I'm done too. [He'll pick up his tray to throw away his rubbish] We're not going to get in trouble poking around?

[He's still getting his head around boarding school life]

[dissimulative]

We won't get in trouble if we don't get caught~

[ Oria cleans up his tray too. ]

Besides, a good exercise right after a meal feels great, doesn't it?

[ He starts leading Sinclair out of the cafeteria and into the spaces between the buildings that can be likened to alleyways. ]

[insinning]

[...

Beatrice probably wont be too mad if he gets in trouble for being out of bounds at night. Probably]

I really don't understand how you move so quickly after eating that much either...

[There's a reason Sinclair likes to keep his meals light. But he lets Oria lead him out of the cafeteria, eyeing up the alleyways(?). There aren't going to be any stories of hauntings to go with this, are there?]

[dissimulative]

[ Well. ]

Did you hear about the seven mysteries of the school? One of them is a black cat that tries to tag your leg to bless you for good luck on your next test.

[ lmao. Oria rolls his eyes but he grins anyway. ]

It's usually seen around here. I wanna see if we can find it. Catnapping.

[insinning]

[He's not perking up. He's too mature now to get excited over small fluffy creatures.

(He wants to see this cat)]

And here I thought you were going to give me some kind of horror story. [He relaxes now and pulls out his phone for a little light]

A black cat, huh? That'll be hard to find...

[dissimulative]

It will be if you keep flashing your phone around. But if it's a horror story you want, it's a horror story that you'll get. There's another cat story, but it's a cat... with hands.

[ Oria even raises his hands to wiggle his fingers. Totally not scary. ]

It will eat you after giving you three ququestions. No one has lived through the three.

[insinning]

Fine. [He turns his phone back off, and then bats at Oria's hands. Quit it] A cat with hands would be a little creepy, but...

[He'll just crouch low and make some cat coaxing noises. Here kitty, kitty?]

[dissimulative]

[ No kitties come to Sinclair's call except... an orange tabby. It seems pretty friendly and rubs itself all over Sinclair's leg. Mew.

Oria just looks at this with an amused look on his face. ]

Disney princess.

[insinning]

Shh. [Sinclair would shoot Oria a look, but he's too busy giving the orange tabby all the scritches it deserves]

Now where did you come from?

[dissimulative]

[ If only meows, purrs, and flops on its side. Rub belly pls. Oria looks at the cat and then at Sinclair before hopping onto a side ladder to climb up the building. ]

[insinning]

[It's so cute...! Sinclair gives it the belly rubs it deserves]

Maybe I should have saved some food for you...

[It looks like a chubby kitty though? Probably doesn't need it. Sorry Oria, you are temporarily overlooked when CAT]

[dissimulative]

[ Oria is probably slightly more normal in this thread, so he's jealous of that cat. Hmph. He keeps climbing as the orange tabby is basking in the attention. While Sinclair is busy doing that, a black cat smacks Sinclair's ankle and zips out. ]

[insinning]

Ah--the black cat--!

[Sinclair stops petting the orange tabby out of surprise. He looks around, then up. Oria how did you get up there so fast??]

Oria, did you see?

[dissimulative]

I can't see a black cat when it's so dark already...

[ From his distance, anyway. Oria is at the emergency stairwell, peering down at Sinclair. ]

Did it really just smack you and leave? What a weird cat.

[ Though there seems to be someone behind Oria... ]

[insinning]

...ah. Oria...behind you...

[He'll just straighten up in concern. Sorry orange tabby, but he'll definitely be back with treats tomorrow]

[dissimulative]

Huh?

[ Oria turns around to see... nothing. Hm? It was just there a moment ago. Was it a trick of the light? He looks back down at Sinclair. ]

You know that I think all the school legends are bullshit, right?

[insinning]

I don't even know what they're meant to be...is there supposed to be a legend about people standing at emergency stairwells?

[Because uh. Sinclair gives the cat a few more anxious pats "I'll come back with some food tomorrow, okay?" and begins his climb up the ladder]

[dissimulative]

No? Why would there be when there aren't many people who do that in the first place?

[ Oria watches Sinclair climb and climb... at least he waits for him this time. When he catches up, he makes his way to the rooftop. ]

But there's a stalker story!

[insinning]

...a stalker story?

[That is concerning. Sinclair probably isn't as strong as Oria, but he can keep up with the climbing without slowing down]

[dissimulative]

[ Oria holds out a hand to Sinclair to help him up for the last stretch, but there's that ominous figure behind him again... ]

Yeah, it's like this dark figure that lurks behind you. People say it's the ghost of the founder to tell the students to go back to their dorms.

[ He laughs. ]

Or he'll shove them to the ground.

[insinning]

[Sinclair freezes, as his grip on Oria's hand tightens a little]

...um. Really?

[His gaze is frozen a little past Oria's shoulder]

[dissimulative]

Yeah, something like how if good kids won't stay in their dorms, he'll make them. What a creeper. Stalking... really?

[ Oria pulls Sinclair up and... the figure is no longer there. ]

What, feeling a bit scared?

[insinning]

N-no, but...

[ Sinclair nervously inches a little closer, practically clinging to Oria's arm. He can't shake the feeling of being watched]

I swear I just saw someone again...

[dissimulative]

I'll beat them up.

[ He gives Sinclair a very reassuring smile. Sinclair is worried about him and Oria is liking the feeling of being clung onto like this. Hmmm.

There really doesn't need to be any analysis. ]

If you start feeling uneasy, we can go back down if you want. This is the place where I usually do parkour stuff, jumping from roof to roof.

[insinning]

[If Oria doesn't mind Sinclair will keep clinging until his nerves settle. He doesn't like ghosts... but Oria's smile is very reassuring]

...no, it's fine. If you get up here often, it should be safe, right?

[Though he'll peer over the edge and back at Oria]

I'm surprised you haven't gotten caught practising here though.
