"Hey, Yato."

He looked up curiously to find Hiyori staring at him in earnest. "Uh, yeah?" He blinked, his slight nervousness coming through his voice.

"If you were human, what would you wish for?" Just a moment after the words had passed her lips, her hand came flying up to cover them and her cheeks started to flush a light shade of pink, "S-sorry, you don't have to answer that if you don't want to. I was just curious."

Yato blinked again, taken back. "It's fine," He rubbed the back of his neck, "I… I guess it wouldn't be much different from now, really. I'd just want to spend more time with you and Yukine." He shifted away from her but gave a small grin to himself, "But I doubt I'd actually go to any god and formally wish for it."

Hiyori tilted her head and furrowed her eyebrows, "Why's that?"

"Stubbornness, I guess, is the best answer." He looked back to her and continued smugly, "Besides, I don't think I'd bother worrying about gods and stuff if I had the choice."

"That's… surprising, coming from a god." She commented breathlessly.

He shrugged, "Just being honest. At least, that's how I think I would be. Could be wrong, though." He scooted just a little bit closer to her, "Sometimes when I spend a lot of time with you, I almost can forget I am a god momentarily. And that's how I feel then—that I can just forget about all of those things." Upon seeing her uncertain expression, he clarified, "Not that I don't want to be one… it's just… complicated I guess. I do want to be well known and loved but you know, at the same time, it is kinda nice to just be your personal god of fortune."

She flushed even more but a small smile crossed her lips as she suggested, "You can always be both."

Yato hummed thoughtfully, "Hmm. Suppose you're right."
