[That magnificence is taking up quite a bit of space, which is part of the reason Maria's not moving too far quite yet. Especially with Hibiki suspended over her like that.

In consideration of modesty and Hibiki's position, though, she does shift slightly and try to roll herself a bit to one side.]

If you need to push yourself back, I can give you more space to put your hands. [It's not much, but having her side to Hibiki rather than being front-on does narrow the space she's taking up a bit. It does mean her shoulder is just about brushing Hibiki's chest, though.]

Quite...considerate. [ Sweat forms on Hibiki's brow, trickles down her face. All right. Slowly. Elegantly. Gracefully. She will extract herself...from this potentially dangerous position....

Then her hand slips and her front hits Maria's shoulder on its way down. Hibiki thumps down onto her own side, her back to Maria's back, more or less curled up into the fetal position and scowling in frustration and surprise. That. Could have gone better.

Curse these limitations. ]

[The sweat makes Maria's brow furrow a little concernedly, because that is...a lot of effort being put into not making a fool of herself. Or at least, that's what Maria imagines is the problem here.

Focusing on that means Hibiki slipping comes rather unexpectedly, though, and though she lets out a sharp breath when Hibiki hits her shoulder, she slides off quickly enough. It doesn't really improve their positioning at all, though, and though Maria tries to press herself a bit closer to her side of the box, it doesn't do much for how they're squashed in either.]

...That makes things harder.

[ Hibiki glowers, sulking, at the universe. Right. From this position - and if it won't give from pushing - ]

What's your power?

[ Just realized she didn't know it. If she had her sword.... ]

[declamando]

Healing. [Though Maria doesn't really know the details of it, she knows enough to be fully aware it isn't going to do anything for them here.] So nothing that can do anything for us right now.

[priforprince]

Healing...

[ Said more to muse it over than out of having an actual idea. Are there any gaps in this box at all, for them to exploit?

Hibiki crosses her arms. ] We don't know whether it's soundproof, either.

[ Which makes calling for shinki out of the question. ]

[declamando]

[Maria catches on to what she's getting at with the point of soundproofing, and rather pointedly drives her heel into the side of the box again.]

Even if either of our shinki were in earshot, that might not be enough to get us out. And I'd need to be able to move to work with Natsuru effectively anyway.

[The costume works well enough when they have that space, but in a situation like this they wouldn't be able to get up the momentum to use the veils.]

[priforprince]

I see.

[ What does Natsuru turn into...

Irrelevant. Hibiki debates their options, hits on the one most aligned with her aesthetic, and closes her eyes. They have no choice but to wait for someone to discover this box, and find it too heavy to move, at which point they open it! So, she shall remain calm, and--

--get a cramp in her leg....

Hibiki's eyebrow twitches. She can feel the pressure of her temper building in her chest again. This is just too intolerable a situation. ]
