[His laughing embarrasses her but she's actually secretly glad for it too.]
I wo-!
[And then she gets really red about stars aligning and seeing how fit he is. At first she presses her hands to the table, stands up halfway with her mouth open. But she sits back in her seat slowly and pinches the bridge of her nose, sighing. Fighting the urge to laugh incredulously. One step at a time. At least she isn't flying off the handle now. She supposed... maybe... in another universe, it could be possible. In another world. Maybe in that other place he wasn't a blatant pervert.
Endurance.
Or maybe he's just too honest, now that she thinks about it. Not perverted. He had some shame or he wouldn't blush. There was such a thing now that she's met this person. Either way once he makes his decision, she lowers her hand and attempts a smile.]
Alright. It sounds like Ninja-san knows a thing or two about tea.
[LALALA She calls someone over and orders the green tea for Nagi pls thank you.
And now she looks shy, drumming her fingers a little on her cup.]
I suppose I should get to the heart of the matter now. I wouldn't want to take up your entire evening. [CLEARS HER THROAT.]
I don't think I've been a very good friend or sister figure to you. [Telling him about SAO that (at its core despite what she gained) was a horrible situation and should be left behind and not placed on anyone else's shoulders, that somehow he felt that he had to watch out for Sei if there was ever a time when she and Jin weren't here, and saying she wanted to help Nagi with finding Hijiri and not doing anything since.
She's good with the scolding, she knows, but anything else... ?]
I've burdened you with too much without giving anything back so... I've decided. [DETERMINED FACE] Right now, we're going to figure out how to save Hijiri-san. So when the time comes, you'll be prepared even if I'm not here.
HOW DID HE GET PAST JIN'S WAIFU IN DANGER SENSE
