[A tiny, nearly hysterical laugh escapes Sonia as she tries to push past the despair that she knows is never far.

Will never be too far...]

I believe it is too late for that. I had a run-into with her back when the Amegahara Fox-kin were around the city. I made it very clear that I wanted nothing to do with her and that as long as she stayed away from my friends, then I wouldn't tell the rest of the city what sort of person she is or ruin her where she stood.

[And it's one thing that Sonia would have done without any regret, one life she would gladly have flowing from her hands personally.]

I will keep in mind that you both are here to assist me should I have need, but I would rather spend more enjoyable time together.

[She sneaks a hand from Tokoyami's grasp to caress Dark Shadow's cheek while she squeezes the hands holding her other hand.]

Especially during this month of revelry.
