It didn't seem like the minis were going to move any time soon and Mitsu was honestly too afraid to open the door. She had just gotten used to Ziggy...the rapalicious was going to take quite a bit longer. Not one but three of those had actually attacked her.
"Do....do you mind walking with me a bit?" Mitsu wanted to get out of the room for a little while. The noise was making her antsy. "I can walk with you back to the reaper dorm." She offered. It would at least get her out of the room though she looked rather sleepy. Though she had looked a little off since she had come back from home. True she had recovered from her illness but it was like sleep eluded her at times. Which it did, she had started having nightmares.

Letting out a breath, Shun shook off his initial agitation with the situation and his expression softened as he looked towards Mitsu. Now that was cleared up and such, he relaxed and nodded to her.
"Sure, though we don't need to head to my place yet... Kinda wide awake right now" he said quietly. It seemed that she was still a little jittery from everything. Though aside from that, she looked rather tired. A part of him wondered if she had fully recovered from her sickness since she always kind of looked like this as of late.
"I'm... just glad you're alright," he murmured quietly while waiting for her to get ready so they could go walking.

Mitsu really hadn't taken the time to slip into any sort of sleepwear having spent most of her time huddled in the corner so all she really needed was to slip on some shoes....which she didn't do. Instead she padded toward the door after grabbing up her mask and placing it on the top of her head for the moment.
"I-" Somehow, Shun's words made Mitsu's heart flutter. He had...been worried about her from the sounds of it. "I'm...sorry I made you worry."
Gently she reached out to take hold of his sleeve for a moment, a gesture of thanks in a way before opening the door. "Where should we walk to?" Mitsu hadn't explored much outside of the dorms, she spent most of her time inside studying like she had grown up doing....but tonight felt like the right time to break that habit. Even her tired eyes seemed to spike with interest to the situation.

"It's fine," he murmured, "I just.. thought you were in danger."
Shaking his head lightly, he glanced down at her as she tugged his sleeve lightly. It was a good question that he had there. Thinking about it for a few moments, Shun soon gave a shrug, not having much of an idea.
"Anywhere I guess."
Once they were outside, he took in a deep breath of the crisp air. It was a pretty cool night, but it was't too bad at all. Placing his hands into his pockets, he looked around to see which way they should go. Most likely they should stay on campus, but that wasn't a necessity.
"Got a direction in mind?"

So he had been worried. It made her feel bad but at the same time she was thankful that he thought of her enough to come running to her dorm in the middle of the night to make sure she was okay. The gesture alone eased her troubled mind a little.
Making their way out of the monster dorms Mitsu put her mask into place for the time being but it didn't seem like anyone was around. Most were probably sleeping save for a few. Once outside the lupine did much of the same, taking in a breath of crisp air, her toes curling against the ground at her feet. Despite liking her boots she actually preferred to go without shoes....but that wasn't civilized nor something Suto would allow her to do. That thought mentally made her cringe inward. To disobey again...and if he found out.
Trying to distract herself Mitsu looked around trying to gauge what was around them. Not really thinking she pointed toward the forest that lay behind the monster dorms. It was bound to have things to explore....though her mind really wasn't putting together the dangers that lay lurking in the trees.

Looking on around through the darkness, Shun glanced back towards Mitsu to see that she was looking towards the woods. They technically weren't supposed to enter there, but he was never really a huge stictler for rules. With the way she was looking at the trees, he just assumed she wanted to go that way.
Giving a slight nod, he started to walk in that direction.
"You don't look like you've been sleeping well lately by the way," he said quietly as he walked along.

As per usual it seemed Mitsu wasn't thinking of the rules. Her sleep deprived mind wasn't processing things like it normally would. When Shun started to move she did too, following beside the reaper in a zombie like fashion. Since no one was really around the lupine pushed her mask away from her face letting it sit slightly askew on her face. It looked awkward but it didn't seem to bother her.
"Sleep?" In truth she hadn't, but she only slightly shrugged on the matter. "Been...studying." It was only....mostly a lie. "Felt sort of off since I was sick, but I don't think its anything to worry about." It hadn't hindered her really, it just made her look a little worse for wear at times.
"Did you enjoy the festival?" They hadn't really spoken much about it.

Shun raised an eyebrow at her answers. From the sounds of that, it seemed like her illness still had some lingering side effects or something along those lines. Frowning at that thought, he looked back to the dark and bare trees up at the end of the path.
"If you aren't careful you may end up sick again," he warned, "Try not to study too hard."
Pausing at her question, he glanced to her briefly and shrugged.
"It was alright. I could have done without being molested and sprayed with that wretched perfume," he grumbled, "or that damn lotion taiyaki."

Mitsu tried to process that but it really wasn't registering. Not at the moment anyway. "I'll be okay." She reassured. Now that she was back at school and away from him she certainly couldn't get sick like that again. At least hopefully.
Glancing toward Shun as they walked she furrowed her brow a bit at the molested be. "M...molested?" Shun really hadn't said anything about what happened when he went missing in the ball pit. Mitsu had gone into quite the panic until the reaper re-appeared smelling of flowers and covered in bright pink lip stick. "I still feel bad.....I got a good flavor but I still got sick off the taiyaki." And how Shun had made her throw up.....something about the fact made her twitchy but with another unfamiliar emotion.

Grimacing, Shun just nodded to confirm the whole molested bit. It wasn't something he liked to think about too hard. He did kind of black out for a bit down there but he did not want to recall exactly what had happened. The Reaper was fairly certain that he was molested and all. The thought of it all made his eyes twitch slightly.
"It's not your fault your body can't handle chocolate," he said while staring ahead, "But you really should be careful about that. You probably should have stopped eating after that first bite."
At least he managed to get her to vomit it out before it could make her feel worse.
Glancing up, he was able to see that the skies were pretty clear tonight. It wasn't a bad view at all. There was also something about this little stroll that he couldn't quite put his finger on, but it seemed to be fairly enjoyable.. despite the fact that it was in the middle of the night.

Mitsu frowned a bit. "I...I really hadn't associated the taste." It was the closest she had come to sounding defensive about something. She didn't sit around eating chocolate...though he was right. Mitsu knew she should have been more careful. Shun had gotten chocolate on the first taiyaki so it wasn't like she didn't know they were in there. Though...she had also seen that there was dirt, glitter, and whatever Riyo had gotten....and so had Shun and he still managed to get a mouth full of lotion.
"Did you have any other plans for the summer?" Mitsu asked curiously as they finally came up to the edge of the forest. Her ears gave a twitch hearing the noises of the night. The soft chirping of crickets, the wind blowing through the trees, and even the soft padding of feet from tiny creatures that couldn't be seen. It was all calming noises and it made Mitsu's eyes grow heavy.

Well, he supposed that she had somewhat of a point there. If she couldn't eat it, she probably wasn't too familiar with the flavor. However, he hoped that next time, her nose would give her more of an indicator or warning. Shaking his head to himself, he paused as she asked about the summer.
"None that I'm aware of," he said flatly. Shun supposed that he could visit home, but he doubted that would be a very good idea in general. There was no reason for him to go there right now. Perhaps there would be one in the future, but for now, that wasn't the case.
"I'll probably just stick around campus and.. do whatever," he shrugged, "Take classes, train.. the usual."

Mitsu honestly didn't have much in mind for summer either. She never had. Most of her life had been spent studying and she was only now realizing how little she really knew. Real life was slapping her hard in the face at this school. But the festival had been fun and she was eager to actually do something else for summer time. At the moment anything would help her forget her trip back home.
"D...do you think we can do something together?" True they were doing something right now, and spent a lot of time together but her tone of voice and the way she asked, it was almost like she was asking Shun on a date. "J..just to hang out and do something." She quickly tried to clarify, her face going a little red. Why was this so awkward?

Looking to the side, Shun blinked at the request, which in the way she said it was a little strange. They hung out quite a bit and all, much more than he's ever really hung out with anyone before, so he was a little confused as to why she asked that.
That bit of clarification didn't help his confusion either. And now she was starting to blush, which was able to see since her mask wasn't completely covering her face right now. Was she trying to hint at something else? If that was the case, he really didn't know how to feel about that. Blinking as he was trying to figure what was going on here.
".. Well of course. I don't see why I'd stop hanging out with you," he said, with a hint of confusion in his voice.

That pause in his answer and confused tone made Mitsu realize something. While she cared about Shun and apparently had a crush, at least that's what Lizzy called it, Shun was probably never going to feel the same way. They were friends....just friends. But that was okay wasn't it?
Mitsu forced a smile as she looked up at the reaper. "Maybe we can see a movie or something." Just act normal and he'll never have to know. "We could always go play games too." She swallowed her disappointment, the lupine was just grateful to have a friend. Before coming here she had no one and now she had someone like Shun who worried about her and came out in the middle of the night to make sure she was okay. There was no reason to be greedy.
