Chitoge nodded and went on to take her shoes off as well. It felt strange to be in the house of some random stranger, but well, he was nice enough and-!
.....
Wait, her brain did register that right, right? Shin had just said that... they were all alone. In their house. There was nobody else. Nobody at all.
Chitoge gasped at this realization. W-W-What was he planning to do to her?!
'Perhap' I really oughta leave. I-I mean, how many gals in their righ' mind woulda accept an invita'ion from a guy to come ta their home while soaking wet? E-Even if he's REAL kind.... and hand'ome.' The girl thought to herself.
When the boy returned with a towel for her, well, it became really, really hard to actually say she wanted to, no, that was wrong, to say that she needed to leave. As she thought before, the boy was really sweet. It would just leave a bad aftertaste in her mouth to shut him down.
With a wry smile in her face, Chitoge started drying her hair off. She took both hair bands out of her hair and let her brown hair fall all the way to the end of her back.
Truthfully, and even as it was let down, it was still really fluffy, almost like a dog, and that fluffiness made Chitoge somewhat fidgety. She never liked her overly fluffy hair.
As much as she wanted to tell him not to bother getting clothes from his sister, well, what could Chitoge do? She could not go home with the heavy rain pouring down as it was, and spending time with Shin with only a towel to cover her shame was also a no-no.
"P-Please do." The girl nodded as the man stared at her. Tilting her head, Chitoge asked,
"'S something wrong?" Again, she let her guard down. Long enough for Shin to take a good look at her eyepatch.
"Ah." A deep blush appeared in her cheeks. Well, there was no use hiding it anymore. that moment she let her guard down was decisive. If he had not seen the eyepatch by then, then he was blind.
Chitoge followed after him all the way to his bath and decided to take her clothes off and better dry herself off, only staying in her undergarments. They weren't all that wet, but they were certainly childish.
Bear panties, really? What the hell was she thinking in the morning?
Shin's offer to take a bath seemed to be sent from the heavens themselves.
"I-I'll bother ya with that, then." The girl answered, before smiling and going into the shower.
About 20 minutes later, Chitoge came out from the bath and put on the clothes Shin had set aside for her. She had already put her hair up in her usual pair of pigtails and had her eye covered by her eyepatch too.
She fidgeted as she approached Shin.
"Err, got any one place ta hang my clothes at? I-I don't wanna leave 'em, well.... hangin' around in yer bathroom." The girl was still blushing. The outfit was a bit tight, but beggars can't be choosers.
"D-Don't look at me! I-It's real embarrassin'" The girl shouted at Shin.
@Krinos Solstice (please still be here)
Well, that was boring. The red one overwhelmed the fight from beginning to end. The blue avatar had no chance at all. Perhaps a novice being an idiot and connecting to the net with a newly created avatar? Could happen. Happened to him.
With that done with, Arashi turned on his heel and readied to go some other place to watch some other battle when a sudden message arrived, making him stop in his tracks to read what it was.
A reminder to all Legion members, scouting season is a few days away, be sure to keep your eyes open for potential new members. ~L.S.~A message from the king? Well, that was cool. Maybe Arashi could finally find someone to take under his wing and become a guardian of his own right... yeah, right.
He had never been good with kids, and his loner tendencies definitely did not let him get near anyone in the school. The scouting should then happen with unaligned people, then.
There were some out there, that was for sure. Perhaps battling them and then coercing them into joining the legion? Nah, that was more like bullying. Hm... what to do then? He wasn't the type to have a sign above his head reading 'WE NEED PEOPLE IN THE PURPLE LEGION! ARE YOU THE ONE?'
....That sounded cooler than he expected. Perhaps he would consider the sign idea.
