Offhandedly Looking Out For You

Taki-chan and the others sure are taking their sweet time.

...

So you like the notebook, then?

...Yeah.

I'll use it so much.

...So long as you like it, good.

Apropos of nothing, have this too.

Huh...

Sunscreen. It washes off with soap.

...

You go out a lot, right, Tomori-chan?

You always lose track of time, fixated on picking up stones and feathers.

...Yeah.

See, even in winter there's UV rays. You need to apply this to protect your skin from the sun.

Protect...

Um, thanks. I don't really get it though...

I figured.

But I could've sworn Anon-chan talked skincare with you before.

She's talked about it, yeah.

She said I needed to be more meticulous... But I couldn't really parse what she meant.

Ohhh...

Should I be more meticulous about it..?

Just protecting your skin is enough, I'd say...

I can't say I wouldn't want to see it, though. You, donning a full face of perfect makeup.

Huh?

You never really wear any, and I was just thinking you'd probably look nice with your face all dolled up. It's your birthday, y'know, so why not try it?

I don't think I'm ready... but if you want it, Soyo-chan...

I'm pulling your leg. I would like it if you got into skincare, but only do makeup if you really want to.

I'm sure there'll come a day when you need to.

...! I see. When that day comes, I hope everyone will be there to teach me all about it.
