[ No preamble, no explanation. Subaru appears on the Vine and immediately bows to the mirror. ] I am extremely sorry! I want to apologize for my behavior this past week. I... can't really excuse any of it, even though I know the cause. I should have taken better care to not hurt anyone's feelings during that time.

[ Just as she has straightened up, she feels another wave of guilt and lowers her face. ] So, please, anyone who I spoke to or... had a fight with. Please, forgive me!

[ And with that, she's gone. People can call her back, or come find her at the inn, making repairs on the roof from when she and Reimu fought. This time it's without the aid of sand, and her fairy is nowhere to be found for the time being. ]

I'm not quite sure I understand why you're apologizing, but I accept it regardless.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

I'm glad that I didn't talk to a lot of people during that time. It was really embarrassing, looking back on it, aheh.

[reallyerotic]

If I may ask, Subaru... What exactly happened?

[of_the_highest_caliber]

...fairies happened. [ That's enough, right? She doesn't want to lie about it, but... ]

[reallyerotic]

Mmm, fairies.

In that case, it'll be even easier to accept your apology.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

I'm glad that no one seems to be holding a grudge. [ So far. ] It seems like I'm not the only person who had difficulties, either.

[reallyerotic]

I'm a little jealous, to be honest. I wouldn't have minded for something to have happened to me.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

Ehehe, I'm not so sure that's something to be wishing for.

[reallyerotic]

Maybe you're right. But I can't help but wonder about why nothing happened to me when I arrived right in the middle of it.

If anything, that would've made me exceptionally vulnerable!

[of_the_highest_caliber]

I... don't know. [ What an odd thing to say. ] Were you taking care of an egg with anyone, a few weeks back?

[reallyerotic]

I wasn't, and I'm a little disappointed at that. I would've taught it so much!

[now that's a scary thought]

[of_the_highest_caliber]

Maybe that's why they haven't been hovering around you as much.

Oh! Did you ever protect the items you were worried about the other day?

[reallyerotic]

I did, actually. I really need to thank you, Subaru. If I had arrived even moments later...

I don't know what I would've done.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

It was luck, then. [ Or fate. ] I'm glad you made it in time!

[reallyerotic]

I truly am in your debt, Subaru. If you ever need a favor in return, all you need to ask and I'll do it. I won't even ask questions.

That's how grateful I am.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

[ She knows a few people who always settle their "debts", so there's no sense in turning that way. It must have been something very important to her. ] Thanks, Suruga. I don't think you owe me anything, but... I promise I'll keep it in mind.

[reallyerotic]

Please do, and don't hesitate to call on me should you ever need to.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

Mm, count on it!
