(Ryoto's pov)

Karen: "Yes, darling, what can I do for you?"

I must be dreaming. It's not possible for Karen to call 'darling'. I wouldn't call myself a darling. I don't think even Lala called that.

Wait, *breath in* *breath out*. You can't panic. Rember what Koro-sensei taught you, big boobs are-. I an, panic leads to failure. Analyze the situation calmly.

'Why did you call 'darling'?'

I needed to establish why she does it first.

Karen: "Don't make say it... dummy."

Karen answered bashfully.

Yep, it's not real. Not possible. Karen is not tsundere. Nah ah, I don't believe it.

I must be dreaming.

I pinched myself, but it didn't do anything.

If I'm not enough to wake up, I'll ask soone else.

I walked up to Rio.

Ryoto: "Rio, punch ."

Rio: "Huh!?"

She looked at as if I had lost my brain cells.

Ryoto: "Punch , preferably in the face. I want to test sothin-"

Before I could finish speaking with Rio, I was punched by Karma.

(A/N Before soone asks how he was punched even though Ryoto has spider-sense. It doesn't warn him about people he considers friends. Karma is the closest male friend, so obviously, it didn't work.

Now that I think about it, I don't rember if it did work like this when Harty Osborn was a Green Goblin. It did work like this for Peter's professor. Venom, or symbiote, to be precise, is a special case since he was kind of part of Peter. If I'm wrong, please correct .)

Karma: "Huh, so you still can be punched quite easily. Because of yesterday, I started to think that you were invincible, but it seems you are still human enough to be punched by ."

Karma was saying sothing to , but I was still lying on the ground. I didn't plan to defend myself, so I was sent flying by Karma easily. Besides, he was not the one who I wanted to punch ... It sounds wrong. I should stop now.

I wasn't listening to Karma, but he probably was talking about how easy it was to knock out and boasting about that. Who am I kidding? He definitely was doing that.

I was thinking about my situation. Karasuma and Irina were acting strangely, but it could happen. A bad or good day would make them act strange but Karen. There is sothing fishy going on... and scary at the sa ti.

'Karen, are you feeling alright?'

Karen: "Never better. Why are you asking?"

Happiness could be heard in her voice.

Yeah, either she is sick, or I am tripping, and I didn't take any drugs.

While I was in my thoughts, I stayed on the ground without moving.

Rio: "He isn't moving. Did you hit him too hard?"

Karma: "I don't think so. He was fighting the tentacle guy before, and that guy walked through the wall. He should be able to take it."

Rio: "...It's hard to know if he is unconscious when his eyes are always closed."

Karma: "Let try sothing."

Karma took out a black marker pen and started drawing a crazy mustache on my face. He didn't stop at that as he also drew so small and cute creatures and my test results that were worse than his.

I didn't notice it as I was too busy panicking about Karen.

Karen: "Pft- Hahahahaha, I can't anymore, hahahahaha! I can't believe that you believed it."

'...'

Karen: "What, cat got your tongue. Sorry Ryoto, but I needed this. Sophia increased my stress level to the maximum, and I needed so outlet. Thanks for your help."

'...'

Karen: "Ryoto, hello?"

'...'

Karen: "Shit, did I break him!? I promised myself that I wouldn't do it on my first job!"

Ryoto: "Thank god."

Karen: "Huh??? Why are you happy?"

'Imagine if soone like you started being nice. It's terrifying. You don't know what they're planning or thinking. Will I get into an accident soon? Maybe, possibly, definitely. The point is, I don't know, so I panicked. But to be honest, I prefer the real you over the nice you. It's not like I like to be abused or badmouthed, but you don't feel fake. You always say what you have in mind, and I appreciate it. As you know, I'm bad at reading people, so it helps a lot. If you're happy, you show it. If you're angry, you show it.'

Karen: "..."

'Karen?'

Karen: "..."

Did she leave?

I got up and looked around. Karma was holding in his laugh, and so did Rio. Kaede had a strained smile. Sothing was not right.

Ryoto: "What did you do, Karma?"

Karma: "Why did you ask ? It could be anyone."

Questioning him would be useless, so I just opened my eyes and looked at myself through his eyes.

I saw my face that was massacred, for the lack of a better word.

Ryoto: "Karma, my dear friend. What is the aning of this."

I pointed to my face.

Karma: "You're right. I forgot to write a few things. Sorry, I'll correct my mistake."

He took out his marker once more while smiling evilly.

I would normally show him illusions, but I feel like I would lose if I did that, so I'll need to think about how to take my revenge on him.

(Karen's pov)

I hung up on Ryoto. I didn't know how I should react. It was the first ti soone said that I was fine the way I am. I just tried to pretend to be friendly, sweet, or whatever. I an, Sophia does it the whole ti, so I tried it. I don't have any proof that she does, but I know it.

Ryoto, he changed a bit since we first t, and so did I. I an, not a lot, but still. I stopped badmouthing him. I don't even have an urge to do it anymore. I'm badmouthing others, and it still gives satisfaction but not to Ryoto. Even today, I pretended to be nice, NICE!

I even planned a surprise for his birthday. It's not like . Not like at all. I didn't even pretend my happiness. It was fun, and it felt strange.

(A/N I bought a new phone and autocorrect on it is shit. I need to pay more attention while writin. I am sad.)
