[ well, at least she doesn't have to find him considering she dragged him away with her. she's not entirely sure where she's going here since she mostly just wanted to get out of there as fast as she can. ]

Sorry. There were probably people there you wanted to talk to.

[ it's said after several minutes of silence. ]

[...]

Careful, Steph. You'll end up kissing everyone here at this rate.

[vigilantics]

The count's only at three. I've been very good since then.

[axilium]

That's three whole more than most people are getting here, I think.

[vigilantics]

[ she looks back at him. ]

I'm a greedy woman, remember?

[axilium]

Hey, don't blame me for what Hikage said.

[vigilantics]

[ it's a little true. ]

He's not around right now to blame though.

[axilium]

I guess.

... Well, there are worse things to be greedy about.

[vigilantics]

[ at that, she looks away again. ]

I guess so.

[axilium]

... All right, Steph, what's up?

[vigilantics]

Hm? Nothing.

[ that is probably the biggest lie to say on today of all days honestly ]

[axilium]

[he just gives her a disbelieving look.]

[vigilantics]

... I'm just glad that we lasted this long together.

[ that's probably not actually what it is. ]

[axilium]

[yeah, he doubts it.]

We made for pretty good partners.

[vigilantics]

Hey. No past tense.

We're still good partners.

[axilium]

Well, our job's pretty much over, isn't it?

[vigilantics]

[ she makes a face. ]

That doesn't matter. We're still a team until the end, Belph.
