Once Makoto had made her way back, Clara seemed to be deep in thought and had both been glad she hadn't been assaulted by the cheer squad as well as not really paying much attention to it to begin with. After a few more moments had passed, she shrugged and looked to Makoto. "Good job on the win, Makoto." Her tone was flat and didn't really seem to have much praise behind it, as she instead looked back to the others. Seeing that two of the eligable students to go up next were currently being hunted by a cheer shark she looked over to the last one. "David, you're up next."
After giving her thumbs up Leila simply stretched both of her arms out to the side and walked back, as if balancing on an imaginary beam, to her team. The green haired male gave her a smile saying, "good try, Leila! You were a bit shaky out there to start with but you really showed that girl what your monsters can do. Next time I'm sure you'll get it for sure!" As he beamed with positivity, this cracked a bit as he could feel Laurie's intense gaze on him.
Letting out a small chuckle, the boy looked away as Laurie shifted her attention to Leila. "There's a lot to review there but, at the end. Why didn't you XYZ Summon?"
Leila thought about it for a moment, before saying, "because I had four monsters on the field, and four is better than three. Besides, the Puddingcess Sister are invincible together."
"But you lost."
"I believe in the Puddingcess Sisters."
Laurie sighed a she gave Leila a rather hearty pat to the head, followed by several smaller ones. "Well, like I said, we'll review it for later. Only thing to do now is play the next." Laurie looked to her coach, who gestured to another of the students, to which Laurie's eyes then followed. "Lily, you're up next. Good luck out there."
