That sounds perverted. Do I need to get a teacher, or should I just kick your ass?

[impersonal_space]

How you interpret that is up to you. [ She shifts the umbrella from one shoulder to the other. ] What if you had just threatened a teacher with that kind of talk? I wonder just what they allow students here to get away with. [ Kids these days... ]

[musou_tensei]

If you're asking me to believe you're a teacher, you've got another thing coming.

[impersonal_space]

What other possibility would there be?

[musou_tensei]

You'd be surprised the sorts we get.

[impersonal_space]

Hmm, perhaps I would be.

[ A smile. ] None of that changes the truth that I am now employed here as a teacher. It's as obvious as your continuing to just sit there while I remain a fish out of water.

[musou_tensei]

Isn't that unfortunate.

Of course, if you'd be so kind as to make a donation to this lowly priest, maybe I'd reconsider.

[impersonal_space]

It is dreadful.

[ She tapped a finger to her lip. ] I will need to know what cause I am donating to, as I am not in the business of giving hand-outs.

[musou_tensei]

The Hakurei Shrine. I happen to be the kannushi, estranged from my shrine in the name of doing what is expected of me. You interrupted that with your meddling, so it's only fair you give a donation.

[impersonal_space]

[ A faint smirk. ] You are so humble in your role, as well. As if my meddling had any effect on your presence here. [ She doesn't just mean her immediate interference, either. The words had, as they often do, several meanings ... and the edge of one such meaning was quite sharp. ]

As I am without a stipend as of yet, perhaps you can be a dear and put it on my tab?

[musou_tensei]

-... This woman was a strange one. And he couldn't help the oddly... nostalgic feeling coming over him when she said that. Did he know this woman?-

Alright, fine. Just try not to get lost.

[impersonal_space]

Of course not. [ She gives her umbrella a twirl. ] I have got my eye on you, after all~.
