[ There's someone out in the gardens today. Not that people would be, and maybe there would even be some doing as she does, but this one seems to have a strange presence about her, one that gives a feeling at the pit of the stomach about something bad...

But nothing about her actions seem to to give reason for this feeling. No, not unless there's something really awful about the green-haired young woman taking an interest in the snow. She takes steps crunching her boots into it, a playful smile on her face as she does, and even takes it up into her hands to feel and watch the clumps fall down from it.

Or maybe she isn't doing that at all. Maybe your character happens to be out, minding their own business, when they feel someone watching them- or have that odd feeling come over them. Maybe if they look, kept away, they will see her taking an interest in what they're doing. Carrying bags? Playing in the snow (themselves)? Or just walking? Whatever it may be, Hina is always watching. ]

That's quite rude of you.

[Says Akiha as she trudges through the snow with a bag and a thermos to the woman behind her that she didn't know. Bundled up against the cold, Akiha had been on her way back from the wild places (which would explain why the ends of her long black hair seems to look like it's made of ice), sipping something from the thermos, when she'd felt herself being watched. She'd ignored it for a while, but then it seemed like the woman was following her.

Naturally, she had to call her out on it.]

Who?

[ The 'response' came after a little while. Seeing as she was by herself, Hina had no idea who she could be speaking to. Did she see someone? Yet without Akiha facing her, it was lost on her who she was speaking to. ]

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

You. Don't pretend you're not aware of your own actions.

[Akiha glances over her shoulder, the tinkling of ice hitting ice accompanying the movement.]

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

I'm aware of myself.

[ Though if Akiha is angry, she doesn't get it. At least Hina now knows she's speaking to her. ]

I was watching over you to make sure you would be okay.

[ritsu-kouyou.livejournal.com]

That was wholly unnecessary. I can take care of myself.

.... Why do I get the feeling that something horrible is about to happen? [ The grin is uneasy, but still there. Battler does look around a bit to see if someone IS staring at her ]

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

You do?

[ That's enough of a reason for her to come out from her place behind the tree. A horrible feeling, you say...? ]

[bluetruths.livejournal.com]

[ She turns to look at the source of the sudden voice ] --Yeah. Ihihih, guess I should tell whatever it is to bring it on. I'm pretty used to bad luck by now.

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

[ Used to it? Those words certainly ping her. ]

You should give your misfortune to the gods. Have you?

[Alice is just minding her own business, when that feeling strikes. She knows this feeling. This has been around before. Looks like someone has showed up.

Let's ignore it. Alice has better things to do than to chat up someone in the cold, god or otherwise.]

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

[ Don't worry then, Alice! Hina will just keep following you. From a distance, of course. ]

[shanghaiworld.livejournal.com]

[Bloody hell. Alice is picking up the pace.]

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

[ Gonna keep following until you get to a house or somewhere that isn't the open snow, Alice! Though she is looking around now, wondering if she might be getting cold or something more sinister... ]

[doihavepanties.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. It's not that often I end up being stalked.



Normally, it's the other way around.

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

I won't harm you. [ Then don't mind if she continues following from a nice distance...! ] I wanted to make sure you safely reached others like yourself.

[doihavepanties.livejournal.com]

Did you have reason to believe I wouldn't?

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

With the sudden snow, there may have been those that were unprepared. I've also sensed different youkai here amongst the humans, so I wanted to make sure they were okay.

[ Sakuri's outside wandering in the snow by herself when she suddenly feels a lot more uneasy than she usually does - no mean feat. She gives a quick, terrified glance around her. ]

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

Are you alright?

[ The eyes upon her are from up - up in a tree, that is. Hina decided to sit up in one to watch any passer bys. ]

[afutilegesture.livejournal.com]

[ She looks up, and... trips on her own feet, falling backwards onto the snow. ]

U-uh...

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

Oh!

[ Here, let her come down. With ease, she brings herself down from the height. ]

I'm sorry, did I scare you?

wah whatever I guess I'll just tag this late

[The wave of unease that overtakes her would be easy to write off as a fluke or irrational, but Sol is one to trust her instincts more often than not. So, while she makes no move to pick up the pace of her stride, she does stay on guard as she walks. At first, she's content to ignore the feeling as long as it remains just that, but after it's been a while and it still hasn't faded... She stops, looking at nothing in particular as she says:]

...You want something?


[ ooc: As a note, there's a point in GG2 where Gears are implied to have a make up similar to youkai. So, considering that, if Hina can pick up on these things Sol might ping as a youkai or youkai-like. ]

oh mega rude!! thanks for letting me know about Sol :)

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

[ When the woman stops, Hina stops. Having been in a forest by herself for so long surrounded in the misfortunes she had picked up, spotting and watching others unnoticed wasn't as easy in a completely new place. But still, seeing all these different kinds of people made her curious...

She would have to be more careful. ]

I wanted to see where you would go.

stupid holidays, getting in the way of tagging all the fun posts 8(

[dragoninstalled.livejournal.com]

[Her eyes flick in the direction of Hina's voice when she replies.]

Couldn't just ask?

[Not that doing as much would guarantee an answer, but Sol at least appreciated directness.]

who needs holidays anyway, am i right?!

[miserytaker.livejournal.com]

[ She gives it a thought, her eyes shifting up before looking back to Sol. ]

Where are you going? What will you do?
