If it's understanding, I wouldn't be surprised if it were... superficial.

[loveedition]

At least, nobody outwardly--

[ ...nope. Run that back. ]

Probably. You're right.

[dereban]

If I'm right, then that's an immediate cause for concern.

[ She sighs. ]

[loveedition]

...

Honestly. I wouldn't worry. The worst thing that should happen is someone chewing you out. Other than that, you're safe. It might be okay.

[dereban]

... Ah, well. Depending on how that conversation goes, it might not end well.

[ Inaba Himeko: has read her future and knows herself well enough that she's aware just how fragile she truly is. If she weren't, she wouldn't be in this spot right now.

She's such a weak coward, after all. ]

[loveedition]

Well, if it doesn't, that's where I'll step in.

Asakura-san doesn't need to transform to get rid of nightmares, you know.

[ This. Might be the most she's smiled in days, but it's definitely a little less pleasant? ]

[dereban]

...Oh, you're really reliable, aren't you?

[ She recognizes what kind of smile that is, given that it's not something that Inaba herself hasn't done. ]

[loveedition]

Of course. Like I said, I do my best not to let my friends down. If someone tries to belittle their feelings to their face, they'll hear from me.

[ Words, an expression, and other such things that may cut like a knife. ]

[dereban]

...thank you. For that, and well -- I guess, for. Uh. [ She rubs her neck, a little awkwardly. ] Considering me a friend.

[loveedition]

[ With that unpleasantness out of the way, her smile softens. ]

Not a problem. Although, you don't really need to thank me for that last part.
