[say_thee_nay]

... I see.

Magic of what sort, pray tell?

[hasaringonit]

[ raising her hand to give you a better look at the ring on her finger ]

Haruto's.

[say_thee_nay]

[Inspects it, nodding slowly.]

And this is sufficient to thy needs?

[hasaringonit]

I wouldn't be able to continue as I am without it.

[say_thee_nay]

[Nods again, more decisively and sharply.]

Then of course it must be safeguarded. But I meant rather if thou wert in need of any additional power...?

[hasaringonit]

There is no other way, that we know of. Haruto is able to sustain me without trouble if he's not using it unnecessarily.

[say_thee_nay]

And if he is less frugal?

[hasaringonit]

I am able to last for some time, so long as he rests and recovers.

[say_thee_nay]

... I confess that I mislike this arrangement for the risks it poses thee, but there seems little enough that might be done about it at present.

Is there aught I might do for thee? Certainly I shall keep silent on the matter if such is thy wish, but beyond that...?

[hasaringonit]

[ shaking her head ]

So long as Haruto takes care of himself, I won't be in any danger from that. But I would prefer none of this was mentioned.

[say_thee_nay]

As the lady requests, then, so shall it be.

[hasaringonit]

I thank you. But for now, I feel there is little that can be done that isn't already happening.

[say_thee_nay]

Very well. But if circumstances should change, I am at thy disposal.

[hasaringonit]

[ bowing her head ]

I thank you again. You have been most kind.

[say_thee_nay]

Well, 'tis said I am much too tall, so I have ample room for extra kindness.

[hasaringonit]

[ laughing softly ]

So that's what you keep in there.

[say_thee_nay]

Amongst other things.

[hasaringonit]

A smooth tongue, as well.

[say_thee_nay]

To ascertain the truth of that, milady, I fear thou must wait for another mistletoe encounter.

[hasaringonit]

Merely a figure of speech, dear sir.

[say_thee_nay]

As thou sayest, milady.

[hasaringonit]

[ for a giant man, you are cute ]

One should be careful of how they speak.

[say_thee_nay]

Aye? Then henceforth I shall guard my tongue.

[hasaringonit]

Some may consider it improper.

[say_thee_nay]

And surely we must have the utmost respect for propriety...
