Audio: Someone's Home!.. and pissed

[deductionrival]

Whoever keeps kidnapping us and stuffing us in a shimatta suitcase needs to go to Hell! Kuso!

[A very angry huff is heard, followed by a much softer 'ow'. Someone wasn't watching where he was going as he stumbled around getting his bearings in the baggage car.]

If you've done anything to my friends while I was gone you're going to regret it! Shimatta!

[ Don't look at Madoka here, she is completely oblivious as to the impact of what she just said. She thought she was just saying something that was obviously true! But if he said it was kind of her, then he must see it as a compliment, right?

Well, as long as he's happy with it, she is too. Madoka manages to get over her own awkwardness enough at that thought to smile a little as she brings the pieces of cake over to him. ]

Yes, please. Here you go!

[She was right! He certainly saw it as a compliment. How couldn't he when she was smiling like that?

He warms up both pieces of cake and gets forks for them. Setting out tea cups, saucers and all, he added a spoonful of sugar to his. Taking a bite, he hummed with approval.]

It looks kind of plain, but it has a really nice flavor. How's your tea?

[happyends]

It's good!

[ She seems to be enjoying it, anyway. Although the presence of a cake sure helps with that.. But Madoka means it.

After eating another bite of cake and swallowing it, she looks like she's thinking for a moment, and then speaks up again. ]

.. thank you for doing this with me. It's fun. [ Sure, some people might find something like this a little too simple to call it "fun".. but Madoka is easily pleased. ] Maybe.. if you don't mind, we could do it again sometime..? Even if there wouldn't be cake, I still like your tea.

Well, and your company, of course..!

[He bowed his head with a modest smile.]

I'd like that. I'll see if I can't figure out how to get strawberry tea for you next time too.

[happyends]

[ That does make her smile happily! Like she really is looking forward to it. ]

Thank you. [ Madoka can't help but think it's really sweet of him to want to help her by doing that. ] Don't worry if you can't, though. Some things are just harder to get than usually since we're all stuck here..

[deductionrival]

I look forward to it.

[He gave her a polite bow of his head.]
