It's such a tiny part of her that loses out to the part of her that wants to respect Hibiki. But it still exists. It's the part of her that thinks of all the horrible things that have already happened just because people wanted to handle stuff by themselves. And it's not like that sort of thing is going to happen to Hibiki, but what--
What if it does?
Without realizing it, Illya reaches back out towards the other girl. Her hand grabs onto Hibiki's sleeve, clinging onto it like she's afraid the other girl will disappear or get hurt the moment she lets go. ]
Can we.. do something together then?
[ If Hibiki doesn't want to leave this place, despite looking like she really wanted to only a moment ago, then-- maybe the best thing she can do for now is make sure she's not alone. ]
I really want to eat ice cream.. [ Look at her at least being smart about this. Framing it like it's some selfish desire - maybe it'll ironically enough make it more difficult for Hibiki to say no than if Illya would tell the truth and show it's actually for the other girl's sake. ] Can we get some together..?
