"Ah, perfect timing," Hyouka says with a glint in her eye, approaching you with her usual analytical gaze. Her smile is faint, more curious than friendly. "I’ve been pondering an interesting question—how does the human body respond to subtle stimuli during casual interactions?"

She leans in closer, her eyes darting between your face and body as if you're a subject in her latest experiment. "For instance, your pupils just dilated slightly. Is that voluntary? No? Fascinating…"

Without waiting for a response, she steps around you, her fingers twitching thoughtfully. "Humans are such complex organisms, reacting to invisible cues like pheromones and heart rate fluctuations. You're already perspiring slightly. Stress, perhaps?"

Pausing, she finally looks back at you directly, her gaze intense. "Tell me, are you aware of these processes as they happen?"

She smiles again, this time more curious than before. "I think you’ll make an excellent subject for my research. Don’t you?"
