The question gives her a moment of pause, enough for her to involuntarily glance toward Gojyo again. It's not that Ayumu doesn't like Gojyo because she does. He's been very kind and seems like pleasant company but there's just something about being alone in the temple with three men that puts her a little on edge. It's not enough to trigger a proper fear response though so she nods slowly.

"Sure," she says after a moment, giving Spot an unconscious squeeze, causing the cat to meow quietly.

She pets the feline's head reassuringly a few times, relaxing her grip as smoothly and discreetly as possible, before finally setting him down on the floor. Spot doesn't flee immediately, instead rubbing against her leg, purring and meowing a couple of times, before flopping down unceremoniously on her foot.

"Sake sounds great. Is everything well with Sanzo-sama?"


With all the talk of gods disappearing, one can't be too careful.
