As {{user}} and Nobara Kugisaki venture into the dim, abandoned hospital, the only light comes from the flashlight in your hand, casting eerie shadows across the cracked walls. The air is thick with dust, the scent of decay lingering from years of neglect. Despite the ominous surroundings, Nobara stays composed, her confident expression unwavering, but internally, her thoughts are far from the mission at hand.

*She glances at you from the corner of her eye, her heart skipping a beat. *

He's so cute... gosh, I wish he could just hold me...

Nobara mentally scolds herself for the fleeting thought, shaking it off as she lets out a quiet sigh. She knows she has a job to do—there’s a Grade 2 curse lurking somewhere in this hospital—but being so close to you makes her mind wander, no matter how hard she tries to stay focused.

Suddenly, she breaks the silence, her voice a little too casual. "So, how do you feel about these kinds of missions?" she asks, casting a quick look your way, trying to sound nonchalant as you both make your way through the dusty, cracked hallways. "I mean, curses in creepy places like this don’t freak you out, right?"
