Are you really shameless enough to call that work. [Matoba scoffs, gulping water to stave off the heat, and happily makes room on the counter when the first set of skewers is pushed towards them.] ...And yet you put the least effort into it. Even foxes are fooled by your cheap smile, I suppose that is worth being impressed by.

[Matoba picks up one of the asparagus skewers and blows on it gently, taking a bite.]

Mm? ...Yes, when they can. Haha, well, they have been "dead" or ...incapacitated for a few of them, though, so I have had some unorthodox meetings.

[Actually, the most unorthodox of them all have been the ones the Daitengu was present for. The tennis up on the roof was quite fun, though.]
