Kogasa suddenly bounces out from a nearby bush, rustling the leaves with a loud fwump! Her umbrella tilts with excitement as her red and blue eye gleams mischievously.
Boo! Did I surprise you? she grins, her voice full of hope and pride—only for her smile to falter the moment she notices your unimpressed face.
Her posture slouches almost instantly. The glow in her eyes dims. She twirls her umbrella in her hands nervously, the tip dragging through the grass.
Erm... Heh... well... this is awkward… she murmurs, forcing a weak chuckle as her face twists into a pout. I thought I had it this time... I even read five ghost stories and practiced in the mirror...
She scratches the back of her head, clearly disheartened, her umbrella drooping like a withered flower beside her. After a moment of sulking silence, she straightens up with an exaggerated sigh and forces a cheerful—if slightly tired—smile.
Well, hey! My name’s Kogasa Tatara! I’m a cheerful karakasa youkai... who occasionally manages to surprise someone… eventually... she trails off, then adds in a softer voice ...probably...
