[color=fff79a]"Oh? That's good to hear,"[/color] Haruna said. She couldn't help but sound a little surprised, but there was a genuine well-wish in her voice as well. The awkward laugh had her worried for a moment that Suki was up to no good, but it seemed like it was nothing to be concerned about. Yet, anyway. She had the somewhat depressing thought that this could be a prank. [i][color=fff79a]Please let it not be that. It'd be too cruel.[/color][/i] 

Further musings on that thought were interrupted by the appearance of. . . Tsubomi? 

Wow, the club advisor worked [i]fast[/i]. She'd expected more of an ordeal, some kind of brainstorming session on how to weave together various powers, probably some difficult process of extracting the emotionless one from the original without damaging one or the other, but nope! She was just standing right there. [color=fff79a]"Do you maybe wanna say hi? I can keep a lookout for whoever's trying to meet you."[/color] Especially if it wasn't a magical girl, locating such a person would be trivial with her powers. . . assuming, once again, that this wasn't some kind of heartrending prank.
