Stitch #82.

I had, of course, absolutely no intention of making an appearance at that ball. However, it occurred to me that as Doumeki-san began to improve, it would be something nice, so entirely for his sake, I attended. It also gave me a very good excuse to bow out as early as I liked.

I did not strive to be recognized, but this was my mask

[anti_buttons]

You don't know?

Might as well go to a proper source on this one:

law
-noun
1. the principles and regulations established in a community by some authority and applicable to its people, whether in the form of legislation or of custom and policies recognized and enforced by judicial decision.
2. any written or positive rule or collection of rules prescribed under the authority of the state or nation, as by the people in its constitution.

Someone needs to realize when they're being teased.

[anti_buttons]

With this place, one can never be too certain. If I had assumed you were teasing when actually you were serious, it would have been worse than this misunderstanding.

[dreamsofnoah]

Oh~, really?

Hmm, what's your opinion on establishing laws?

[anti_buttons]

Really. In that case, you would have remained ignorant.

I think it a necessary step.

[dreamsofnoah]

Considering what laws are, I wouldn't have minded.

A step towards what~?

[anti_buttons]

I'll attribute that to your age.

Order.

[dreamsofnoah]

Hee~, you do that, I suppose it would be accurate enough.

I think you're missing the whole point of the City.

[anti_buttons]

I'm fighting the whole point of the City.

[dreamsofnoah]

How noble of you~
