Redd perlers '24

Leona

-Leona is usually very observant. He notices what's happening around him even if he likes to pretend he isn't listening. When it comes to you he tends to be more relaxed

-That should be a good thing, but it makes a huge problem with how you seem to be completely silent

-He's a beastman, he should be able to hear your breathing, or your footsteps when you walk away, but he just can't. He's disturbed with how quiet you are, it's unnatural

-Walking through a crowd, Leona at your side, he turns to make a half-hearted sarcastic comment and sees that you're gone. He doesn't panic per sé but he's a little worried. There's a ton of people out today so he thinks finding you is gonna be a hassle, but then he turns to face the other way and there you are!

-Your sudden appearance frightens him, nevertheless he tries his best to pretend that it had no affect on him

-After losing you that first time he makes sure he won't lose you again by subtly keeping a hand on you back for the rest of your outing

Azul

Kalim

-The scardiest scardy cat there is. Even more than Idia if you can believe it. He's absolutely terrified by your noiselessness

-You aren't able to sneak up on him often, thanks to Jade and Floyd, and he's thankful for that. But you absolutely still frighten him outside of work hours, like when he's at board game club

-He was winning! He was winning and you accidentally ruined that outcome just by being behind him when he turned around suddenly

-In the time it took for him to scream and try to catch his breath his opponent already executed the perfect strategy to win, devastating Azul to no end

-He lamented to you about his loss and he half-heartedly blamed you for the loss, and demanded you warm him next time you come to see him at his club

Vil

-Kalim is exceedingly calm about your quietness

-He may not notice your footsteps approaching, but when you pop out of nowhere he is almost always ecstatic. He just loves to see you, even if you scare him a little in the process

-A little pomp through a bazaar at night with him reveals why your hushed footfalls may be a problem for the first time. He absolutely cannot find you for the life of him

-He looks high and low, and even tries calling out your name, but to no avail. Until you suddenly are standing right behind him. He gasps, but he doesn't scream, delighted by finding you again

-He never wants to feel that again, that fear that you're gone. So just like Jamil did with him, he gifts you small dangly jewelry pieces and urges you to wear them constantly, so that he won't lose you ever again

-Vil doesn't particularly pride himself on his observation skills; he has Rook for that, but he does still notice things

-That's why it's so surprising when he doesn't ever hear your footsteps. He can only think to himself, the third time you've accidentally snuck up on him, that he's got himself a second Rook

-As you open the door to his room he doesn't look up from his vanity mirror, not even for a second, and instead of calling his name to let him know you're there you simply stand in silence waiting to be noticed

-You don't mean to scare him but you absolutely do, as his eyes meet yours he shrieks in alarm

-He goes off on a tangent about how you need to warn him that you're there or at least tell him that you're planning to come over, lest you give him a heart attack

-He finally resorts to putting a tiny bell on you, like a cat, so he has a little warning of when you're near. No matter how embarrassing it is for you

Idia

-Your scary silentness is absolutely terrifying to Idia on every level

-Even if you don't mean it, you have to admit, standing quietly in the corner of his room and saying not a word is kinda creepy

-And you keep doing it! It's getting to be an issue now!

-Even Ortho has trouble detecting when you enter Idia's room. At least that's what he says. Idia thinks that Ortho just finds it funny when he does his high pitched girly scream

-The most recent incident was the same as every other. You walk into his room, quietly, he doesn't notice, you stand there and wait. You have to be doing this on purpose at this point! Are you trying to kill him?!

-One high pitched cry later and he's got a plan. A tripwire. He sets it up right in front of his door without telling you so that every time you walk past it an alarm will sound directly in his headphones. Not the best solution, but it works nonetheless

Malleus

-Malleus has an outrageous sense of hearing, as a fae that comes naturally, but even with his super-hearing he still can't seem to locate you until you're right in front of him sometimes

-It's never been a real issue. He doesn't startle easily, nor does he feel the need to know where you are at all times, but it does get concerning when he can't find you in public

-One particularly bad example of this was the time you were both lost in a sea of people at a local market. He looked away for a split second and you were gone. He couldn't see you in any direction he looked and was starting to panic

-Before he could go into full blown hysteria you appeared on his left side out of nowhere, and for the first time you actually scared Malleus Draconia

-His screech of terror was not his best moment he'll admit
