Exactly what it says in the tin. The election has been/is a train wreck, so I'm writing sports anime fluff to deal. Pairings and theme will be marked in the subject of each reply.
"Renji, look at this!" Sadaharu said excitedly one day as he rushed across the tennis court to meet him, and somehow Renji knew their tennis practice was going to be delayed. Sadaharu took off his sunglasses, took his spare pair out of his pocket, and held them up one in front of the other. "See? If I hold them up like this, then they're just like extra dark sunglasses, but if I do this—" he rotated one pair until it was perpendicular to the other "—then you can't see anything through them at all!"
"Of course, Sadaharu," Renji replied, pushing up his own sunglasses. "It's the polarization of the lenses. It's completely expected."
"Do yours do that too? Can I see?"
Renji sighed, but he took off his sunglasses, dug out his spare pair, and demonstrated the same effect.
"Have you ever tried putting different pairs together?" Sadaharu asked.
"No, I only have mine," Renji replied.
"We should try it now! And try different angles too! Do you have your protractor with you."
"Of course I do," Renji said, taking it out of his pocket. As much as he didn't want to admit it, he was excited for the experiment as well. He could always trust Sadaharu to come up with questions he hadn't thought to analyze before. "Do you have your notebook?"
Sadaharu nodded, already opening to a new page and writing "Notes on the Behavior of Sunglasses: Data Collected by Inui Sadaharu and Yanagi Renji," across the top along with the date. He started to draw a table on the page, then stopped and looked up expectantly.
"Start at zero degrees and work in thirty degree increments?" Renji suggested.
Sadaharu nodded. "Your glasses will be L1 and R1. Mine will be L2 and R2," he said as he filled out the table. "There! Ready to start. You go first."
