[ She laughs softly, and she turns so her back is facing Love and clasps her hands together. It's her usual pose that she falls back into while being pensive or idling. ]
For you and for him. It's the power and the timing. If it were any other power during any other week, I'd be irritated, but I wouldn't have been furious.
[ ... ]
I took your hand on Saturday. You don't know, but that was a hard, conscious decision. Even though I felt the way I did, I wouldn't take someone's hand like that unless I meant it. I promised Satsuki-chan I'd hold her hand forever.
[ Nonon may have picked Love to follow at first for different reasons, but her holding someone's hand in that way is a pledge of loyalty. ]
[She considers that for a few moments. She had received the sense that it was a big and important thing for her even if she didn't know the reasons why. She understood that Nonon didn't immediately trust, so to hear this now...]
It was a really rotten move. Every time someone goes after one of you guys for anything, it makes me so mad that I can't do anything. But even so, you guys fight to stay. I want to be the best for you all...we're here together. So I never want to give any of you a reason to doubt me, or each other.
...Yu-Senpai is a little like you that way. It takes time for him to extend his hand, too, but when he does it's worth it.
It was one of the things I wanted Ray to work on. It's funny because he and Zoe were friends, and you and Senpai had a good relationship...and Sieg-kun was the outlier. It worked out that you ended up getting to know each other. I hope even when you're split up you keep talking to each other.
It's a compliment, Nonon-san, I promise. [A laugh.] When he's not being so...reckless, he's really sweet and really smart and loyal.
Most of them are fine. I don't really mind any of them.
[ That's her saying sure, she'll talk to them.
She makes a face. ]
I like reckless and smart, not reckless and dumb. [ She sighs. ] He doesn't really hide those sides of him either. He gallivants to help as many people as he can.
[ The implication of her tone is you won't catch her doing that. ]
That sounds about right. My grandma's cat used to do the same thing, but all of the cats lingering around Senpai's house and the riverbank stayed for a long time. Maybe if we bribe him he'll stay longer.
Reminds me of someone else I know...here, take Rollo for a sec? [She hands off the cat, and it takes a few moments but she soon uses her godly powers to charm up a wind-up mouse for him to chase.]

All cats are cute. Fact. ]
Mm. I saw him Tuesday morning. He was.... [ in a bad way. ] But it also gives me a bad feeling for the rest of the week.
[ There's a beat, and she adds softly: ]
I was really angry.
[ She still kind of is. ]
no subject
...we talked, too. I think he's still deciding where to go, but I've been getting that feeling, too. Not a great start.
[She tilts her head though.] Angry? Because someone used a power on him?

[ She knows it's different for each of them. ]

I'm still surprised Ludger-san agreed to this. [Chinscratches for Rollo.]

[ She shrugs. ]
I think he expects Rollo to leave on his own sooner or later because cats always do what they want.
