[It's actually a surprise that Kotone is surprised! Not to say that Dara hasn't been trying to keep things on the downlow, BUT she's always so easygoing and unruffled. The sudden uptick in energy throws the god off, and the extra compliment at the end makes it worse. Which is why Dara turns towards Kotone and places her hands on her shoulders, head slightly bowed.]
Okay, I get it. Don't push yourself with trying to make me feel better.
[Cannot compute people wanting to date her. Sha-Ming does not count.
The ordeal of having to be the one to make the first move...which you are also DEFINITELY not the kind of person who makes the first move! Shinjiro lucked out. (Unless their fake date during the party counts, which she doubts.)]
[Honestly, part of it is just that Kotone deeply, truly wants Shinji to be happy. That there's someone out there who does care for him enough to want to date him -- how can she not be thrilled? Especially if it's somebody like Dara, who's genuinely a good person.
Taking both of the goddess's hands in hers, Kotone squeezes them gently. It's a little difficult to tone down the enthusiasm, but she'll manage in the interest of making sure Dara knows she' serious about this.] If you really like him, you gotta just go for it. Make the most of the time you have together, right?
