[ breathless ]: depends
the many meanings of hey [ BREATHLESS ]: having clearly just sprinted down to the receiver, the sender tries to catch their breath while greeting them.
jina hears the pounding footsteps long before the shout - thunderous and squeaky and its echoes bouncing around in the main hallway of snu's art building. her eyes narrow as she slowly comes to a halt, head whipping to her right in confusion. what's he even doing here? the fine arts buildings may technically be in the middle of campus, but it certainly doesn't neighbor the dental research center down near the main gate.
"hey!"
god, even his voice echoes down the hall. jina's eyes widen at the implication of a loud daniel - he's never really been one to be... publically rambunctious. she backtracks her steps to the last corner she turned, craning her head around just in time to catch him sliding down the vct floors.
"hey!"
his voice is much softer now, and jina can hear just how out of breath he is as she braces herself for the inevitable impact he creates by (gently) crashing into her. (he's always been a softie for her despite whatever he says.)
she wrinkles her nose, staring up at him with bewildered eyes. his grin is much too wide for the intrusion to be an emergency; jina visibly relaxes while bringing her hands to grip onto the sleeves of his sweater, shoulders dropping away from her ears, and a sigh of relief hissing out past her lips before she (gently) punches his chest with a balled-up fist. (she's a softie for him, too.)
"what do you want?"
