[He is a god. But though he is... he also acts so human sometimes that she does not even know what to think. How to handle him. How to be... his friend, even though he was the one who used that word in the first place.
Akua said friends challenged you. He did that. A part of thinks that she might break eventually, trying to meet those challenges. That one day he will do something she cannot forgive or tolerate, even if she tells herself he is a god and they are Different, but...
That day has not yet come. And until it does-]
What would you have me do. For you.
[They were... friends, too. But just because they were did not mean she did not feel indebted.]
This is not an exchange, Hayame. This is not something to give me, for me to do. Set is my friend as well. I may not have a piece of him in my space, it is not like that for us -- but I do accept him, and value him.
If he is in danger, I would know of it. I am a guide -- an Intercessor -- it is important to me.
[ But also -- ]
And I would not want either of us to suffer uncertainty.
[... She hates uncertainty. Even if neither possible answer was good- She wanted to know which one it was. One requires mourning, and the other requires vengeance.]
I offered because I wished to.
[Maybe it means she is not a good friend yet. But...]
... It can be something less difficult. If you wish.
[... No, surely she is. Imagining the hint of something she hears in those words. (Akua had called her things like... "dear", and such, before, but she called everyone that, there's no reason for her to react now like-)]

[ She does not require it, an exchange, but Hayame insists, and Akua understands what is unspoken. That hayame... wants to.
So she makes the offer. ]

Do you prefer something heartier, or lighter, for a meal?

So I do not mind what it is as long as there is a lot of it.
