[It's strange. The last time someone held their hand out to the true Furina, with the claims that they're a "stranger" to her life and thus could make it easier to open up... well. She'd been trapped like a rabbit in a snare and put on trial. The last time she trusted someone with her true self, she'd had everything she worked for during the past five hundred years stripped away. Furina could scoff and roll her eyes now, and double down on her flamboyant persona and probably still give Inaba a good show.
... But it feels different from when Lumine reached her hand out. Even putting aside their current activities, Inaba's just... been nice to her. Teasing, but nice.]
... Haha...
[When she laughs this time, there's much less of that haughty air to her.]
It is rather silly. But your sentiment is... very much appreciated. I'll see what I can do.
[Because when it's her choice to do so, she loves acting like this. It's fun when she can just play, and not force herself into a role that's the one thing stopping her entire nation from crumbling into the sea.]
