Thank you for coming to ice cream with us last weekend. I wasn't sure if you'd want to, but I'm glad you did.

I should thank you.
[it's more an observation than any actual expression of gratitude. there is a little something different in her face, to be fair; it's not as though the expressionless aspect has slipped, but perhaps it's a little softer, in the eyes and the mouth. her voice is slightly more expressive, if you've heard enough of her to measure the difference. other than that, she is the same girl who dipped her legs in the fountain little more than a month ago.]

It was nice to eat ice cream with friends again. [ It comes out slightly more wistful than she'd wanted. ] More than nice.

Yes.

Does the lack of an afterlife here bother you too? An afterlife that we can sense, at least. [ she knew it bothered Nico, and she knew that Ai also had duties in that regard. ]

Somewhat.
[it is also reassuring, in a way, but she does not say that.]

[ For her part, Elaine thinks that maybe, for those who can usually feel such things, whatever afterlife exists here is blocked for them. For the part of her that's still acutely aware of her role and responsibilities, Elaine is curious; she's been looking into alternative afterlife arrangements after all. She's quiet, considering. ]
