camp vargas! ~spring happening~ 4-3 "now... come on..."

[mandytl]

 

 

Location: Dwarfs’ Mine - Lakeside

Grim: Yo, Magift Club. Get a hit yet?

Epel: Oh. It’s Grim-kun and Yuu. 

This makes.. three!

SPLASH!

Grim: Ohh. Now you’ve got the hang of it. It’s smooth sailing from here-on, huh.

Epel: Ruggie-san taught me all sorts of tricks, but we still haven’t hooked that giant catfish.

Ruggie: Hmm…

Epel-kun, pass me that fish.

Epel: Huh? I don’t mind since it’s club property, but… 

What’re you going to do with it?

Ruggie: Fillet it and use it as bait. 

The giant catfish’s got an appetite for basically anything.

There’s no telling where it’ll show up if all we do is wait...

 So I plan on luring it out right now with some strong-smelling bait. 

Epel: Using our catch to land an even bigger fish…

That’s amazing, Ruggie-san. You really do know everything. 

Ruggie: Shishishi. 

Leave the sweet, sweet praise for after I catch this thing, with any gifts.

Anyway, here. I rigged the cut-bait. Give it a shot.

Epel: Thanks. Okay, here goes!

Plunk…

Epel: Now I’m kinda nervous…

Ruggie: Just hang loose. Now, come on… come on...

Epel: …hm?

……

...whoa?!

Ruggie: Here it comes!

Epel: O-Okay. Looks like something took the bait!

It’s tugging harder at the line than any of the other fish I caught today!

Ruggie: Shishishi. It’s gotta be the giant catfish!

Epel-kun! I’m sure you already know this, but don’t you dare let go!

Epel: I know, but… if this keeps up… it’s gonna pull me straight into the lake!!

Ruggie: Magift Club! What’re you standing around watching for? Hold tight onto Epel-kun so it doesn’t drag him in!

Magift Club Students: Right!!

Grim: They’re landin’ a big catch, Yuu!

> I’ve got the Ghost Camera ready!

> A photo opportunity for sure! 

Ruggie: That sound… it can’t be…

Magift Club Students: R-Ruggie-senpai! A bunch of faeries are headed our way!

Ruggie: I know!

… ugh. The fae need to get with the program already. 

Epel-kun, concentrate on reeling it in! Don’t you let up either, Magift Club! 

I’ll chase the faeries away myself!
