(AN: Back to Yomu now~ I hope you enjoyed Tazia's POV in the past chapters.)

Hm. Did I hear that right?

A kiss for Himeno....? Not even just her, but Tazia too? What happened during that mission? Denji looked conflicted as Himeno made fun of him, but I was actually genuinely confused. I placed my cup down, and I gave Denji some advice.

"...Pick wisely, Denji..." I told the boy. I suppose if he was going to kiss someone, it should be..... Himeno...

She's dead drunk right now, and I know her very well enough that kissing her right now would lead to.... something bad.

On the other hand, I believe Tazia hasn't even had her first kiss yet, assumingly.

Looking at the blonde, he seemed to fall into even more of a dilemma. Who knows what the boy was thinking? I changed my glance to Tazia, and she seemed to be in the same boat. Yoimiya seemed to be bugging Tazia into embarrassment, so I thought that was quite wholesome.

"Excuse me, another beer please." Makima ordered, breaking me out of my thoughts. Wow, she was just downing glasses left and right. Though after this much drinks, I could tell that she was unaffected by the alcohol.

"So what's this about a kiss?"
"You don't want a kiss...?"
"I suppose I owe you a... kiss..."

Wow, all three of them simultaneously? Well aren't you the ladies' man. I could almost say I was impressed.

"Come on Denji, spill the beans." I grilled the boy. He seemed to make a split decision in that moment.

"U-Uh! Makima! Did you hear?! I picked up one of those Gun Devil whatchamacallits!" He suddenly proclaimed. Makima simply smiled in response.

"Mmm, yep. You're amazing Denji." She praised him. I scooted a little closer to Tazia to talk to her, but Himeno leaned against me instead.

"Wah?! Yomuuuu~"

She presses all of her weight into me, and instinctively I just hugged her to keep her standing upright, or else.... Ugh, I get flashbacks from a couple of our previous outings...

"Himeno... why did you drink so much?" I sighed. She turned around and faced me.

"Ehhhh~ Why do you care?" She sulked. "You never let me drink as much as I want!" Himeno refuted.

No.. It's because I don't want you puking all over me like you always do.... Saves both of us the hassle...

"Come on..." She begged me. I sighed.

"Fine... Just don't say I didn't warn you..." I rolled my eyes. Himeno gave me an expressive look and smiled widely.

"That calls for a beer then!"

Drinking habits, Himeno. Drinking habits....

Disregarding the drunk woman sitting on my lap, I look over to Aki who was drinking too. My sister seemed to strike up some sort of conversation. Makima had finished another glass.

"...Pardon me, two more beers." Aki called the server. Himeno raised her hands in joy as she sat with me.

"Aha! I'll join yoooou! One more!" She added.

"Himeno! You just finished one just now! Segment your drinking!" I scolded.

"Tis' fine! You sound like my mother!" She teased. I deadpanned.  Another serving arrived, and the smell of alcohol was growing bigger and bigger.

This restaurant doesn't sell soju, so for me anything else is a hard pass. I feel like Himeno's gonna go upside down today, so I'm not drinking tonight. Water has done it for now, like always. Though to be honest, I will take some karaage.
