[Shiki looks kind of exasperated, but she's still smiling.]

< I was wondering if anyone would be willing to let me borrow their partner for tomorrow. I wouldn't ask, but Lalamon seems to think me being unable to communicate with customers that aren't digimon is funny and is refusing to help me. >

[It's all said in bright and sunny Japanese. She's not that great at English,, and her partner is nowhere to be found. From somewhere off-camera, Lalamon can be heard.]

I told you: if you're that worried about it, then just don't go into work until this gets fixed. It'll be over in a couple of days.

[Shiki's looking away from the camera at Lalamon. She seems angry.] < No! I'm not taking off again just because you're a digijerk. >

Digidumbass.

[Shiki makes a frustrated noise, and the feed cuts.]

< Headphones, headphones, headphones . . . Where did I put them? > [It's said kind of to herself, and there's the sound of stuff being shifted around.] < Aha! There they are. >

[Shiki's got a pair of vaguely atrocious headphones in her hand. It's probably not the best idea to encourage his behavior, but maybe music will calm him down? Maybe?] < Neku. Do you want to borrow them? I don't know what happened to yours, but you obviously don't have them right now and you want them. >

[Neku looks surprised by the offer, and for a moment his expression softens. He's... touched, but her attempt. by her knowing what's wrong. Once again he feels bad for assuming things back when she first arrived. About her not being the Shiki he knows.

But this nasty THING inside him twists the intent, and his expression sours quickly]

< Don't patronize me. >

[headseraph]

< I'm not patronizing you. I'm trying to help, but if you don't want them then you don't have to take them. > [Shiki sighs.] < It's not like I'm going to force you to wear them or anything, they're kind of girly. >

< ... sorry. >
