You're such a sweet person, Ishimaru-san. Just promise me that you won't be terribly injured, or else I would feel very sad.
[Never before had she met anyone more determined than Ishimaru. His intensity was almost infectious and she felt fired up just watching him. It made her all the more sure to try and protect him when the time comes, he was her precious cleaning buddy, after all!]
You have a brother? [She wondered if he was younger or older than him. In her mind she was picturing a slight more older version of Ishimaru.] If he is your brother, then he must be impressive and admirable like you. I have yet to meet him but I'm already amazed by his way with words.
[Just from the little bit she learned about him, he already sounded like a really cool person. She hoped that one day, she'd have the pleasure of meeting him.]
Of course! The promise we have made is stronger than steel itself!
Y-you're too kind, Nevermind-san! [Gosh, he'll never get used to all these compliments.] But I promise that all the safety guidelines will be followed to minimize any injury I might sustain! I'll walk around in full body armor if I must!
[Anything to prevent her from feeling sad! ...Not to mention, Ishimaru doesn't want to be terribly hurt either! If he becomes injured, that's more time resting-- which means less time for him to explore and help out!]
Ah! He's my soul brother, rather than blood-related, but a detail such as that matters little when it comes to our manly bond! A bond forged through the heat of a sauna... nothing can come between us!
Bro's far more admirable than me! He's a truly kind person, once you look past his manner of clothing! [And Ishimaru fully intends to help his bro out with that! One small step at a time...!] He is also really strong and a great leader, which is why he's the ultimate bicycle gang leader!
[As Ishimaru continues to talk about Mondo, the air around them becomes warmer, but pleasantly so. He almost seems to be sparkling.]
I trust you to keep yourself safe! Just make sure you are able to see out of that suit of armor, it would be dreadful if you got hurt trying to walk around in that.
[She's giggling at not only how happy she was feeling, but at the mental image of poor Ishimaru walking around in a full suit of armor. Do your best Ishimaru!!]
He's your soul brother? [Such a concept was foreign to her, but that was easily one of the coolest bonds she's ever heard of.] That is very much true! There are some blood brothers who aren't close, but from the way you talk about him, it sounds like you two share a bond that's even closer than being related by blood and I think it's simply wonderful! It's as if your souls are hotter than the sauna itself.
You are very admirable! I couldn't think of a more wonderful bond between two cool and admirable men. [At the mention of his talent, Sonia looks beyond amazed.] Wow, what an amazing talent! I'm sure it takes a lot of guts and bravery to be the leader of a bicycle gang.
[The more she hears about Mondo, Sonia felt even more eager to meet the guy. Ulitmate bicycle gang leader? Hell yes, she wanted to meet him.]
I would love to! Let us hope that maybe one day, he'll make a grand entrance here in Verens.
I'm truly glad you understand! I thought a woman couldn't, but you've proven me wrong! [Then again, he shouldn't expect anything less from his best cleaning buddy!] And indeed, our souls are 'hotter than the sauna itself!' What an excellent turn of phrase! I must use that same line when I reunite with him!
I must be straight with you here, but you will have a hard time finding a stronger bond than ours! [It was formed in the sauna after all!] Bro's the strongest and bravest person I know and if he was here, I have no doubt that he'd be trying his hardest to make things better for everyone!
[Ishimaru lets out a joyous laugh here.] I'm most certain his entrance will be! Bro is many things, but subtle and quiet isn't one of them!
[Says the most subtle and quiet student of them all.]
I'm happy to hear that I'm the first woman to understand! It's truly an honor to hear that. [She's giggling.] Please do! I would love that a lot.
I most certainly believe in that! Just from listening to your story, this has to be one of the strongest bonds I've heard about. It's touching! Everyone should strive to have a bond as close as yours.
[Just thinking about it made her heart feel like it was bursting with happiness. Seeing Ishimaru so happy while talking about his bro was moving. She hoped that one day she could achieve a bromance on the level that he and Mondo shared.]
Oh? That makes me all the more interested in meeting him! Not only does he sound kind, but he sounds fun to be around as well.
[Sonia hasn't even met Mondo yet and she already likes him!!]
If you don't mind, may I ask for your... [She pauses, trying to think of a recent slang she's learned.] your broski's name?
I have not heard of the term 'broski' before, but I assume you're asking the name of my eternal soul brother! In which case, I'll happily give it to you!
[He raises his hands, a large smile still stretched across his face as he finally gives out his name.]
It's a term I learned recently, myself. Although, your phrase "eternal soul brother" sounds even more awesome than broski!!
[Sonia watches him with wide eyes and even leans in as she awaits the name of his bro. It almost felt like she was watching one of her Japanese dramas and was waiting for the thrilling conclusion. This was too exciting!!]
Mondo Oowada...
[She repeats his name, slowly. If she could recall, Mondo meant "Family crest". Sonia mutters his name to herself a couple more times and suddenly, she starts grinning at Ishimaru.]
It's a spectacular name! It's definitely fitting for a bicycle gang leader. It's a name that I shall remember from here out.
Then I declare from the bottom of my heart, that I hope Mondo Oowada will eventually appear here! The eternal soul brothers must have a reunion, after all.
How exciting! I will be hoping for this day to happen. I'm honored I might even get to be the first to meet him. It will make my heart soar to see you close bros reunite once again.
[Suddenly, in almost an instant, something dawns on Sonia and her eyes immediately grow wide at the realization. A loud gasp escapes from her lips.]
Ishimaru-san, I feel so ashamed! I... completely forgot about looking for that thief we were searching for. [She nervously gulps and looks at him with worried eyes, hoping he didn't think any less of her.] I had so much fun chatting with you, that it slipped from my mind.
But I do not regret talking to you like this! In fact, I enjoyed it.
[Ishimaru looks just as mortified about this as her. H-how could he have forgotten about justice?! He doesn't deserve to be on the public morals committee after this!]
What are we doing, just spending idle time with chit-chat?! As enjoyable as it has been, we can't forget about that conniving criminal!
Come, Nevermind-san, as we search for that thief! No more talking, get those feet moving!
Yes, you are absolutely right! We have criminals to apprehend and bring to justice!! The most important thing right now is to clear your good name and prevent anyone else from falling victim to another crime!
[Sonia still feels bad about getting so caught up in their conversation but after hearing listening to him, it doesn't take long for her to immediately cheer up. Even if they just recently met, there was something about him that always made her feel determined whenever she was around him.]
Right-O, Ishimaru-san! I shall move my feet three times as fast to make up for my previous blunder. Let us bring justice to this place once and for all.
