"I'm telling you now, but a discussion really is all it'll be, understood?" With that said, she steps out from under the staircase, waiting for Mari to join her before heading towards the exit. As luck would have it, not thirty seconds later do the rest of Aqours follow suit, and Dia breathes out an internal sigh of relief at having rejected the love-umbrella.

"Ah, Mari-san, Dia-san! Looks like the two of you made up, huh?" Chika comes chittering up to them, and Dia rushes to respond before Mari gets the chance to.

"Not yet," she states with an authoritative pound of her umbrella's botton end against the floor. "I'm just about to accompany her home, in fact, so I can thoroughly explain the faults in her behavior."

While it's difficult to determine the extent to which Chika has bought it, she's at the very least willing to accept the explanation without probing further. On the way out, Kanan shoots her an entertained smirk, alongside one pointedly-raised eyebrow.

Dia glowers.
