In that case, there's only one proper thing to do. After reaching into his coat, Howl drops a fist-sized, half-full coin purse onto the table in front of her. And before she can object, the wizard flashes a wide grin and lowers himself to the ground on the other side of the table, his heeled boots clacking softly on the stone street. ]
Never let it be said that Mother Yima and her followers care not for everyone, including those who reject her way. I'll look forward to seeing whatever eyepatch you end up deciding on, Miss Hayame.
[ Howl fully expects her to refuse his charity, but he's already prepared for that, and eyes her hands closely. If she were to throw the purse back at him, it will pass through his body completely, like phasing through a hologram. ]
