[ Oh, hey, she kind of remind him of someone he knows. (In an awkward way.) And since she seems to be gloomy for some reason, he might as well go out on a limb and greet her. ]

Hello? Is something wrong?

[occultisan]

[ She looks up at you slowly, staring with small beady eyes, hair dripping down her shoulders looking like something that just came out of the tv. ]

No, nothing's wrong. Only that I'm not getting very much interest for my club. It seems not many want to approach.

[ A pause. ]

Would you like to join the Occult Research Club?

[rebut]

Eh, um, well...

[ MUSN'T RUN AWAY... MUSN'T RUN AWAY... ]

What exactly does the Occult Research Club do? Aside from the obvious, I mean.

[occultisan]

[ Yuuki smiles. Which is... not exactly the most pleasant thing to see. A potential club member! ]

We hold various activities such as fortune telling, hold séances, occasionally ask outside help to do things like tape a horror film. We're thinking of trying to do demon summoning soon.

[rebut]

I see...

[ Sadly, he's seen creepier... And why a horror film? It's not like they go hand in hand, right? But he probably shouldn't say that out loud, so have an alternate dialogue choice instead. ]

Isn't demon summoning really dangerous?

[occultisan]

A lower demon is what we're hoping to summon. It's fine if it's a little dangerous. We can send it off to the non-believers. And they'll see. They'll finally see.

[rebut]

Wouldn't that just cause mass panic? A demon would just make everyone run for the hills...

[ That is, if they actually managed it... Which he doubts. Aren't they just stories and legends? ]

[occultisan]

I'm sure it'll be okay if we make a pact for it not to cause destruction and bodily harm. There's been similar disturbances around the school anyway.

[ She glances around him, seemingly on the look out for someone or something. ]

[rebut]

If that worked, I guess it'd be— Wait, "similar disturbances"...?

[ That's the first he's heard about that! And thanks to that glancing around, Naegi blinks and curiously looks around him for whatever she's looking for. ]

[occultisan]

[ She turns to focus back on Naegi. It doesn't seem her rival and his club have set up their booth which was suppose to be across from theirs. ]

Things like a monkey loose on the grounds, there was someone who was smashing windows and such.

[rebut]

[ Well, that was weird. ]

Is that sort of thing really normal here?
