Strangely enough, Hiro isn't as much full of reactions as expected, and he takes the incoming moments rather lightly. Not exactly like a zombie who doesn't know what it's about at all in the first place, but he is just very comfortable with it. He sighed as she nodded and took his hand, looking down at it for a moment as he has his own cheeks redden on his face, but all in all he looks back in her eyes for a few seconds, then looking up front at the park again. "I'm sorry that it's sudden... But, I don't mind if it's with you, either!" He adds sheepishly, taking the step into the small park slowly, waiting for Yoko so that she is able to catch up properly. It's not like he wants to drag her around with his proper walking or anything, so good thing the entire situation is manageable. If Yoko hadn't said anything for a while, Hiro wouldn't either, just taking in the moment. This park is surrounded by streets and tall buildings, but somehow being in it cancels out the noise of traffic, at least it does for Hiro, almost as if being lost in some kind of trance.

Hiro simply smiled in return to her when the zombie girl mentioned that she will look after him, which was a rather sweet thing to say, although it did make him question the deal in his mind, as to how exactly she would do that, but nonetheless he doesn't put much focus on that and just keeps the conversation flowing properly, happy to spend time with her with nothing being in the way. "No idea yet, I haven't gotten that far in thinking, to be honest." He gave a simple reply to the topic of spell casting and thus the two of them moved onto the next scenery, which was a slightly awkward but adorable exchange between them. Given Yoko's obvious response, Hiro widens his eyes and looks up front for a moment, seeming to get slightly flustered as he blushes more, raising the hand he held out to rub the back of his head as to "save" the situation more less, to make it look less awkward. "Yeah- I mean- No! I w-wouldn't find it weird. That's... That's why I asked!" He lets his hand hang again, turning back to look in her eyes after mustering up courage. "I thought I could try that with you... I thought you would find it weird though, so like- I took time to say it..." He murmurs out, stumbling in his words here and there, but ultimately manages to say out what he wants. He eyes her further reaction, slightly anxious as to what she might say.

Hiro appreciates the energy within Yoko at the moment, which would be a little strange considering he's not exactly a living being, but then again it's super cute seeing her in a state like this. Keeping it at the first topic for a moment, as he replies with something. "Hurt? No, nobody hurt me, it's just the kind of person I am, always slightly scared of strangers. I appreciate that you'd come for my aid, though!" He finished off the first topic at that, not expecting a reply to it and smiling at her, even letting out a slight chuckle. To get to the amusement park, they have to walk a little bit through a city, but since Hiro was leading the way, he took a shorter detour route which took both him and Yoko through what seems to be a beautiful park filled with pink cherry blossom trees, regular green leaved trees and just overall pretty scenery. It was more like a tourist attraction than a place to spend time at, since it wasn't big, but it was quite the pretty view. Before they got there though, Hiro responds to Yoko's other remarks. "I do not have any plans just yet. I'm interested in learning a little bit of magic, but I figured I'll let it come to me on its own." And that's when they reach the entrance of this park. "Hey, do you- think we could... hold hands? It's a common human gesture that... friends do to each other!" He murmured out whilst blushing a bit deeper on his cheeks, trying to see what she would think of it, as he held out his right hand in a sheepish manner while looking at her, trying to see how she would respond to that.

In response to Yoko's question, Hiro shook his head. "I really don't know anyone that uses the field frequently like myself, I tend to avoid other people. It's been months and I still am slightly scared of some monsters, but I think it has to do with their abnormal sizes. And, uhm, I think I can run pretty fast! Never had it timed before because I don't think of it as a competition or a big achievement." He spoke his mind and responded to every question Yoko had, both of them now on the road into the city, which will take just a little bit of time. Hiro does get more comfortable and less nervous with Yoko, even though he already should've done so for a while now, as he, too, brings a new conversation topic up. "Do you have any sort of plans for when we get to second year?" He asks, curious to see if Yoko has anything planned for her future.

Well, I don't want to feel like I'm disturbing the scene between you and Seraphina in any way, plus even with quotes it might get a little confusing and weird to keep track of, especially if one of us leaves for a few days. Alternatively speaking, you could just make an amusement park thread and we use that instead, although I didn't plan on going there instantly, given how there's a specific route Hiro wanted to take.

I think we should just stay on our thread to make it easier to manage, but ultimately it's up to you which scene you wanna move where.

@JennyDK I just noticed you're gonna move to the city topic with Seraphina, don't we have to do the same thing with our scene? Not that I mind if we don't, just asking.

Hiro would walk as slow as needed just so that he doesn't go too far off up front, always walking beside the hopping zombie in pretty Chinese garments. He dismisses the first topic for now and continues talking about the clubs, as well as other things. Hiro lets out a slightly nervous chuckle, rubbing the back of his head with his left hand, whilst his right hand would be the closest to Yoko (or vice versa, depending on which side Yoko was on). "I suppose you could come watch! You could say I specialize in running. Though now that I'm saying it out loud, that sounds dumb. I don't do sports to build muscle or skills, I just like running, I suppose. I run the athletic field's course at least two times a day, it's refreshing." He says so, now both of them nearing the exit of the academy. He kept physically close to her but not too much, or to be in the way, and he also was looking at her instead of where he's walking, focusing on her eyes. Truth be told, he did get a little lost in them, even though they look dead. That's when he would get a small feeling in his heart, a positive bump, after which he would look up front again. That's when a streak of blush appears over his cheeks, slightly visible, but still definitely there.

For a moment, Hiro stares at her face and examines it, trying to see if she is wearing some sort of make-up or not, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Not that he is too fascinated by it, anyhow, since he positions himself next to Yoko and starts to very slowly walk on over to the exit gate of the academy. "Ahh, really? I wasn't even trying, thanks, hah!" He replies to her about how she called him not too shabby, a faint blush showing across his cheeks as he raises a hand to momentarily rub the back of his head with the tip of his fingers, closing his eyes a little as well. He waits on her to hop along at her own pace, replying to the topic about clubs. "The gardening one, huh? I have heard of it, yes. The club that us two were gonna form didn't exactly work out, plus it was a little silly, so I'm glad you found another club that you like. I'm in the sports club. Kind of nerdy, like me." He chuckles slightly as he finishes talking. He talks in quite an energetic and expressive manner, a way that Hiro isn't known to do so, but just this time seems to be a special occasion.

Hiro was indeed already there, knowing how Yoko is only able to hop around from place to place instead of properly walk. He stood there, his eyes fascinated by something in the sky at the moment, but just as Yoko slowly hops about towards him, he noticed her in the corner of his eyes and a bright smile makes an appearance on the stage, the stage in question being his face, more precisely his lips. To save her a few hops, he walked up to her in a slightly hurried manner. "Hey, Yoko! How's it going?" He asks, all the while he stared into her dead eyes for just a moment, only to stop because he leaned closer to her, in an attempt to hug her. Like always, he never minded the fact that she's a zombie, or that she's dead, or that there's anything ever wrong with her. To him, there's absolutely nothing wrong with her. "You look really nice." He mentions, although a bit more quietly since he was still hugging her, but eventually he let go after a few seconds to look at her properly, unless she had other things in mind.

"Okay, sounds good to me! I will meet you there!" Hiro replies in a hurried tone and then hangs up immediately after he finishes talking, placing his phone down and proceeding to do whatever to kill time. He even enabled a small timer to notify him, and once the timer goes off, he shuts off his TV and hops down from his bed, grabbing his deep gray suit jacket that is part of his original attire, using some brand cologne for men to spray on his shirt's collar once or twice, then walking off to the courtyard after locking his dorm room. It would take a minute or two for him to arrive, but would he be the first one there, or was Yoko already there?

Hiro seems a little surprised at how intrigued Yoko is at the idea, but nonetheless he's glad that she accepts the offer. "No, no, you don't need to bring anything! It's actually great that you've never been to one, I could show you a lot of fun things. It's going to be great. Meet you in an hour? Should I come over then, or will you?" He asks, sounding rather excited in the phone. Currently, he was sitting on his own bed that was made properly, dressed up in his usual attire as he dangles his legs off the side of it.

Hiro quickly responds to her question, not wasting a single second of Yoko's time. "I was wondering if you're free this evening? Thought we could do a little sightseeing of the city, uhh, together, maybe visit the, uhm, amusement park! Only if you're free, of course, no pressure!" He relayed his offer to her through the phone, wondering what she might respond with.

During whatever it is that Yoko @JennyDK is currently doing early in the day (although it is already past afternoon), she gets a call on her phone. If she checks who's calling, she notices that it's Hiro, or whatever she put his name to be on her phone. Usually she doesn't get a call from him because they meet in person, either during or after classes, but this time it must be something important! If Yoko responds, she gets to hear Hiro's voice over the phone. "Hey, uhm, Yoko, am I bothering?" That is all he would ask, waiting patiently for the zombie girl's response.

Then I suppose we could start that scene, if that's okay with you. I was thinking it starts with a phone call from Hiro, since she likes to be notified of visits beforehand, and just move on from there. Is Yoko's room a good starting point?

Of course I'm around and I've been wanting to make scenes, especially the one between Yoko and Hiro, I wanted to start it but then I was afraid I may not have enough time to respond every day like I used to, because I either forget or I'm too busy for it, so I just didn't want to be a disappointment ^^

I don't know, but as a hardcore Helltaker fan, I approve of your profile picture. Beelzebub is a great pick.

That's most likely what's gonna happen, I was thinking of that.

My hands are full right now, but maybe sometime soon I'll try to come up with something. Same goes to you, too, if you have any ideas. ^^

Oh I noticed those hints and it was quite cute and sweet indeed. It definitely wasn't subtle, it was just great and I honestly enjoyed every scene between Hiro and Yoko. Glad to know that you did, too!

It just never seemed to get anywhere (or I thought that it wouldn't get anywhere), at least from my perspective. I hope this doesn't sound like I was trying to rush things or quickly get to the point because I personally wouldn't like instantly jumping to conclusions as well. Just a feeling, is all! Nothing against you.

Yeah he was/is still, just don't know how comfortable you are with that so to not ruin things I never made Hiro do any big moves.

Smutty scenes are what I would like (along with wholesome romantic as a better option), yes, but I know more than anyone that that's not always possible, given the circumstances and characters, and most importantly peoples preferences. Just a kind of mood I've been in recently.

Good to know that there are scenes between us that stuck with you because you enjoyed them! Although my mind hasn't improved over the months and I still don't get good ideas for scenes, unless it involves something lewd (because that's pretty easy to come up with and also great for character development). Guess I've just been in a mood like that.

I would happily try and have some scenes to try and get the club to be active, it's not like I lost my characters or the ability to roleplay. The sad truth is that people lose interest overtime, some quicker than others, and you also gotta keep in mind that this is a one year old club (which is pretty impressive). That doesn't mean it should be abandoned or anything, it just means that it had its prime days. Thinking back to it, it's almost nostalgic, especially the classroom scenes. By now, surely every character moved up a class and those in third year graduated.
