[h2]Shiroyama Higasha[/h2]

Higasha was still not well-versed when it came to human interaction, but even someone as socially inept as she could tell that Akane was mad about [i]something[/i]. Her landlord, partner and saviour had been quite irate while interrupting her stream, no doubt making it even more difficult to earn money from the 'merch' Higasha had decided she owned. Sure, she might have forgotten they were suppoosed to come by this office, but five minutes to end the stream with her hashtags and pleas for more donations wasn't that tall an ask, surely?

Silently, she shuffled behind Akane, already wishing she could find a comfy place to nap. It wasn't a lack of sleep finally hitting her, she just hated being forced to leave her chair for obligatory errands. Still, if akane needed her to come along, it wasn't her place to complain. Higasha wasn't quite sure what she had to apologise for, though. Earning money through hard work was something to be admired, surely?

Oh well. Higasha was forced to bow in apology alongside Akane, slowly straightening herself after a few moments. Indeed, everyone else seemed to be there already... alongside a few new faces? How many newbies were there? She regarded the unfamiliar faces curiously, her expression as blank as always, and directed her blue eyes towards Akio and Sanae.

"More specifically, this errand got in the way of important work, I apologise," Higasha was nice enough to clarify with her oblivious, tone-deaf explanation.
