Haruki is once again, lost at what to say. He's usually grinning easily and physically affectionate to his friends (if he has any), but Akane was kind of...[i]creepy[/i]. Haruki didn't mind her much at first since she looks like the quiet type, but when Haruki looked at her and saw her face and heard her say she likes him, he softens and decided that he likes her, too. Then she saw her arms and felt her grip, and then right there, Haruki was experiencing the chills in his spine. Something he didn't expect to feel, being a boy who could see dead people. He was slightly grateful when Akane followed a someone's advice and loosened her hold, not by much, but it's progress for Haruki.

Haruki heard Akane say, and wonders what is she going with this, because Haruki has no slightest idea what is going on. He grins and pats her head affectionately. [color=coral]"Sure you can, Akane,"[/color]

While Haruki is pretty sure he won't be able to use his one arm for a while, and he has this feeling that he may someday regret that decision, the girl hasn't done anything harmful on purpose so she must be nice, right? [color=coral][i]Ever the optimist, I am.[/i][/color] 

[color=ed1c24]"How come [i]Ren[/i] gets offered a chance to see a dead body?"[/color] Seth's outburst surprised Haruki. He blinks at the mention if a dead body. He ignores Seth's question on what part of the school they want to see. Haruki has been spotting a couple of ghosts in the school, but he didn't manage to meet them with the tour and Akane attaching herself to him. Haruki raises a hand politely to ask a question to Seth. [color=coral]"Quick question: do you know how exactly old the school is?"[/color] he asks, really wanting to know and making a mental reminder to research more about the school. [color=coral][i]Interesting city. Must mean interesting school, right?[/i][/color]
