DOMS WANTED
This is... somewhat out of her wheelhouse, and she can't even imagine trying to instruct anyone in something like this. But these are her people now and this is her territory and that means she's going to put her all into assisting!
She's sure there's a few people a little surprised to see a girl her age, with a soft sweet voice like she has to help with this assignment, but she's no stranger to raising that voice or putting her foot down, and it helps that she remembers a little bit of how T-Set went about things, that particular dismissive swagger that they'd use as part of their gimmick. That's what she teaches them, with surprising accuracy: how to be a bitch, how to look down on people, how to make it clear that who you're talking to barely deserves to kiss your toes. And she's going to drill them on it!
If there's anything that her own stint in show business showed her, it's that you have to practice until it's second nature, until the muscle memory is there as well as the one in your head. Her corrections are given sweetly, softly, politely... but they're given. Bad posture or the wrong tilt to a hip or wandering eyes will earn you a comment.
"You can't look away, Kaoru-san." She'd learned that from her fan events. "Part of what they're paying for is your attention, the weight of your eyes. And you can't figure out your next step if you're looking away..."
If you stick around, though, she'll also provide a few skin and haircare tips that she picked up during her stint in Sotenbori.

LOOK AT THIS SWEET JACKET
She wasn't really looking to help anyone in particular when the man approaches her, but once she hears the request, she cannot help but realize that there's more to it than what he's saying. She agrees... but she asks for a moment to investigate.
That will have her going onto the bridge by herself and crouching down near the sides to look for the youkai who've been troubling him. Onlookers will see her asking-
"Can I speak to you, please?"
And once she's gotten the story, she'll go back to the man and do her best to convince him that there are better places to walk than the bridge.
"Wouldn't your jacket look more stylish in a park? When you walk on the bridge, the reflections from the water takes away from the shine..."
When that doesn't work-
"All this talking is making me hungry. If we go to the SMILE burger, I'll get you a burger..."
...and she'll be trying to get sauce on his jacket so he'll go and get it dry cleaned and stop him from focusing so much on this walk and the jacket in the meantime.

WELCOME TO THE NIGHT PARADE
With everything to do, and with Haruka's dedication to helping every way she can, she ends up doing two tasks for the upcoming Night Parade:
For one, she's helping with decorations. Having lived in a house with nine kids, she's no stranger to putting up decorations for various celebrations, and as much as she's busting her ass to get things up and going, she's doing just as much to keep morale up and to cheer on and assist everyone else. She's getting her work done, but she's also going to be there if you're also helping, offering an extra set of hands or telling you-
"That looks great. Thank you!"
Job two is going around to the various businesses, a little clip board in hand as she speaks to the various business owners or whoever is willing to come to the door. She keeps her head up, her tone friendly, her smile on, but she's not below checking windows and slipping around back to make sure she can get someone to speak to if a shop is being difficult. She also won't take half-assed answers and she's taking notes!
...but at least she's cute and polite about it?

yarnzipan for plotting!
looking forward to it!
"Hell as a restaurant! I suppose we should be glad that there aren't flies in our soup." He ponders this. "On second thought, given where we are, maybe our soup would have nobusuma instead..?"
... That would definitely be even weirder. Anyway, they have some decorating to do! Ideally without getting their blood sucked out by flying squirrel youkai.
