Oof– something about that frown on her face kinda hurt a bit– she didn’t mean to disappoint. Although, it was definitely, most likely, not because of the fact she disliked her answer.
Still couldn’t help the slight secondhand embarrassment or something from happening even slightly.
Nagi adjusted her glasses, pushing it up the bridge of her nose a bit. The girl in front of her was just simply confused apparently, shoving the thought that this stranger was someway somehow already disappointed in her in the dark, deep depths of her mind. A new thought emerged though, to help shove it away:
She wasn’t sure of what she liked? Not just that– apparently she’s not familiar with movies of all things.
In a world surrounded by digital media, you’d think she’d have some sort of preference to go off of or been to a theater or sOMETHING. She understood being indifferent to things, but this was taking it to a new level.
“Er… Aha..” There’s an awkward chuckle as she rests a hand on the base of her neck. The dreaded question: what she liked. Oh boy… Okay– Calm down. Just– tell her calmly. There’s nothing wrong with liking Anime. Definitely not. And her preference towards said media was definitely not an obsession. Pfftt–
“I tend to go for the Action and Drama types of Anime personally.” Nagi replied. “There’s this one action one about a Ninja who is constantly trying to prove himself to others. I think it’s a fun time and a good place to start.”
The change in expression from the girl made Hype tilt her head to the side a bit, blinking with confusion as she pondered what might have caused it. Had she said something unsatisfactory? She opened her mouth to utter a polite apology, but opted to remain silent when the girl spoke again, her mannerisms piquing the angel’s curiosity even further, unable to tell if she was feeling nervous or excited. Human emotions were often an enigma to her, after all, though she was trying to get better at deciphering them.
When the girl began to list genres, Hype’s expression eased a bit, a small smile forming on her lips as she could hear the passion in the other’s voice. These movies clearly meant a lot to her, and Hype found herself moved by her words, as simple as they were.
“That sounds interesting.” Her voice still came out monotone, but the words were genuine. “I’d very much like to start with that one, then. Would you mind helping me locate it?”
