[She was prepared for the conversation to swing back towards Dazai. Maybe some talk with someone who understood would help him figure himself out or at least set him on a positive path. That's how things usually go and she's not even resentful of it: Love is a choice and it makes her happy to help.
Instead, her ears are getting red as she hears the conversation turning back towards her. Even if she's a kami of love with two men in her life, it's embarrassing to hear. Maybe because she's that kami and not used to being talked about like this in public. Most conversations end with her being asked to help someone. Not with helping her.


It's embarrassing. But a nice change. How long has it even been since someone wanted to talk to her, and not the incredibly power inside of her?]



W, well. Since you're also excluded from humanity, I suppose... You're not one of the people that I need to protect. [Wow, she hates how childish that sounds.

At least, not beyond her own confession,] I don't need my kami powers to kick a man in the face, though. W, watch yourself. I have kids in that crowd.

Kami don't give violent answers!]



What I'm saying is-- Thank you for the sentiment! [Most girls don't confuse 'thank you' with a threat to kick someone's face, but okay.]
