[ Well, at least it's better than her picking Sexy Santa on purpose. That would bring a whole other slew of questions with it -- and he doesn't really think she's lying either, so he's quick to shake his head at the offer. ]
No, thanks. [ He really doesn't want to see what else they have.... ] .. they got to have a better store somewhere else.
[ Because he'd feel sort of bad letting a girl walk around in that all day..?? Especially since it's sort of his fault. Technically. Look, he wants to turn off those mother hen instincts too, but he just can't, okay.. ]
[She blinks. Of all of the responses, she really wasn't expecting him to still....be willing to help.... in fact, it's safe to say that that is the opposite of the reaction she expected him to have, which would have been to fluster and leave.
[ LOOK.. DON'T CALL HIM OUT ON THIS. It's embarrassing when you make it obvious that he's mother henning, okay? Because while he can't help it, it's still.. well, not really like a tall intimidating-looking guy like him to be a mother hen, for one. And helping out weird animes is in itself embarrassing as hell alongside it.
So don't point out the elephant in the room here, Elcia. Just ignore it. Please. ]
Yah, what do I look like, some sort of gangster? I'm not going to bully some reward out of you. [ So he's just tsunning it off..
(He does look a whole lot like a thug though when he frowns like that. It's the 350 bench pressing eyebrows.) ]
[ why is everyone out for heung soo's bones stop making this a national sport
But don't worry, he won't even dare to question that with The Animes.. who knows what they can do. She could transform into a magical girl or pull a robot out of nowhere and he'd be like "ah, yes, sure" at this point. He's not going to doubt her power levels for now, okay.
Especially not when there's more important matters like her being incredibly embarrassing about it by pointing that out.. ]
[ He just said don't get weird ideas.. and here she is, getting a weird idea that's actually exactly right. How dare she. You come into his game, on this day of the intro log... ]
After this? [ NOW HE'S EVEN MORE DETERMINED TO PROVE HE'S NOT HELPFUL. So!! Determined!!
So what if she falls into the clutches of some out of control robots, not like h.. e... cares...
But...what if things get dangerous again? I'm definitely not ready to fight off those fat red men again... I think it'd be pretty scary to go alone....
[ GOD DAMMIT ELCIA. Don't just do this? This is why girls are dangerous, he'll be sticking to his bastard rather than turning into an otome love interest, thanks.... ]
You're not really scared.
[ Judging by her attitude earlier. But it still manages to play onto his mother hen side all the same, so it's not like he can give a definite no to that.. more like a begrudging "well, yeah, sure". ]
.. just follow me and don't make a big deal. [ Before anyone else sees this.. ]

Who is this guy......]
... Huh? You're still going to help me out?
[An arched eyebrow.]
You know, there's nothing in it for you.

[She says, smiling so cheerfully and innocently.
She'd.
Break your ribs, friend.
As it is, though--]
No, you just seem like the sort of person who doesn't want to be caught helping other people. But maybe you're even nicer than I took you for.

Don't get weird ideas.
[ Aka exactly the right idea.... ]

[she looks pleased, at least... look at how happy you've made her.
For now, though, she changes the subject.]
Are you going to give me a guided tour now?

Just find the apartments. It's not that hard.

"Just find the apartments".
She's pretty sure she could do that, but also--]

But she just smiles in response to that, nodding easily enough and following him contentedly.]
Sure, sounds good to me.
[victory is hers.
Sorry, Heung Soo, now you have a new duckling.]

But he realises there's no way out now, so.. yup, off they go together.
