[@AThousandCurses][@DarckLeon] [color=7ea7d8]"Ah, take your time,"[/color] said Kauro. He watched the cashier get his order, completely unaware of the absolute unit that was standing behind him. There was no way that an other worldly force would try to take him away in a public space, but then again time stopped, and he was pulled into another world, so that was probably useless. His thoughts were drifting until he heard someone refer to him by name. Typically, Kaoru was someone that would be unphased by surprises. He had consumed so much horror media that it had rendered him immune to jump scares. Given the strange and dangerous circumstances, however, he almost seemed to recoil as he turned around to see who exactly it was that knew him. It was just some guy wearing his school's uniform, so that would explain how he knew who Kauro was. After all, Kauro worked quite hard to get his position within the school's hierarchy. Holy shit this dude was tall. Quickly recovering, Kauro flashed a charming smile and said, [color=7ea7d8]"It was fine. I don't think we've had the chance to meet before."[/color] His attention though was brought back to the cashier who had his order ready. [color=7ea7d8]"Uh, yeah that would be all. Thank you."[/color] Kauro had the money ready in hand though his perceptive eyes caught the cashier's strange behavior. It was as if he was looking behind him, despite there being nothing behind him. Kauro arched his brow in confusion, standing a bit skewed to see whatever the cashier was looking for. All he could see though were just shelves with cigarettes. [color=7ea7d8]"Hey, are you okay? You're looking kinda pale there,"[/color] asked the redhead. Right now, he had no reason to assume that this guy had any involvement with Strange Gospel. For all he knew, the poor guy just faced harassment from management.
