It's been a week since we've all lived here, and things are going pretty smoothly. We've all gotten into a rhythm of our days, and we are doing well financially. Today, it was a bit brisk out, so I decided to go for a walk around Hamazushi.
"Ah, feels good to get some air in my lungs!"
From behind me, Sosei chimes out. I turn around to face her.
"Hey, Sosei. What're you doing?"
"Oh, I was gonna follow ya!"
If it were anyone else saying that to me, I'd be more than a bit worried, but this is Sosei, so I know she won't harm me, right?
"Well, I was just going to walk around Hamazushi. Do you still want to come?"
"Sure, why not?"
With that, we head out, and start to walk. I very quickly notice that she is not wearing a jacket, and dressed rather lightly.
"Um... Sosei, are you sure you're not going to be cold?"
"Ha! Silly Hoshi! I'm always cold! I'm dead, remember?"
Oh yeah. I guess my worries were misplaced then.
As we walk, we chat about things, thoughts, whatever comes to mind. I do, however, notice that's she's gradually slowing down as we walk.
"Hey, Sosei, you're slowing down, are you good?"
"A-ah! Y-yeah! I'm fine!"
I have never heard this girl stutter, so she must be lying to me. I, of course, use object creation to make Sosei her own coat to wear. I go to hand her the coat.
"Here, put it on."
"I-I'm fine! I don't need it!"
"Stop lying and put it on!"
After hearing me raise my voice, she complies, and puts on the coat. It's a long, black coat with a basic design, but it really suits her.
"So, how do I look, eh?"
"You look great! The black really suits you!"
"Yeah, it kinda does! I prefer red, but this is great!"
Well, at least I know her favorite colour for future reference. We continue on our walk, and as I expected, what remains of her body heat warms her up, and she starts to match her original pace.
Once we return home, we're greeted by Hana.
"Hi! Where were you two?"
"We were just walking around town."
Hana smiles, and then pulls away Sosei, who gives me a face which is just begging for mercy, before flashing me a toothy grin.
Ito then approaches me, and brings me to the table, where she gives me a cup of tea.
"You can make tea?"
