Sanada & Kawamura house on New Tokyo

[Yaoquizque]

She opened a chest of drawers and took some papers along with a bunch of keys and sat on the bed.
"Here." she said, to draw his attention from the window and the city beyond it.

As he was sitting near her, he picked the bunch of keys and observed the ornament that was part of the bunch.
"You will need this derogation to access and use the vessel, along with those copy of its ID..." was saying Junko while skimming through the documents.
"hm..."

She finally raised her head and, noticing the object of his attention, pondered.
"Anybody home?"
"Yes. Go on." replied the man, dropping the bunch of keys on the bed.
"Alright, what is it?"
"Nothing. So many documents. Was it really necessary?"
"What's wrong?" she asked peremptorily.
"Nevermind."

She knocked his shoulder.
"I'm serious, Hideaki. You always do that. It pisses me off."
"Do what?"
"Oh i don't know? Going all 'Oh, i'm so amused to not answer and to just give you a nevermind', perhaps. So hilarious."

He remained silent for a short while, massaging slowly his shoulder as if she hurt him.

Finally, he smiled slightly.
"You use my first-name to address me now?"

"What would be the fun in telling you now. You will see, hm? Or are you afraid to lose?"
"Afraid to lose? Pfft" replied the girl haughtily.
"Alright, beautiful hug-able creatures. No need to fight now." said the male in a half-bored half-insolent way.
"Oh... Looks like you will in the end."

A projection indeed appeared while he was talking, and Kyoko was already choosing a character.
"I'm going to clean the ground with your two corpses. Hope you will enjoy~"
