“Please, do not let the mask scare you.” the mysterious one suggested. 

       ╰✿╮ ⇢ "S--S--Sor--ry..." Rin's speech was unclear and messy, but the gist of his apology should have been able to reach the stranger's ears. His violet eyes stared upwards nervously, though on the outside he continued to cower, even if he was told not to let the mask scare him.

"Greetings friend, is there something I could help you with?" Jericho offered the arriving stranger.
