It's alright, people have different fears. Yours just struck me as cute, by the way.

There's that... and I've been searching for my head for a long time.
[ her smile turns a little rueful. ]
But I guess this is what I wanted. My time in Ikebukuro made me more human -- I felt closer to them the longer I stayed. Perhaps, a part of me wanted to be like them.

I've already stared death in the face. I think I'm allowed this.
[ a few minutes later ]
Do you like haggis?

Do you like haggis?
And now you are... of sorts.
[ It's like getting her wish, he thinks. But at the same time, they're both trapped in suburban hell. ]

Wanna try it?
[ 'Cause he can make it? ]
Of course. It's even better because death's a charming woman.

I was referring to you, if it slipped your mind.
And of course, it's not too much for me.
I may be a bartender, but cooking's just as fun and engaging.

[ something tugs a little at her chest, a sort of bittersweet feeling. she had wanted to be human to be closer to them, closer to shinra. but once she's back in ikebukuro, she'll be a dullahan again. headless; no mouth to speak, no eyes to see.
becoming human amplified her emotions. it's exhausting. ]
Yes, at least until I'm sent back.

][ Are you tsunning at him..... gosh, Celty... who else was he talking about ]
Don't tell me you're embarrassed I complimented you.
Is that a good thing?

[ Of course. Until she's sent back. But one can never tell; people come and go from this place per the landlord's whims. They can rally themselves and complain, but either way, it's something out of their hands: leaving and arriving. ]
... Would you like to? Sent back, I mean.

[ it's a lengthy moment before she speaks, taking her time to think of her answer. eventually, she tilts her head a little, a brief flicker of uncertainty on her face before it smooths out. ]
Yes. [ she says it slowly. and then, nodding: ] I would. This isn't my home.

[Thinking about it, there's about ten or so days until a certain man's birthday. Not to mention, there's a few other birthdays within the month she might have to get some gifts for too. Thinking that they can work together to figure this out, she decides to call up Celty.
Ring ring!]
Ring ring!]
[Doo doo doo ah, she picks up! Vietnam brightens up when she hears Celty's voice!]
Hello, Celty. I hope I am not interrupting anything? I wanted to ask you if you had anything planned for the coming birthdays this month? I know Kusanagi's birthday is soon.

[ She's embarrassed.... Cue him recording himself laughing softly and sending it to her. Also switching to voice for just a little while. ]
You're adorable.
You're adorable.
[ Nor his. The only good thing that came from being dragged into this place is seeing Totsuka and Mikoto again... Meeting Celty. He knows the feeling all too well, but at the same time...
...No, he can't stay here either. No matter how it's a relief to see his best friends again... It's not natural—they're dead, he buried them himself... ]
Nor mine.
