What?? Are you okay, Haku???
Come meet me at the courtyard and I'll show you
... you'll show me? Your stalker?
As you hurriedly walk towards the courtyard, your head turn left and right, looking for Haku. The heavy bag on your back slams against you as you jog back and forth, frantically searching for Hotarubi's vice-captain. After all, even though his messages had been a little weird, you didn't want to risk not taking something as dangerous as a possible stalker seriously.
You stop in your tracks once you hear a nearby voice call out your name, and, quickly turning around on your feet, you manage to see Haku's yellow eyes peeking from behind a tree.
Maybe he was trying to hide from someone, you thought.
Swallowing hard, you try to walk quietly towards him in order to avoid any unwanted attention.
"Thank you for coming to save me" Haku say nonchalantly, smiling at you from his seat on the ground and against the tall tree.
You look left and right and wipe the sweat off your forehead, your eyes wide and alert.
“Where are they? Your stalker?” you whisper anxiously while you sit beside him, and Haku’s lips form an ‘o’ before he chuckles as if he had just remembered a hilarious joke.
“Right, the stalker. There it is” he points to the space in front of him.
“What? Where?” you crane your neck, trying to look at whatever was in the distance.
“No, no” he taps your shoulder “It isn't far away. It's really right there. There. Look.” he wiggles his finger, as if it would make you see better.
You squint, looking at the grass. That was all that was in front of him at that moment. Until you see a flash of dark brown jump up and down on the spot, and finally you manage to make out the so-called ‘stalker.’
“That's... a tanuki?” you widen your eyes in surprise after you manage to properly make out the silhouette of the little animal that rolled around between the blades of grass, almost unnoticeable with a little leaf on its head.
It is a tiny little thing. And very round too. Is every cute anomaly round like that?, you think. But then you turn around to face Haku and raise one eyebrow, looking at him in disbelief.
“It's been following me everywhere the past few days, you know? It’s even trying to sleep on my pillow at night and now I have to be careful not to roll around so I won’t smush it to death. It’s a serious problem, believe it or not.”
You roll your eyes at how Haku smirks while he explains his ‘terrible’ predicament to you.
“Well, why don't you take it to Jabberwock?” you ask. He hisses, as if you had just asked a hard question, and bashfully scratches his cheek
“It wasn’t a lack of trying” Haku then shows you the back of his left hand, where you could see a long and nasty red cut opening the skin. You gasp loudly.
“That tiny thing did this?!”
Haku sighs, nodding as if he also didn’t believe what had happened to him.
“It's a feisty little guy.”
“I can definitely see that” you gaze at the small tanuki with a bit more caution, brows scrunched up in surprise. “Well, first let’s take care of this awful wound and then we think of the rest. Can’t have you dying of tetanus because of a 10cm tall tanuki.” you say, opening your backpack and pulling out a medkit from its confines.
“You always carry that with you?”
“Of course. Have you ever spent more than a minute with the other ghouls? I literally need to be prepared for anything.”
This time, Haku laughs genuinely.
You take your time to carefully disinfect his cut, apply one of the many anomalous anointments you had picked up at the general store and then you wait for it to dry before bandaging his hand.
After a few moments of silence, with Haku most definitely basking in the feeling of your hands cradling his, you can't control your curiosity anymore.
“Okay but uh…” you stutter, lightly touching the ointment and then grabbing a clean bandage once you noticed it was dry. “Why did you ask me for my help? I’m just a human.”
Haku looks up, in thought.
“Well, I know you have a way with these little guys. Peekaboo loves you, doesn’t he?”
You hum, not fully convinced.
“But what if it scratches me too?”
Haku leans towards you, suddenly looking serious.
“Then I'll kill it” he murmurs, with a tinge of darkness in his voice.
You gasp loudly, startling the tanuki that had began to take a nap under the sun and in front of you.
“No!!!! Dont!!! It's cute!! Don't kill it!!!” you almost yell, clutching Haku’s hand tightly while you stare at him, eyes wide as saucers.
“Pffftt! Hahaha! It's okay, I was joking. I won't kill it.” he laughs, leaning back against the tree.
You scrunch your brows, looking at him with suspicion, not completely sure that he was just joking right there. You then tap his now bandaged hand lightly and sigh.
Haku tilts his head to the side and pouts.
“Aw. Can’t I have a little kiss on my wound to make it better?”
You glare at him for a moment, before pulling his hand towards your lips and kissing his fingers, avoiding the bandage for safety.
You turn your head away quickly so he wouldn’t see you flustered by your own actions. You end up missing the way his jaw hangs low, completely taken aback by you.
Haku clears his throat and scratches his cheek again, embarrassed.
“Well, now I really can't kill it. It got me a kiss. Maybe it's my new lucky charm.”
“Stop it.” you gently slap his shoulder. "Okay now... The anomaly." you mutter, more to yourself than to him.
You shift your position, sitting on your feet while you lean towards the lazy tanuki in front of you. The little thing was having the time of its life, warming his round belly under one of the sun rays that peeked through the large tree’s foliage. You stretch your arm towards it, the palm of your hand facing up so it’d climb on its own. You were just guessing what would be the right way to deal with that anomaly, but, much to your surprise, it slowly got up on its stubby little legs and walked towards you, quickly plopping on your hand and resuming its nap.
You get up from your seat carefully, mouth open wide in pure awe while you frantically motion for Haku to get up too. He snorts at the sight of your enthusiasm, also getting up.
“Let's take this guy to a place where he'll be safe.” you murmur, staring at the anomaly that was fully relaxed in your hands.
“Oh, it's okay, no need to take me anywhere. I'm safe with you” Haku said, smirking.
You finally snapped your head towards the man beside you, feeling your cheeks tingle at his teasing.
“Hahahaha! Sorry.” he chuckles, raising his arms in defeat. “Yes, let's give it a place to live.”
As you two make your way to Jabberwock, Haku suddenly pouts, feigning hurt while he looks at the creature you were so carefully holding.
“I can’t believe a tanuki managed to take a nap on you before me. You really have a way with conquering us, monsters.”
You sigh. There was absolutely no end to this man's teasing and his flirting, you think.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever you say” you mumble, exasperated. He just laughs, pleased at your reactions.
I tried to make parallels between the smol tanuki and Haku, basically like: they're both lazy and they both quickly like you ;w; I hope it was easy to notice that lmao
