[Also lowering his voice. He knows some people are sensitive about talking about this in public, even if he's more or less used to being treated like a superstitious weirdo.]

Yes. Don't worry, it's not obvious to normal people or anything.

[mermaidcursed]

ohthankgod-

( the relief must be visible, given that her shoulders drop immediately and she can't help but rest a hand over her chest. even now though, her mind is racing. it just seems a little too coincidental to be honest!

the rain is pouring now, and while nene has no desire to go off with a strange man, she also doesn't want to take his jacket and risk never being able to return it. so quietly, she points to a bus stop down the way. )

Do you want to wait out the rain there...?

[gemuinemanagement]

[Frankly, if Nene did want to go off somewhere with him, Suga would be concerned. Please have self-preservation, child.]

That should be fine. I hope you weren't in a hurry...

[It doesn't look like it'll let up very soon.]

[mermaidcursed]

( we both know that her sense of self preservation is a swinging pendulum that easily buckles for the sake of others and/or answers. )

No, I have a pretty free schedule...

( her parents are busy- her mother and father both are doting and kind, but they love work just a bit more than they love getting to be home with their family. she's used to it. black canyon may be a little lonely, but he's got plenty of treats and a soft cozy bed that likely has lulled him to sleep already. she can wait out the rain, probably... ... probably.

the rain sounds even louder against the roof of the bus stop, but it's safe enough that she can let the hood down without fear. curiously, nene looks up at suga, sitting down and kicking her feet. )

Do you work at a shrine nearby?

[gemuinemanagement]

A jeweler, actually. I just moved here recently.

[So he didn't feel great about waltzing up to a shrine and being like 'protective charms are real and work, hire me'.]

[mermaidcursed]

Oh, that sounds nice. I bet they're really pretty- what you make, I mean.

( briefly, she thinks about how in stories jewelry and charms can go hand in hand- is it like that? ... would it be stupid to ask- )

[gemuinemanagement]

I try my best. -Where I was living before, people didn't believe in ghosts, so they'd only wear the charms if they were pretty enough.

[So he's had to learn that aspect of charm-making to be able to do anything useful.]

[mermaidcursed]

Oh-- I was gonna ask, but that answers that. ... I dunno if a lot of people believe, here? But my friend's an exorcist, and his family's really powerful.

( not that she's ever run into a supernatural outside of the school... ......... oh-- ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that makes sense now. )

Um- you said you were cursed, too?

[gemuinemanagement]

I was. It was lifted recently when the ghost who cursed me was laid to rest, but for a long time I had no voice.

[It's not as bad as hers, presumably, but it still kind of sucked.]

[mermaidcursed]

( oh, so his was gone now...

... wait, how come hanako-kun never brought up the idea of breaking her own? guess she's gotta go bully (affectionate) him for answers later. but he told her, so... quietly, kicking at the ground with one foot, nene fiddles with the edge of the jacket's sleeve. )

I'm glad that you're free of it. ... I- I was cursed by a mermaid. When I make contact with water, I grow scales. So... rain's really not the best for me anymore.

[gemuinemanagement]

I'm sorry to hear that, that sounds rough. Why did the mermaid curse you, if it's okay to ask?

[These things usually have reasons, in his experience.]

[mermaidcursed]

( HECK

nene pauses, before mumbling her answer. )

I ate her scale, kinda outta spite, because a friend told me it was part of a love charm. ... I-I know better now, though!!! And he helps me cut back the, um, extreme parts of the curse!

[gemuinemanagement]

[Oh. Suga blinks a few times, and can't help but smile. That's... it's bad that she's cursed, so he shouldn't make light of it, but... that's such an innocent reason to be cursed.]

That was mean of him to tell you that. I'm glad he's making up for it now though.

[mermaidcursed]

Mhm! He keeps me safe. But there's not much anyone can do about the weather...

( maybe she should make some teruteru bozu... with how hard this rain's coming down, it'll likely last a while. gross. )

[gemuinemanagement]

It's too bad about that. But it'd be silly to carry an umbrella all the time, too...

[Nene's life sounds rough.]
