#she was a puppy and her name was kitkat and she loved being pet even after her owner said she was still getting used to people

[kelev9]

cane corsos are a dog breed i've genuinely become very interested in but i feel like i can't trust like... any videos on youtube or a bunch of other resources about them because so many (mainly white right wing men) make all these claims about how "aggressive" they are and "how terrible and bad they are" and "you shouldn't own one unless you're prepared for the dog to kill someone!!!" and it's like hey maybe let's not do that

Nerd Field Trip

"Come on, man. Are you really not gonna let me come?" Kazuichi pleaded.

"Of course I'm not allowing you to accompany us. Even after being reminded multiple times, you still did not get permission from either the school or a guardian. Besides," Tanaka grinned," wouldn't you rather accompany the princess if she recovered from her ailment early?"

Kazuichi sprinted toward the school before Tanaka could say another word.

"Let's hope he doesn't bother her too much. Are you two ready?" Tanaka turned toward Naegi and Fujisaki who were fighting each other with stick while making light-saber noises.

Naegi made a sharp thrust and then a horizontal slash. Unfortunately for him, Dark Fujisaki was too quick and dodged both attacks with a speed dash and appeared behind Dwayne 'The Egg' Makoto. Fujisaki's eyes narrowed as 'The Egg' froze in shock.

"Nothing personal, kid," Fujisaki said as the tapped Naegi on the neck. Naegi then fell to the ground, dead.

"Done?" Tanaka knelt down and held out a hand to Naegi.

"Done," Naegi said as he accepted Tanaka's hand.

The three piled into a car and a driver drove them to a train that was rented out by The Academy.

“I can’t believe they rented out a train for us,” Fujisaki said.

“Ha, do not underestimate the connections of an overlord,” Tanaka chuckled.

The ride seemed to last a long time. At some point, Naegi and Fujisaki pulled out their Game Girl™ Advances™™ and swapped Pokemon. Tanaka stared out the window in silence for the remainder of the trip. When the train arrived at the station, Tanaka seemed a little too excited. He stood up a little before the train stopped and almost fell over when it did.

“Uh, *ahem* we have arrived,” Tanaka spat nervously.

After they exited, a suited man greeted them and drove them to their destination, a carnival located on the edge of Tanaka’s hometown. To begin their trip, they headed to a concession stand for lunch. Naegi ordered a biker dog, Fujisaki got a funnel cake, and Tanaka chose a fried KitKat™©™.

“Tanaka, are you sure you don’t want more than that?” Naegi asked before taking a bite of his over sized corn dog.

Tanaka finished his treat and replied, “An overlord doesn’t require much nourishment, besides this is the first dish I dined upon in this establishment.”

“Hey Naegi, I’ll give you a bite of my funnel cake if you give me a bite of your corn puppy,” Fujisaki offered.

“Deal!” Naegi agreed without a second thought while Fujisaki held out a piece of funnel cake.

Naegi delighted in the taste of the powdered dessert. Then he held out his big, thick corn dog to Fujisaki’s face, who took a bite as Naegi almost died. Naegi stayed silent for the rest of the party’s lunch break.

“If you two don’t mind, I think we should start with some games,” Tanaka stated.

“Yeah!” the other two cried in unison.

Tanaka led the two down a route he seemed to know very well. He stopped in front of a shooting game named ‘Crossbow Shoot’.

“Ah, Tanaka, it’s you.You know the rules, my good man,” said the man behind the booth. He had smooth, slicked back, blonde hair and wild carnival attire.

“Of course,” Tanaka took the crossbow and placed the spare bolts in a line on the table. He made a quick pose reminiscent of some kind of vampire or werewolf hunter and pointed the crossbow with an aura of blood lust.

“Scorching Flame: Burst ☆ Shot!” Tanaka shouted as he fired the first bolt straight into the middle of the first target. Tanaka slid his hand across the table as he grabbed the next shot. It whipped to the side and he spun the bolt between his fingers before bringing it back and placing it firmly on the bow. He fired the next shot and pierced the second target in the center.Then, he grabbed the last two bolts and rapid fired at the last two targets, hitting them dead in the center.

“I figured you would at least be a little rusty,” sulked the man behind the counter.

“A true overlord never loses his touch, Sam,” smiled Tanaka triumphantly.

“Hehe, I’ll let you guys play for free if ya’ll want, any friend of Tanaka’s is a friend of mine. Just keep in mind I can’t give ya’ll prizes,” Sam said as he brought out another crossbow and bolts.

“Ah, it’s ,uh, heavier than it looks,” Naegi said as he almost dropped the crossbow.

Naegi was terrible with the crossbow and his first shot nearly hit Sam. His next few shots hit the target but nowhere near the middle. Fujisaki’s shots were a lot more precise even managing to land one next to the center.

“Hehe, you two aren’t so bad yourselves. A few weeks of training under Tanaka and you guys could be pros,” Sam said as he patted Tanaka on the shoulder.

“I hadn’t even thought of teaching my disciples to shoot. Perhaps I can persuade the school to arrange something,” Tanaka ejaculated while he turned to one side.

“Hey, can we play that one next?” Fujisaki pointed to a stand nearby.

Tanaka said his goodbyes and the group walked to the stand.

“Wait, are you sure you want to g-”

“Ah, Tanaka, it’s you. I can’t believe you came all this way to see me~,” a woman with long, wavy brown hair and an eloquent, black dress interrupted Tanaka.

“Amelia, you should never try sneaking up on an overlord. Had I not sensed your presence earlier you would have been diagnosed with dead,” Tanaka warned Amelia with one hand grasping the bandages on his arm.

“Come on, you know you can’t just ignore me if you visit,” Amelia flicked the tip of Tanaka’s hair, “Did you come to play?”

“Of course, a round for each of us,” Tanaka said as he paid Amelia.

She lead them to the stand with a neon light that said ‘Ring Toss’.

“What a cursed game,” Tanaka said after all three of his rings missed the target.

“If you have no skill it ends up being a game of luck,” Amelia said as she tossed three rings at the same time and landed all three perfectly.

“Naegi, you can do this!” Fujisaki cheered as Naegi stepped forward.

“Of course,” Naegi said as he spread out his legs in the best disc thrower pose he could.

Naegi threw all three discs with the power of a Norse God. However, he didn’t make a single shot. Naegi fell, defeated, and groveled on the ground with Tanaka. Fujisaki was up next. They steeled themselves for victory. They knew there was no way the entire group with lose to one game. The first shot flew through the air, hitting the tip of the target. The second shot bounced off the target. As if some kind of God of mercy decided to intervene the third ring actually managed to land around the stick. Naegi and Tanaka lifted Fujisaki up in victory. The three were ecstatic in their ability to score a single time. Fujisaki claimed a lion key chain as their prize and the three continued on.

“Perhaps, we should move on to the next event. I’d like to introduce you two to a few friends of mine,” Tanaka said as he opened a nearby tent.

“Are you sure we can be in here?” Naegi asked worryingly.

“Of course, they would never keep Shooting Star Mikhail from his tamer,” Tanaka said while looking around suspiciously.

The three stood before a large cage with a blanket over it. Tanaka removed the blanket with a dramatic tug. Underneath, lie a big ol’ bear. The bear looked up but did not move an inch.

“A-are you sure this is okay?” Naegi asked as Tanaka unlocked the cage.

“Worrying will inhibit your abilities. Sometimes you must charge head first into what life has to offer,” Tanaka opened the cage and Mikhail ran out.

The bear skidded to a halt a few feet after and then rushed toward Tanaka. Tanaka stood his ground and looked Mikhail directly in the eyes. Mikhail tackled Tanaka and while looming over him, Mikhail sniffed his face. Tanaka clapped twice and Mikhail let him up and ran around the group in a circle. Tanaka stopped Mikhail and pet him to calm him down.

“Mikhail seems to be excited to see us. Perhaps, I should visit more often,” Tanaka said.

“I-I can pet him, right?” Fujisaki asked as they approached the bear.

“Of course, he’s trained to be around people,” Tanaka said as he lead Mikhail toward Fujisaki and Naegi.

Fujisaki held out one hand then Mikhail snorted and rubbed his face against Fujisaki’s. Fujisaki’s cheeks flushed while they returned Mikhail’s affection with pets and pats.

“It looks like he likes you. Naegi, would you like a turn?” Tanaka asked as Naegi stepped back.

“Nah, I’m good,” Naegi said as a giant, anime bead of sweat went down his face. Tanaka guided the bear back to his cage and returned the cage’s cover.

“Next we will visit Mettus. I’m sure he has sensed my presence by now,” Tanaka said as he led the group to another tent.

After they entered the tent, they stood before a desk and a black, office chair facing the opposite direction. The chair rapidly spun around and a man leapt over the group. He spread his arms in the air and spun at the same time. Before landing on the other side of the group, he held out one hand and pushed it against the ground causing him to do one last flip.

Mettus the Mysterious, at your service. Tanaka, I’m glad to see my brightest pupil doing his best. If I may ask, who have you brought to accompany our reunion,” Mettus said as he bowed.

“These are mu closest underclassmen, Naegi and Fujisaki,” Tanaka said as he patted them on the backs.

“I presume you two would also like to learn from me?” Mettus offed while rubbing his hands together causing sparks to fly.

“I’m no-”

“I’m love to!!!” Fujisaki interrupted Naegi and pushed aside his lame, not wanting magic butt.

“Haha, that passion for the dark arts reminds me of Tanaka when he was younger. Please accept this chalk I have imported every year from a secret friend of mine,” Mettus handed both Naegi and Fujisaki a stick of brightly glowing, white chalk.

“Are you sure they’re ready for such high level arts?” Tanaka stammered.

“That’s not for me to decide. They’re your student’s, after all,” Mettus said as he patted Tanaka on the shoulder.

“Ah, that’s right,” Mettus snapped, “Tanaka, I’d like for you to check on Zenon. He has been a bit sluggish recently.”

Tanaka headed deeper into the tent and Fujisaki and Naegi followed behind. They stood before another cage, much smaller than the last and with no cover. Tanaka reached inside and retrieved a bunny from underneath a log. He checked over Zenon closely, however he seemed troubled. He then stuck his head into the cage and sniffed a couple times. He placed the bunny back into the cage and grabbed one of Zenon’s pieces of food. Tanaka put the food in his mouth and chewed slowly. Naegi gagged and Fujisaki looked on in awe.

“I believe they have changed the ingredients in this feed. I will need to do some more tests. Naegi, Fujisaki, I trust you two will be fine on your own for a little bit,” Tanaka led both of them out of the tent and returned to his work.

Naegi and Fujisaki walked back to the games area. The two settled on a ball throw game where you knock down bottles. Fujisaki went first. They managed to hit two out of three of the stacks and chose a small stuffed giraffe as their prize. Naegi could feel it, it was his true time to shine. He threw down 5000 US Yen (the official currency of Amerijapan) and retrieved his first ball. He took a pose that was taught to him by Leon and threw the ball. The ball absolutely obliterated the first group of bottles.Then that one intense song from Naruto started playing in the background. Naegi struck another pose, ready to show off his skills. He threw the second ball and it grazed passed the bottles. Naegi was defeated, again. Fujisaki patted Naegi on the back and Naegi smiled. He grabbed the next ball and threw it with all his strength. The ball straight up wrecked the next group of bottles and then ricochet off the back of the tent and then decimated another group of bottles.

“You did it, Naegi! What are you going to pick?” Fujisaki asked.

“You can have my prize. I have enou- *ahem* I’m not interested in stuffed animals,” Naegi lied.

“Okay, I want that one!” Fujisaki pointed at a large Patamon plushie and after retrieving it they put it on their head.

The two decided to head back to Tanaka. Upon returning, they found Tanaka rubbing Zenon against his face.

“Ah, my companions, Zenon has made a full recovery thanks to some special feed I had. Of course, I will need to do a follow up but for now he’s fine,” Tanaka explained.

The group held a bunny cuddle session before they headed out again.

“Ah, it’s getting late, should we end by riding some rides?” Naegi asked as he pulled Tanaka’s sleeve.

“Of course,” Tanaka replied as he led them onward to a huge roller coaster.

“Our time is limited so you two should ride while I handle our belongings,” Tanaka said as he began collecting their stuff.

Naegi and Fujisaki boarded the roller coaster and had a great time. It was so great, it is indescribable with words and can only be expressed with this picture: [DLC Only CG]

“Wow, Naegi, that was a great ride, wasn’t it?” Fujisaki said as they exited.

“Yeah, it was. It was so good that I would have paid money just to see us on that ride,” Naegi plugged shamelessly.

Upon regrouping, the squad decided Tanaka should ride something. Tanaka chose to to ride the teacups and Naegi volunteered to watch the stuff this time. As Tanaka and Fujisaki were boarding, Naegi took the opportunity to squeeze the Patamon plush.

“So soft,” he said quietly so no one could hear him.

Tanaka and Fujisaki were enjoying their time for the most part however, halfway through, Tanaka’s face changed color and his demeanor changed slightly.

“Tanaka, are you okay?” Fujisaki asked as they joined Naegi.

“Apologies, this device seems to have cursed me with nausea,” Tanaka said as he regained his loose grip on reality.

The carnival was becoming increasingly filled with people so the three decided to leave.
