Behind you

[gudbye_despair]

Maybe you can call it veteran soldier's perk. Or maybe it's some supernatural sixth sense. Or maybe it's your survival instinct. Whatever you call it, for this past week you often find your goosebump rising, as if someone is observing you. But you never managed to caught the culprit.

Until now. You're doing your own business. Eating? Repairing something? Just walking in a hall? Or bathing? When you turn your head, you find Elena's face peeking from behind a corner.

[Sora normally has the benefit of her partner AI to keep watch, though she's noticed that chill often enough. Today, however, finds her in the showers. Which means POTPOURRI isn't there to search for threats. So when she feels the chill again, she whirls, holding a bar of soap to throw at the intruder...!]

Who's there!? I... oh hey, there's actually someone there. And female, too. Hello?

*It's elena, in a towel*

Do you need for your back to be washed, Miss Sora?

...Sure, why not? Thanks. Um... have we met, though?

And why were you sneaking up on me? ['Do I have a stalker...?']

You finally noticed me. I'm so happy.
