[She's grinning. Sorry Hiruko she's on one.]

that just a cringe stereotypical movie and other fiction trope." Her response is autopilot, default, defensive, but she frowns and pauses after it.

"Um.. I mean, I dunno? Darumi never had friends until now. Not.. proper ones or good ones.. like you and maybe the others.."

But what..? She's curious, but won't press him. Instead she plays with her fingers and looks down at the book on her lap.

Can they get back to the manga yet? Maybe she should pick it up and continue reading like nothing happened.

Yeah, that's wh-.. Oh. She blinks a few times, dumbfounded. "Isn't +

"Rats? Me? Nah.. Darumi doesn't like them they're.. they don't appreciate gore!!"

Finger gun shuffles away to go feed the rats she's absolutely not keeping.

rushes to make sure she doesn't misunderstand, she laughs and a smile replaces her frown. Along with an eye roll.

"Hey, no sweat. I didn't think you were and even if so, I wouldn't mind. I'm used to that. ... More than the kindness. You're too good, for real. Thanks.. but I couldn't."

everyone. And that's not fair. If she could trade with him? She probably would. Minus all her.. shitty past and abuse of course. He deserves to live more than she, she's certain. But she can't. So the least she can do is.. not add to that.

Maybe she should have never said anything.

When he +

Whereas he panics about it coming across as making her useless, Darumi is just quietly shaking her head and staring almost sadly. She appreciates it. It's not words she hears ofen. Words she's not gotten used to yet.

But.. he has enough to deal with, doesn't he? He's already doing so much for +

Did you know.

I was being serious!! I swear, it was there! It killed an invader though so guesses it was okay~ 🤷‍♀️

that person. That role. The weirdo. The clown. The emo. Someone that can be hated or won't be missed when they die. If it helps everyone, it's alright. I'm used to it. It's like, my purpose~ I'm useless otherwise."

Does she tell him..? Or make something up? Or change topic? She's not sure. It's strange enough to her that she's considering it.

But he's patient with her. She isn't being rushed or forced. So maybe it's okay..

"..Every group needs someone they can call the crazy one. I don't mind being +

she has anything to do. And getting help wouldn't be so bad.

Yawning and vacantly nodding, she tries to snap out of her daze. "Mham. Darumi can walk. Head not leg."

Darumi can't handle. Pretty good with coping with pain~" ..That's not exactly something she should be proud of. And yet.

But it does hurt really bad and she feels a little drowsy.

Eh? He wants to take her somewhere? She's still not used to being looked after, but she can't refuse. Not like +

"A headache and animals totes work in the same way. A headache is just a bunch of little miniature brain animals stampeding." She doesn't actually think that of course and knows they aren't the same. Even with a headache she'll joke and annoy.

"...I mean, 'cos I've had worse, this is nothing +

metal shop without resisting.

When they get there, her not cuffed hand reaches inside of her clothing and pulls out a key that she hid in her bra.

"Kyohoho! You've been Darumi'd~!" Surprise! She was pranking him. Pulling her hand over to the one with the key, she releases them from the cuffs.

"'Cos it's fun? Livens things up! ... You really hate me that much you can't bear to be cuffed to me huh." She's joking. Mostly. Although her tone wouldn't suggest it.

"Aww! But chopping off your hand would be so much better!" Pouting a little, she shuffles her feet along and follows him to the +

Darumi looks so proud of herself afterwards, especially thanks to Hiruko's reaction. It's like positive reinforcement for her.

"Hehehe I did it I kissed mistress~! And Hiruko-sama looks so cute flustered!" She probably shouldn't have said that last thing, but oh well.

"Yeeep~ Darumi will earn it!"

book. Her turn to pause and think.

Lifting her head to return to looking at him, her voice is a bit softer than usual. "..Those things can co-exist though, yeah? But. ..... Darumi cares a lot about everyone, so that's why..." Picking at a loose thread on her jumper, she trails off.
