> "Just the way travel time worked out this time. I don't intend on this being the regular. But anyway, let's get this show on the road."
> Commence takeoff procedure, with the intent to pass control off to Koa in fairly short order once it is feasible to do so.

>You board, run through all the necessary checks and procedures, and soon you're ready to go! Take off is as easy as can be expected, you're getting quite good at this. Soon you are far enough away from the Lady of Kashima's manor that you feel comfortable handing the controls over.

> Oh, that's less interesting than talking about us.
> Is Sanae still in here, or did she skedaddle off to her room or something?

> It's still at least a little interesting though.

> Unsummon our chibi-self.
> "Good question. Honestly, I couldn't tell you for sure. But I woke up this morning and found I was able to do this."
> Resummon our chibi-self in front of Nitori, and fly her into Nitori's chest for a hug.

> You unmake and remake the chibi you, this time charging into Nitori.
> "U-Uh... interesting." Nitori jolts a bit. "That sounds useful for getting other angles for pictures, I guess."

> To Nitori: "Oh, you don't need to do that, Momi looks just fine as she is~"
> To Momizi: "Don't you worry, I've been keeping myself busy."
> Summon our chibi-self behind Momizi, and have her glom onto Momizi's tail in a hug. (If her tail is wrapped in the towel, simply hug her back.)

> You make your little self and cli-
> Momizi catches you before you can grab on.
> "I'm still wet. Don-"
> "Huh?!" Nitori jumps in surprise. "You had a kid?! Since when?!"
> Momizi silently releases the little Aya.
