[ Despite herself, warmth fills her chest when he says "we". His freedom is her priority, but it still surprises her a little when he seems so determined to see her free too...

But hearing what he wants to do makes her perk up, her anger mostly fading now. Her grudge against Teresa burns all the more, but she can push that aside for now. ]

Travelling sounds like a good idea, I remember you said about going to Disney before... And you should absolutely go back to Korea. Though I'll need to insist that you send photos when you do.

[lowestclass]

I won't send you a single photo. [ he responds immediately--moving to cross his arms over his chest. ]

Because I'm insisting you come with me. So you'll have to take photos with me.

[ take that. ]

[crisantemo]

[ Wait what -

- Oh. Lapis freezes for a moment, eyes wide as she blinks up at him. ]

... Oh. [ Then she snaps out of her shock, quickly clearing her throat. ]

I mean, of course absolutely! But you... really want me to go to Korea with you?

[ She had assumed, maybe, he would want to return home by himself. She didn't want to intrude on that. ]

[lowestclass]

Of course I do.

I have good memories of Korea, but. I'll probably have to hide my face in certain places. I'm supposed to be 'dead', after all.

But going there alone? I don't think I'd want to do that.

It wouldn't be fun unless you're there with me.

[crisantemo]

[ When he says it like that, Lapis really can't argue. Nor does she want to, honestly. ]

Then of course I'll go with you. Though you'll need to help me with translating some things.

[lowestclass]

Maybe we can treat it like an educational trip. I'll be quizzing you on things like signs and menus.

...

Ah, do you know what I miss the most? Night markets.

[crisantemo]

Mm, I'll do my best to get everything right.

[ Time to ramp up her reading lessons then - ]

Night markets? What are those like?

[lowestclass]

Night markets are the best. They're like long streets taken over by pop-up stalls, and people cook insanely delicious, and heinously cheap food. Like corn dogs with french fries attached to the dough, or pizza toast--which is like an omelette sandwich but with pepperoni and cheese...

[ ...his stomach growls. ]

[crisantemo]

Oh, that does sound good... We'll absolutely have to go when we -

[ Lapis cuts herself off when she hears his stomach growl, brows raising before chuckling under her breath. ]

I might not be able to make the same, but I think I could make some pizza toast.
