The elder girl frowned slightly. "I'm not totally sure that this would be a good idea."
"Why not?"
"This isn't something you come across everyday. But why are you so hot about trying this out?"
"Because I might just be able to get an edge in my fights."
"You," Nabiki muttered, "who have always been training to get better, are going to use this to win a fight?"
"Of course. Unless you want to get sold into slavery."
"Not yet, at least. If I were to become a slave, I'd want to do it on my terms."

"See?"
"Whatever. If you want to go this route, be my guest," Nabiki drawled with a shrug.
"I will," Akane replied, and then turned to the sales yoma. "So, what do we start with?"
Otori put on a smile that wasn't totally fake. "Why don't we pick out what sort of changes you'd like?"
"Sure."
