romance and murder go so well together

[capyper]

[ If the colorful posters from Tuesday weren't enough, Yato has redoubled his efforts for today and slapped these up all over the place:



We are admittedly not entirely sure what the heck the catgirl is there for, but she's there. Anyway, in the dining hall this evening, Aqua and Yato have set things up for a group dinner!! All the food is being put on one table; the rest of the room is for mingling and is colorfully decorated in a way that suggests that Yato went wild in the art room at some point and decided what we all really need in our lives is more color and more glitter!!

There's also this piece of paper with everybody's names on it in pairs, and sets of questions (red tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet). That's right, your mystery game is speed-dating and Yato is here to be your cupid for the evening!! ]

[...point.]

Probably better to think of it as getting to know each other, considering that I'm married.

[ignorantly]

[ He looks at the piece of paper again. ]

"Don't get weird with married people"...

[cherryblooded]

I know you really wanted to flirt with me [he doesn't think anything like it] but sorry, you can't.

[ignorantly]

You're too old for me. And also not a cute girl.

[cherryblooded]

Oh, is that so? I feel much better now.

[Chuckling.]

Do you want to go first?

[ignorantly]

At least I got Sonozaki-san as my other speed date...

[ He looks over the questions Yato wrote down. ]

How do you feel about your relationship with your mother?

[cherryblooded]

Hm... I wasn't particularly close to my parents while they were alive, actually. I'm grateful to them for raising me as best they could, but I'm afraid I ended up being the kind of son who forgets to call.

Regret that a little, now.

[ignorantly]

I see... I guess that's one of those things ya only realize when it's too late.

[cherryblooded]

Too late to do anything about it now. Just have to try and have a better relationship with my own daughter.

Let's see... 'For what in your life are you most grateful?'

[ignorantly]

Hm. My little sister, probably?

[cherryblooded]

[What an adorable answer.]

Glad to hear that. What kind of person is she?

[ignorantly]

Shy and quiet. But she's a sweetheart. There's not a single mean bone in her body. [ Said in the tone of a very proud big bro. ]

[cherryblooded]

She sounds like my daughter. I'd love to meet her someday.
