[Oh Bruno... You're so lucky Akira is in no condition to relentlessly tease. He smiles, more and more appreciative of Bruno's compassion. He's a surprisingly good guy, isn't he?]

[Akira totters along beside Bruno as they make their way into the kitchen. The fact that Bruno remains close by his side isn't lost on Akira... but what are the chances he'll deflect if he pays him a compliment? Eh, he'll build up to that.

Akira slides onto an unoccupied chair.]

So. Enchanted tea, eh? Is that something you learned to make here?
