[from here!]
[IMMEDIATELY AND SHARPLY:
No. Don't even joke about something so disgusting.
[Hak is easily her least favorite person in Cerealia right now -- and she's annoyed at a lot of people so that says a lot. Sue her if she hates presumptuous, pompous, self-centered, useless men who have no sense of propriety or duty.]

[ . . . oh. Lili frowns at that then and looks around a bit more seriously, looking for a way to free them from this disgusting blob.]
This is unacceptable then. You shouldn't be treated this way during your first festival... Come, we must fix it.

[ . . . what.
She shakes her head then, firmly and even takes a step back. She's seen what this food can do to people. If she doesn't know where it's from, she won't eat it. Not when people have turned to stone right in front of her eyes.]
Are you even listening to me?

Careless?
[ He blinks. ]
Not really. I put a lot of thought into it.
[ He's saying all of this pretty deliberately, he thinks. ]

[from here!
why doesn't she know Souji's name]
[ . . . well.
The sharp smile tells a little bit more than what comes out of Souji's mouth but... she shakes her head then, still a little bit fussed. Okay, it's during times of turmoil so yes it's going to be a little hard to handle your reputation but the fact remains that they don't kill civilians.
Even just because it looks bad.
.... dammit, Souji.]
-- My point being that as long as you don't kill civilians, what fault could they find? Enforcement is difficult on all ends but your goal is to make sure that innocent don't get hurt, yes? Therefore it's unacceptable that they would still go out of their way to slander you...!
[a dainty huff.
tsuns forever.]

[Because she's a dangerous girl, etc etc.]
Who said we weren't? [Think about that, Lili. You've spoken to her twice now, that counts for something in Rise's book. But she knows how to handle tsun-types easily enough...as long as nobody's really yelling. Then all bets are off.] We don't have to be if you don't want to be, but...why not?

Should I tone it back...?
[ Getting a little lost over here. ]
[ Getting a little lost over here. ]
Ack... Lili-san, wait for me! [He scampers over towards her.
Of course, it's also very possible that one of the giant beasts might be charging in their general direction...]

Wh-what? That's not the answer I expected to hear... M, maybe he or she looks like this doll, then...?
[ Like a misshapen blob that's seen better times?? Atsushi, please think about what you're saying. ]
That reminds me, though— did anyone you know from your world end up here, Lili-san?

[ Cool your jets, lady, just accept humans are shit-tier and the only good in the world ever came from monsterkind. ]
I don't have to meet them to know that they're just like every other human, because that's just how humans are and how they'll always be!

He does.
[ . . . . ah.
But the next question is a good one with a bad answer. Lili visibly flinches a little bit since she wasn't expecting that, frowning as her shoulders hunch a fraction. Yona and Hak are here.... but they don't know her, so it doesn't really count, does it? Only one person has really asked her this before but she trusts Atsushi more than Mutsu...
Yet even then she can't really bring herself to admit it immediately so she'll just let her gaze fall to the ground as her answer comes quietly.]
I.... Not exactly.

[Speaking to someone twice means nothing?! Rise's definition of friendship is too fluid.... Lili's just going to huff a little bit at that, shaking her head.]
It's not about "why not" -- you can't just immediately befriend anyone you meet like that. You don't even know me...!
[casually makes up rules about friendship to mask her own happy feeling, this is fine]

And whose fault is that? [Lightly. She's making a point, Lili, take it or leave it. Maybe Rise comes on too strong and maybe she should be apologizing but...well, Lili's still rolling with it.] Okay, okay. Maybe "friend" is a strong word. Acquaintance, maybe?
