If only that had worked...

Did you get any for yourself?

No, it was a single dish.

Before you offer the little you have-

I'm not interested.

We promised to indulge when we returned to our true reality, didn't we? I would prefer my first taste to be at the restaurant itself and not a carbon copy from a crystal.

Surprisingly, I wasn't going to offer for that exact reason.

It's incredible, but I agree - we should both experience the restaurant itself for the first time together. I only got takeout last time, too.

You've truly never eaten there prior? I'm surprised.

Where else have you wanted to go? There must be a great number of restaurants and areas to visit on your list. I'm curious.

No... it's a little too pricey for me. I'd been curious about it for a long time and splurged on takeout for a special occasion.

[ Hah, actually– ]

It's been so long since we first talked about it, but I can tell you now - I bought lunch for Kurusu and I on my last day at Shujin.

Anyhow - you're right about that, there are plenty of places I'd like to go! Why, do you think we'll have time for more than one lunch?

[Of course it was a Kurusu. Something in his heart-

Does nothing at all.]

One lunch, then perhaps a dinner too.

In regards to Kurusu, given his penchant for applying to every business in the city, I'm shocked he didn't already work there by the time you bought that.

[Could've gotten a free meal. Sadge.]

How did you know I tried to get his employee discount at Ore no Beko...

[Maruki - that's just pathetic.]

Try your luck at Triple Seven instead.

I wasn't THAT broke!

So you'll exploit your relationship at one business, but not another? It's no different, regardless of funds.

What a thin moral line you stand you stand on.

[ He's being so stupid. Maruki's impossibly fond. ]

That's right, and now I'll be able to exploit another relationship for half-off coupons for the Detective Prince's favorite iced coffee. What a life!

For the record-

That one isn't my favorite, though it's touted as such and I go along with it for the company's image.

I bought it because it was often 1+1. People noticed, it went viral among my fans and I got a sponsorship deal. I don't like or dislike any particular line.

[ s q u i n t whilst s l u r p i n g the best udon he's ever had ]

So when you told me not to drink one of the brands that we received months ago because it was your favorite...
