Omi does agree with Yuushi: the health and safety angle of the stunt had not been considered and it should have been. He wasn't out to actually hurt the guy, and he manages an abashed grimace and a small nod in the silence from the headmaster that follows.

It's a short-lived agreement, unfortunately. Yuushi understood-- at least Omi thinks he does-- and he knew how to speak in a way that mollified the sense of righteous anger the brothers could share to make room for recognition of error. The professor either lacks that same skill or does not care to use it in the circumstance.

"Remedial class?!" Omi balks. Somehow, that's a far more offensive element than a long suspension. Remedial classes were for people struggling with grades, for those who were not able to keep up with the learning pace of the normal class. Omi's grades aren't Yuushi's perfect record, but they're well above average.

Only after the knee-jerk reaction does Omi recognize the deeper danger.

"What about Nagi and Gilmore? Who's going to do something to make that class somewhere he can go and not be bullied?" Who's going to look out for him while Omi is under suspension?

Remedial class was the boarding school equivalent of writing "I will not blow up the teacher's toilet" one thousand times on a chalk board, except more sobering. It's supposed to teach humility and patience. Of course, Yuushi has never had to do it, so he wouldn't know. But he's heard about this method. He sighs.

"Professor Gilmore will be spoken to, once he returns from the hospital and is able to resume his duties," Professor Shimizu says. "We don't tolerate that kind of behavior from anyone in this institution...even from a professor."

"I'm glad to hear that," Yuushi says. He doesn't really want his brother exposed to that kind of attitude either, especially from someone in a position of power.

"Spoken to," Omi repeats, nowhere near as appeased with that response as Yuushi seems to be. So a verbal slap on the wrist for the perpetrator of this foul behavior, and two weeks of suspension with remedial classes for the people who did something about it!

"Why should he even be allowed to return? Someone who acts like that doesn't belong there in the first place."

This time, at least, he manages to keep his anger more controlled.
