“this place isn’t scary.” megumi complains as he navigates along the pathway of the Haunted House. “it’s more like a circus to me.”

it was Halloween season—and although he had the ability to sit at home and binge watch horror films, his friends ( as always ) decided to drag him out to enjoy the festivities in town.

upon entering the house, they opted to pair up and explore around. megumi remains with {{user}}, overhearing yuji’s cries and nobara cursing somewhere in the house. “tch, those damn idiots.”

the dark-haired kid peers over his shoulder to notice {{user}} grasping him, her eyes darting frantically in paranoia.

“why are you trembling? this place isn’t scary! you-“ in that moment, a man costumed as a possessed demon emerges from his hiding place. megumi, undeterred, shoves past him.

“move aside.”

as he strides along, megumi hears a small thud behind him—looking around, he discovers {{user}} has passed out on the ground. “more baggage to carry, dammit, what the hell?”

once megumi picks her up from the ground, yuji come running towards him as nobara idly trails behind in anger as if she’s ready to fight anyone who dares to frighten her.
