We only have so many plates, Mari-san. And I daren't think too hard about what would happen if someone were to get sick eating from a dirty plate. I'm just being thorough.
[ It sounds like a laughably weak excuse even to Dia's ears but she doesn't look up until Mari all but elbows her away from the sink. Though she doesn't want to, she can't help but letting her gaze drift up to Mari's face where she knows there's going to be one of those smirks, like Mari's the cat who got the cream at Dia's expense. For a moment -- just a moment -- she hates it a little but just as quick it's washed away. She's too tired to be at all as hot blooded and fired up as she might have been able to get not a few hours ago.
With Mari taking one of the plates, Dia takes that as her cue to start drying. There's only one plate that she's actually cleaned so that's the only one she can make a show of toweling off before setting it to one side. ]
I don't want to eat just before going to bed, though. I don't have much of an appetite this late.
[ Not that it's ever really stopped her before.
She hates herself for being so short with Mari but she knows if the other girl manages to coax any more words out of her then everything else is going to come spilling out as well. And though she's loathe to admit it... Dia's scared. She doesn't really want to know what else is locked up in there, waiting to come tumbling out. ]
