Story transcript

Kanna Nekozawa: There! The bat girl!

Yoru Shirogane: Don't call her that.

Chikage Kōmori: You both have three seconds to explain why you're following me.

Yoru Shirogane: Yoru Shirogane. Frostveil Release.

Kanna Nekozawa: Kanna Nekozawa. Threadfire Seals.

Kanna Nekozawa: Different tricks. Same bad habit. We collect dangerous girls.

Chikage Kōmori: I am not collected.

Kanna Nekozawa: Good. Then you won't mind a hug.

Chikage Kōmori: Get off. My wings are not handles!

Yoru Shirogane: She's definitely struggling.

Chikage Kōmori: My pulse is wrong. Something is waking up.

Yoru Shirogane: Then match it to mine. Slow in. Slow out.

Kanna Nekozawa: And if your teeth grow, bite the scary tree. Not us.

Chikage Kōmori: That is terrible advice.

Chikage Kōmori: He thinks I'm alone.

Kanna Nekozawa: Let him keep thinking it.

Yoru Shirogane: On three.

Kanna Nekozawa: We always say three before doing something stupid.

Retsu Kiba: Well, look at that. The lonely bat found a pack.

Chikage Kōmori: Don't call us a pack.

Kanna Nekozawa: Call us the thing hitting you.

Yoru Shirogane: Now.

Kanna Nekozawa: Threads left!

Yoru Shirogane: Mirrors right!

Chikage Kōmori: I don't need directions!

Retsu Kiba: You three rehearse this?

Retsu Kiba: Got you.

Chikage Kōmori: What? My wings!

Kanna Nekozawa: He caught all three!

Yoru Shirogane: Don't pull. The chakra feeds on resistance.

Retsu Kiba: Three fighters. One trap. You made my night.

Chikage Kōmori: Put us down.

Retsu Kiba: No. I want to see which one of you breaks first.

Kanna Nekozawa: That is a very rude way to make friends.

Yoru Shirogane: He stores impact. Stop giving him impact.

Kanna Nekozawa: So we use his grip.

Chikage Kōmori: You want me to bite the chain.

Kanna Nekozawa: I want you to drink the trick out of him.

Retsu Kiba: Oh. That's what you figured out?

Yoru Shirogane: Mirror the pulse.

Kanna Nekozawa: Turn it inward.

Chikage Kōmori: Then hold still, Retsu.

Retsu Kiba: Tch. That actually worked.

Retsu Kiba: That was the lock, girls. Not the cage.

Chikage Kōmori: I hate him.

Kanna Nekozawa: I hate that I like the drama.

Yoru Shirogane: Save the arguing. Pull together.
