11: A Hug
[ this is how they meet. Amazing ]
“Uh…” He shuffled a bit uncomfortable before quickly hugging the trapezist, “Sorry, I got told I had to do that…” He mumbled, looking away with a scowl.
"I find it easier to just do what they say. And it wasn’t anything too weird to it wasn’t that hard to do." He shrugged, taking a small breath. Hugs were uncomfortable but hey it was easier than most things he’d seen people get forced to do.
“Weird? Liiike. Sexual weird? Or just.. Weird weird?” Sumiko looked disgruntled and she scratched her head through her hair. A lot of things were going through her mind, like. Creepy rituals and similar stuff. “Ah– That was an awkward way to introduce each other, I bet. My name’s Sumiko. Uh, just Sumiko, though.”
