[She appreciates that he doesn't ask. It's not something she'd readily share, but then again, it's something she doesn't have to share. Everyone around her has always known it, until now. It's not hiding away from it, she just... won't talk about it to just anyone. Which is understandable, see rumour mill.

She smiles a fraction at that.]

I plan to. I will make a difference, somehow.

[She has strength in that conviction.]

[> Lucina seems to have at least some form of trust in you.

> Through talking with her, and seeing her perspective, you feel like you've made the first step towards beginning to understand your acquaintance...



Thou art I...
And I am thou...
Thou hast established a new bond that transcends one journey to the next...
Thou shalt be blessed with further aid from the Strength Arcana...

> You have established the Lucina Social Link of the Strength Arcana!

...Transcending one journey to the next, huh...was there more than what he'd seen that day? Maybe...the future was always uncertain, after all. But he can think about that later.]

[...Oh, right, their food. It was probably convenient that they took great care in preparing their signature dishes -- they wouldn't have had so much room to talk otherwise.]

...Ah, our food's ready. [He watches as the owner proceeds to put their bowls down, along with the rest of their orders.] Shall we?

[falchions]

Thank you. [Lucina offers to the owner, who smiles before retreating back down the bar to see to another order. It's as he goes that Lucina turns back to Souji.] Let's, before it gets cold.

[Despite mentioning that she hadn't eaten food like this in sometime, she certainly seems efficient enough. And she's certainly a polite eater. Table manners, they're important, lessons courtesy of Maribelle, even if it's not the best she could possibly do. It's so ingrained it's second nature now.

She takes a few mouthfuls before she chuckles to herself.]

It is as good as it smells.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[He couldn't help but laugh a little as he watched her for a while, before swallowing a couple mouthfuls of his own.] I told you it wouldn't disappoint.

[Not that he thought she didn't believe him -- it was just emphasis on how much he enjoyed dropping by. Money well spent, if you asked him.]

[falchions]

I'll believe you for next time.

[There's a smile, an actual geniune one, not just one for politeness, though it soon fades because Souji you had to introduce her to Aiya this place is amazing I have to eat the whole bowl one minute. Or several minutes. Like ten.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[It really wouldn't surprise him if she wanted to stick around for a while longer. If it managed to attract him, his sports club buddies, his fellow team members and his classmates, you just know it's good.

He returns her smile with his own subtle one again, before going on with his meal just as slowly, just to extend the amount of time they'd have for chitchat about normal things. And as soon as it got late, he saw her off, though not without exchanging numbers with her beforehand, before heading back to the Dojima house.

It was going to be a long year again... Not that he minded.]
