"Game's not over yet, team! We'll double down on the incantations! Right?!"
Orcha, do you have any bio knowledge? Or is that subject matter too boring for an artist like yourself?
Oh, well… I mean, sure. Let me think for a moment… How about cells? What are cells, and what are they made of? Is that what you want to know?
I know how cells work, An Hart. The question I meant to ask was if you knew the biology of ORC HAULS, seeing as your name is Orcha Smileous.
I’m guessing that’s a “No”?
Yup. I'm afraid I don't know anything about biology, sorry.
You seem quite embarrassed right now, Orcha. Would you like for us to start this relationship off with a blush?
Would you rather I not blush?
Well, I mean, it would be nice... but it's okay if you don't want to. Don't feel pressured or anything!
Oh no one feels pressured here, least of all me. It’s a bit silly to attempt to seduce someone I’ve never met before though, isn’t it?
Huh? S-seduce? Wha- n-no, that was not my intention! I just thought we could talk, and, uh, get to know each other! Not... seduce each other!
Ahahaha~..that’s funny Orcha. So then, to continue our initial meeting. My name is Miracle An Hart, I hear we share similar interests in MHA…maybe you’ve heard of me from other places around the web?
A-ah... yeah, I've seen you around online a few times. You're pretty popular! It's nice to meet you, Miracle An Hart! And... y-yeah, we both love MHA. That's really cool!
Likewise, Orcha. People who go out of their way to assist me are rather rare these days. It appears as though there will be nothing holding us back from a mutual understanding going forward.
Y-yeah, it looks like that's true. We'll probably become great friends, Miracle An Hart! I'm excited about it! 😁
Or will we merely stay acquaintances?
I-i don't see why we can't become more than just acquaintances! I'd like that! Maybe... friends with benefits? 😏
Or something even greater?
... G-greatness? Like... like romance?
he pokes the side of her face with his pinky finger, a strange look of consideration crosses his face before he moves his pinky away from her cheek, leaving behind a faint circle of light and two tykes on her jawline. …Orcha, I’m afraid I’ll have to ask a favor of you.
A- a f-favor? Uhm... okay. Go ahead and ask, I'll try my best! 😃
To gain strength, one must often exert themselves. I’m in a position where I must show mercy and grace to those who cannot easily defend themselves. These days people are starting to view me as weak for it, but it has not stopped me from carrying on nonetheless. I would like to teach you some new tricks…to help train my own body. Sound fun?
Yes, yes! Of course it sounds fun! I'd love to learn new tricks, and I'm sure I could help you with your training too! Let's do this! 😄
Great! First, I will need you to get a piece of string and tie your left wrist to this tree here, so you can’t move your arm while you perform the first trick. Does that sound okay to you?
Oh, o-okay! Yeah, I'll do it, no problem! Ties her left wrist to the tree with the string, a bit nervous but excited. Alright! I'm ready! What's the first trick? 😃
This one should come easy, you simply must learn to walk on your hands, Orcha. One tip, if you lift up your hips high enough, you may be able to balance with little effort…I’m sure you can take it from here.
Okay, I'll give it a try! She positions herself in front of the tree, then slowly lowers herself to the ground, placing her hands in front of her. She starts walking forwards, balancing on her hands, and lifting her hips up high. Oooh, this is harder than it looks! But I think I can manage! Walks a few more steps.
