[ wherever zag is, haru is suddenly behind him. she takes a deep breath and goes: ]

Boo!

[ but it's more squeaked out than yelled ]

[emancipating]

[ zagreus is, conveniently, standing like a doofus in the middle of a hallway squinting down at his watch. he seems to be texting someone, likely playing the truth or dare game, and thus is completely oblivious to haru sneaking up on him.

the suddenness of her squeak is enough to startle him and he jerks, stumbling a little as he turns to find the source of the sound. ]

Gah! [ oh— it's the woman who tried to help him with his feet. he takes a deep breath, hand over his chest as he smiles. ] Oh, hello, there. I'm sorry, I didn't hear you approaching.

[axingnicely]

[ she doesn't quite startle when she hears him yelp and when he jerks, but she does stiffen up a little bit... she recognizes him as the man whose feet were on fire ]

[ even though she did this, she's completely mortified ]

M-My apologies, Zagreus-san... it was for a dare....

[emancipating]

It's all right, please don't apologize.

[ now that he's calmed down, he visibly relaxes, his posture at ease as his expression softens. it's not her fault, after all, and this is much tamer than what other people had to do. ]

Was that enough to fulfill it?

[axingnicely]

[ true, at least she's not sending nudes ]

Yes, it was. Thank you very much.

[ and she does like a full-body bow. why is she so polite ]
