How To Combat A Persistent Odour:

1: Lots and lots and LOTS of air freshener. Five cans and one spare in case the smell comes back!
2: Fresh flowers. My roommate thinks I bat for the other team now, but so what? Flowers smell good!
3: Fruit in a bowl! Smells nice, and tastes nice!
4: Lemon juice! Seriously, if you mix some lemon juice with some ( Read more... )

smell be gone~, what do nuns like?

I'm glad you were able to finally get rid of the smell. Even if it meant covering it up with the scent of something else. And I guess that now explains why Takuma-kun was smelling like lemons yesterday. I recall him saying something about stopping by Saint Rudolph to see you, but I didn't make the connection. It seems the smell transferred to him.

Unless you know what your nun friend likes, it may be better to do something for her as opposed to giving her something. Perhaps help her out in some way. She helped you, so it's only polite to return the favor.

Ahh, yeah, he came over to visit and hang out for a bit. Even helped me clean the windows! Hey, why haven't you come to see me and my new shiny (and lemon fresh) dorm?

... Good point. Alright, ex-Buchou-sama! I'll do as you suggest and follow Sister Matic around and help her out.

Ah, yeah, the rooms are a year old now, so there must have had someone messy in your room the year before. Glad you got rid of the smell, and yeah, the nuns know a lot of good tricks for cleaning up.

Flowers are good as gifts, but offering to help clean up around the school/church is even better because it reduces the work they have to do.

I think there must have been some kind of troll living in this room. Judging from the smell at least. (^_^)

I offered to help, but they tell me that it's ok and do it themselves. One even patted my head and called me a 'good boy' and turned me away. So... when do I stop becoming a good boy and start becoming a bother?

Teenage boys smell awful. You're in the freshman building, right? Which room are you in?

Being persistent helps. ^^ They think you're just being polite. Like instead of offering to help one carry something, put your hands on it and say, "Here, let me help." They let go right away and viola! You're helping.
