[ It had been a complete accident.

The fact that she was now at his bedside just waiting for him to wake up after getting hit hard in the head was definitely not a part of today's plans for her, but he seemed to be relatively fine otherwise.

So now all she could do, really, was wait. ]

[dereban]

. . . I have to ask.

You're able to access all his memories?

[spacialeyes]

Yes. All of them.

1 / 2

[dereban]

All of them, huh...

2 / 2

[dereban]

Wait, if you can see all of them, then... Ahh, I'm going to die of embarrassment, just end me now...!

[spacialeyes]

I assure you that I feel the same and will refrain from making this any more awkward than it already is. The physical pursuits of a relationship are a novelty I did not expect.

[dereban]

...I appreciate that. [ Inaba is definitely red in the face now, though. ] I'll save my screaming into a pillow for later, at least.

[spacialeyes]

And I shall leave that to Yuuto.

[On that note, the kami does attempt to stand- With some difficulty, with him needing to use the belt tail to balance himself.]

It should only be his head that has suffered substantial damage at least.

[dereban]

That does seem to be the case at least. Do you need anything? I can make something for us to eat.

[spacialeyes]

... As in, food?

[He opens his mouth and puts a finger experimentally on one of his teeth. For this kami, the idea of eating is a novelty.]

Is eating easy?

[dereban]

Yes, as in food.

What, did you think I was going to ask you to eat something that wasn't food?

[ inaba, ]

I would like to say that it is easy enough.

[spacialeyes]

This can be as awkward as you'd like for it to be, Inaba-san.

[He nods slowly.]

Alright. I do know how to use my power for cooking, but I've never done it before.

[dereban]

How can you say that with a straight face... at least drop the honorific.

[...]

It's fine. I won't force you to do anything; I can at least handle this much.

[spacialeyes]

It would be inappropriate of me to assume familiarity, but if you insist, "Inaba."

[He nods again.]

I am not opposed to assisting, but if you do not mind. I would appreciate help in maintaining the health of this body until your 'Yuuto' can wake up.

[dereban]

You're not referring to me by my first name, so it's fine.

[...]

I'm surprised you'd refer to him like that, though.

[spacialeyes]

What do you mean?

[dereban]

Ah, it's just... given your speech patterns, I would have thought that you would just refer to Yuuto normally. But you said that he's mine, which has different connotations.

[spacialeyes]

Do you not agree that he's become 'your' Yuuto?

[dereban]

It's not that... I thought you would have said something more along the lines of "this world's Yuuto", instead.

[spacialeyes]

I do not think that this world has a Yuuto. Satou and Shugo never conceived him here. And the visiting Yuuto is not permanently attached to this world. He leaves eventually.

[dereban]

Are you allowed to tell me spoilers like that?

[spacialeyes]

Did you think that he could stay here forever?

[dereban]

If that was what he wanted.

[spacialeyes]

Well... I apologize for 'spoiling' you. It is likely that he will quickly become aware once the issues here are resolved.

[dereban]

[ And that's when she reaches out and pulls at his cheeks without saying anything. ]

[spacialeyes]

HIMEKO?
