Ooh? Is that true? I suppose I should think a bit closer about that.

[But well Gundam does have a point. Komaeda can appreciate that. It could be too easy to be partied out at that point, and he doesn't want Hinata's birthday to wind up overlooked because of that.]

Actually I asked him for his advice on food for the party!

[This time around, huh? Komaeda can't help a sheepish smile even if it can't be seen. It's not like he can blame people for being suspicious of him. He does, however, answer that next offer eagerly.] That's very generous of you, Tanaka-kun! Especially when it turns out I actually do have a soul. A friend helped me find out for sure.

[That aside.] But I would appreciate the help. Do you know anything about good music for a party? [...this can't end well, can it?]
