Six on the dot was her deadline. Her higher-ups had been merciful earlier in the day and granted her a small extension, but now it felt like even that wouldn't even be enough. There was no hiding the steady confusion that began to twist in her features, however. Not 'lieutenant,' or even 'miss'? Hearing only her name escape the captain's lips left a certain strangeness. This was alien to their usual encounters, and Hazama could see that knowledge creep up her countenance. Though the implications still managed to somehow fly over her head.
Feeling she would begin to sweat at the realization (tomorrow morning--), the situation was growing even more dire for Noel. That was no time for these games, and she would make it clear for the captain.
"Can't you drop a hint? Anything, please?" Noel pleaded with him, taking a step in his direction. "I don't have any time. I can't stand here all night and guess at what you want from me, s-so...!"
