"Nice speech, yokai." Sorae Tokinomiya remarked at Yuki, approaching her and Lunatea. "But after not choosing an entrance to guard, it's rich hearing about 'sticking together' from you." She snarked at the two yokai.

"You could've joined us, yokai." Takamori came up from behind Sorae. "Had you did, the Wardogs probably would've never gotten past the defensive line and attacked the refugees." He joined Sorae in reprimanding Lunatea and Yuki. "Your human lackey showed more courage than you two did."[/quote]

“Maybe if you did a better job defending the line, then the enemy would have never been able to infiltrate it in the first place, you are lucky Lunatea was back here as well,  it cuts two ways you know…” Having venom in her voice. Having already been put in a foul mood from her battle with the war dogs and their handler. She didn’t feel the need to be lectured, especially not after both her and Lunatea had ensured the safety of the refugees. Having put their own lives on the line and done everything they could have to ensure the war-dogs did not rip apart the helpless refugees. [/Quote] 

“She’s right,” Lunatea chimed in, an annoyed look clearly drawn on her face. “Someone had to stay here to guard these people from any stray enemies that you failed to exterminate. And it wasn’t easy. I had to exert myself quite gravely in order to handle all those dogs. I'll be stuck with terrible cramps for the next few days.

She had overcharged her body's muscles with magic. Naturally, such an act would have unpleasant consequences.

[quote] "Lord Takamori, Lady Sorae, please. We don't know that for sure so it was good that Miss Lunatea and Miss Yuki were here to protect the refugees." She defended the two taskforce yokai.

“Thank you Ayu…. That is appreciated, it wasn’t easy having to protect the refugees from so many of them at the same time, I feel pretty lucky that Lunatea and the sorcerer had been here as well, I don’t know if I would have been able to protect all the refugees without any of them being killed or otherwise injured” Glancing towards the wererabbit and giving her a nod of appreciation. Feeling quite thankful for her very useful help, having not met or done anything alongside Lunatea until now. It was starting to feel like she was slowly but surely meeting all the members of the taskforce bit by bit and coming to understand them with each passing day.[/quote]

Lunatea returned her nod with her own, subtly thanking her for her defense.
