[ juno's eyes widen a little at the sudden yelp, so much so that his entire body tenses forward instinctively. well apparently that was useless... god this system fucked him up real good as a kid didn't it? juno holds his hands out again. placating. his voice is a kind, but a edging towards stern to get his attention away from the panic: ]

Kagari!

[ calm down. ]

It's okay. Just... relax. A little bit.

[ he digs a heel in. ]

Nothing here's gonna hurt you. And if it tries, it's gonna have to go through me, okay?

[ it's a declaration juno doesn't make lightly. he's only known kagari for a handful a days but if anything happened to this small child he'd kill everyone in this broken down building and then himself. ]
