[ 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. ]

He’s me, so of course I’m curious.

[dereban]

Curiosity killed the cat.

[spacialeyes]

Immortal being.

[dereban]

What do I get out of telling you?

[spacialeyes]

I can tell you if it is impossible?

[dereban]

Then you hear nothing from me.

[spacialeyes]

[He laughs.] I thought as much. You aren’t really one for impossibilities.

[dereban]

Is it really that funny...?

[spacialeyes]

You’re just as I remember… It feels strange. I’ve never had someone to remember before.

[dereban]

It feels like I'm being bullied now...

[spacialeyes]

I’ve never gotten to bully anyone before either!

[dereban]

Why is that something you're excited to do!?

[spacialeyes]

I’m not necessarily happy for the bullying, just…! It feels like we’re close..?

[He does seem to wilt with shyness in a similar way to someone else who uses this body.]

Being in love is such a strange feeling.

[dereban]

That doesn't make it any better, you idiot.

[spacialeyes]

Is banter not a sign of closeness to you?

[dereban]

It is... but it is a bit embarrassing.

[spacialeyes]

But if memory serves me correctly, being teased and bullied feels good?

[Being a masochist is not a universal experience -]

[dereban]

Just because Yuuto likes it doesn't mean that I do!

[spacialeyes]

I understand. [Or at least, he’ll try to.

His belt begins to sway again as he considers,] Compliments..? I recall your Yuuto compliments you frequently as a form of affection. Even if he keeps many of his thoughts to himself, he is often overly honest.

[dereban]

... I am happy with compliments if they hold meaning. What, did you want to try it or something?

[spacialeyes]

Would that be alright? I wonder if complimenting you is indecent for someone who is kami…

[He brings his hands together as he considers it.]

Though… It’s not as though you will ‘tattle’ on me, correct?

[dereban]

... It's fine. And even if I told Yuuto, I don't think it matters that much.

[spacialeyes]

I imagine he will be flustered… After all, I am ‘tattling’ on him in a way. I’ve seen you through the lens of his heart.

[The kami tilts his head to one side and closes his eyes, seeming to be having a strange sort of fun with this game of affection.]

… You have a very nice voice, Himeko.

[dereban]

It's fine if he's flustered. It'll give me a nice leg up.

[ Inaba....... ]

Hmm. Is that all?

[spacialeyes]

I recall your singing on many occasions and your voice was quite lovely to hear. Though for Yuuto, his memories and wants may have blurred together in an unreliable manner.
