You walked through the dorm in the near pitch-black. It was late, close to midnight, but you were starving. The only thing on your mind as you walked through the dimly lit hallways was a quick bite to eat from the fridge.
When you got to the ground floor, however, you discovered you weren’t the only one awake at this god-forsaken hour. Fuuka was meddling with something at the big table near the front door. A small drill whizzed as she put together multiple pieces. You remembered her talking about wanting to build a device like that. Something that could stun your enemies, making them easy to strike and go all-out on. It seemed like a good enough idea, electric magic did the same thing to shadows. And Aigis.
It lingered on your mind as you took out a cup of yogurt from the fridge. The more you thought about it, the more you realized that a machine like that would be incredible to have around. You decided to check it out. Plus, you showing up would probably put the mousy girl’s mind at ease. Someone else moving in the night was probably making her anxious. You walked towards Fuuka, making sure your footsteps were loud enough to make it seem like you weren’t trying to sneak up on her. The room was still quite dark though
“Hey Fuuka. Is that the stun gun you were talking about.”
You only noticed she had headphones in after you said it. She had a laptop in front of her, which illuminated her face, but there was no way she could see you. Figuring you’d only scare her if you got closer, you decided to walk away.
Right as a bolt of electricity shot out of the machine. It flashed briefly, hitting you perfectly in the chest. Your limbs locked up and you feel backward; luckily, the dorm’s soft couch was behind you. You still landed hard on your ass, but your head landed perfectly on the couch cushion. A bruised tailbone was much preferable to a concussion. Fuuka looked in your direction, but did she see you?
1) No. But she does need to get up to take a break, coming back to the couch you’re on. She sits on you unaware.
2) Fuuka did notice you. She may or may not mention that though as she starts to stand over you…
3) Fuuka saw what happened. She somehow manages to get you into her room.
4) Fuuka didn’t see what happened. You are left in a prone position to be found by another person out for a midnight snack. (May or may not be unaware)
