Work Text:
After watching films and reading some books, I learned about a concept called 'kabedon'. Essentially, it's when one person corners another against a wall. I wondered what it would feel like, so I asked everyone to kabedon me.
Observation Level 1:
Yi Sang was confused, but he complied. The kabedon was successful, as our height difference was not great. His blushing face while he cornered me against the wall was adorable.
7/10. His bashful expression made the score higher.
Observation Level 2:
My heart was pounding when Faust kabedoned me without a word. Her pretty face was so close! She smelled good! I could see her eyelashes fluttering at such close range!
Unfortunately, the kabedon was rather short. "Faust sees no point in this,” she said. It kind of killed the mood.
7/10. Her beautiful, close-up face made the kabedon worth it.
Observation Level 3:
Yeah, it almost did not work because of the height difference. However, Don's enthusiasm made up for that.
"Did I make your heart ponder, Manager Esquire? What must I do to make your heart flutter?"
Her excitement was contagious, so the kabedon went on longer than I expected.
6/10. The height was wrong, but she's pretty charming.
Observation Level 4:
Nope. Just no.
0/10. I almost lost my head.
Observation Level 5:
Meursault's height was perfect for a kabedon. My heart was pounding at the beginning, but it became awkward. He just stood there in silence, staring at me. It was kind of scary. I had to tell him to stop because he would not blink!
7/10. It was a nice experience, although it turned awkward.
Observation Level 6:
Oh my! How did I say this? His innocent remark, his perfect height and his smile won me over. Hong Lu cornered me against the wall, staring deeply into my face. (I regretted not having eyes for once). His gentle smile, light voice and soft giggle made my heart skip a beat.
After kabedon me, he even said, "Let's do this again someday, Dante-nim!"
How was my heart supposed to stay still after hearing that?
10/10. I want him to kabedon me again.
Observation Level 7:
"That's stupid! Why would I do that?"
Heathcliff grumbled when I asked for a kabedon, but he did it anyway.
"Here! Are you satisfied?" he said while having the most red shade on his cheek.
8/10. The contrast between his rude façade and his embarrassed side was refreshing.
Observation Level 8:
Ishmael was confused, but she sighed and did it anyway. At first, I was happy because I could feel her fluffy hair brushing against my skin. Unfortunately, the moment was cut short when she let go of the kabedon. She asked, "Can I stop now?"
6/10. She was not excited at all.
Observation Level 9:
Oh, Rodion. She knew how to charm people. Her teasing smile as she backed me into a corner. Her face leaned closer to mine. Her finger under my chin (uh, clock? It's not like I have a face) as she whispered, "Hmm? I didn't know you liked this sort of thing, Dante~ You should tell me sooner. I will do this more often."
9/10. She would have received a perfect score if I had not realised that she had stolen some sweets from my pocket.
Observation Level 10:
Sinclair's height made kabedon awkward. However, he was the opposite of Don Quixote. He was flustered and hung his head the whole time. Sinclair was very embarrassed about it.
I wanted to tease him, but he said, "Manager, can I stop now? Please?"
4/10. I felt bad for him. I should not have asked him to do kabedon again.
Observation Level 11:
"Very well, Executive Manager."
Outis sighed when he heard my order. It was an unusual request. However, she wasted no time in cornering me.
"Is this angle right? Are you comfortable? What should I do to make this better?" she asked, giving me her usual sheepish smile.
6/10. Her eagerness to please me gave me mixed feelings. I was pleased but also annoyed.
Huh. I was surprised Outis got a score this high.
Observation Level 12:
"Uh, Manager Bud. Are you sure this is okay?"
Gregor seemed very unsure when I asked him to do the kabedon. It was awkward for both of us. He said nothing, looking in a different direction, and there was not much I could say.
5/10. It's not bad, but it's not good either. It was just awkward.
Observation Level 13:
This is an unexpected kabedon, to be honest. Vergilius confronted me this morning because the sinners messed up. He told me to be careful. His red eyes glared at me like piercing daggers. My heart was beating for a different reason.
7/10. I was terrified but thrilled.
Observation Level 14:
Can I count this as a kabedon? Charon cornered me against the wall with her right foot. She demanded the sweets in my pocket, then left.
2/10. It felt more like extortion.
(There were more written sentences down under the observation log with different writing, as it was different parts from the experiment.)
- Tch! Don't tell me you're going to ask me to kabedon you again, Clockhead! That was embarrassing!
- K. I. S. S.
- Uh... Kabedon Is Silly Stuff?
- Whoops, sorry about the sweets, Dante. Won't happen again.
- One heart is not ready for doing another kabedon.
- I will try to give the manager a better experiment.
- Manager bud, let's not do this again. It's very awkward...
- HOW DARE YOU ALL! You all should prepare yourself if the Executive Manager wants another kabedon. Don't worry, I will make sure you have the best kabedon experience!
- (sob) Doth anyone know how to compost oneself taller?
- Faust did not understand what's the point of this experiment at all.
- I can't believe I am saying this, but I agree with Faust.
- Dante, when are we going to do another one?
- Charon wants candy again.
- Dante... what on earth are you writing?
