[Oh, is this how it works...?

[Request accepted.]

That sounds fun... oh, actually, what is your favorite food, Shrike-san? I don't think I know.

Mm... you know, I'm not exactly sure? I do know I like chocolate, and while we make a lot of noodles at avante, I think I probably like... well, I like noodles, but could probably use more dumplings.

Chocolate...? Oh, me too! I probably eat too much chocolate, actually...

Oh, why don't we go to the department store? There's lots of places that serve food there. I'm sure we'd be able to find dumplings there.

Ah, great idea... I've been there once but I'm a little nervous finding my way around, so it's good to have a friend with me.

Would you like to, er—hold hands for a bit while we head there? That's easy enough.

Of course I would, Shrike-san. We wouldn't have to be playing a game for that, if you wanted.

[She takes Shrike's hand as they head for the doors.]

It shouldn't take long to get there if we give ourselves a bit of a boost, but - well, I wouldn't want to just use a power on someone. So I thought I'd ask.

Oh, um—I don't think I've ever actually had that one used on me before, but I think it should be fine, then...

Really? If you're okay with trying, then...

[She squeezes her hand, as if to make passing the power on feel more like... well, anything.]

But it's not really that exciting. I just didn't want to forget myself and try and run off, or something.

[ that gets a laugh. ]

I'm really sure you wouldn't. So—let's go, then?

[ and experimentally, she takes a step. ]

Let's go.

[To the Department Store it is - it shouldn't take long like this.]

Maybe there's something else we can do while we're there, too? I suppose some of the others aren't that bad.

Oh, that's probably true... if there's an activity you'd like to do, or... see a movie, or...?

Hmm... how about I pamper you, or something? I could do your nails, if you were okay with that.

Oh—

[ surprise, ]

That'd be... nice, actually. I've never had anything like that done before...

Really? Not at all?

Well, there's a nail bar in the store, so I'll just borrow one of the stations when we get there. They'll probably have some water decals and gems and things, so I can do something a bit elaborate. It's much easier to do these things for someone else, after all.

Mm... it's just not really a thing I've ever done, I guess.

...maybe it's just that I find that sort of thing a little intimidating.

[ there's a little bit of... embarrassment, maybe, at not really knowing how to fit in. ]

But is it something you'd like to do, Shrike-san? I can show you how if you like.

Oh, I mean—I think it'd be nice, I just...

...well, I'm not used to it, but that doesn't mean I don't think I'd like it. I don't do many things like that for myself.

Then I'll show you how, and - well, there'll be things in the store you could get, if it's something you'd like to do at home. It's nice to take time for yourself every now and again.

[Ah-- here we are. She stops short at the doors.]

Shall we go in?

Ah—let's, then. I'm in your capable hands.

[ she's got a little bit of anticipatory trepidation about her, but it's really faded since now she's more just... happy than anything else.

god being able to feel happiness is wild!! when did this start happening, ]

It's on the third floor, so we can just go straight there. Do you have any colors you particularly like? I could do something with those.
