[ She snorts out a laugh and shakes her head slowly. The question put her in a better mood, at least, since she looks back over at him with the kind of smirk on her face that makes you want to slap it off. ]

Do you really want me to answer that?

[eyescar]

I think that was answer enough.

[ Damn... Right to the heart, huh...? Yuji sighs, shaking his head. ]

Cold!

[ She can't deny that. Even when she shouldn't be, her replies are always freezing. Who's to say that ice might not flood and drown others if she were even a little bit warmer? ]

I'm only teasing. Sorry. [ Maybe she should pray for more compassion while she's here. If Kannon will even entertain such a prayer. ] Thanks for coming with me.

[ It's not as if Yuji minds... His best friend is Megumi, after all. ]

It's fine. It's been fun, just to walk around a little bit.

[saudadist]

You're pretty easy to please.

[ This time she's not teasing, despite how the comment might seem. She's actually smiling too much to keep up the grouchy facade. ]

Guess I should get you some taiyaki after this as a thanks.

[eyescar]

You think so?

[ He's always been that way, so... That's just how it is. ]

You don't have to do that, but I'd be happy to hang out more.

[saudadist]

I don't have to, but I want to. [ Huff ] So there.

[ As they draw closer to the main shrine, she bites her lip in thought. Unlike her last visit to a temple, she's not sure whether it's right to offer a prayer of apology. What if it winds up being the same as the other one? Wouldn't using a similar prayer upset the spirits? Or is she thinking about it too hard? ]
