"The same way I always do. By the front door," Megumi replied. "Though this time was rather odd, since when I came in, I found girls lying everywhere, and my brother quite definately having not been simply watching. So, do you mind telling me what happened?"
"Well... I know what this looks like..."
"Oh, you don't have to tell me what it looks like. I could tell just by the smell! Man... if there was one thing that I know, it's what this looks like. What I want to know was how it got to this point."
"Ummm..."
"You do know what happened, don't you. Because I'd really think that this isn't quite forgettable."
The Goddess of the Eternal Moment frowned and wondered what she could tell the human girl. It was clear that she couldn't lie to her even if she wanted to, but she herself wasn't quite sure of things. "I don't think that I'll forget that part.
"Uhh... Much as I'm glad that it's left such an impression on you, and that I assume it's my brother who did so, I'd rather not dwell on his exploits, okay? I'd like to know how things got to that point."
"I... Uh..."

"I'm not sure about that either. All I know is that thought was rather hard at the time," Peorth answered.
"I'll bet."
"What would you like me to tell you? It's not like I really stopped to ponder anything. And things are a bit... blurry at the moment."
"Just great... Understandable, but not helpful at all."
"I've just woken up to this, and haven't had the time to be 'helpful'."
"I don't mean you," Megumi commented, "I'm talking about the circumstances. Of course, I seriously doubt that anything would make it easy to deal with this little problem."
"I don't doubt that myself."
"Glad to hear it. Well, not really, but only because I was kind of hoping that I'd be wrong..."
