[A couple hours go by, and the sun peeks over the horizon. Yuume kneels down and quietly speaks,] “I-It would probably be a good time to wake up…if you want to…it’s okay if you don’t…”

[Chase is the first to fully wake up, stretching before bouncing on his feet.] “Hello! I’ve seen you in the halls before, you’re Yuume, right?” [He whispers, or at least tries to.]

“O-Oh…y-yes, that’s me…”

“Sweet! I’m Chase! That’s Shiyuu over there,” [He points to Shiyuu, who is groggily sitting up and rubbing the sleep out of their eyes.] “Over there is James, that’s Yuna, and I assume you’ve already spoken to Lewis given your conversation last night.”

“You…heard us…?” [Yuume shrinks back, caught off guard by his enthusiastic attitude so early in the morning.]

“Mhm! Oh! Good morning, guys!” [Chase spins around to face the rest of the group.]

“Hhhnnnggggg….what time is it…?” [Shiyuu asks, their dual-colored eyes squinting as they adjust to the morning light.]

“I-It’s about six in the morning…?”

[Shiyuu huffs, not out of annoyance but more out of…processing the fact that they’re alive and conscious. Their hair is a mess, but in an endearing sort of way. Such is the charm of the magicless humans (Yuna included heh).]

[Shiyuu runs up to your party.] “Aaah! Finally, someone stable!” [they dust off their clothes before continuing.] “Mind if I uh…join you guys? I don’t have much, but…but I can fight!”

[They show the satchel of small rocks with a slingshot, and the broom on their back.] “I also have supplies if you guys need some…O-Oh, and I’m Shiyuu by the way! I-In case you didn’t know that…”

(not forced ofc :3 -mod!yuu)

*Lewis looks a bit alarmed, but James and Yuna seem relieved*

Thank the Seven there's someone else around here who's normal-

JAMES? How do we know we can trust- wait a minute... Your eyes!!! They're... Not totally loopy...

*Lewis relaxes a bit and Yuna rolls her eyes*

Don't mind them, they're a bit on edge from this whole.... *She gestures around here* situation...

You're more than welcome to hang with us. Even if you couldn't fight, I can't really leave someone to fend for themselves in this kinda situation, y'know?

Anyways. The name's Yuna. The frantic guy in the beanie is Lewis and the guy with the fancy tie is-

And I can introduce myself, thank you very much. James Ratt. It's a pleasure, although I do wish we were introduced during better circumstances

*James presses forward and extends a hand before Yuna sighs*

James, we don't have time for this.

Anyways, he is right that it's a pleasure to meet you but... Also there are way better ways we could've gotten acquainted.

Eh. But there's no use thinking about it. Pleasure to have you with us, Shiyuu.
