RESPONSE RECORDED BELOW
zhihei gets quiet when he hears someone coming, pressing his lanky figure into the wall. he’s all but disappeared into the shadows, when a number floats in the corner of his vision - eighty-five percent, flickering faintly red.
he stops breathing, goes still. the number climbs to ninety-two.
he’s not supposed to be in this area - which is exactly why he’d come, so no one would go looking for him here. sun zhihei is a bunch of defense mechanisms cobbled together into the vague shape of a human being. one of them demands for him to be completely alone at times, away from all of the commotion and possibilities, so he can clear his head. instead, he’s treated to info that he’s most certainly not supposed to know, something that makes him inhale a risky breath. his percentage wavers just a bit.
ninety-one percent chance that he won’t get caught, if he doesn’t move.
so he keeps still, and keeps listening, squirreling away the info that is unwittingly revealed to him. they are certainly things that he should let someone more important than him know, but… he thinks he’ll just tell bonnie, which is probably another defense mechanism speaking.
as he waits, the hushed voices fade. the number ticks up to one hundred percent before it fades away, too.
