[ As Rosho's familiar bristles and continues to hiss, Rosho takes it as his queue to keep hiding until the coast his clear. He's still pretty prickly about being laughed at, but he doesn't have the sort of temper he normally would, so he sounds more like he's whining when he yells at Samatoki from behind the stump. ]

It's bones, stupid! 'course I'm gonna be scared! L-like, spirts, 'n ghosts, things like that, I-I really don't like it!

[ Even when the mekurabe disappears Rosho refuses to budge until his kuda-gitsune turns around and begins bounding and leaping all over him, squeaking and chirping as if to persuade Rosho the coast is clear. See? He really did a great job of shooing that skull away!

Rosho pushes up his glasses shakily as he slowly sits up then tries to pull himself back onto the stump. ]

How'd ya even figure out I'm a teacher...?

[ Gosh Rosho, you really wonder?? ]
