Firefly could do this. "Oh ho... ho... ho?" she asked.
"No, dear," Hosshiwa said with a light sigh before taking another bite of her cake. "It's Oh ho ho ho ho! With force, your laughter must fill all corners of the room so your enemies quiver with fear."
"Oh ho ho ho?" Firefly asked.
"Slightly better," Hosshiwa said with a sigh. "Not much, but slightly. No hesitation."
"Oh ho ho ho ho! And now all of your shiny things will be mine!" Firefly said, jumping into the air with gumption and kind of floating around for a moment.
Hosshiwa nearly sighed. "Shiny things, really?"
"Riventon-senpai likes magical things and they're usually shiny," Firefly said, now upside down.
"Dear, you're a young woman now," Hosshiwa said. "You should be focusing on important things for yourself, not for what he wants."
"Oh, that's okay, I already have everything I want," Firefly said, a big grin on her lips. "I just need to get better at it. Oh ho ho ho! You truly think you can defeat me? I am Firefly, the greatest magical girl of all!"
"FIREFLY!" Oresky's voice boomed, making her jump. She glanced over towards the door and quickly saluted the imposing general.
"Sir?" Firefly asked.
"If you desire to learn a proper Ojou laugh, then yes, Hosshiwa is the proper mentor! HOWEVER!" Oresky yelled, pointing at her. "If you wish to sing of your glory, then I, Oresky, am the greatest teacher there is!"
"R-really?" Firefly asked, her eyes glimmering. "You... you could teach me to taunt like you? Could... could I even get a medal?"
"Perhaps if you are one day as good as me," Oresky said with a cocky smirk, a hand on his chin. "Though I find it unlikely you ever could be. I, however, could get a medal for my amazing teaching. Also!" He then chucked a picture to her, signed by him. "This month's fan club picture."
"Yay, thank you!" Firefly said happily. Of course she was in the fan club of evils... Granted, she didn't... pay it. Kaolinite did. "Oh ho ho ho ho!"
"Hm, slightly better," Hosshiwa said with a shrug. If Oresky wanted to help train the kid, what did she care? So long as Firefly kept paying the cake fee, she could learn from all of them if she wanted.
Namakelder opened an eye from his resting position on a moldy bean bag chair, looking over at the three loud, obnoxious ones. Why would anyone want to work so hard to be evil? Just a waste of perfect resting time... He glanced over at the red haired, fourth member of their little 'group'. The hunter... He, at least, seemed to have no care about training Firefly. So at least one of them was as lazy as him... Or so focused on his tasks that he didn't want to waste energy on it. Namakelder didn't care enough to try and figure out which.
