"I don't always call them by their nicknames, you know," Shizuka pouted at the dirty-blonde-haired fox, earning a chuckle from his icy partner.
"Now that you point that out, I think master also didn't call us by our nicknames most of the time~" Fuyukiku laughed lightly at the girl's playful hits. "Oh, come on!!! Is it THAT bad for me not to call you by your nicknames?!"
"She also calls me 'Seimei-san' instead of a nickname, haha~" the former Keeper joined in as well, Avrean smirking while pinching her cheeks. "So, it's just me, princess~? How mean~"
"Master also calls us by our full names," Kurogane and Kyuusei chimed in as well, annoying the girl further.
