[Sandalphon switches sides in the booth, sliding in next to Izumi and reaching under his hat, behind his head, to gently scratch at the base of his ears.]

I'm not angry. If I were, I'd have just told you to get out because you didn't have any money. You're being careful, and...you should be allowed to do whatever you want, even if I'm not there.

[He pulls his hand back; too much tousling and the hat might come off and give Izumi away.]

So I can't be mad at you for wanting something that should be yours to begin with. I'd prefer that you sneak to places I am like this, so you have me as an excuse if you get caught, but...

[Sandalphon sighs, leaning back against the booth.]

...As long as I know where you are, and as long as you're careful...until you can go wherever you want by yourself, you've got my permission to leave the house.

[He'd hate to make Izumi feel trapped in his own home. He'd hate that more than anything.]
