[Arknights] Dr. Hana Meets Demetri in a Bar

Series: Arknights

Characters/Pairings: Vigil/Doctor, Demetri & Doctor

Summary: -

Notes: -

When visiting Siracusa, Dr. Hana hops around various bars. She unknowingly stepped into the bar Demetri is working at as a bartender. Curious, and since he doesn’t know her anyway, she decides to step in and strikes a conversation like a normal visitor.

She presents herself as a tourist who went to Siracusa for the carnival (that’s not exactly wrong). As for why she’s all alone, she makes up a lie about her friends getting food poisoning or something, so she’s left alone. Upset, she decided to drink her sorrows away. Naturally, she flirts at Demetri, but it goes nowhere - not that she wants it to go somewhere. She’s interested in him - mainly in curiousity, but she doesn’t know what Leontuzzo’s stance is and how it might affect him, so she’d rather play it safe.

After coming back to the manor, she tells Leontuzzo about this encounter. A similar conversation to what I wrote before happens:

I think it’d be fun to have her pursue Demetri (with Leon’s permission), but I doubt she’d have the time. Unless…?

Obviously, Leontuzzo has complicated feelings about letting the 2 of them meet, let alone talk and get into a relationship of any kind. His jealousy mixed with weird, complex feelings aside, it might put her life in danger. But a part of him is also curious on what might happen should she be allowed to pursue Demetri. If there’s anyone who can “conquer” Demetri, it might be her. When she sets her eyes on a prey, she’d never let it go until she catches it, he thinks. Texas’ assessment of her is correct - she is indeed an apex predator.

If Leontuzzo allows Dr. Hana to pursue Demetri:

Maybe her excuse to stay long-term at Siracusa is for work. Or she can do her job remotely. Or maybe, her job is to spy on Demetri? That’s not the kind of job the Doctor of Rhodes Island usually do, but it’s within her specialty. Perhaps it can be disguised as field work or something.

I still don’t know how things unfold from there, though.
