Main Quest: Part Daily Life

Chapter 10: Cows, Tests, and Poison, oh fun!

To be fair, the day had started off normally enough. In fact, Tsuna once again got up early even though there was no school ― like always ― and everything stayed the same until Reborn made him do his homework.

(Daily Quest Alert!

[Quest: Survive Puzzling Over Homework]

Don't know how to do your homework? Well, good luck figuring it out as your tutor tries his best to 'help'!

Completion Reward: +100 EXP, +5 REP with Reborn, +1 INT

[Y/N])

After that, though, was the start of the crazy. Of course, the resulting pandemonium could not have resulted without the help of some grapes and a cow ...

BANG!

"Long time no see, Reborn! It's me, Lambo!"

"..."

Tsuna ... Okay, yeah, Tsuna stared and gaped. And it wasn't because Reborn had completely ignored the kid in a cow onesie who had burst into his room, either.

SMACK!

"Gyupah! ... I, Lambo-san, five years old, from Italy, a hitman from the Bovino Famiglia, tripped! Favourite foods are grapes and candies and I, Lambo-san, who met Reborn at a bar, just tripped!"

"..."

Observe!

{Bovino Lambo; LV 1}

No, Tsuna had a perfectly normal reason for looking as idiotic as he probably did. After all, this was possibly the very first time he had ever seen someone with a lower level than his own! Sure, it may be a toddler who looked completely harmless and quite cute, but, well, Reborn looked even cuter and he was possibly the deadliest thing in the country right now ― Hibari Kyouya included.

"Remember this formula ..."

Just for a short moment, Tsuna quietly relished in the fact that he wasn't completely hopeless. He knew he had been slowly getting better with his own power and determination, but to actually see it spelled out in front of him so bluntly...

It ... It felt amazing.

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

"GYUPAHAHAHA! DIE REBORN!"

And then the cute child pulled out a hand grenade from his afro-like hair (which, what? Was his hair some kind of Inventory?) and threw it at Reborn.

Which, wow. Tsuna immediately felt the beginnings of a headache build up in his head.

"DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIEEEE REBORNNNN―"

Because really, just how was Lambo and his crazy grenades only level one again?!

Main Quest Alert!

[Quest: Child-rearing with Grapes and Lightening]

Good job! He's only a small spark now, but he's now yours forever! You've brought your Lightening into your family!

Completion Awarded: +1800 EXP

You have slept in your bed! HP and FP are fully restored.

"Huh."

Even though he experienced it so many times already, Tsuna still felt impressed whenever he woke up.

You have slept in your bed! HP and FP are fully restored.

After all, despite the fun fiasco that was Lambo, who was now staying with them, Tsuna woke up feeling quite refreshed. Which was a really big surprise, because one, the sun had barely gone up and two, hiding under his blankets in an attempt to avoid grenades didn't seem to bode well for his sleep. But here Tsuna was, ready and alert despite it being barely five o'clock in the morning.

You have slept in your bed! HP and FP are fully restored.

"I got it, I got it, I'm getting up," Tsuna muttered to himself softly as he subtly batted away the annoying window and heaved himself out of his heavenly bed. Geez, it should be illegal to be forced away from his amazing bed like this.

Then again, this was a Mafia game. The things Tsuna would have to do in the future were probably miles away from being legal ...

Padding softly into his washroom and quickly washing up, Tsuna used his Crossdress skill before carefully making his way out of his room and hurrying to the kitchen. Like always, his dear mother turned around from her station at the sink to greet him with a big smile.

"Tsu-chan! Good morning!"

Wait ...

{Sawada Nana; LV 29}

"... Good morning, Mama," Tsuna greeted back warmly after he spent a few seconds blinking in surprise. The window that had always followed his mother had changed, and, wow. When did his mother level up? And while they were on that thought, how was his sweet, sweet mother so much stronger than Gokudera and his bombs?

... Then again, there was that time where Nana had replaced their whole oven after Tsuna told her about the weird guy who kept following him home ... She had said that her latest baked goods didn't turn out that well, but when had Nana ever baked something bad ...? Her smile had also been extremely bright that day ...

+1 INT!

Aha, yeah, no. Tsuna banished those thoughts from his mind, lest he became scared of his mother's godly homemade treats. Instead, he blinked slowly at the already dirty counter.

"What are we making today?"

"Hmm," Nana hummed lightly before she turned around with what seemed to be his breakfast in her hands. Which. What? Tsuna blinked again in confusion. Did he miss something?

"I already made your breakfast and lunch today because I wanted to ask if you could go out to the market for me before school?" Nana revealed with a pleading look and an apologetic shrug. "I need the groceries for dinner, and the sale starts and ends in the morning! But I have to register Lambo today into his new elementary school ..."

Daily Quest Alert!

Tsuna squeaked a bit at the blue window that had suddenly popped up an inch from his face. Thankfully, his mother didn't seem to find his actions abnormal as she patiently waited for his response. Of course, that was when the next window decided to pop up as well.

[Quest: Food Runs]

Buy soba noodles, fresh salmon, and some black pepper from the Marketplace! Bring it back to Nana before school starts so she could use the ingredients to make dinner later.

Completion Rewards: +200 EXP, +30 REP with Sawada Nana

Completion Failure: -100 REP with Sawada Nana

[Y/N]

Whoa, it had been a while since he had seen this particular quest. Tsuna stamped down the urge to beam.

"Of course, Mama," Tsuna nodded sweetly as he accepted the quest. Not like he would have ever refused. After all, it was so hard to increase his reputation with his mother, and quests as easy as this one were so rare! "I can do that."

Quest Accepted!

"Great!" Nana beamed as she handed him a roll of bills. She then ushered him to the table where his delicious breakfast lay waiting. "Eat your breakfast then and hurry, Tsu-chan! I don't want you to be late just because of my errand!"

Obediently, Tsuna inhaled his absolutely amazing breakfast before setting out with a light jog. It would be terrible if he really was late to school after getting up three hours before it started. Even Tsuna wasn't that pathetic!

"Hmm ... Soba noodles ... Salmon ... Black pepper ..."

Quickly buying everything he had needed to complete the quest, Tsuna hesitated slightly before grabbing a bag of coffee candies as well. He would have also grabbed some grape candies for Lambo, except he had enough grape-flavored jello at home (from defeating the slimes) to last a lifetime. The coffee-flavored candy in his house also kept running out for some reason, anyway.

After making his purchase and staying carefully away from the stalls of the adults that didn't like him, Tsuna rushed home (+1 AGI!) and tried his best not to jostle the food. This time, the boy went out prepared and when he finally got to his front door, Tsuna dug for his keys and opened it.

"Mama, I'm home!"

"Tsu-chan!" Nana cried, delighted as she walked over and gratefully took the groceries from him. "Wow, you were so quick, thank you sweetie!"

Quest Completed!

[Quest: Food Runs]

You did Nana's shopping for her before school started!

Completion Awarded: +200 EXP, +30 REP with Sawada Nana

Bonus Award: +200 EXP (+100 EXP for every hour before noon), +20 REP with Sawada Nana (+10 REP for every hour before noon)

Tsuna beamed happily at the window before he gave his mother a bright smile. "No problem, Mama! I can do your shopping for you anytime!"

As Nana immediately began to coo over him and his vow, Tsuna fought down the urge to smile wryly. He wasn't lying. After all, Tsuna really wanted his REP with his mother to go up.

(Maybe she would love him more then?)

Tsuna huffed as he stretched, feeling the strain of his early jog as he walked into the school. Like always, he was early once more, although not as absurdly early as he was only a few days before. After all, his homework was finished (courtesy of Reborn's many diverse tactics) so there really wouldn't be anything else he could occupy himself with...

"Yo, Tsuna!"

With a blink, Tsuna turned around just in time to see Yamamoto jog up to him.

"Oh, Yamamoto-kun, g-good morning!"

"You too, Tsuna! And ... Eh?" Yamamoto leaned onto him before peering at his face in concern. "Are you okay, Tsuna? You look kind of tired."

Well. Lambo's arrival had made him incredibly tired the day before, but as always he had been completely fine this morning. Did he really look that fatigued?

"I'm fine, Yama-Yamamoto-kun," Tsuna smiled at his friend brightly, ignoring the window about Dazzling Rays that had just popped up. Why was that skill levelling up so much anyway? Geez. "I just took an early mor-morning jog."

"..."

"... Yamamoto-kun?"

"Huh? Oh," for some reason, Yamamoto had turned a bit red. Maybe Yamamoto was the one who was sick? Tsuna frowned. It would be just like his friend to worry about him when he himself was sick ... "You went jogging? Waaah, tell me next time beforehand, ne Tsuna? I want to go jogging with you too!"

"O-Okay," Tsuna easily agreed with his friend before giving him a worried glance. "B-But ... are you okay, Ya-Yamamoto-kun?"

"..." Yamamoto gave him a bright grin, the light flush on his cheeks fading away to his more normal pallor. "Of course, Tsuna! You saved me, remember? So I've never been better!"

The taller boy swung his good arm over Tsuna's shoulder before humming, successfully diverting Tsuna's attention and away from his probably red face. "Anyway, did you get the math lesson we had yesterday ...? The one about the sine law ...?"

"Huh?" Tsuna blinked even as he resigned himself in being Yamamoto's personal armrest. "Oh, I didn't at first, but Reborn tried tutoring me that lesson yesterday ... Maybe we can go over it together before class starts?"

"Really? Thanks Tsuna!" Yamamomto beamed. Tsuna reflexively smiled back.

It was a nice morning.

(And it would have been a relaxing one too if the countless Observe windows had stopped popping up.

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

...

But since they didn't, Tsuna spent his morning trying not to cry. What was he going to have to deal with this time?)

Tsuna opened the big bento box he shared with Reborn before humming in pure delight. His mother really outdone herself, because wow! How could bento boxes look like such pretty works of art? Nana was a genius and Tsuna couldn't wait until he was good enough to learn how to make something like this ...

"So, to satisfy Gokudera, I decided to hold the 'Family Entrance Test' for Yamamoto."

"?!"

Almost choking on his slice of tuna fish, Tsuna all but scrambled for his trusty water bottle. After gulping down more than half of his water to clear his throat, the brunet turned wide and disbelieving eyes onto the tiny baby.

The tiny baby ... who just seemed terribly amused. With a big scowl, Tsuna looked away as he tried to barter for his friend's freedom.

"No way! Ya-Yamamoto-kun is my friend, don't just d-decide something like that on your own!"

After all, Yamamoto liked baseball and didn't have anything to do with the Mafia world! It wouldn't be fair at all if Tsuna had to drag the taller teen in his own mess. Yamamoto didn't need something like that right now, especially with his unstable mentality ...

"He's already a target just by knowing you," Reborn scoffed lightly, sounding suddenly serious as he floated aimlessly in the school pool. "Are you going to damn him further by not teaching him how to protect himself?"

... Wait. What?

"I ..." Tsuna didn't know what to say. According to the window that had recently popped up, it was true that Yamamoto had already joined his primary party, whatever that had meant. Maybe it meant his Mafia game? That would be really bad since Tsuna had no idea how to get him out...

"Anyway," Reborn continued flippantly, voice nonplussed. "I already had Gokudera call Yamamoto out already. They should be starting soon."

...

"What?!" Tsuna blanched as he jerked up. Noooo, he didn't even have time to mentally prepare himself yet!

"Better get going," the baby smirked. Tsuna took a mental note to not give the insufferable baby hitman any of his coffee candy before he packed up the rest of his lunch and rushed off to try and find his friends. Because seriously, Tsuna didn't jump off a roof just for Yamamoto to die by dynamite.

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

...

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

...

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

Observe sensed a―

Thankfully, finding his friends proved easier than he had originally thought. All Tsuna had to do was follow the windows that popped up more and more as he rushed down the halls. And since Hibari was supposedly not on his lunch break yet, hopefully he wouldn't run into the demonic prefect...

"Ha ha, you're Gokudera, right? Um ..."

Tsuna rushed around the corner and let out a harsh sigh of relief when he finally found the two people he was looking for. Bingo!

+1 LUK!

"Hey!"

Gokudera immediately snapped to attention and stopped waving around his dynamite in Yamamoto's face. The confused taller boy also looked up with a bright smile. "Yo, Tsuna! And ― oh. Is that your little brother?"

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

Shuddering a bit as something dropped soundlessly onto his head, Tsuna tried to valiantly bleach that idea from his mind. Reborn, the demon-in-disguise, becoming his little brother? Oh god, the horror.

"Ciaossu," Reborn beamed from his seat on top of Tsuna's fluffy hair, looking completely composed even though Tsuna was still trying to delete that particular thought. "I'm not his little brother. I'm the Vongola Family's top hitman."

"..."

And, yup, Tsuna was speechless once more. Completely speechless, because again, what kind of greeting was that?

No, seriously. What happened to the laws of Omertà and whatnot? All of those Mafia movies lied!

"Huh?" Yamamoto's eyes widened in shock before ... sharpening? Without further ado, the tall teen broke into loud but genuine laughter. "Ha ha ha! I see! Well, I apologize. It must have been troublesome to be a hitman at such a young age!"

Andddd. Of course Yamamoto would just think it was a game. Of course.

Then again, this literally was a game for Tsuna.

"The Tenth head of the Mafia family is Tsuna," Reborn continued his explanation with an almost angelic smile. With a beaming smile, the baby patted Tsuna's forehead. "I'm here to tutor him."

"Tsuna? Oh, that's a good choice!" Yamamoto beamed back, brown eyes serious even as he smiled a sharp grin. "Hey, can I join Tsuna's family too? This Mafia game sounds super interesting!"

"Of course," Reborn replied victoriously before Tsuna could process Yamamoto's words. Once he did, however ... Tsuna barely managed to keep his jaw from dropping open. Was the taller boy crazy?! Why was he willingly stepping into something as dangerous as this?

"Yamamoto-kun―"

"Tch," Gokudera snarled, cutting Tsuna off as his green eyes flashed. "You can't join Tenth's family just like that, baseball idiot!"

'Baseball idiot'. Tsuna winced while poor Yamamoto's eyes darkened. Why was Gokudera bringing up baseball now? Did Gokudera have no tact, for talking about baseball so soon after the tallest almost committed suicide because of it?

"Gokudera's right," Reborn's voice cut through, still cheeky despite the underlying steel gracing the words. Gokudera seemed to catch it as he immediately rocked back in silence. "First, you'll have to pass the Family Entrance Test. If you can't pass the test, then you can't enter the family."

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

Reborn jumped off of Tsuna's head with a twirl. "And if you don't pass, you'll die."

Tsuna felt his face pale as he chanced a worried glance at Yamamoto. "Reborn!"

"Ha ha," Yamamoto laughed dryly as he stood up to subtly block Tsuna from the baby's view. His knuckles remained white as he clutched his baseball bag. "Wow, what a realistic game! Okay then, what's the test going to be?"

"Yamamoto-kun ..." Tsuna despaired. If he thought that it was so realistic, why did Yamamoto still want to go through the test? Was Tsuna the only one with any common sense here?

"Oh, don't worry. The test is simple," Reborn started with a cute smile, a complete juxtaposition to the twin guns he had suddenly whipped out. Tsuna bit down a whimper. "Just dodge the attacks."

Main Quest Alert!

[Quest: Judgment]

Hey hey, the judge is now here to play. Is your Rain the right one? Convince the others that he is the best rainy stray you could ever find!

Completion Awarded: +2000 EXP

Completion Failure: NONE

[Y/N]

Tsuna grudgingly accepted the quest (not like he could have said no) before rushing to place himself in front of Yamamoto. Unlike Gokudera, Yamamoto was not trained in the arts of fighting at all. Tsuna couldn't let his friend get hurt again, not when the last injury Yamamoto had became the catalyst of his suicide attempt!

"W-Wait, Reborn!" Tsuna put on his best pleading face ('Moe''s Level has risen by 1!) before staring down his baby tutor. After all, the quest never said anything about fighting! All Tsuna had to do was convince the baby hitman that Yamamoto was amazing, which really wasn't too hard to do.

"You can't try to se-seriously kill Yamamoto-kun! I-I won't let you do-do something like that! Yamamoto doesn't have to pass a test, he-he's already my good friend!"

A small pause. And then ...

+10 REP with Yamamoto Takeshi!

"Maaa maaa Tsuna," the boy in question swung a heavy arm over Tsuna's shoulder as Gokudera fumed quietly to the side. Yamamoto smiled at him, eyes feverishly bright. "It's cool! Don't worry about me, I'll do my best!"

"Good, what eagerness," Reborn hummed in a tone that sounded almost like approval. Though for Tsuna or Yamamoto, the brunet didn't know. "You should join in as well, Tsuna. You are the boss. Give us an example."

"..."

Really, why couldn't this game be a cooking game?

Or better yet ...

"Why can't I be an NPC?!" Tsuna screamed hoarsely as both Gokudera and Lambo (Ten Years Later Lambo, who was decidedly more deadly) joined in. At least NPCs couldn't die!

Main Quest Alert!

[Quest: Judgment]

Yay, yay, your Rain is now here to stay! Judgment is complete, good job!

Completion Awarded: +2000 EXP

Tsuna wheezed slightly as his friend gently set him on the ground. Thankfully, it wasn't damaged too badly despite the countless explosions that had gone off. At least Hibari wouldn't kill them.

On the other hand, wow. It was officially a miracle; they somehow both survived.

Almost immediately after that realization, a new window popped up. Before Tsuna even managed to read it, another followed the first with a burst of music as everything faded away to a startling white.

Level Up!

Congratulations! You are now Level 5!

You have 5 new skill points to assign!

Tsuna blinked, feeling a bit surprised. How did he manage to level up so quickly? Then again, he did finish two Main Quests and they always paid well ... Opening his Status, Tsuna grinned slightly as he stared at his current Stats.

Sawada Tsunayoshi is a student of Namimori Middle School. She is often bullied and is nicknamed 'No-Good Tsuna' because of her sheer clumsiness. However, Tsuna has a interesting future in store for her ...

(CLOSE)

Once again, his Strength and Dexterity were his lowest stats. He could put two points in each, and then maybe another one in Intelligence? Tsuna did like being smart, so yeah, that sounded about right. Quickly adding the points, Tsuna checked his updated Status again before smiling in triumph.

(CLOSE)

Just like his meeting with Lambo, his Stats proved how slowly but surely, Tsuna was becoming stronger! And it was with that happy thought that Tsuna closed the window, beaming even as the next annoying one popped up after it.

Level Up Complete! You need 3950 EXP to reach Level 6!

... Saving Progress ...

Tsuna's white surrounding faded to black before finally going back to normal. With a blink, Tsuna realized that he was still seated on the ground, Yamamoto crouched down and panting lightly beside him. Rolling his shoulders, Tsuna pushed himself to his feet with a tired sigh.

"Hmm," Reborn hopped on Tsuna's head once more as he gave Yamamoto an appraising look. "You've passed the test. Welcome to the family."

"Haha, thanks little guy!" Yamamoto beamed, friendly smile still in place even after he had somehow managed to dodge a gazillion things that could kill them with Tsuna (AKA luggage) in tow. Tsuna took a moment to envy Yamamoto's thought process and chill.

"Hey," Gokudera moved forward to grab Yamamoto's collar and give him an intense stare. "... Good job."

"..." Bemused, Tsuna watched as Yamamoto somehow managed to rile Gokudera up. Surely the taller boy was doing that on purpose? After all, Yamamoto easily befriended anybody in school...

A few seconds later, Gokudera and Yamamoto dissolved into petty name-calling as they argued over the spot of the Right-Hand Man, and it was only the screech of the bell that had Yamamoto scrambling for his baseball bag. Tsuna helped him pat off the dirt that had clung to his once-pristine outfit, calmly ignoring the frothing Gokudera as he did so. It was Tsuna's fault the taller boy got so dirty, after all.

"Thanks Tsuna!" Yamamoto gave him a bright smile as he got ready to leave, before he cocked his head to the side in thought. "But man, bomb toys these days seem so real. They're really cool, huh?"

"Er ..." Tsuna gaped. Did Yamamoto seriously still think everything that had happened was a game?

Though, again, technically it was.

...

Huh. Maybe Yamamoto was more fit to play the Mafia game than Tsuna was.

Uh.

Observe sensed a dangerous presence!

Sometimes, the Skill was only telling him the obvious. Tsuna whimpered softly and stayed far, far away from the smoking can of 'juice' and the poor dead bird. Why were even pretty ladies trying to murder him now?! Then again, her beauty had almost been otherworldly and her green eyes were strangely familiar ...

... In fact, they had looked just like Gokudera's who had also tried killing him once upon a time.

+1 INT!

...

Of course. That meant that the lady was probably a seasoned killer. So, now Tsuna had hitmen (hitwomen?) after him as well? Was the 'Mafia' plot finally moving forward?

Or was it just because of Reborn?

...

Somehow Tsuna bet on the latter, the evil baby.

It was definitely Reborn's fault.

Tsuna wheezed lightly in his white Menu space as he closed the windows that had popped up during his fight with the woman who had thrown him the can of poisonous soda. Just like he had thought, the familiar-looking woman was Gokudera's half sister, the deadly Bianchi.

Main Quest Alert!

[Quest: To Fight Against Poison]

You've neutralized Bianchi, wow! Be careful with your meals for the next few days though, because you might never know what could happen...

Completion Awarded: +2300 EXP

Tsuna sighed in quiet relief as he read that particular window. The fight had been terrifying, and Tsuna was never going to see pizzas under the same light ever again. No wonder Gokudera seemed afraid of certain types of food ...

(For some reason, like Lambo, Bianchi decided to stay at their house as well. Tsuna ... didn't know how to feel about that, with his almost killer eating breakfast with him everyday. His mother was ecstatic though with a new female friend, so there was that. Tsuna could suck it up if it meant his mother smiled like that every single day.

On the other hand, just how many guest bedrooms did their house have anyway? Tsuna seriously did not remember Lambo's guest room, and he was pretty sure he wouldn't forget any room in their house with cow print wallpaper. Bianchi's was also a surprise, because really, there was a laboratory in there!

...

Tsuna was pretty sure the rooms were multiplying. But hmm.

Maybe it was just a game thing?)

... Loading ...

Additional Special Event

"Hey, Lambo!" A quiet sniffle was his only reply.

With an exasperated sigh, Tsuna rushed over to the sulking baby before dropping a handful of grape jellies onto the kid's lap. Lambo blinked twice in surprise as Tsuna gave him a bright smile.

"I'm sorry I don't have grape candies right now, but try these instead," Tsuna encouraged as he leaned forward in glee and anticipation. Finally, a chance to get rid of the stack of jelly snacks in his room ...!

"... Bwahahaha, only because my servant asked so nicely!" Perking up slightly, Lambo pried open the top and lifted the jelly to his mouth before ...

"!"

+100 REP with Bovino Lambo!

+100 REP with―

Tsuna gaped as the windows began piling up. Did ... Did he break the game?

"Ah..."

Tsuna sighed in relief as he dived straight into his soft bed. Finally! Tsuna was finally free to relax! It had been a crazy day and honestly, he felt pooped. With a yawn, Tsuna reached over to the jar full of the new coffee candies he had bought for a quick energy booster and a snack...

...

... except the jar was empty.

Tsuna blinked before his jaw dropped. He felt completely bewildered as he eyed the once-full candy jar. Because whoa. What? Tsuna knew he had just refilled it that morning ...

"Better buy some more, No-Good Tsuna," a squeaky voice chirped cheerily. Turning around, Tsuna made a sound of outrage as he stared at the familiar candy wrapper in Reborn's hands.

"Reborn!"

So the baby hitman was the one stealing all of his coffee candy!

AN: Shorter and filler-ish chapter this time! To be honest, this chapter was only here to wrap up Yamamoto's introduction and to introduce Lambo and Bianchi, and also the different relationships. It would have came out a lot sooner if I hadn't got buried in school work and gotten sick so many times, ORZ. Sorry its so boring! I had been thinking about skipping all the way to the exciting Mukuro's arc, but I need to introduce everyone first before that...

Guest: LMAO Tsuna is very shippable, isn't he? Yes, poor him!

Marie: Thank you very much! It went okay, aha. Could have been better, but, welp. That's life.

Morgan: Aha Mother's Intuition, right? It's probably as strong as Tsuna's Hyper Intuition, hmm...

No-Name-Girl: Thank you for all of those skill suggestions! I'll definitely be taking them into account! And aha, sorry, no Hibari this chapter since its still wrapping up the last, but we'll get to Hibari soon enough. Gonna wait a bit more before Tsuna tries out the Cherry Blossom Dungeon again, he's still a bit traumatized LOL. And oh great! Yeah, that's a good idea! Recognizing my Guest readers is hard when you all review as guest, LOL.

Guest: Thank you so much! As for romance, there's definitely going to be hints of it, but I won't be doing something too obvious. I'm not too good at writing romance, though I do try my best ORZ.

I died: LOL! Just imagine, Tsuna takes over as chef in Vongola cuz everyone would only eat his food.

MonochromeJoker29: Thank you :)

Kitty101: Aha, I addressed Kyoko more in my SI fic, but not as much here. We'll definitely get more Hibari sometime soon! Not in this chapter unfortunately, but he'll be making an appearance! And Lambo, huh? I wonder...that's a secret for now!

Sheepling: LOL there will definitely be hints of romance but no definite pairings! I'm quite bad at romantic things, orz.

Guest: Yeah, rewriting scenes is kind of boring. :/ Will try my best next time to make the chap more interesting!

Terry: I'm super happy you wanted to find this/remembered this fic! Thank you, I feel so honored, ahh!
