"No."

"But Ruki-cha-"

"No, mom. Especially not with him."

Ryou lifted both his hands in mock surrender. "I... had no idea what she was planning, I swear."

"Come now, Ruki!" Rumiko placed her hands on her daughter's shoulder, moving her forward, "Just go out with the nice boy! And wear that lovely new dress I bought especially for you!"

Ruki glowered, "There was no way that was a dress. More like a bunch of teddy bears and frills." She wiggled free from her mother's grasp. "I'm not staying around to suffer brain damage from you two. I'm leaving."

"But Ruki!"

Ruki walked away, returning to room where Renamon waited.
