"...As long as you can keep it short. The quicker we get home, the better it'll be," Manami replied, her tone completely lacking in the casual spirit displayed by Keita. The disciplinarian seemed incapable of dropping her no-nonsense persona, even after school hours, which made conversations very difficult with her. Not that she seemed to notice. After all, Manami was only looking out for her fellow students. She walked alongside him to the supermarket, deciding she could get a few supplies in the meantime. If nothing else, it'd be one or two less items on the list for the weekly shopping later on. Her eyes glanced towards him as he tried to advertise his father's restaurant in an awkward manner. What had gotten him so flustered, all of a sudden? Perhaps he was worried about pushing his family's products? How silly. Manami may be tough about studying, but even she could understand if familial obligations took precedent... somewhat. Either way, it was disheartening to know that the issues with Strange Gospel were even affecting their business. She held no illusion that her patronage alone would keep them afloat, but every little could help, right? Besides, it couldn't be so dire that they were about to close up shop or anything. "I don't mind visiting, I suppose," Manami replied to Keita's advertisement coolly, "if nothing else, I suppose it gives me an opportunity to discuss your slacking with your family..." Manami was more likely serious with that statement. She wasn't known for her wit, after all.
