"Hey," she said, folding her arms. "Don't call anime cartoons. Anime isn't for children. Cartoons are."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadrmrzAeZL
For the first time that evening, Elias looked genuinely caught off guard.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqul51ihzO
He immediately lifted both hands in surrender.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcerHuu37tQ
"Wait," he said with a sheepish laugh. "I didn't mean it like that. I choose the wrong word."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvMHoPDY9k
His expression softened into sincere regret.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyV5KqsUI3
"I'm sorry, Rei."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPIY29yPfk
He met her eyes without trying to defend himself.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnlIml4E7j
"You're right. Anime is a medium with incredible depth and complexity. Calling it a cartoon is like calling a novel a bedtime story."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDFGZ3kSIi
He let the apology hang between them for a moment before adding quietly,
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhTFvT4PcO
"Thank you for correcting me."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3Pt3gPCE7
Rei studied him for a second before giving a small nod.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8azV1dKst
"Good."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTmUtn7a92
A relieved smile spread across his face.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrM9kTvjfje
"I'm glad we settled that," he said. "I'd hate to end up on your bad side this early."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dfsQRGmBC
The tension melted away, replaced by easy laughter.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcfuuoExef
He leaned casually against the railing.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUSF7ABHnB
"So... since I've admitted I'm completely inexperienced in this area..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKyJtdCder
His eyes sparkled with curiosity.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnUy2icjiY
"Recommend something."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Vbcc0pfoo
"Not just anything," he added. "Give me something that'll actually make me feel something. You said music has to match the mood, right? I think stories should, too."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGL1qG2vGz
Rei laughed.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0a65GpMzI
"So..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsEe6FEeAB
"What kind of mood are you looking for?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4D1EWfGmq5
She began counting on her fingers.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw6dM3qeFe
"Funny? Romance? Detective? Mystery? Horror? Or something that's completely psychology-based?"
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFY9rqqbt8
Elias rested his chin on his hand, pretending to think deeply.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy47fBoiOww
"Psychology."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNLva1eg1e
His answer came without hesitation.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRQK9A0dK2
"I want something that'll make me question what's real and what's not."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ286gVD5cwd
He smiled.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eYbWq4ccZ
"The kind of story that stays in your head long after the credits roll."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzsRqswgk0
His gaze met hers.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX0zD88Xgv
"I don't want an easy story, Rei."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPbxEUZPMY
"I want complicated people. The kind where no one is completely right... and no one is completely wrong."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDmmfGSCtu
He paused before adding quietly,
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsuKDvOJvH
"I want to see the world through your eyes, even if it's only through a screen."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfhXX2sWoG
Rei thought for a moment.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyufl1zJUb
"Then..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMyaResCIM
"I have two recommendations."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e1EDq31mA
She looked at him thoughtfully.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKHR7gwq6G
"Classroom of the Elite is probably the best."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vBmpaRkQB
She smiled faintly.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLqPShGUTQ
"But it already has four seasons, and it's still continuing."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpir4BbDK9
She hesitated.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyh6vfFs5l
"So..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOoD1VsObY
"If you want something shorter, watch Tomodachi Game."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7G8EN6TR5
"It's only one season."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU3W1f8exx
"Twelve episodes."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cul5HzEU7
Elias repeated the title under his breath.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxC1bZ68N1
"Tomodachi Game..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnForqbTv6
He smiled slowly.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI7TNWCtLD
"That already sounds like trouble."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5yQh0cfUF
He imagined the story before he'd even watched it.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu9GZDcYAw
"Betrayal."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYEz9wLTgB
"Psychological manipulation."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh8QqN9G9a
"Games that test trust."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c8aXoUZiM
He chuckled softly.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ256rZgmxib
"Yeah..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtdwpTBY33
"I have a feeling this one is going to mess with my head."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwsbSPsmnT
His eyes returned to hers.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBXUCwvnZY
"And somehow..."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8kKEaDCwK
"I think that's exactly why you chose it."
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBQLjFqFMf
Rei only smiled.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm6bJwmd01
The city lights shimmered below them as the night carried on.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4CTFlCzaG
The conversation had drifted far from introductions and polite small talk.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZZaBCQQch
It had become something quieter.15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4NFb0QHjW
