Um. [ Since Homra had invited her to this trip the answer should be yes. Asuna has no idea if they consider her a part of Homra but she does war at the bar...

But a part of her wants to be selfish and spoiled. ]

Do you think they'd like it? If not, it's fine if we go. Right?

[ ... Does she want to go alone??? She wants to go alone. But Homra should stick together. But Asuna's cute.

... ]

Yeah, I guess...

[ Asuna's cute!?

It's a date. ]

Classes will be starting for you again by then, right?

[ HE AGREED. ] I'll pack a lunch.

[ She's already planning things to bring. SanDWICH KUNS. ]

Yeah. I won't be able to work as often at the bar since I'll be focusing on my studies. I want to get into a good college.

[ Thinking about not going to the bar nearly every day makes her a little forlorn. ]

[ The strange, giddy feeling he gets when she says "lunch" comes crashing down. ]

But we can still hang out, right? We can still hang out.

[ Because they're friends. ]

[ Yata may have lost that giddy feeling but Asuna feels her heart jump when he asks if they can hang out. ]

Wh... you mean come to see me at my college?

Yeah! Um... Is that cool?

[ Please say yes please say yes please say yes— ]

... Yes.

[ She's touched he would come see her. That he would go out of his way to go to her college. ]

I'll show you around. You can see the classes I take and the place I'm staying.

[ The end of her work doesn't have to spell the end... He's so happy, he jumps in the air. Yes, Asuna is still on his shoulders. ]

Yahoo! I'm going to college!

[ OH GOD

She wraps her legs around him more tightly and grabs his head for balance. HE'S SO EXCITED FOR COLLEGE. ]

Y-Yata-kun!?

[ How can he jump with her on his shoulders how strong is he!! But his excitement about school... that's endearing as fuck. ]

... Do you want to sit in a class with me? [ SHE WILL BE SO LONELY. But if Yata is excited about school that's GOOD. Didn't he drop out? ]

Yeah, but only because it's with y—

[ See, he's not as excited about school as he is about Asuna. ]

I mean... I'll go to wherever you are... 'cause I dunno my way around... whatever.

[ Only because it's with... her?

Actually, Yata being around while she goes to school makes her excited. More than going to college. She won't admit it, but she was anxious about going to a place where she didn't know anyone.

She's so happy, just thinking about him walking around with her on campus. ]

If you come within the first week, we can explore together! I won't know where anything is either so we can look around.

Is that okay? I don't have an ID.

[ Then again, he could always just steal one. Nevermind. Either way, he wants to spend more time with her when she leaves the bar. It'll be a little lonely otherwise. ]

[ Ah. Maybe Homra is rubbing off on her because they are THUGS or maybe she just doesn't want to be lonely because she replies with, ]

It'll be fine. You don't need an ID to get into class, you only need it for things like checking out books or getting discounts at the shops.

[ She's not breaking any rules this is fine. He may need it to get on the premises... ]

And I'll let you borrow books and paper.

Hmm... alright. I'll do it. That way, you'll have a friend on your first day of class! Those can get lonely.

... Ah. [ He smirks. He gets it. ] You're worried about that, aincha?

[ FROWNS and considers stealing his hat again. But she just pushes it down over his eyes. ]

N-no. [ Yes. ]

I would be fine on my own. What worries me is if you want to see the college, I should show you around so you don't get into trouble.

[ He's a thug all he does is get into trouble ]

Hey! [ DON'T PULL ON HIS HAT. ] I don't always get into trouble. And I can't see!

[ asun you have got to stop this ]

[ HE DOES A LOT. Even with Kusanagi.

She keeps her hands around the edge of his hat, hands covering his eyes on top of it. ]

That was the point! [ In her mulling, she's silent. ]

When you come back to the bar sometimes, you're injured... [ SHE NOTICES but she doesn't say anything. ]

[ His lips part. Asuna noticed? She may only be a part-timer, but even she's aware of what they do. He never talks about it; the last thing he wants to do is make her worry. He should be stronger than that. ]

Ehehe, that's... that's nothing. I fall asleep for like a few minutes and I'm all better!

[ You would have to be oblivious and blind not to know what the heck Homra was up to sometimes. They were a gang. None of the boys really talk about it when Asuna is around. She doesn't know why but she doesn't like it.

The person she's most comfortable confronting about it is Yata. Her fingers tighten over his eyes. ]

... I don't like it.

[ She's worried...

This isn't how he wants to hold this conversation. Slowly, he lowers his body to a crouch so that Asuna can get off. ]

[ Ah, she's being told to get off. After a pause, she slides off his shoulders and moves to stand in front of him, carefully tugging his hat up so he can see again.

See Asuna crouching in front of him looking worried yep ]
