[ Not many people use the term pretty to describe Juvia, except for ''pretty intense'', so hearing a stranger say that catches her off guard immediately. Suddenly, Juvia grabs at her straw to swish the water around inside it.
She is very much embarrassed, and also very much trying to play it off like she isn't. ]
[ Aw, Juvia is so cute... whoever it is, it's Misa's job to charm and it seems that this lady isn't too used to treatment like that. ]
You know, guys keep trying to get too familiar with you, even after you say you have a boyfriend... [ She sighs wistfully, playing with the parasol. Even if what she's saying isn't entirely true, it's the fact that she's trying to relate with Juvia in a girl-talk type of way that pushes her to strike up this conversation. ] Misa is just trying to do her job!
[ As Misa explains, Juvia immediately connects it to just one instance she can recall out of all her delusions.. Lyon. Except, it doesn't even count, because Lyon was after Gray the whole time! He was just using Juvia to get to her own (not) boyfriend.. ]
I see..
It must be hard when all you're trying to do is help. [ So she tries relating in some other way, since she can't connect anything to the whole experience Misa is talking about. ] Juvia doesn't like meaningless distractions like that.
[ Thankfully, no one had tried getting too frisky with her yet, because then she'd have to call it off and risk losing the money she would be paid... not even silvers are worth betraying Light, even in an act. ] It'll all be worth it in the end though. I have to start saving up somehow for when he wakes up!
[ Boyfriend..... The word echoes in her mind, suddenly realizing that this is a question that is popping up more and more. Strange. This is strange. ]
We're not dating... but we used to live together. Now, he's in stasis. So Juvia doesn't know what we are. [ The honest truth is what this girl needs to hear.. the reality of their situation. ] Juvia is working hard to get a bigger house for when he wakes up, so we can live together again..
..So I understand, saving money for when he wakes up.
