[ Accusatory or not, the fact that this... girl... giant squirrel girl(???) is pointing at her rather loudly, is just making Yayoi shrink back defensively on her bench. ]

I-I don't know if oomph would help, either--!

[acornbatic]

[Aw, man. Seems like the poor thing needs a little more encouragement, and Makoto is more than willing to provide it. Ignoring the fact she's actually the source of the girl's distress, the beastkin picks the nuts up from the ground and turns to give Yayoi a reassuring grin.]

Just leave it to me!

[Seeing is believing, after all. Contrary to her loud entry, Makoto is quiet on her feet, moving quickly but cautiously, careful not to startle the squirrels this time. Once she reaches the tree, she squats down, offering the animals the nuts in her hand. The squirrels approach slowly, their curiosity finally triumphing over fear, and snatch the food from the girl.

It's unclear which part of this spectacle was the aforementioned ooomph, but hey, it worked, right?]

[thunderp]

[ ... How--

Okay, maybe it's because this girl really seems to resemble a squirrel and they're coming to think of her as one of their own, but Yayoi is still going slackjawed as she stares.

This is kind of an unusual scene, overall. ]

[After the rodent gets its meal, it runs back to the tree and Makoto retreats slowly but skillfully. Once she's back at Yayoi's side, she grins at the sight of the girl's shocked expression.]

See? Piece of cake! Squirrels aren't as cowardly as people say, you know.

[She pumps her fist in the air, striking a pose proudly. Aside from the supposed courage, there's also the fact squirrels like free food, which is a trait Makoto shares with her little cousins, but details. She's trying to look cool here.]

Wanna try yourself?

[thunderp]

I... [ Well, she's not even remotely squirrel (that will be another Yellow Cure, really) but maybe if she's slow and cautious, she might have better luck. So Yayoi takes a deep breath and nods. ]

I'll... I'll try--!

[acornbatic]

That's the spirit!

[Figuring the girl could still use a little push, Makoto decides to pat her on the back, probably making the push more literal than necessary.]

I know you can do it. Believe in me who believes in you!
