[It's not a particularly surprising revelation, but it's one he doesn't hear very often. Anyone apart from Anabel and Acerola, in fact. Still, Nanu has to fight down the urge to say something...well, that'll ruin the moment.]
Yeah? [He sounds a little bemused.] I'll try not to be a downer, then.
[As if he would have done it on purpose... ehh, she gets what he means.]
[ She always figures that she doesn't need to, that the way she is around him and how much she seems to want to spend time with him speaks for itself. But as someone who occasionally needs to hear something like that herself... She might get it. ]
Oh, Nanu. [ She laughs, soft and crystalline and warm and it permeates. ] Just be yourself.
[He scowls, not that she can see it, even if her laugh is music to his ears.]
Yeah, well... planned on it. [Just...without the complaining. Which now that he thinks about it, is a major chunk of being himself. Hmm...] Just, uh... see what else you can find out about it, yeah?
[He wants to know more about what he's walking into... and how to modify his behavior so Anabel can have a good time.]
Oh, I don't know. Sometimes you do bend nearly backwards to please me; do not think you've escaped being noticed on that one. [ But she stops in a way that suggests she's fine without carrying on. She just keeps talking, avoiding that first line. ] Of course. I do like to be prepared, after all.

[ He's being awfully cute right now. ]
