And what about everyone else? [He's just trying to understand here, even if he's not saying no. He means, what about everyone else who could use the protection?]
Okay maybe not all of them. But like...I figured you'd want to protect one of the others, at least. [...wait does North even have anyone on the living side she likes enough to do that for?]
[There's a huff.] Fine. One task, one talisman. But don't get mad if it's not an easy task. [He assesses her for a moment...]
Express your gratitude and compliment three people whom you do not have a very close relationship with. And you've gotta be sincere about it, you can't just say you like someone because they aren't annoying. There are still enough of you left that you should know everyone, but still not be best friends with them.
--wait what did Axel say? [HEY!!! But he lets his cat crawl up to his shoulder and folds his arms over his chest.] Lune and I can't count, first of all. Or people like Emma that you've covered for in the past or you've shared really important things with.
[Wednesday is purring in his ear and he doesn't even mind.] ...seriously? [What a butthead.] Whatever, don't listen to him about that.
I can't tell you who would count, but just those who wouldn't. From there, you can kind of figure who would work best for you. [Though yeah, probably.]

And then, barely under her breath:]
Lea is such a liar.
["Sol's tasks are easier." SURE THING, LEESABELLA.]
Fine. Who do you consider to be "close" to me?
[She doesn't feel particularly close to anyone, but she might as well clarify...?]

[It's fine? It's fine. She crosses her arms, watching the cat crawl up to his shoulder. Also-- hilariously mirrors him without realizing.]
So... Milla and Ookurikara would count, right? What about Lea himself? Or is using him for another task a nonstarter?

[Time to gently yeet herself at those two to start, though. This is fine.]
I assume the dead don't count, either.
