[That little sigh doesn't escape his notice, Hiyori throwing his travel partner a glance. It doesn't take much reading between the lines to deduce that Elan-kun is still as lost as ever. Well, all this wandering around might be his attempt to find himself.]

Elan-kun still has some thinking to do, huh? Maybe you can do some in the bath again, while looking at the stars! I'm sure the view will be much lovelier this time around...

[Compared to last time.

... It's not like Hiyori can't understand. Nagisa also did a lot of wandering. That was also an attempt to find himself, wasn't it?

He, on the other hand, prefers not to do so much ruminating. If there's a problem or something he regrets, he'd rather distract himself with something fun. Elan-kun's approach might be different, but he could surely also use a little fun in his life.

Which is why his last statement makes Hiyori smile.]

I don't think they'll accept that as payment no matter how pretty your voice is. But I'll gladly accept it, and that's what matters! You're right that this is a happy accident, or rather, a wonderful coincidence, so we might as well make the most of it! ♪

[Which includes karaoke and food in his mind. Anything else, well... that might be difficult to accomplish with his unit hanging around. But one thing at a time!]
