[She laughs weakly. Another scene starts playing out, though, and it grabs her attention pretty quickly. Though, she can't help but stiffen a little at the sight...
A woman, cold in demeanor, fixing her sharp gaze on both versions of Akira (both looking closer to how they did the April they arrived in Tokyo), who stand in front of her. The male Akira's doing his best to seem neutral (while not completely succeeding, he looks worried), while the female one is clearly worked up about something. A bag sits off to the side, halfway packed with some of the female Akira's belongings.
"Akira, I thought I told you that you'll be staying here."
"And I thought I told you that I wasn't accepting that! I'm not... I'm not leaving Ren in a huge city like Tokyo all by himself. No way, no how. Either you let me go with him, or I find a way to Tokyo all on my own!"
There's a tense staredown between mother and daughter, before the mother huffs and relents. "Fine. I'll call to make the arrangements. But if you get into trouble yourself..."
Akira's ignoring her now, though, having gone over to Ren to grasp his hands. "There, see? I told you I wasn't gonna let you face this alone! That's a big sister's promise~"
Ren quirks one eyebrow, amusement finally tugging at the ends of his mouth. "... you're only a few minutes older than me."
