling Yuya, much to both of the boys’ delight.

Characters with glasses are always the best characters in the series. No question about that.

Update: I would add Kunikida to this as I recently started watching the show.
