[It's probably the kind of conversation they should have face to face, but, the idea's out there now. Of course it wouldn't matter to her, but--surely she understands? Or she can understand, with time. That there's a weight to carry. Maybe it's about him, yes, but it's also about her, about her image, about the fame and publicity and speculation and scandal that comes from being A Kaiba Sibling. Is that fair?]

Maybe.
But the Mage's Association doesn't mean anything in this place.
I just mean to say that businessmen are an improvement. They're almost as bad as magi, but as far as I know, they don't usually try to have you killed when you're talented enough to be a threat to them.

I know it's an exceptionally low bar to clear, but I'm still glad to be an improvement over crusty old bloodthirsty magi.

We can talk about the particulars at home.

[ Not to worry. She can imagine his voice as she reads his reply, and it brings another smile to her face. ]

Okay ☆
I'll be back in a little bit. I just wanted to take care of a little personal shopping.
