"Nn? What's so questionable about questing here?"

There was a time where she felt like there was no reason for her to continue to exist. Now, the entirety of Kivotos is counting on her continued existence and support.

That being said, it would help if she had a little more of an idea of what exactly she was doing.

Sunaokami Shiroko becoming Sensei may have either been the best or the worst mistake ever to grace Kivotos.

Nnotes - Nnot again! New
...This feels oddly familiar at this point.

Welcome back, again, again, to BEWARE OF DOG! I don't really have much to say about this other than I can't help but feel like this is a Skyrim situation where I'm porting this to literally everywhere.

Over the next few days, I'll port over the other chapters of this story bit by bit.

Nnotes - Nnames and Naming Schemes New
The codenames used during the bank heist are all names of various Sensei from other fics:

Hinata Zero - Hinata Ao (A Father's Love - UCCMaster, Zodai)
Yume One - Yume Kuchinashi (Aqua Dream Archive - hunter10bt)
Birkin Two - Joshua Birkin (Story of Joshua Sensei - TRUExtremeSamxX)
Trailblazer Three - Stelle 'The Galactic Educator/Baseballer' McNoLastName (Trails in the Stars - RabuRibu)
Nelson Four - HMS Nelson (From Sea To Sky - Number-75 (Numbers75))
Faust - Faust (??? - Sensei)
Courier Six - Courier Six (A Courier For Kivotos - UnknownSixth)

It's from reading longer fics like these that inspired me to start writing BA stories in the first place, so I really wanted to shout them out. Other elements were borrowed and used in BEWARE OF DOG as well; for example, the GSC President's name being implied to be 'Ao Haru' is taken from 'A Father's Love'.

Adding onto this, each one was actually picked to act somewhat reflective of the FTF member they were given to:

Ayane (Hinata Zero) - Is somewhat of the tactician of the group, much like how Ao is a combat instructor.

Hoshino (Yume One) - Doesn't really need much explanation. Yume and Hoshino are close, of course.

Shiroko (Birkin Two) - Kuroko and Shiroko have something of a rivalry. Therefore, it would make sense the former would nickname the latter after a somewhat... scuffed Sensei.

Nonomi (Trailblazer Three) - In Trails In The Stars, Nonomi ends up leaving the FTF early because Stelle missed their letter for a far longer period of time than in canon. This is also why she has a bad feeling about the name in this story.

Serika (Nelson Four) - ...okay I'll be honest I just really like From Sea To Sky. I can't come up with any other feasible explanation for this one, sorry. Maybe if you squint it's an ironic name since Nelson's a ship and cats historically aren't fans of water?

Faust (Faust) - She was born to wear that name. The legend of Faust must live on.

Kuroko (Courier Six) - I realized it would not only make sense as a codename since she's the sixth one in the Masked Swimsuit Gang, but it would also allow me to just straight up use the name wholesale.

Another thing I would like to point out is the theme naming of the chapters and, indeed, the story itself. For each chapter in this story, I decided to name them after various signage one might encounter in day to day life while still being thematically accurate.

This naming scheme also extends to the story's title; hence why the logo for this series is based on an actual 'BEWARE OF DOG' sign. In future chapters, this lead to me having to look up signage and stuff to name them, which ended up proving somewhat difficult.

Suggestions of potentially obscure signs and labels you see in your daily life I could use for future chapters is very welcome.
