I want to meet him too. If he's your friend, he must be nice.

[She trusts Hiiro's judgement.]

Is he friends with Rinne too?

[umurice]

[............................. Uh.]

... I think Nii-san likes him too.

[her_rose_is_red]

Then I'm sure he's great.

[You can't go wrong with the Rinne seal of approval.]

[umurice]

Umu.

... You really like Nii-san. I am glad. We can get along very well as siblings.

[Guess she is officially adopted.]

[her_rose_is_red]

I sure do.

[The pause makes her think maybe she's praising Rinne too much and Hiiro feels left out.]

And I like you too, Hiiro. You're really smart and brave.

[And he knows how to do so much cool stuff. Maybe he'll teach her to fight bears someday!]

[umurice]

Aha, thank you, Ib-kun, though I am actually an idiot. I hear it often back home. That is why I will always listen if you have something you want to teach me too.

[He isn't quite sure brave fits either, but he is definitely more daring than most people are comfortable with, so he accepts it.]

Umu. I like you too, Ib-kun. Let us continue to get along even in the future.

[her_rose_is_red]

People who call you an idiot are just being mean. You shouldn't listen to them.

[Hiiro is plenty smart and brave. Ib will tell him that as many times as needs to hear it. She's also pretty sure there's not much she could teach him, but it makes her happy to know he'd listen to her if she could. She grins at him.]

Yup! Let's!

[Time skip to arriving at the house or just leave it there and handwave the rest? I'm good with either.]

[umurice]

[Let's handwave and have more shenanigans in the future instead hehehe]
