[Smiles a little as he comes up]

Hey. Have you been staying out of this trouble?

[artwithknives]

[He takes a seat beside her.]

[Shiki just smiles and gives her a pat on the head. Not much else to say to that.]

[artwithknives]

...I was in the car too, you know.

[infinitemars]

[Looks at Shiki]

No. You never said that.

[artwithknives]

[infinitemars]

Not exactly. She could have tried to drive on her own.
