[ It's easier in the "day", something marked only the time on his phone now, to push aside the urge to infect anyone else, and so he busies himself with keeping himself busy in ways that aren't detrimental to the health of others.
Such as, well— what really catches his attention is the haunted house, and he taps his chin as he stares at it. All through the month he'll be dressed in black, usually long-sleeves, though sometimes bandages will poke out and show; his hair up, a matching black ribbon keeping it in place. He's contemplating going in, but... he... can't enter without an invitation........
Wait, maybe— he's gonna head over to literally anyone who looks like they're about to go in alone, hand settling light on their shoulder. ]
Ah, wait just one moment... Would you mind inviting me along? It's dangerous to go alone, after all. ♪ That's what every horror movie has implied, non?
(b - night)
(i)
[ As the day turns over, time ticking to the later hours... your character feels watched. No matter where they go, there's a pair of eyes on them. Go inside, and it doesn't diminish, though you might catch a darker shadow against the window before it disappears, presumably having decided you were too much trouble... but the feeling that someone's watching, waiting, won't go away. Deciding to confront this, or waiting too long, earns the reward of Wataru with his hands spread palm up, looking a mix of delighted and surprised. ]
Did I give you a fright...? Forgive me, this Wataru Hibiki simply loves the season... ♪
[ Which isn't untrue, technically, but there's a predatory look in his eyes.
Might be worth it to do something. ]
(ii)
[ Other times, later into the night, you might see the shadow of a young man, evidently fighting off something, or someone—but going to be a hero reveals there's nothing there in the alley, and it's a dead-end to boot. A bat swoops down and around, squeaking softly. Annoying, but evidently the only thing here... though turning your attention from it for even a moment means hearing the steady thump of dress shoes on the ground, and a soft laugh from behind you. It's only Wataru though, smiling cheerfully, even with his fingers bandaged up. ]
Incredible, isn't it? What one can do with a shadow, [ he says softly, stepping closer. There's a dangerous edge to his tone and, oh
oh, yes, those are fangs, when he smiles a little wider. Hope you didn't turn your back on your exit, lest you be trapped with an apparent vampire. ]
(c - wildcard)
[ In the vampire/mummy/shade group and want some bonding? Anything else on the event log that looked good? Etc? Hit this. By the way, for prompt b's options, mention which of the three you'd like to be infected with; if you'd rather have your character fight him off successfully (it shouldn't be too hard, he's fairly normal, his ballet training aside), then note that! Either is good and fun with me... etc.
I can be contacted over on plurk atgalaxydestiny too, for any plotting needs! o7 ]
rayne, 10/10
the excuse is to talk to her about a part in a production he thinks she'd do well in. the real reason is the droning voice in his mind that tells him to infect someone else, now that it's been a few days and he's itching to do it, again, despite whatever feelings he might have towards it. he'd had the bit (ha) with miai a little earlier this week on sunday, and seeing him in class gives him equal parts distress and relief.
he turns his cheerful look on her when she's the last one left, winking with a small laugh. ]
Soleil, aujourd'hui tu s'est bien comportée! [ with a little clap, fingers spotted with band-aids. patience, patience; what he learned from hunting miai was that, at least. ] And you don't let a little commentary get you down for long either! Ah, I can't help but be a little proud of you...
gently returns from my illness
she bounds over to wataru when she's the last left, long braid swinging. ]
Thank you!! I think you're a wonderful teacher, I feel like I'm learning so much!!
slowly shoves soup at you
[ and they will either fight harder to swim, or they will sink and drift out of class.
but anyway!! ]
With such good progress and can-do attitude, I think you'd do well in a winter production... You've heard of The Nutcracker, non?
slowly eats the soup :(
[ ergo, A BIG DEAL, because people outside of her dance friends will know what the fuck she is talking about. ]

nazuna, some time later in the month (dates WHOM)
has been avoiding him
after work, almost all month.
nazuna is one of his friends and, while wataru intimately understands the reason, he can't help but be a little hurt, either. still, he knows there are days nazuna stays a little later, even if he hasn't managed to catch him at one— until lucky, lucky today. wataru rests against his classroom door, the children having left already. good, because he'd never want to scare them... he smiles, just with his lips, and raises his hand in greeting. ]
Salut, lapin charmant, ton Wataru Hibiki a arrivée.
dates are for QUITTERS (or wataru and miai)
by the end of the month, he is more than aware that things in recolle are strange. he's been picked up and nested with and managed to get away from that scott free, he's avoided his friends who were infected, and has practically gotten his get to work don't interact with anyone but the kids go home lock self in room routine down pat. he's an expert at keeping himself safe! he is!
right until he's not.
his door's supposed to be locked at the end of the day, and the custodian said he'd be right back, he just needed to pick up a new mop. it was just going to be a few minutes, but a few minutes had turned into ten and fifteen and he'd been so busy grading papers that he didn't even notice someone come in until it was too late.
which means-- ] Unya!! [ he leaps half of a foot out of his seat, papers scattering as his hands catch on the table. oh god. oh god oh god. ] Wha-whahuh-Whatarushin!!
they're outings not dates miai said so
Did I scare you~? ♪ Pardonnes-moi, lapin. [ that was entirely his intention but, ] May I come in, or are you going to keep your good friend out in the cold?
[ what cold. ]
ok
hhh. what a predicament. ] Um--! I was just getting ready to go home. [ though the giant stack of papers next to him, that might not be the case. nazuna laughs, a little higher pitched than usual. ] Sho--! I should get goin'!
[ Panic ]
no subject
[ something he is far too aware of given his, condition, and he has been doing his best to control it, but purpose, purpose... he smiles kindly, glancing at the papers. ]
...Are you bringing your date, or are you going to leave them unfinished?
no subject
he sighs, starting to gather up the cutesy, crayon covered papers and put them in his bag. maybe if he keeps wataru busy things won't be weird. ] Can you grab the papers in the rainbow cart? You can just take the drawer out.
[ there are a Lot of papers. ]
no subject
there are a lot of papers and he pauses, ah... just how many are there...? he carefully counts them, oddly. terribly. focused in leafing through them with his fingertips. ]
b.ii 1/2
so, alas, he's going to have to rush into danger and try to be a hero. (what exactly he thinks he's going to do if neither the assailant nor the victim can see or hear him, either? ...if that had occurred to him, it's probably something he would have tried to figure out!)
anyway, now he's here. but... no one else... is?
...crisis averted! maybe.
so he turns around, and... ]
Yeek!!
2/2
Oh.
My god.
Hooooo...
You startled me.
[ yeah, jamie never actually got this dude's name, but he recognizes him--he was standing next to that window, sparkling. and then they talked on the Retrospec post about ghosts or whatever. and... apparently, to jamie... the fact that he recognizes a person automatically means they're no longer a threat?
...anyway.
here they both are.
and of course, to supernatural eyes, jamie's perfectly visible. (and audible. and tangible. and so forth.) ]
no subject
I wish I could apologize, but I'm not entirely sorry!
[ even before this whole, uh, monster thing, he liked messing with people, so, ]
If it had done some grave [ haha ] damage to you, I would, mais ce n'est un cas.
no subject
Well, no harm done, I suppose.
So...
[ he glances around the alley again, puzzled. ]
...Are you all right? I thought someone was fighting.
no subject
[ ...it rises separate of him again, large and hulking. a little scary, with wataru's cheerful, too wide grin beside it. ]
A wonderful partner, non? Performing a scene has never been easier ♪
no subject
yeah, that's pretty scary ]
Oh.
So you were sort of just...
[ "luring me in" sounds a bit self-important.
"baiting a trap" would be such an ugly accusation.
"having a laugh" is twee and ridiculous. ]
...playing a trick? Ahahahahh...
You totally got me!
...By the way. I never introduced myself, did I?
Pardon my rudeness. I'm Jamie. ...Doh.
A
[ Last Girl and all. ... Said the 40 year old. Who looks a lot younger? That said, yeah. She does stop from going into the mansion to turn to face the young man and ... well, she is a real vampire. She's more than a little wary of strangers, but hey, this guy doesn't look like someone she couldn't take, so. ]
no subject
Oui, mais d'autre part, in more modern adaptions going alone spells trouble, doesn't it? And as it's no longer the nineties, it may be worth partnering up. [ and she seems... interesting. he smiles easily down at her, ducking his head slightly. ] Petite mademoiselle, do me the honor?
