"Is that how it is? I never knew that fairies were tied so tightly to children," Domeki tipped his head slightly at Bell. He was well aware that this was likely not the time nor the place to have a polite discussion but he had never really had the chance to sit and to speak with entities which he had only ever heard of in stories. Beyond that, it was a bit soothing to have someone with him in the situation who was as calm and collected as if they were sitting and talking in the middle of crowded cafe.
"Mm, Japan has all sorts of sweets," he nodded and tipped his head back. His eyes continued to move as he spoke, always looking for that one hint that would lead him to the answer of how to escape this room but he kept his tone natural all the same. "There are packaged ones - Pocky is a very popular example of that - but some of the best are what you can get from cake or other sweet shops. Cakes of all sorts, pastries, kakigori, manju, mizuame, karumetou - they're all very tasty. If you do manage to meet Watanuki and the idiot can find the ingredients, you should ask him to cook some for you - I think you'd like any of them."
"Giving into any strong emotion can cause a lot of trouble but it's likely better than the opposite," Domeki agreed with the slightest of shrugs. He wasn't really one to talk much on the value of displaying the various degrees of emotions since he hardly ever showed his own in any real fashion. "I don't think that your having gone peculiar would be what caused this, though - I've gotten the impression that whoever is doing this can and will take anyone they want at any time regardless of where they are or who they're with."
"It's good to have you with me, too, Bell. It's always nice to have a cheerful companion in times like this." He offered her a slight smile and this turned into a light laugh when she poked him gently on the shoulder. "You're likely right - there has to be a way out if there was a way in. We just have to work together and find--"
His words cut off rather suddenly as the low sound of stone groaning against stone filled the air. Domeki felt his head whip around to glance suspiciously at the wall nearest to him and he held out his arm so that he could press a hand against it - not in an attempt to hold back the wall, of course, but in an attempt to see if he could feel any movement.
