After reviewing some properties of the background geometry for the propagations, we investigate the solutions considering static and dynamic regimes. In the former case we obtain the so-called Love numbers, or more generally scalar polarizability. In the latter case, we employ boundary conditions analogous to the computation of quasi-normal modes, and argue that the background geometry acts as a classical high-pass filter. We therefore provide further evidence that the scalar black hole analogues can be analyzed similarly to a black hole.
