When Everyone finally sat down, and each of them has a bowl of Oyakodon (Somehow Neptune can't translate it).... Yoshino couldn't help but be silent and observe the others movement.

Since to her, it made sense that both of them is more knowledgeable in regards of this new experience. Though Neptune... Not really a Japanese citizen couldn't help but be stumped at what to do.... Do Japanese people pray before eating or something..? Even though this morning Neptune did ate together with Shido- but because of the atmosphere they did eat quickly without doing some... Things?

"Itadakimasu"

Shido started by clapping his hand while saying that phrase. Promptly making both Yoshino and Neptune to copy his movements while Yoshino bowed her head shyly while doing so.

But when Yoshino tried Shido's Oyakodon, she couldn't help but let out a content sound obviously liking the taste and ate the whole thing in a matter of seconds. In Neptune's side, she ate the food normally but still like the taste if her sparkling eye's where an indication of her love for Shido's cooking.

Though Yoshino quickly finishing her share and couldn't help but shyly looked at Shido's way in embarrassment.

This confuses both CPU and Human when Yoshino tried to say something but could only let out a few words like:

"Gu...sh...ko..."

"..?" "...??"

Seemingly giving up when Yoshino didn't speak anymore but made a thumbs up at Shido and ducking her head afterwards at the table.

This made Neptune smile at Yoshino's cute action while Shido reaction was just smiling wryly and gave his own thumbs up right back. But when Shido made a thoughtful expression and looked at Yoshino.

"Hey.........Yoshino. There are some things I would like to know though- can I ask you a few questions?"

When Shido suddenly said this, the question only made Yoshino tilt her head at the side, clearly confused at the sudden question. While this made Neptune a little bit wary.

'Clearly this was Shido's way in getting information.... And taking it as his advantage to flirt with Yoshino too... Damn pedophile... Not even taking a rest to postpone at adding new girls at his harem...'

Neptune thought in slight defeat, clearly going off the rails with her train of thoughts.

" Well.. Yoshino- it's about your puppet, Yoshinon? You seem to care about it preciously, what kind of existence is that to you...?" Shido continued a very good question, making Neptune curiosity picked.

When Yoshino got asked that question, she timidly opened her mouth with difficulty.

"Yoshinon, is ............a frie...nd, and also...............a he...ro."

"Hero?"

When asked again, Yoshino nodded.

"Yoshinon is... ...my, ideal... ...yearnings of... ...myself. Unlike me... ...not weak, unlike me... ...not hesitant... ...it's strong, and cool..."

"Your ideal self...huh." Shido said with a thoughtful face.

But somehow Neptune hearing this, couldn't help but feel a sense of Deja-vu at what Yoshino said. Somehow that feeling was back, that foreign feeling she felt before when everything was in chaos back at when Tohka and Yoshinon fought.
