Okay, let's practice! The next time you see him, what do you say?

Start with a compliment!

[omegathree]

[ He seems to short-circuit, looking panicked and uncomfortable.]

You... Yeah...

[ Despite that his "yeah" is self-satisfied. ]

[specialdog]

What does "yeah" mean? He's not gonna understand that, he's gonna think you didn't have anything to say!

Then he might think you didn't even want to talk to him in the first place.

[omegathree]

I'd rather talk to him about anything else. I don't see why I should start with a compliment.

[specialdog]

To set the mood!

[omegathree]

A mood doesn't need to be set!

[specialdog]

Then you're not gonna court him at all? [ she's teasing! playfully!!! it's fine! ] Scaredy cat.

[omegathree]

[ He'll spend this whole week yearning over Lea. It's. Fine. ]

... Perhaps.

[specialdog]

Come on, you have the perfect excuse! In a week you get to tell him "Oops, it was magic!" and you get a free pass!

[ excuse...... for what........ akane ]

[omegathree]

Excuse? Excuse for what, lass?

[specialdog]

To flirt! [ aggressively! ]

[omegathree]

I'm not going to do that.

[specialdog]

No? But what if he liked you back?

[omegathree]

You think he would?

[specialdog]

Why wouldn't he?

[omegathree]

I'm 2542 and I have two people at home.

[specialdog]

[ She shrugs at the age part, because whatever. He's a young adult by demon vampire standards!

But, uh. ]

Two?

[omegathree]

Fenrich and Artina.

[He sounds like he misses them both]

[specialdog]

Mm... But everything that happens here is just temporary, anyway. Assuming we make it out of this alive, we all get sent back to our homes, so it's not like who you have waiting for you changes things, does it? You'll just get separated in the end, anyway.

[ uh, that sure is one way of looking at things. ]

[omegathree]

[ it's sure something, alright. ]

It's that how you feel about Minato?

[specialdog]

[ . . . she probably wouldn't answer quite so honestly for anyone else. ]

Yeah.

[omegathree]

[The funny thing about Val is as long as someone has convictions, he's not going to go around judging them. With Akane, he's certain she's being honest about her reasoning.]

I'm glad you have strong opinions on the subject.

[specialdog]

[ That's why she likes you! ]

Aaanywaaaay, that's why you should be trying to hit it off with Axel-san!

[omegathree]

I'll keep your reasoning in mind, but I cannot promise I'll do anything.

[Except embarrass himself all week.]
