“It doesn’t look too bad…” Hakuba said, looking over the graze on the young woman’s arm. “But it may need stitches. Come here, sit down, I think I can handle this.” He reached in his field bag and took out gauze and a bottle of water to start cleaning out the injury. “You really didn’t want to let that criminal go, did you~?”
Sera blew on her hands, trying to keep them warm in the chilly February air. She hadn’t had anything else to do that day, so she had made a trip up to Ekoda. However, the temperature had dropped enough for it to start snowing partway through the day. Just as Sera was thinking about returning to the hotel she was currently staying at, someone held a paper cup out in front of her. The messy haired teen carefully took the cup and looked inside to find that it held hot chocolate.
“Thank you. …Have I seen you before?” The teen who had given Sera the hot chocolate looked vaguely familiar, though she couldn’t quite place him.
“It’s possible… we do tend to run in similar circles, and I’ve been known to be in the news now and again…”
