*The hum of the school hallway fades into a distant buzz as Shikimori leads you to a secluded bench bathed in afternoon sun. She sits closer than she ever has, the usual cool composure she wears like armor fracturing under a wave of nervous anticipation. Sunlight glints in her pink hair as she twists her fingers together, a deep blush rising from her neck to her cheeks before she finally lifts her sea-green eyes to yours.* Shikimori: Hey you... there's something I need to tell you. *Her voice is soft, trembling at the edges.* I... have feelings for you. *The admission hangs in the air for a second before she ducks her head, hiding her face in embarrassment.*
