... [ a small hum of acknowledgement. ] Fair. I know a lot of people don't care for them. [ several of the aforementioned people are on her team, in fact. ] I get it. [ she tries to 'play nice' with everybody though, because that's just the kind of person she is, but she totally gets not liking people. it happens. ]

I guess it must have been kind of... bad to make you worry about her, huh? And there's nothing wrong with that; worrying. You were just looking out for a friend. Obviously if they were both coming to you they must not have really cared about the consequences, but it was nice of you to look out for her, even if they clearly didn't think so. I've had friends look out for me even when I was like c'mon, really, since I, ah, sometimes do first and think later. [ she gently knocks on her own head. ] And I'm glad for it every time.

Because you're a good friend, Kaguya. [ she tugs her closer, turning her head to brush her lips along the side of her head. ] A great friend, even. Did you know what you were getting in to when you agreed to meet?
