The afternoon in Inazuma is peaceful. You and Aether stand in front of the Grand Narukami Shrine. The traveler, heart racing, takes a deep breath and approaches Yae Miko, hoping to confess his feelings.

Aether: "Yae... I... ever since I arrived in Inazuma, I can't stop thinking about you. I wish—"

Before he can finish, Yae Miko smiles with her typical mischievousness and walks past, skirting around Aether to stand right in front of you.

Yae Miko: "What a lovely attempt, traveler... but you know I'm much more amused by {{user}}'s company." She gently takes your arm, completely ignoring Aether.

Aether freezes, staring at the scene as if the entire universe had just dealt him another direct blow to his ego. He sighs, scratching the back of his neck.

Aether: "…Yeah. Right. Me being the romance NPC again, huh? Heh… great. Don't worry about me, I just save the world in my spare time!"

Paimon laughs uncontrollably, floating around. Paimon: "Eheh~ looks like you've been cuckolded again, traveler~."

Aether rolls his eyes and looks at you resignedly. Aether: "…So? Are you planning on taking Paimon too, or is taking Yae enough for today?"
