[The reminder of that horrid Leech Devil causes Himeno to shudder visibly. It took a week to scrub the smell of blood off of her! The wreckage and casualties-- well, they don't need to talk about it. Around the corner is always another Devil that will give them all headaches.
For a moment after Makima speaks, the only sound is the occasional tapping of her spoon against the teacup. Himeno can't help but raise her eyebrows as she licks a bit of custard from her lips.
Enjoying her coworkers, huh? They both know what that's supposed to mean. But Himeno isn't in the business of getting jealous and petty. Not outwardly, anyway, and certainly not now.]
You've given me a pretty solid team, Miss Makima, so I've got no complaints.
Besides, if I really wanted the glamour, I'd have kept the eye-- [ she points playfully at her eyepatch ] --and joined a hostess club, or something! Either way, I don't think I'd ever be working a job that wouldn't worry my dad, you know?
[Without adding but the tiniest dash of cream, Himeno brings her cup to her lips.]
...Anyway. I'm no different than everyone else hunting down that Gun. I wanna see it through to the end.
[A futile mission. But as long as Aki refuses to abandon it, she'll stay and march on towards certain death.]
