Join Me for a Gate Raid?

With a slightly twitching face, Viola lightly coughed before making her voice sound more coquettish. "Are you sure you wouldn't—"

"Yeah, I'm sure. Can I go now? I have other things I need to do."

Silence.

Viola froze in place.

She had never done something as demeaning as that for anyone else, you know! She even pulled her especially explicit dress out of the coffers just for this meeting! From the beginning, she knew this nameless man was something special!

No matter what, she had to have him! For the sake of the Voidling Guild! For if something happened to her inside the World's End Gate!

For everything above, she gave it her all! The cutesy, seductive act and everything!

And yet…

"...You really aren't going to even consider joining the Voidling Guild? I have a benefits page here… Would you like to…?"

Viola gave it one last desperate shot.

"Hmm… Nope, I'm good."

And completely missed!
