"You don't even need to buy a Halloween costume," Natsume cracked open an eye, not turning in her seat as she appraised the man seated next to her, "your ridiculous outfit already looks like one." ( wow. i cannot believe her )
Why ... had they ended up sitting next to each other ... ? A terrible oversight on his part? An intentional choice on her part? A horrible coincidental accident? Either way, he was ... not particularly comfortable with this arrangement.
He'd been hoping that Natsume had fallen asleep--maybe then he could just surreptitiously sneak off--but that was clearly not the case. He should probably take offense at her comment, but he was too unnerved by having the psychic sitting so close beside him.
"Well, a Champion must be prepared for any situation." Which was ... true ... so ... that was fine, right?
