"A... Date? Another?" Lillian tilted her head as she wiped her mouth with a napkin, having just finished her breakfast.
Marionette gave a soft nod, wiping her own mouth as well before speaking:
"Yes... Specifically, one on my birthday."
"Your... Birthday?" Lillian held her chin. "That's on the 14th isn't it?"
"Oh? You remembered?"
Lillian stared into Marionette's eyes, which seemed to stare back in surprise. Her face twitched at the question that seemed to mock her ability to remember.
"Of course, I did." She then grinned, "Why wouldn't I when it's on the topic of my darling pet, eh~?"
Marionette stared at her before glancing down, finding Lillian's hand crawling onto her thigh, her fingers wrapping around it.
The Assassin's eyes lingered on the hand before looking up and towards a coffee mug to the side.
Lillian watched as Marionette drank her coffee without much of a reaction to what she was doing. Her grin faltered slightly, finding it a little disappointing.
