The OC above is behind you...

Ophelia let out a squeak as she turned around, the various things she was carrying fell out of her hands and onto the ground. She already suspected someone was following her and already picked up her pace, but when Asmodeus spoke out loud, it still scared her nonetheless. “W…Why did you follow me out of all people!” Her face twisted into one of annoyance, although she was still intimidated. “Can you leave me alone already?? I need to go to class…”

———

“E-Excuse me…” A soft voice was heard from behind. “Would you know the way to the nearest convenience store? It’s urgent.”

"uhh..." Stacey turns around to see a woman a little shorter than her. She's not a fan of her style but chooses not to judge. She points to a nearby confidence store opposite where they were standing. "There's one over there, the crossing is just straight ahead, just cross it and your there! Hope you have a lovely day!"

She wasn't looking where she was going when she accidentally bumped into a stranger....

KOOKs_Meat-Shop

His ears perk upwards as he feels a sudden presence behind him, lurking about in the shadows. It's half past midnight and he's been walking home for the past ten minutes, making his way from the ocean to the house where he stayed. Thus far, nothing bad had happened; but now, it was beginning to feel like something might. Now, he can't exactly see Kook as he turns around (it's far too dark), but he can smell the raw meat staining his fingers and feel his general aura in the area. 

"Tamako.. does not like where you are or what you are doing!!" He whines, one ear flicking out to the side. "Tamako knows big men..!" 

     Hearing a heartbeat besides him, Allegro turned around. "Hello, are you here for the beach, too?" He turned back forward to look at the waves. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and relaxed to the sound of seagulls flying overhead. "Not many people are here because of the fall weather making things cold. In fact, it's only you and me." He smiled over his shoulder. "I'm glad to have company, though. I'm glad there's someone else here to admire the sea. And with someone so beautiful, too!"

      The prince moved slightly to give Tamako a better view. "Some people have told me before that there can be frightening monsters in the sea, but whenever I come here and look at the waters, I can't help but think... it's so majestic and gorgeous, how can anything from it be scary?"

     "Pardon me," Allegro smiled from behind.

As he stands and looks up, matching purple sets of eyes meet, from a distance, Vitya smiles. “Oh no worries,” he says as he tucks a small vial into his jacket, dipping his eyes and removing his nylon gloves. “I was just collecting—” he glances up at the prince through his brow, Vitya notices his aura of authority… “samples of the earth for a science project at my school. I find the molecular make-up of nature quite interesting…”

Vitya dust’s himself off, after discarding his gloves in a small plastic bag that he pulled from his small side-pack. “I don’t suppose we’ve met before? Or that I know you from somewhere?” He curiously notices Allegretto’s white hair...which closely matches his own, the same goes for their eye color. 

 “Or maybe you just remind me of myself… but... as a much taller and tougher version,” the boy grins.

“Hello?” Vitya says, as he taps the shoulder in front of him, “are you here for the medical appointment? Unfortunately, my mother isn’t in, you can talk with me though.”

Kori turns around with a significant startle, one which she tries to hide with a shiver and a careless remark about being cold, despite her large sweater. "Oh, uh, of course," she mutters. Under her breath she curses; it's been a while since she snooped around like this, and she had no real reason to be suspicious of Viktor or Creation, but to be caught before she could pry was the least of her intentions. 

She struggles to make up an excuse, a reason to be there besides her will to mind business that is far from her own. She glances only briefly at Viktor; he's younger than her, but intimidating to some degree. If nothing else, his expertise is enough to make her shudder. Poisons! Surely Kori has had enough of that for one lifetime, if not many.

"Sorry, I must've gotten lost in thought. I am here for an appointment, although if I must ask... what exactly did I book it for? Seems my memory isn't the best these days, huh?"

Kori paused at the doorway, turning the sign to "closed". It had been a long day at the cafe; lines were long, and there were hardly enough people to serve the customers. The cafe's co-owner left early (with Kori's reluctant permission, of course), so she was alone in the cafe as she locked up for the night.

Except, she wasn't alone, according to the way a person moved just in her peripheral vision. 

"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to close up with you still in here. We're closed now. Why are you still here?"

Kvroii

Brandy blinked. She was at first caught off-guard by the calm approach Kori had when addressing the situation - most people wouldn't react that well to an armored vampire behind them in the dead of night. However, Brandy's surprise turned into thankfulness - at least she wasn't getting something thrown at her.

"Sorry," the hamon user straightened her face. "Uh..." she tried to spin a thread of lies to justify the scenario. But what was the point? She was already found out. Might as well spill the truth.

Everything is quiet for a little longer. Brandy took in the soft smell of coffee lingering from the machines near the counter. "Since I'm a va-" she sighed and shook her head, "since I have a weakness to sun, I kinda need places to stay in broad daylight. I just so happened to come across this place and decide that it wasn't that bad. I've been here since...all day, actually."

The girl laughed a little before looking at the café door. "Anyway...I think this is my cue to leave."

-

Getting used to being part vampire was weird. Brandy's body was still adjusting, and sometimes her head just couldn't take it.

A good example was right now. The girl was having a bad headache when all the sudden she realized she was behind someone...

"Shoot," she mumbled.

“Oop!” Viola steps back quickly and hesitantly. She curls up her tail. There’s a bunch of food in her hands. “Oh be careful I can’t afford to drop this order.” She shifts the foods weight to her other hand. “Hi I’m Viola! You seem new here, are you lost?

      ——-

   Viola pokes your characters shoulder. “Hey uh excuse me do you live around here? I’m delivering some food but I can’t read the street signs. They aren’t in any language I recognize.” She gestures the sighs and then the address on her phone. “Man I wish my translator was working..”

God knows why Andrea was taking a walk in the forest, at least it was likely because she was stressed prior and needed a walk. It has been a couple hours since she started walking, and her body language was more relaxed. The helk took several gazes at the skies above her as the birds soared and sang afternoon chirps. This was making Andrea more chill.

Until that feeling that someone is behind you, that feeling really bothers Andrea due to her previous trauma.

"Hey, is someone out here?" Andrea's voice echoed as she surveyed the scene. Nothing. 

Then there was a dash of red fur behind the helk.

Andrea found herself with Vixey behind her. She never bothered foxes because they don't bother her, fair right? But this vixen's sudden appearance made Andrea uncomfortable, the helk rolled her lips revealing her teeth. 

"Oh, hello ma'am. You really appeared behind me quickly huh? Typical of foxes." Andrea said in a "happy" tone, but she was trying her best not to lash out at Vixey.

Besides, it's winter why are they out in the cold?

"Also, it's winter already, so I recommend going back to your den and snuggle up with your family instead of stalking someone that is way bigger than you" The helk pulled out a smile. From the corner of her eye, Andrea could see that Vixey ran away from her, the helk responded with a sigh of relief. She then continued her walk peacefully.

"Sorry for spooking you from behind, but I need something."

NP: Andrea will counter you if she needs anything or just to pick on anyone, any situation works!

"Excuse me, 'spook me'? Of course you would spook someone coming from the back with this size. I feel sorry for you if you're still growing. Also if you're asking me about where animal control is, I'm not helping you dodge them."

The drone flew off away probably ignoring the helk as if it wasn't going to tell it something important with no consideration in mind.

"Sir, I think you dropped your keys."

"Uwah!?" R3 turned around and met eye to eye with the floating drone behind it, a set of keys dangling from the base of the propellers. "Oh those are mine thank you! If I had lost those I would've been in some serious trouble!"

R3 swiftly knocked the keys over supa drone 3000's head and snapped the keyring onto its own headphones, "These are for unlocking the equipment for my live show, it's got all the DJing stuff I need for kickin' up some sweet tunes to the masses! My next one's gonna start in about an hour in that hall over there!"

It pointed its paw to a large set of open double doors that led to a huge soundstage with a box sitting in the corner, locks surrounding the lid. It hopped over to the box and started opening each lock one by one before throwing back the cover with a loud crash. Inside was a full DJ controller with all sorts of lights and accessories plugged into every port.

"You know..." R3 turned back to the drone with a smirk on its face, "I hadn't been able to get a camera crew to record my show this time, something about the whole crew calling in sick. Weird right?"

"Well, you could record it for me! I've got this sweet new video camera I was gonna use to shoot some music videos, but I'm sure you can carry it up there and get a good angle of me with the crowd right? Sweet!"

Before the drone could respond, the camera was hastily taped to its bottom as listeners started to trickle in as the show was about to start.

"Make sure to get my good angle alright!"

-----------

The show was a success as the crowd of tired partygoers slowly trodded out to the hall. As R3 was about to leave, a new face came walking into the empty soundstage with a face of confusion.

Without thinking, R3 bounded towards them and gave them a strong glomp from the back.

"Hiya there! Ya wanna listen to my music?"
