Have you figured out the answer to that riddle yet?

[She shakes her head.] Most solutions are impractical. You can't always be with someone. If it really is only being together physically, then even I can't think of a viable solution. But there are probably angles I can't think of that you might know.

I'm clueless as far as this goes. Maybe something good might come of Mikado hanging out with those people, if he can figure out a way to make this not so weird all the time.

Baseless optimism is dangerous. The premise breaks down quickly when you realise he isn't working very hard to stay 'normal.'

[laughs and pets her head] On the bright side, we'll probably never have to worry about baseless optimism from you.

[he can't stop worrying about Mikado though] I'm definitely going to see him and talk to him.

[Pettings are nice. She relaxes a little from it, blinking slowly.]

I am only interested in the truth. ...I hope he listens to you.

Me too. If not, maybe you could use your womanly charms on him and seduce him into being smart and safe.

Seduction would have an unfortunate effect on his intelligence from my observations.

That's true, that's true. Maybe it's only initially though. Once he finally lets himself be seduced he might have a complete turn around.

That would only work if you helped me. I think you have a better shot than I do. Besides, all my womanly charm is reserved at the moment.

Oh yeah? Where are you spending all that womanly charm of yours that you can't contribute it to Mikado's development?

On a certain hopeless Chosen. You can laugh at me if you want.

[scoffs] That guy? Really?

Yes. I have a lot of fun with him. He isn't as terrible as I am but he likes me anyway. Of course, nothing will probably come of it because of his commitment issues but that is fine for now. [She waves a hand.] I doubt you're very interested in my love life or lack therefore. But he does worry about me if you ever want to use it against him.

He has enough shortcomings that I wouldn't have to use you. Thanks anyway though.

He really does, doesn't he? Try not to worry him too much.

[looking at her even more skeptically] That's not really something anyone needs to worry about, 'I promise.'

You really believe that horrible act of his? No way! I know you're more observant than that.

Hey, hey, I'm not saying the guy is completely cold. Maybe if I had boobs like yours he might worry about me.

Half a point! Not full credit. If you had a nice chest, he could openly worry about you.

Sadly not everyone can have a chest as nice as yours, Erika-chan. Have you met Mairu-chan yet? I'm sure she would gladly fondle you the second she saw you.

As nice as that sounds, there is a very limited guest list for invitations like that.

Do I get to be on that list?

Only if you can solve Furudo Erika's mystery trivia contest!
