Shall I tell an odd story?

On my way home after closing the restaurant, I felt like someone was following me. Yet looking behind, there was no one save for the usual late night walkers. But no one following me specifically. Still, I couldn't quite ignore it. It took me awhile to get home because I decided to take a different route than usual.

Arriving home, as soon as I closed the door, there was a knock. Impossible. There was no one behind me coming up the hallway to my apartment. There wasn't anyone. But again, there was a knock. Curious, but I'm not so curious as to open the door. The knocking, however, grew angry and loud. I thought I would soon get calls from my neighbors or at least someone complaining.

But no one did.

The frantic, insistent knocking continued. I can't say I was afraid about it. Whatever was on the other side couldn't enter, so I let it enjoy itself beating on the door. Eventually, it did stop and I went to sleep, deciding it was one more odd thing this app had to bring.

Troubling, I suppose, when I woke up to find the door to my apartment was wide open with the sound of something breathing quietly just out of sight.

All the same, today is Easter Sunday and I won't be around for the early morning. I hope everyone takes care of themselves better than what I did, haha.

[ ooc: getting into the spirit of april fool's, you get a weird creepypasta story. ]

I think we need to teach you how to actually pull a practical joke, Kei.

It does appear this has mostly been a flop, as they say.

Partly due to your delivery I'm afraid.

Text?

[ As with Ashura, he is being purposely obtuse. ]

You are already aware I can see through that.

I am just not meant for light-hearted pranks. Jokes, I can do on occasion.

Oh? You can pull off jokes?

The mood has to be right, but yes, I can.

Now that I would find impressive.

I am afraid that you may be building it up in your head.

Possibly. But it does entertain me at least.

Then fantasize away. Who am I to take away your enjoyment?

Well thank you for that. It is truly appreciated.

You're most welcome.
Though, I feel as though you would regardless of my approval or disapproval.

I wouldn't be that cruel if you didn't like it.

[Because he's honestly a nice person.]

Oh?
Are you someone else that cares about my lukewarm feelings?

I meant genuine disapproval. True dislike. It's quite different from being lukewarm to something.

Ah.
You may never encounter that with me.
There are so few things that I honestly and truly dislike.
And they are rarely due to what people are doing.

Precisely why I had no need to worry about the matter at all and could simply proceed as planned.

Indeed.
You can simply do however you like with me.
There's no reason to worry about my feelings.
If what you're looking for is true dislike, you will most likely never encounter it.

If I do I'll have to make sure to record the moment.
Otherwise we may never have proof it took place.

Too true, I am afraid.

And what about you?

Hm? What about me?

Ah. My apologies, I made that quite vague.

What I mean is, what would you say you truly dislike?

Quite a lot honestly. I mean I really don't hide my feelings for something well when I'm not fond of something.
