>"Huh? That? Oh, I've had that for as long as I can remember." Rumia replies, "Apparently it's a seal or something... I can't touch it."

//Screwing with boundaries for Rumia's ribbon might yield similar results to Koishi. I'm sure Maribel would be curious enough to try it, but also worried enough not to try it thanks to how Koishi reacted.

//Yeah, I know this qualifies as meta-gaming, but I'm really not interested in releasing the seal on a youkai that is many times stronger than we are.

>"Like, really, really hot." Rumia tries to touch the ribbon to demonstrate, only to quickly jerk her hand away in pain as soon as her finger makes contact. "Ow..."

//That's a (sort of trauma related) eye suddenly appearing on our hand again as well as almost taking Rumia's ribbon off without meaning to. This thing that only happened back at the start of the day iirc would be in the back of my head (next to worrying about our powers), especially after we decided not to worry about it yet and continue a bunch of other things, like helping Rengeteki, discussing with Rumia about her seal, and the music and the kidnappings.
