Hinata shot him a withering look. "Don't."
After a second, he brushed it off, as if Komaeda hadn't even said anything to begin with. "We should do a room with other people instead of exploring them ourselves. We get into quite a bit of trouble when there isn't anyone else around that's more experienced than us.." another meaningful, suggestive look at Komaeda.
Homura watched Naegi and Chamomile go, stealing one more glance at Fire before she decided to settle her gaze on Rei, who seemed to also be equally admiring her.

Watching Naegi and Chamomile leave the living room, Bass rose onto his feet and trailed after them. "Where are you guys going?" He asked, folding his arms over his chest to invoke confidence.
A bright, red hue colored her pale cheeks when Rei noticed Homura staring at her. Quickly, she regained her composure and focused her gaze onto the floor. "...is there something you need?" She asked softly.

haha yeah i feel ^^;; looking at references and studying anatomy does help a lot tho!))
"Whatever you're willing to tell me," Naegi said, tone gentle so as not to scare her into intimidation or anything of the like. "I just want to know that you're safe."
"So, you mean... you want someone to keep the room, or us, in check," Komaeda mused, hand placed thoughtfully against his chin. Soon, the smile returned to his features, Hinata's hand gently grasped by his. Eagerly tugging him towards the hallway, he didn't really give his classmate a choice in the matter. "We're going in a room now! If anyone wants to follow or join us, be my guest!" With that, he opened the door to the hallway, immediately taking the door on his left.
Noticing the duo in the hallway, Komaeda offered them a somewhat apologetic smile. "Excuse me! Lovey dovey couple on their honeymoon, coming through," he hummed, dragging Hinata after him into the room.
Naegi could only stare incredulously at the two, until he noticed that one was Hinata, and the other was the guy who had a strange penchant for stomping on feet. "Wait, Hinata, are you okay--?!"
Before he could finish, he caught Bass' voice, nervously glancing to the robot. "Um... We were just going to talk?"
Jesus so much was happening in a short amount of time he wasn't sure if he could keep up with it.

"K-Komaeda-! Wait!" Hinata tried to get his wrist out of his grip before his classmate could drag him stumbling into the infinite hallway. Passing by Naegi, and hearing him pipe up with a concerned tone, he could only give him a little bit of a helpless glance in his direction before being dragged away. Hinata's gaze abruptly snapped back to Komaeda as he spoke, sputtering. "H-haaa?! Lovey dovey what-" The door opened and closed, interrupting his indignant echo.
Homura shook her head. "I am only watching you. ..Who might you be?" This girl seemed quiet, and awkward. But she wasn't the type to judge on people's appearances. Not anyone.

"Why?" Rei questioned, tucking a blue strand of hair behind her ear as she gazed at Homura, "My name is Rei Ayanami. Who are you?"
"About what? Are you two going into a room?" Bass questioned curiously. He grew irritated at Chamomile's remark, and his hands curled into fists. "What? I'm not allowed to ask questions?" He growled, hurling a glare at the dragon.

haha yeah!! like they say, practice always makes perfect :p sometimes its gradual so you dont notice, but i promise that youre always improving!! every time you put that pencil to paper, you get a little better at drawing, yknow?))
Catching Hinata's helpless gaze, the anxiety churning in his stomach only grew as the two disappeared behind a door, which was supposedly dangerous...
Fear shot down his spine.
Going in there all alone... could very well may be... "Hinata!" He cried, stepping towards the door. Abruptly, he stopped himself, gaze flickering over to Chamomile in worry. "Chamomile, I-I'm so sorry, but-- he-- I--" Naegi was nervously hopping from foot to foot now, as if all too eager to break out into a sprint. "Hinata could be in danger-- I can't just stand around-- could get hurt-- I have to help him!" Words and thoughts fell out of his mouth, each interrupting the other as his mind went from here, to there, then back to here again. Just as he finished his last sentence, he urgently bolted towards the door, quickly swinging it open and slamming it shut behind him.
Before them was a magnificent ballroom, walls completely white with paintings and photos of various sizes and sceneries hanging from them. The floor was made of white marble, decorated with grey flecks here and there, with a table of varying food and drinks in one corner. Daylight streamed in through the windows, showing off a field of flowers that supposedly surrounded this mansion. Cabinets with fancy dishes and small statues were pushed off too the side and against the wall, so as not to get in anyone's way if they were, say, dancing. There was a small stage with a mic to the left, though there were no performers. Which was odd, since a slow waltz was playing regardless...
What was strangest, however, was that Komaeda found that his outfit was replaced with a more formal one, his jacket exchanged for a green, unbuttoned trenchcoat with black buttons. A black suit vest and a white dress shirt was underneath that, his upper garments neatly finished off with a black tie. His dress pants were also black, along with his shoes.
The most interesting part, however, was the cat mask that was now situated on his face, with gold surrounding the eyes, resembling thick cartoony eyelashes, dotted with gems here and there.
Heels clicking against the floor, he let go of Hinata's hand to glance around the room curiously. "A masquerade...?" He mused, glancing down at his hands to see that they were clad with black gloves now. "...How fancy." He looked back at his classmate, wondering as to what the room had put him in.

The first words that fell out of Hinata's mouth were a "Holy hell!", eyes wide as his gaze flickered around the spacious ballroom, his voice echoing in it's emptiness. Hinata's attire consisted of a white dress shirt, black dress pants and formal white slip on shoes, as well as green suspenders and a black tie. It really wasn't much of a change, considering his already formal appearance, but the mask adorning his face was unique; It was black, but with a green hue and shine to it. It arched over his cheekbones and nose, covering most of his upper face. A fake green hibiscus blossomed from the right of the mask's face, green jewels hanging from the sides and details richly detailing the mask. Subtle gold accented everything, bringing the piece of artwork that covered Hinata's face together. ..It brought out his eyes, as they eventually landed on Komaeda, checking out his appearance in return.
"No reason," Homura answered. "I am merely curious." Her eyes darted to everyone beginning to leave, watching them go for a few seconds, before turning back to Rei and Fire. "It seems we're doing a room. Shall we go and see?"

"Whatever..." Bass grunted, his eyes lingering on the door. Interest piqued, he dashed through the door. He groaned in disappointment when he noticed the elegant ballroom instead of a deadly battle arena. He raised his hand to place it against his helmet...only to find it missing. Instead, his fingers felt the strands of his slicked back, wild black hair. "Are you freaking kidding me?!" He screeched, looking down at the dark purple tuxedo that replaced his armor. Luckily, he hadn't noticed the black mask that was shaped like a bat's wings.
Rei nodded, eyeing the hallway. Hopefully the room wasn't dangerous. "I'm going as well..." She answered adamantly.

"Hinata!" Naegi cried, reaching a hand out to place it on his shoulder.
...Only to notice he had white sleeves now, and gloves of the same color.
"Eh...?" It came out as a shocked whisper, the boy quickly checking his appearance to notice he now had a pink suit vest, a white long sleeved dress shirt, and dress pants that were pink as well. His dress shoes and bowtie were both black, as well. Looking up, he noticed the mask placed on his friend's face.
"...EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!"
His hands flew to his face, frantically feeling out the mask that was now strapped to his own face. The right eye had metallic wings sprouting from it, and a pretty white dove feather plumed out of the left aide of it. The mask itself was decorated with golden olive branches, which wrapped itself around the mask, wings, and feather.
"W-what is this...?!" Naegi cried out, at a loss of what to do.
Komaeda's 'check-out-Hinata's-outfit' session was interrupted by Naegi practically yelling at the top of his lungs, gaze darting over to him. "It's a party room."
"I-I know, but I..."
"But you what?" Komaeda tilted his head curiously.
"...Nevermind," Naegi eventually sighed, now taking in the room around them. What... where they supposed to do here?
He hadn't quite noticed it, but his hand was still lingering on Hinata's shoulder.

"This is better than I expected it would be." Chamomile gave the room a questioning look as she stepped through the door. Her clothes were replaced with a full set of shimmering scarlet red sylvan apparel making her feel nervous since it cost quite a lot of treasure and gems back home to look so elegant. Albeit she admired her graceful scarlet dress along with the bronze lattice she had on her wings, her own tail had a coil around the tip with a perfectly placed ruby on it,two bracelets that matched the outfit had perfectly fit on her, and a mask the shimmered with glitter while having two iridescent wings attached to its sides. Surely nothing could go wrong?
Dipper had wondered into the room right after a group of older blinkers had gone in yet nothing could surprise him as he stared at his own clothes. His red shirt and khaki pants had been replaced with a black tuxedo, black pants, a pair of shoes, and a black and white mask marked with a black question mark in the middle with two stripes on each side as each stripe was the opposite color they were on. "What do we do now?" He asked out loud already determined to find a way out of the room stepping into the middle of the ballroom.

Hinata turned slightly, briefly glancing down at the hand on his shoulder before looking to Naegi. "To be more specific, it looks like a masquerade," he clarified. "The house wants us to.. have a party?" He was becoming suspicious of the house and what it intended with this kind of room, but for now, nothing seemed too out of ordinary, so he'd try to relax.. If he could. "N-Naegi," he said, after a moment's pause, "You can.. let go of me. I'm fine. Really. ..You didn't have to follow me in here.." It seems Naegi's appearance had brought in the rest of the house with him, actually..
Homura stepped in, cloaked in a cascading, layered black dress with a high collar neckline. It had purple ends and details and jewels adorning the front of her chest, as well as simple black gloves. Her mask was simple, black with purple horns protruding from the top of the forehead of the piece, elegant and lacy looking.
Her hands gathered her dress in a fistful to admire the layers for a few seconds before turning her head upwards to study the scenery, wordless in all of these actions.

Sakuya blinked in, teatray in hand. "A-ah? A ballroom? I hadn't expected the House to act like a proper mansion." The maid laughed, taking a half-step backwards. It was almost surprising seeing something that didn't look so out-of-place, even if something was bound to happen. Odd things always seemed to have to occur in elegant-looking places.
(Wow am I bad at writing blinking-in posts haha. And I'm reading The Mysterious Affair At Styles so I'm ready for some good old murder mystery)

"...Let go?" Naegi blinked his eyes curiously, until his gaze landed on his fingers, which were clasping Hinata's shoulder. Flinching, he stumbled back, hand practically flying back to his side. "O-oh! I'm so sorry!" Rubbing the smooth fabric of his glove, Naegi cleared his throat awkwardly. "I was just, um, worried that the room might've been dangerous."
...There was something he wanted he wanted to tell Hinata.
Gaze suddenly lighting up, he met Hinata's eyes again, seeming a tad more chipper than before. "I didn't get the chance to tell you this, but... I can tell that you're a really good person, Hinata-kun. I'd love to talk with you more!" Laughing, he flashed a big smile at the boy, relaxing his tense muscles.
"...So, a party room, right?" Naegi softly mused, placing a gloved hand against his chin. "Does it... want us to dance...?"
"Great idea!" Komaeda immediately chirped up, beginning to back away a bit. "You two can dance while I look for any hidden exits. Sounds perfect!" Before the two could reply, he already turned, heading toward one of the framed pictures, a hand raised in parting. "Have fun!"
"W-wait!" Naegi called, stepping forwards in shock. "I don't know how to dance...!"
But it was too late. Komaeda was already far enough from them to pretend he couldn't hear them, merrily tilting one of the photos.

Entering the room, Rei's white plugsuit transformed into an indigo, flared out dress. Feeling something on her face, her hand felt the pointy, white mask, and the First Child nearly gasped. This...this mask almost felt like the ones the Angels wore! Deciding to ignore it for now, she inspected the vast and dainty ballroom. Why did it look sophisticated? "It seems oddly welcoming..." She commented skeptically, glancing at Homura's dress, "Everyone are wearing fancy outfits as well."
"Can we leave now?" Bass blurted out, burrowing his face into his gloved hands. He didn't have time for this! Gritting his teeth, he glanced around the room, hoping to find an exit.

Fire decided she could do better than the music the House was playing. Walking up to the stage, she looked at it for a moment, considering, before simply settling in front of it. She didn't want to be put up on a pedestal. Lifting her fiddle to below her chin, she closed her eyes, running the bow over the strings thoughtfully as she tried to decide what to play. It was a ballroom, right? Then it would seem that slow dancing music would be appropriate. As the first note left her fiddle, the House's music faded out to let hers fill the air.
Noctin stopped again when he heard Naegi's words. Dancing? He risked a glance back at them, feeling a stab of jealousy when he saw Naegi was completely focused on Hinata. Letting out a sharp breath, he headed into the next room. Of course. Why would Naegi want to dance with him when he could dance with someone who hadn't recently almost killed him. Another rough, exasperated sound escaped him. He wasn't supposed to be hating himself for no reason. And yet here he was. He looked around the room. It seemed to be an elaborate kitchen of sorts, full of appliances Noctin had no name for.

Homura nodded, finally looking back down to Rei beside her, remaining impassive in disposition despite her warning advice. "It seems almost too welcoming. It's best to be on your guard for now." How she could possibly fight in this dress, she didn't know. I'll work on it. She watched Fire take the stage as the music faded out to let her play, curious as to what she plans to play for the masquerade. Her music must be as beautiful as she looks, she mused, privately, to herself, mentally apologizing to Madoka all the while.
Hinata looked startled at this exclamation for a few seconds, but it quickly changed to a polite smile of his own, a good-natured laugh rising out of him before he replied. "That would be nice. ..Thank you, Naegi."
As Komaeda went off to do his thing, calling over his shoulder that they should dance, Hinata could not stop the surprise from crossing his face. I don't know how to dance, either.. Oh, well. Slightly adjusting his mask, and then stepping up to Naegi, he assumed a very serious look; Though, you can tell by the way his mouth quirked and the look in his eyes he couldn't take the situation at hand very seriously. "May I have this dance?"
