"Mm-hm," said Minna skeptically. With a judicious look, she moved the sake bottle out of Mio's reach. "That's enough of that, I think. I need you conscious in the morning."Mio laughed and sat back, slipping an arm around the general and drawing her into a cuddle. "Yes, ma'am."
"You realize it would be terrible for discipline if anyone came in and found us like this," said Minna, making no effort to move away.
"I think today of all days, they'd give us a pass," Mio remarked. Then, after a moment's thoughtful pause, she said, "If what I think happened happened, it reminds me of us back in the day. In Britannia, toward the end."
"I don't know what you mean," said Minna, her tone of voice making it plain that she knew exactly what the FusÅ witch meant.
"Luckily, I'm not a hothead like Kirisame, so when you pulled a gun on me, I just talked you out of using it."
"I never did such a preposterous thing," Minna insisted.
"You did," Mio confirmed, then leaned down and kissed Minna on top of her head. "It was sweet."
"You are a very strange woman," said Minna. "I think it must be combat fatigue."
"Well," said Mio, repeating the kiss, "good thing I'm going on leave tomorrow."
