Tadashi's father stares long and hard at him for a moment. Narrowed gaze and tightened brow assessing the situation like a judge deciding a murder case. There comes a moment where without a word he takes the bottle Tadashi presented along with his apology and turns it over in his hands multiple times. After what feels like an eternity he finally speaks, eyes once again upon Tadashi though he is still turning the bottle over in his hands.
"And how" he asks "did you and your friends obtain this?". Through the stern tone that refelcts upon his act as disciplinary in the house Tadashi can hear the slightest hint of curiosity. The bottle he has obtained must be truly rare indeed.

Sweating beneath his father's gaze Tadashi begins to sweat as he replies, "Father you know of my school and as you know I have been excelling in my studies, but you may not know I have been excelling at the fighting aspect of it also." (note to GM my father is displease at my choice of style because it is not a formal/traditional martial art) at this his father gives both a frown and albeit slight an approving nod.
Ignoring the frown Tadashi gain confidence, "After drinking," a flush of red crosses his face at announcing his wrong doings again, "one of the group mentioned a drunk, mainly school, tournament going on around town with a prize to fit."

There is the tiniest twitch of the brow from Tadashi's father at the mention of the tournament.
"And I take it that prize was this?" His hands stop inspecting the bottle now, perhaps content that it is not tampered with. Not taking his gaze from you he sets it down on a side table. "This is what was given when you and your friends won this drunken debacle?"

With eyes down and head bowed Tadashi simply replies, "Yes, Father."
After a few moments of silence he asks, "what is your punishment for me?"

"Four hours in seiza" he replies pointing a hand to the usual place "and no late night excursions for two weeks". Tadashi's father waits for him to assume the proper posture before leaving to place his new bottle back where the old one was taken from.

As soon as father turns his attention from me, I will politely ask my younger brother to fetch my school bag so that i may study. (no Olympic Wrestling magazine in this one)

Your brother complies.
Stern talking to and sore legs aside it all blows over fairly well. Perhaps even better considering Tadashi has a bit more proof of wrestling's validity with this victory under his belt. However gaining approval in both the household and the arena of acedamia will be a bit more difficult than a one night brawl....
[Official Episode start! Episode Eight - A right to pass!]
We cut now to a different scene. Tadashi eagerly walking towards his first official appointment for student council business. After having joined initially he had been told he was on "rung three", the lowest of reserve voters for school bills. Strictly on call, and today in the middle of History they had called. It was him and another classmate Akihiro.
"So what do you think they're voting on?" Akihiro asks Tadashi as they walk down the schools hallways.

Tadashi only half listens to his classmate as they walk along to the meeting, "Finally a chance to make a difference in this school. Its is a travesty what they have reduced the wrestling club too, having their sign ups in the bathrooms this will not, must not happen again. For these young men who have a true passion for the Olympic art of wrestling to be shamed as such is a crime against them."

Tadashi's hallway companion looks at him for a long moment, unblinking and at a loss for words at this honest display of pation and general wrestling advacocy. As the two of you draw closer to your location he manages to find a couple of words.
"Well..guess we'll find out when we get there" he responds while scratching the back of his head.
All too soon the two of you arrive in the usual student council meeting room, a retired science lab re-furnished with large and long tables and many chairs. All face a single lab table at the front that has a podium inlaid from the back or it so as to face the rest of the rooms audience. Most of the group having already arrived there are only a few seats to the left side of the room and a couple towards the back....but the rest of that meeting was too boring to recall.
Let's face forward to what happened later shall we?
