“It’s no problem!” And she meant it, too. Anything she could do, really. Seeing Honey brighten up like that, with that sweet smile of his and little stuffed animal was like the embodiment of what Tsubaki wanted to protect. He really had fortitude, to be looking ahead, and not dwelling on recent horrors. “If you see Takashi-san, then send him my best. Oh, and Hikaru-san and Kaoru-san, too, and that I’d like to talk to them again soon! It’s been hard to keep in touch.”
It was hard to do a lot of the things she wanted to do with the time restraints, but talking to Honey wasn’t a waste of that time at all.
Their respective families undoubtedly had their differences, but she wondered what it was like for them, Honey‘s family. She wondered about her friends and comrades at Shibusen, too, but there had always been a tangible lack of pressure when it came to divulging personal information. The things they talked about while they hung out, or talked in class, or went on extracurricular assignments were more often than not about everything but family life or past circumstances. Of course the teachers did their background checks, but otherwise… there was no need to know. What mattered came from actions, from the present. Being at Landel‘s was… different. A loss of freedom seemed to bring personal details into conversations, not that Tsubaki felt she needed to outright dodge or lie in what she said, even if others did.
Still, Tsubaki wasn’t sure if she should ask if that meant Chika was set to eventually become the heir to the family, and not Honey. Part of her uncertainty came from her own past, she knew that.
When it came to Honey’s questions, however, she had no qualms about answering. After all, he seemed more open-minded than most, considering everything she’d already mentioned. Their individual interests in Japanese fighting techniques gave them some common ground on top of that. “Sort of,” Tsubaki began to answer, deciding to leave her own questions alone. “Do you know about demon weapons?”
