He perks up at the mention of her room. If she intends to keep whatever he makes for her, then maybe he can do a little more.]
Ah, is there anything that you want? How about a comb or hair adornment? There are some cute accessories in my world. I can buy you one and bring it on my first visit.
[People from the mansion and camp are truly too nice.]
Then I'll show you around when it's bright! Depending on the city, you can find all sorts of stores and meet more people than you can count. Sounds fun, right?
[He figured she'd like that. Her reaction makes him look forward to that future—if he'll even be alive by then.]
I was in the countryside before I came here, but I'll invite you the next time I'm near a city. I'm constantly moving around, so I'll be able to take you to a bunch of places.
[Maybe he'll become a demon's dinner. There's no guarantee.]
Yeah. That part of the country isn't as modernized. It's quiet, especially at night when it gets dark. But you won't see green fields on the side of the road near the city as you would near a village.
They're mostly crops tended by farmers. If you venture out farther into the wild like the mountains and hills, though, you can find other plants like flowers; there were lots of them in the hill near where I was staying a year ago.
[Well, he thinks, a demon might dine on his brain.]
I left not too long ago, you know? The Corps doesn't joke around. As soon as you finish one job, they assign you another one in an entirely different area. And there's no way a demon would last long enough for me to be assigned with Gramps there.
[In other words, he has to wonder if the Corps allows vacations.]

[Flayn has not really thought about it.]
Mostly, what I want is to be able to see you again.
[She says, as though this is a completely normal thing to say. (To her, it is!)]
no subject
Y-you do?
I'll visit as many times as you want, but there must be something. A cute girl like you deserves that much . . . !
CA heatwaves melt my brain. weeps.
[Just his company is enough!!]
...but perhaps if you show me around your world, I will see something I like?
[She is absolutely not going to ask him for anything except permission to visit. She's not going to take advantage of him like his exes, thanks!]
you shall have my fan—and my ac.

MY FAN AT HOME DIED LAST NIGHT AND I CRIED.
[more people than she can count sounds awesome...]

no subject
I will be very much looking forward to it! ...what is the countryside like, in your world? Is it peaceful?
no subject
Yeah. That part of the country isn't as modernized. It's quiet, especially at night when it gets dark. But you won't see green fields on the side of the road near the city as you would near a village.
no subject
The fields must be beautiful, in their own way. What sorts of things grow out there?
no subject
They're mostly crops tended by farmers. If you venture out farther into the wild like the mountains and hills, though, you can find other plants like flowers; there were lots of them in the hill near where I was staying a year ago.
no subject
Really? What sorts of flowers?
no subject
All sorts of them. Last time, I picked some lilies on the way up. If I ever go back there, I'll make an arrangement for you.
no subject
If you go when I visit, perhaps we could go together?
no subject
Actually, that's where Gramps lives. I can introduce him to you, but it'll be a while before I go there and see him again.
no subject
[His Gramps seems like a great person. She'd love to meet him, actually.]
Is there some reason why it will be a while, though?
