[foundfate]

For anything from the 2nd trial onwards!

[fullbodied]

Yeah... But we can both acknowledge it's a shitty situation, right?

[she's a little relieved at that, especially after the hug.]

And it's not fair.

[foundfate]

[Yeah, that is very true. He'll warm up gradually as well, he's just had a taxing day.]

...it really isn't, but it falls in line with the rules of the world of spirits, which aren't really fair to begin with. So I really shouldn't be expecting fairness.

[fullbodied]

[she hates this...]

And you have to go through this as long as the game is going. So until we're either all dead, or someone's won-- or resigned.

You're not gonna play this game again, are you?

[foundfate]

Definitely not, this game is the worst.

[fullbodied]

Promise?

[she holds up her pinky.]

[foundfate]

[He blinks at the pinky for a moment, looking confused. And possibly a touch flustered.]

Er...what? I'm not really asking that?

[fullbodied]

Just promise that you're not going to do another game again.

[she's insisting, sorry, watanuki]

[foundfate]

Fine, fine, I won't do another game like this one.

[He's a little flustered now though.]

[fullbodied]

[she's still holding up her pinky.

sorry, he's not getting out of this.]

You're not more prickly than Ryuji, c'mooooon.

[foundfate]

That gesture has a different connotation in my world, you know. It's basically you asking to be my girlfriend.

[fullbodied]

What?

It's a pinky promise!

[foundfate]

Well that doesn't change the fact that gestures mean different things in different places!

[fullbodied]

I have to re-evaluate my priors here.

Alright, guess we'll do this the American way.

[she holds out a hand to shake.]

[foundfate]

[...WELL OK

A handshake it is.]

[fullbodied]

[GOOD, THIS IS HIS WORD TO HER.

she looks a little relieved.

and then winks at him]

But I bet you wish I was serious about that girlfriend thing.

[foundfate]

Not at all!

[His face says otherwise.]

[fullbodied]

Weeeeeell, to even get me to consider it, no more -san.

I think it's only fair, y'know.

[said with the most charming of smiles]

[foundfate]

Fine, Ann-dono.

[He's joking. He is 100% joking there.

Also look at that charming smile to match.]

[fullbodied]

Hey! No way!

... Though you'd be surprised at the number of men who'd believe I am some sort of noblewoman.

[she pauses.]

But you know, you're cute when you smile.

[foundfate]

[Quickly WAVING HER OFF because talking about his positive traits is embarrassing.]

You should have taken a picture, I rarely smile.

But if you don't want -san, do you want -chan instead? Or no honorific at all?

[fullbodied]

Just Ann is fine.

And if I need to take a picture...

[she pulls out her cell phone.]

I can make that happen.

[foundfate]

I was joking, you know.

[He isn't saying 'no' to the picture, though. SELFIE TIME?]

[fullbodied]

Too bad I wasn't.

So you better smile!

[she's definitely turning to take a selfie with him. IT'S HAPPENING.]

[foundfate]

[THAT SURE IS A SELFIE

And Ann better appreciate this picture, because of how human Watanuki looks in it. He's a little shy and reluctant to open up to the camera, but there's a bit of a smile and he lifts his hand in a small wave.

There's no trace of the Witch of Dimensions here, no hint of the shopkeeper who deals in magic and favors. This is 100% Watanuki Kimihiro, a teenage dumbass who regularly finds himself in way over his head and still desires to be a normal human sometimes.]

[fullbodied]

[Ann holds up a victory sign, but she's a practiced selfie-taker. Her smile is natural, and somehow radiating, even with a shitty camera photo.

So when she turns the phone back to her to see, she lets out a laugh]

Aww-- honestly, I almost like this photo more than the charming smile you just gave me.

... Hey. So, does this mean you're not mad at me, anymore?
