She stops to look in the windows of Gladrags Wizardwear, alongside an older girl she thinks she recalls seeing in Hufflepuff colours. At her exclamation, she finds herself smiling - with their uniform being the same every day, it's been a while since she had to think about clothes, and although she's gotten used to the knee-length skirts and striped ties, she misses her old dresses.]
They have so many different styles, [she observes aloud, curiously peering in the window.]

They do, don't they? [ Now she's already back to gushing at the clothes on display. ] It's much better than just the plain robes we had first. It was a total fashion disaster, mark my words!
[ She lightly taps against the glass, as if she's marking her own words already. ]

They're - quite different from what I'm used to, [she explains, looking up at robes a deep shade of violet.] These seem far more like what I'm used to.

Even if they're practical, they could be a bit more stylish! It's all a matter of design. That being said, they must have someone terrible at design in that school.. [ She whispers the last part to the other girl, as if it's some conspiracy nobody else can hear about. ]
... Really? You had stuff like this at home? It still all seems way too fantastical for me..

Having succeeded at that (somewhat), Akito decides that he would like to look at the owls available for purchase, but notices a familiar figure nearby.]
Ah... Aino-san?

[ She recognizes that voice immediately, and her head immediately turns like some kind of owl (although not all the way around, she's not inhuman) to spot the person, a smile breaking out on her face as she finally detaches herself from the window. ]
Ah, good afternoon, good afternoon! Are you out here today too?

This is the first time we've been able to leave the castle grounds. I wasn't going to miss it! Plus I need to buy a few things anyway.

[ yes, she's probably being overly melodramatic by speaking as some sort of old man even though she's only 16. ]
I know I can't stay in there forever, either way.

I know I'm not going to stay in there forever. I'll find a way home, or I'll die trying to.

I don't mind sticking around here for a bit though. It is a little nice.

[He smiles, small but honest, and scuffs his foot in the snow again.]
It's better than that cold old castle, at least.

After all, they're your friends, right? Friends always wait for each other, no matter what! [ then she does turn her head to him again, just to point - first at him, then at herself. ] Just like us!
[ yes, she decided that all by herself.. ]

So it would be tactically disadvantageous for them to wait for me. I'm sure they know that I'll find them again someday, though.
[He is surprised at her proclamation, but is glad as well - he had begun considering her a friend since their first conversation.] Friends don't always have to wait - they just have to always keep faith in each other.

That's not right. Even if it would be better for them to not wait.. If they're real friends, they would wait for you. That's what I believe.. from my friends, too.

[He waves a hand absently, using it to add emphasis to what he's saying.]
In Kogarasumaru we will separate and continue on, because we have faith that we will find our way back to each other.
