[ In the evening, when Milla comes inside, Akane is lounging around. As per usual. But she sits up quickly, like she's excited to see Milla! Which is. A little weird, given that things have been a little tense with the memory and thought sharing... ]
Anyway, there's some glitter in her hair, still, but with how much usually pours down in that gateway, it seems like... Someone must have already helped her get out what they could? And she nods. ]
Milla stares at Akane for a moment, as if trying to divine whatever new partner stuff this might be. But she's not feeling it? So maybe it's legit? That would be nice.]
Busy, hmm? You must be having an enjoyable time with your partner and friends. What is keeping you so occupied?
No, just... I mean that gateway. It's too busy over there with all the circus stuff for me to want to spend my time there. I prefer things to be a little more mellow.
I need to view the special ability of a user of each element. So far, I have fire and water—I have yet to view the abilities of an air and earth. My goal is to work towards staying awake on a Thursday evening. That is the goal of my task.
Would you show me your own ability, in order to help protect others?
I wouldn't waste your time. It's so hard to know where something is going to happen... Me and Ookurikara-san both tried staying up and neither of us saw anything.
Ookurikara and yourself? [Milla blinks in surprise, but overall, she just seems impressed.] You continue to find ways to surprise and amaze me, Akane. How did you manage that?
[but also:]
Thank you very much, Akane. I know it may seem like a waste of effort, considering your own experience in the matter, but I do feel it is worth to try nonetheless—especially as I am nearly complete.

These ones are apparently about various animals and plants, although there's a novel here and there. Is that The DaVinci Code? Whatever.]
You seem to be in a rather good mood, Akane.

And it made me happy.

Have you been off exploring the new gateway today?

... A little bit. It's kind of... Busy, for me.

Yes, there is much to take in. I can't say it's particularly caught my interest. Lately, I have found that the easiest place to relax is right here.
[...]
Akane, I have a favor to ask—although I do understand if you are reluctant to fulfill it. It's to do with a task for Sol. Will you hear my request?
