[ Oh my goood it's just like my doujin!

Do you think they'll get together?

No way, he killed her dad! But they might- ]

It was. Thank you for the belated well wishes.

[ He's nauseous. ]

What is it?

[girlybruiser]

Where are you?

[enteloki]

[ It's a date?

Maybe!

We should go. I can watch from those bushes and oh-

I'm gonna make sooooo much money selling these pics online.

The group begins to thin out as each takes their weird stalker places. Akechi? Isn't gonna look a gift horse in the mouth. He takes the first opportunity he can to slink through the small opening. ]

Somnius, near the grocer. Why?

[girlybruiser]

[ If only she knew about the crazed Akeharu fans.

She might One-Shot Kill a lot of them. ]

Can you stay there? I'll try not to be too long.

[ If she asks if he's feeling well, he'll just tell her whatever it is she wants to hear.

Better to assess it in person. At least she has Amrita Shower. ]

[enteloki]

[ Oh god. ]

Of course.

[ The fans split - hide in bushes, behind houses. It's pointless to warn Haru when she's aware of such issues and he doesn't care enough to stop her from embaressing herself.

When she arrives, he's exactly where he said. A smile, a light wave. They're watching, after all. ]

This is a surprise. What did you need?

[girlybruiser]

[ He looks fine... but he certainly isn't acting like it.

Perhaps it's the flowers from the Garden of Dreams at play here. God knows what effects they've had on others this time around.

It wouldn't be unwelcome if the searing memory of a knife piercing her flesh and vicious fingers ripping at her hair weren't circling her thoughts. ]

Erm... I'm merely concerned, is all. Do you have a fever?

[enteloki]

No, not at all. I'm as healthy as ever. Save your concerns for someone else.

[ Whatever this is? He doesn't like it. It wears on his nerves, puts him on edge.

There's no way she's kind enough to check on him at the thought of him being ill. She wouldn't have gathered that from texts.

A hand rests on his hip, the other waves her off. ]

Or were you just desperate to hear happy birthday in person? I can indulge you this once.

[girlybruiser]

[ Unfortunately, reaching her hand out to feel his forehead feels like the equivalent of sticking a hand into a bear cage, so she stands there uncertain on what to do next. ]

Hey!

[ She's furiously fighting back the blood creeping into her cheeks. ]

You don't need to tease! [ Okay, something is seriously wrong. ] You're not yourself, Akechi-kun. Did you get hit with Confuse or Brainwash?

[enteloki]

[ God he fucking wishes.

But this? Is entertaining in its own right. It's a rare to see her squirm - she's always on guard, always ready to bite back.

It's, perhaps, a bit too enticing. He should rebuke every statement coming out of her mouth, but instead-

He wants to push it further. To do that without getting gaining any ire from the hidden fans is a balancing act he wasn't prepared for. ]

Do you think so poorly of me? That I would need to be ailed in order to wish someone well? That makes me feel a bit bad.

[girlybruiser]

[ Her cheek remain tinged a soft hue of red, but she manages to get her bearings after that remark. Something about it pricks at her in a familiar fashion that he typically does with her, but she's still not sure why he's behaving in such a manner.

She pulls her purse around her waist, opening it up and rummaging around for something. ]

No, that's not the case. [ When she can't find what it is she's looking for, she quickly stops to look at him squarely in the face, her expression far more neutral now. ] I have no illusions about the young man you are. I don't believe you would appreciate if I did have those.

[ Well, no paper for a makeshift fan.

That's fine.

Because she suddenly has her axe in her hand. And a big, eager smile on her face. ]

Ah, don't worry, though! I think Harisen Recovery will help here!
