Beauty of Feature! Tsubomi Kiss Alert

While they are undergoing a cops-and-robbers exercise at Ichirou's behest to teach them the sentiments of the criminals that they confront, Kaoru and her teammates wonder what their leader is up to that for which their presence is a hinderance -- Minamoto in convoy with Taizou and Oboro to pay a visit to Fujiko Tsubomi who has been in a decade-long estivation. After a brief history lesson, Taizou concludes that not much can be accomplished and is about to lead Oboro and Minamoto away when Aoi and her teammates phase in from a teleportation jump eager to find out what their leader is doing. A ping-pong match of insults/errant comments/seduction and Kaoru's telekinetic shoving defines the conclusion of Fujiko's estivation after Shiho's psychometry reads Fujiko's involuntary energy siphoning as voluntary seduction/copulation. After an introductory kiss to Kaoru/Shiho/Aoi (much to their watery/soapy disgust) along with the just-arrived Naomi, Fujiko sets to bringing herself up to speed at B.A.B.E.L. and yearns to spend more girl time with Double Face before approaching Minamoto to explain that his esper charges are going to turn out exactly what Kyousuke wants if they stay under his leadership in its incumbent state. As Minamoto is sent off to another location to be detained, Ichirou leads Naomi and The Children on another exercise -- this time, a tanker with a leaky fuel tank that will explode in 30 minutes. Fujiko phases in to begin appraising both The Children and Naomi before mentioning Minamoto's impending arrival. After seeing Naomi beating up on Ichirou, it becomes apparent that Fujiko wants Kaoru and her teammates to help her teach Minamoto what it takes to change fate. Unfortunately, the only change to fate that Fujiko's cruel prank successfully effects is Minamoto angrily resigning from B.A.B.E.L. in disgust of his feelings being trivialized and manipulated so friviously by his esper charges.
