Not for your eyes, that's all.

[ this is terribly written as well. none harlequin romance smut for izumo. ]

It's probably more of an adult book.

[sacredchants]

[ ....


...?? ]

Is it that bad?

[chanteuser]

It's very.... uh....



Purple prose-ish.

[sacredchants]

Oh.

[ she likes romance but. not like this. ]

I guess we can put that back.

[chanteuser]

[ she’s already on it ]

There’s... probably better variations of the genre around here. I wonder if they have recommended lists.

[sacredchants]

[ bye trashy romance novel.... izumo will never read you.

but also frowns. ]

Wouldn't that be too convenient if they had one?

[chanteuser]

[ trashy bad, porny romance novel. no, she won't. ]

... It's marketing itself as a bookshop, isn't it? They usually try and tell you want they think is good. Or profitable for them, I guess.

[sacredchants]

[ that's valid. reading mangas is not the same as harlequin romances. ]

But, we can just take them without paying for them. Is it really making a profit then?

[chanteuser]

... technically we are kinda stealing whenever we take things, aren't we? I tried leaving notes, but there's no one here to receive them.

[ she's a criminal now.... ]

[sacredchants]

[ izumo's been a criminal. ]

I've never left a note; I didn't think to.

[chanteuser]

[ izumo! :( ]

Oh... it just felt like something I should do. But I don't think you missed anything, they all just got gathered up and put to one side, I think.

[sacredchants]

[ she can do what she wants!!! ]

Was it the leaders doing that? They seem like the sort to do these kind of things.

[chanteuser]

Looking back... probably? They were probably just tidying it up, but we know there isn't anyone else around here.

[sacredchants]

I wonder what they even thought about when they saw all of those slips of paper compared to what all was missing.

[chanteuser]

Well... it's not like we have money to pay for them. I just wrote about arranging a payment or doing an "I Owe You"...

[sacredchants]

Do we really owe them anything at this point? Or is it just a mutual beneficial existence?

[chanteuser]

This was the first week. I thought I was taking things from a normal shopkeeper.

[sacredchants]

[ ......... ]

I did not.

[chanteuser]

[ she just looks at her. izumo. ]

[sacredchants]

[ casually.


looks in the opposite direction. ]

[chanteuser]

[ siiiiigh. ]

I guess it didn't really matter in the end. But I do feel bad when we make more work for them.

[sacredchants]

[ look.

she can learn from her crimes. ]

Yeah, I definitely do now.

[chanteuser]

We do that more than I'd like to admit. Causing them trouble.

[sacredchants]

[ ah.

and that gets izumo looking downcasted. ]

Some of them more harm than others, too.

[chanteuser]

[ ... ? ]

... Some people don't trust them. I can't say I blame them, because the whole situation is bad. But it's not their fault either.
