Chikage Kazama: "Incidentally, Shiranui. Do you like sweets?"

Kyou Shiranui: "Say what? That came outta nowhere. You mean like cakes and parfaits an’ stuff? Can’t say I feel strongly either way; I could take ‘em or leave ‘em..."

Chikage Kazama: "I see. Though, I don't really care, of course."  

Kyou Shiranui: "...Then what’re you askin’ for..."

Chikage Kazama: "I was with my bride the other day, dallying among the commoners, and we proceeded to a pool of sorts. During our time there, Chizuru personally fed me."

Kyou Shiranui: "......"

Chikage Kazama: "I thought the parfait she fed me would taste too plebeian at the time, but in fact it was superior to any other I had ever tasted. Just as I thought: being fed by my dearest heightened the tasting experience..."

Kyou Shiranui: "Ahh... So, what percentage of this was just your delusions talking? Well, this much heat's bound to get to your head. You gotta make sure you keep yourself hydrated..."

Chikage Kazama: "Say what you will, it was no delusion!"

Kyou Shiranui: "Even if it wasn't, you musta embellished it. Like with the parfait, you prob’ly told her ‘Feed it to me!’ and press-ganged her into doin’ it."

Chikage Kazama: "......"

Kyou Shiranui:  "......"

Kyou Shiranui: "...Bullseye, huh?"

Chikage Kazama: "...I see, I went at her too strongly, leaning in towards the spoon, so it was my fault. Is that what you want me to say? Tsk. I didn't think I'd receive any remotely reasonable scolding from the likes of you, Shiranui."

Kyou Shiranui: "R-Right. What you said just now kinda pisses me off, but that's basically it. If you wanna persuade a lady, you can’t just take: you’ve gotta giv―"

Chikage Kazama: "In other words, I should have fed her first to set the tone, you mean."

Kyou Shiranui: "That's not what I mean!!"
