Hey, it's Minako! Got a message for me? Drop a line and I'll be right with you!

[Minako swallows and nods.]

Of course we can. Take care of yourself, okay?

[faithfulflame]

[Rei stops in her tracks and smiles impishly.]

I'll do just that. I'll be with friends. And I'm going to get paid for it. It'll be good, and it's something I want to explore about myself. There's so many opportunities, and I can't ignore them.

[And then just as quickly, she shifts forward and grabs Minako into a hug. She's not sure what exactly's come over her, but she can't help but feel this is what Minako wants, maybe what she needs.]

When I get back, I'll treat you both to a big dinner. It'll be just like with the chimera, where I came back with all that money.

[She'd definitely gone out with a couple of adventurers and killed a monster for a lotta money.]

I have faith in you, dear. [She smiles teasingly, pulling away very slowly.]

Just please don't burn my room down, alright?

[hearted]

[Minako hides her surprise with a laugh, clinging tight for a minute.]

You got it. But wait, why would I do that? I'm not the one with fire powers...

[faithfulflame]

Frustration. Don't forget, your emotions can get you into trouble...

[Rei laughs back, tapping Minako on the shoulder and letting go.]

Now, I think I should go pack, alright.

[hearted]

OH! Yeah. I'll...keep a lid on it.

[She giggles and steps back.]

I'd better see you back here in one piece, got it?

[faithfulflame]

Always, dear. I'll see you soon.

[And off she goes. Very, very puzzled about what just happened.]
