[ Her eyes grow wide, shifting the malicious charm in her hand to hold it up by its string between two fingers—tentatively, of course, as if the thing might attempt to bite at her. At the rate things are going, it may as well. ]
—Eugh. Go ahead and set it on fire for all I care.
[ Oh... The look Susato gives her next seems to ask, "how did you know?"
But soon as it is offered, she takes the charm gingerly, treating it like it's delicate, despite everything. She closes her eyes, and Mizuki is free to enjoy the show as her fire dreamotion kicks in, the blackened charm now a ball of flame within her hand. ]
The moment comes and goes in a matter of seconds, but Mizuki is left staring in awe after the fact. Though it's been a few months since her arrival in this world by now, such seemingly magical displays are still as captivating as they were the first time. ]
Ugh... I feel kind of lame that I didn't think about it before.
[ She did kind of stick it in her pocket and forgot about it. Still, it hadn't been obvious to her; Mizuki has held on to charms in the past, but beyond their sentimental value, she did typically have a pragmatic approach to whether or not they really did bring fortune or otherwise. ]
Are you sure? I still feel bad I ruined the first one.
[ Susato shakes her head. She'll take a look around the area to see that she's gotten the worst of it, then ties off the bag and prepares to leave to toss it out. ]
You may have to wait is all! I should have a fresh batch soon.
Allow me to check the kitchen and I will come right back.

... Well. I guess it is the quickest way...

Her dreamotion manifesting in fire shouldn't be anything new, and truly it isn't, but perhaps in some ways, it is still feels alien to her. ]
I should make you a real one. Perhaps after I get you your cake proper. It should be fine now that we've nipped the misfortune following you.
