I'm sure there is no place that is free of problems.
[ That's called a utopia, and it's not something humans are meant to have due to their nature... is what she thinks, anyway. ]
So I think... it will be fine. Thank you for accepting me.

[ it's fine. ]
Lead the way, then. [ he will follow... to the gourmet dinner. ]

[ he knows The City is a hellscape. he's not gonna judge people living the way they have to. ]
I'm not sure. It was her thing, but-- when she died, it felt right to continue what she set out to do. [ ... ] Death and killing aren't regular topics back home. It's illegal and kind of a taboo topic for a lot of people.

It'd be nice if there was, in theory. But I have no clue how we'd pull it off in practice.
[ ... similar thoughts. there's always some kind of conflict or struggle.
he's not sure what to say. thanks for making a choice? no. ]
You nervous? About going somewhere totally unknown?

[ It's actually not that far in the food court—just several stores over. They seem to serve a lot of gourmet food that isn't usually gourmet. There's caviar hot dog with gold leafs, pasta with cheese melted straight from the pricy cheese block itself, a hamburger... Anyway, Yuri orders a gourmet mac and cheese for Shu. There's panko breadcrumbs, cilantro, cayenne peppers, and several different types of cheese mixed together to create a nice, deep flavor. ]
It seems to be that way for many other places...
[ Yuri is aware that the City seems to be... really bad compared to most of these. ]
Unless if there's a more special clause...?

... Yes, but like with all new things, I will do my best to adapt. I just think it will be less painful this time around, since you'll be there with me.
[ For logical reasons. Shu already knows the places. But also... for sentimental reasons. ]

[ ok that pasta with cheese directly from the block is SUCH a tourist trap but it's also so good. ]
Oh. I see what you mean by gourmet.
[ he will take the container of food from her. that's CAYENNE on his mac and cheese. ]

I guess people did it enough in the past that they had to put something in place to stop it.
[ and yet people do it anyway. ]
I think it's just the normal reasons. No one really has the right to kill someone else. Abuse of power. Life is a gift. The usual.

Like I said -- first thing's getting you all the documents you need, but... that won't take long. Scarecrow'll be weak as hell if you smile at him and say please.

I see...
[ Life is a gift. Well.
She has time to get used to that sort of ideology. ]
That's fine, since I wouldn't want to—... never mind.

You can tolerate spicy flavors, right? Since you're not that picky.

[ That tone makes her wonder if she's being teased, but... that's how she usually asks for things apart from the smile.

I would... just be polite?
[ help ]

I'm fine with spice. Is this one of those secretly-going-to-burn-my-mouth-off things?
He's pretty soft to cute girls.
[ someone is being teased, but it's not yuri. ]

Oh, no. The cheese will help with that, but a little spiciness gives a good kick in the flavor.
... I was trying to restrain myself from being violent if I couldn't have it my way, but I eventually gave in to the urge.
[ tehepero ]
[ tehepero ]
[ Well. Okay. She can handle being called cute by Shu, at least... ]
Well, yes...
Well, yes...
[ don't tehepero. ]
They have ways around anger management problems, y'know.

So if he dithers, it won't be hard to persuade him.
[ he is already getting a fork to dig in. tasty. ]
I'll take your word for it. What about you? You want some?

[ Good to know Shu isn't the jealous type. ]
... Noted.
[ They can continue looking at the shooting stars and talk longer... maybe even sleep here. Who knows. Anyway, we can finally end the thread here!! ]
