The moment Megumi spoke up Hina seemed to sink back impossibly far into her cloak as her embarrassment dialled up to 11. Half convinced that her legs where about to give out beneath her, Hina willed her inventory panel into existence and with a few swipes of her finger had equipped her mask to conceal her face.

[color=9e0b0f]"... I'm s-sorry, I... I'll s-stop i-if you want... y-you can just call me H-Hina..."[/color]

Hina's voice rapidly shrank as she spoke until it was barely a whisper and she wanted to curl up into a ball and cry, but instead let out a shaky breath, blinking away her tears from behind her mask (actually how was it she could see through her mask? Another question for latter). 

[color=9e0b0f][i]'Why did I think acting like myself would be better? This is so much worse...'[/i][/color]

Stopping herself from burying her face in her hands Hina instead extended a shaking arm in what might have been a motion for a handshake had she not immediately withdrawn the arm. 

[color=9e0b0f]"D-do you know w-whats going on... w-what's the plan?"[/color]
