'I thought we were friends once,' she almost says, quashing that down just as she nearly blurts 'Please let me forgive you for whatever it is you think you've done,' instead, before she finally just nods. What else can she do here? There's nothing.

Mami can push, but she can tell she'll just meet resistance - and why shouldn't she? They have each other already here. Had she missed her chance? Arrived too late? Why did Sayaka seem to respect her, yet remain so intent on rejecting her at the same time?

"Of course." Her expression shutters, before she glances back up to Sayaka with a little smile. This was a new place, maybe, but getting her hopes up now was as foolish as it had ever been. "I'm sorry to have troubled you, Miki-san. Please know that if you ever need me.." That she'll be there, looking over them for as long as she can. She tugs her hood up, lingering for just a moment to make sure that Sayaka is finished.
