[ ah.

now it is bishamon's turn to look mildly flustered, though unfortunately she does not have the aptitude to recover from the flush on her cheeks as quickly as he does. there is much to consider, really—

first, that he should compliment her like that, so indirectly, so clinically, as if it were a simple statement of fact and nothing more;

and secondly, that he should offer without quite offering, that thing she still struggles to digest, that mana exchange. ]


Um. [ she flounders for a moment, and even avoids his glance — but only for a second! she is quick to return her gaze soon enough, as if the nervous gesture had been an old tic she had long since worked past. she lifts that bloodied hand, the one he had gestured towards, carefully moving it a little more out of his reach.

no offense........ this is all still so new and strange to her! ]


This is my normal appearance, [ she corrects, now that she's gotten herself back on track. ] But before this, I was a God. Not necessarily infallible, but... not nearly so fragile, either. It's my intent to wear myself out. Better I know my limits here, in the safety of this courtyard, than out there during a battle.

[ and once she knows those limits, of course, she intends to push herself past them...

but that's something she keeps to herself for now. ]
