>Stop and observe.
>Contemplate the koakuma.
> You respect Koakuma's wishes, step away, and watch as she fills the pot with water and puts it on the stove. She crosses her arms and waits.
> You observe Koakuma. She's wearing some plain black barrettes today to keep her bangs out of her face, but there's still a lock falling over her nose. Her sleeves and socks are short, appropriate for the weather, but that doesn't change the fact that her jumper is still pitch black. You've only ever seen her in black and white, come to think of it. You don't know how she could wear black so often and not die every time she goes outside during a hot day. At least she doesn't layer up like Marisa does. You could get heat exhaustion just by looking at Marisa during the summer. However, you suppose it's fine that Koakuma dresses like this in the library. It can get a bit chilly indoors.
> As you're thinking all of this, the water comes to a boil. Koakuma takes the pot off the stove, and then takes part of it off and does something...very strange. She puts ground coffee beans in it, then reattaches it and puts it back on the stove with the lid open. She turns down the heat and watches as the pot starts to fill with a brown liquid.
