"Battler, you missed your chance more than six years ago. After that, I was more in love with that idiotic 'prince on a white horse' line than anything else," Sayo deadpans. Being honest with one another meant giving him some, in her opinion deserved, ribbing when the opportunity made itself apparent.

Still, Sayo's subdued smile cracks into a grin as she reaches out, shakes Battler's hand, says, "Thank you, Battler," and...

In a single smooth motion, Sayo gets up, takes Battler's arm, pins it behind his back in an expertly-executed Cobra Kai style armbar, and whispers into his ear, "Oh, also. If you break Beato's heart again, I will strangle you with your own intestines and do things to your body that would make Bernkastel and Lambdadelta blush, and that's before deciding how to kill you. Have I made myself clear?"
