Gale smiled gently when he saw the two kids. He never had young siblings, though he occasionally wondered what having one was like. Sayuri's little moment of interaction with them showed the positive sides of it.

The idea of a pillow fortress weirded Gale out, though he said nothing. Did Seiichi even have something like that, he wondered. Gale sat down, crosslegged, just beside Sayuri's bed, watching her do whatever she did in her room. To Gale, Sayuri was a tomboy, but definitely a girl.

Wait, was he supposed to visit a girl's house, just like that? It was Seiichi, or Sayuri's, but she was still a girl nonetheless.

"A guy visiting a girl's house..." Gale muttered under his breath.
