Trust "Escaping Oni"

Story Description: Soukaku almost passes out from hunger right there on the street... So you treat her to a hearty meal, but the impact on your wallet is equally hearty. It's all worth it... right?


Soukaku: Ah... Smells nice...
Soukaku: I wanna... eat... I wanna...
Icon Dialogue Talk No no no you can't eat me!
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Soukaku, calm down, please, don't bite me...Soukaku, calm down, please, don't bite me... / Wait, no, no, Soukaku! You can't eat this... I mean, you can't eat me!Wait, no, no, Soukaku! You can't eat this... I mean, you can't eat me!‍)
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (How did she get so hungry...? Doesn't matter, gotta get her some food ASAP!)
Icon Dialogue Talk I'll get you something to eat!
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Calm down, Soukaku. There's a restaurant nearby, let's get you something to eat. Just hang in there...Calm down, Soukaku.

I'll get you something to eat, actual food!‍)
You rush to the nearest restaurant and order food in a panic. Soukaku is already mumbling nonsense...
Thankfully, the food comes quickly, and after clearing five plates, Soukaku seems to be feeling better...
Soukaku: ...Proxy, where are we...? Did you bring me here?
Soukaku: I... I didn't do anything weird, did I?
Icon Dialogue Talk You almost ate me!
Icon Dialogue Talk Why are you so hungry?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍When I saw you on the street earlier, you didn't look so good. I said hi, and then you suddenly lunged and tried to devour me whole...

(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Anyway, what happened to you?Anyway, what happened to you? / But seriously, what happened?But seriously, what happened?‍) You were starving!
Soukaku: *sob*... I overslept and didn't have time to eat the breakfast Nagi left for me. I brought it to the office, and just as I was about to take a bite, they called an emergency meeting...
Soukaku: There was no food anywhere in the Hollow... I fought so hard, trying to get back in time, but I still missed lunchtime at the cafeteria...
Soukaku: When I got back to the office... my leftover breakfast was gone. The cleaning lady had even emptied the trash...
Soukaku: There were two cake-looking thingies on Harumasa's desk, and I thought, maybe he wouldn't notice if I ate one...
Soukaku: So I took a bite, but it tasted sooooo weird... And I thought I was gonna throw up! But I didn't! Thankfully!
Icon Dialogue Talk This sounds familiar...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): Why do I feel like... I've heard this story before? I thought you'd remember not to eat stuff on Harumasa's desk by now...
Icon Dialogue Talk Just one bite, so you should've digested that by now...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍You barely ate anything in the morning and you've worked hard, so you've definitely burned off that one bite by now.You barely ate anything in the morning and you've worked hard, so you've definitely burned off that one bite by now. / You've been working hard all day, I'm sure you've already burned off that one bite...You've been working hard all day, I'm sure you've already burned off that one bite...‍)
Soukaku: And then I felt really dizzy... I wanted to go find Nagi to take me for some food but I didn't know where she was...
Soukaku: Someone told me she got pulled into a meeting right after she got back...
Soukaku: And I don't remember much after that...
Soukaku: C-Can I eat more...? I think I'm hungry again...
Icon Dialogue Talk You poor thing...
Icon Dialogue Talk Go ahead, Soukaku. Do you want me to order more?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Looks like you were really starving... Of course you can have more. I'll order now.Looks like you were really starving... Of course you can have more.

Plates are cleared again and again. Finally, Soukaku seems satisfied...
After asking for the check, you stare at the bill in silence...
The total is almost as much as the video store's weekly revenue...
Soukaku: ...Proxy? Did I... eat too much?
Soukaku: I'll pay! I can pay for it!
Soukaku: Here's my wallet... is this enough?
Icon Dialogue Talk Uh... looks like you're a little short...
Icon Dialogue Talk It's fine, I have my credit card.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Umm... no. But it's okay, I have my credit card.Umm... no. But it's okay, I have my credit card. / ...Uhh ...not really. But it's ok, I've got my credit card....Uhh ...not really. But it's ok, I've got my credit card.‍)

Soukaku: I'm sowwy, Proxy... Nagi says I can't have too many Dennies on me, or I'll spend them all on food...
Soukaku: I'll ask her for more Dennies and pay you back...
Soukaku: ...Uh, or maybe... I could work at your video store to pay you back... is that okay?
Icon Dialogue Talk Perfect timing, our AC is broken.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Sounds good. Our AC's broken, maybe you could help us cool the place down?Sounds good. Our AC's broken, maybe you could help us cool the place down? / Sure!

Soukaku: I can totally do that! When do I start?
Icon Dialogue Talk ...I was just kidding.
Icon Dialogue Talk Just consider it a favor.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍Haha, I was just joking. I've got the meal covered, but if you feel bad about it, consider it a favor you can return later.Haha, I was just joking.

(ProtagonistProtagonist): Having an elite operative from Section 6 owe me a favor... I'd say I'm getting the better deal here!
Soukaku: R-Really? I don't have to pay? I ate so much though...
Soukaku: I almost ate you too...
Soukaku: Are you sure just owing you a favor is enough...?
Icon Dialogue Talk You don't have to owe me anything, I liked taking you out to eat.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍It's all good, you don't owe me anything. I enjoyed treating you to a meal. After all, who could bear to see little Soukaku go hungry?It's all good, you don't owe me anything. I enjoyed treating you to a meal.
