"Kou, Hanako, this might be a strange question.. but does any of you have a y'know, lint roller...?"

Hanako and Kou stared at you with confusion written on their faces. The apparition would levitate over towards you, his index finger resting on his chin. "Why do you need one anyway? Don't tell me- you have some sort of lint-roller fetish?"

The blond behind him was busy sleeving his Raiteijou, and once he was finished he leaned it against the wall, voicing his response. "Sorry, I don't have one. But, the toilet ghost did ask a pretty good question. Why do you need one in the first place?"

You bit down on your lower lip. 

Of course, there came the temptation to tell them at least part of the story.. however no matter how strong your resolve was.. it shattered every time you thought about your mother. A small saddened look was washed over because of your soft smile. You pulled against the trimming of your uniform dress. "It's not a fetish, tr-trust me! I just hate getting dirt on my clothes.. so... yeah.." 

You chose to lie, and because of that your heart ached in guilt from within. 

The boys could see through that lie of yours, but for some reason, they went along with it. Kou crossed his arms, glancing to Hanako, who looked back at him with the same look.

Hanako suddenly grinned subtly, returning his eyes back onto you as one of his orbs approached you. "..Imputing dishonesty is not one of your strong suits, [L/N]. That lie was so transparent that I wanted to laugh." Within a second, it would circle around you, allowing your uniform to regress into it's clean and sparkling appearance than minutes before, like it was fresh out of the washing machine. "There you go!"

Your uniform fluttered delicately while the wind around you started to relax, and while you looked down, the specks of dirt coating your clothes vanished just like that. "Ah! Thank you so much, Hanako!" Grasping onto his hands you took him by surprise, however he didn't necessarily mind the warmth of your hands. "You're... welcome.." 

He wanted to say something else, only Kou intervened without his knowledge. "So Hanako, you're the creepy and perverted ghost who is supposed to be the seventh wonder, right? How come you're not all like... I'll kill you! Or Feel my wrath! ?" He thought of an more intimidating depiction of Hanako, meanwhile you cracked out a laugh. 

The boy in question tilted his head, now behind you as held onto your waist, drawing himself near. "You honestly thought I'd be like that? I don't think I'm that menacing at all, isn't that right [L/N]?" He pulled his head closer to yours, practically breathing against your skin. "I could've beaten you to a pulp if I wanted to, though!" 

As the blond twitched out of frustration, you twitched as well, but it was far more violent than the male's. Your face heated up with red, while your hands rose to try to pry Hanako away from you. 

"Considering you're in my boundary, things would've ended in a blink of an eye. So let's be glad that I spared you." He was being blunt; applying salt into the wound, leading Kou to sulk with a hung head. "Don't word it like that.. you make it sound like i didn't stand a chance.." Well, Kou, that's because you didn't. Though the author didn't want to include that.

The blond strengthened his posture after a moment, fixated on your discomfort. "And by the way, could you back off of [Y/N]? She's obviously uncomfortable!" He directed his index finger towards you, who was drowning in your own fluster.

There was so much heat struck your face that you felt dizzy, and so your eyes were brought into exaggerated swirls. Hanako continued however, his hands delicately tugging your cheeks with a happy laugh. "Her reactions are funny!"
