It's often said that chatting with a pretty girl is always a delightful affair, but I desperately need to know who came up with that so I can challenge them to a duel right now.
Why don't you try chatting with Fina for a while?
The difficulty of communicating with a girl who is as expressionless as an automated answering machine is no less challenging than operating a bare machine; you can never discern her current emotions, nor can you tell whether she's interested in the topic at hand, let alone be sure if she even enjoys talking to you. She responds to every question with perpetually calm, short phrases, mostly just simple "yes" or "no" answers, a habit she developed while serving as a decision-making machine, but it made me feel strangely embarrassed...
It felt like she was always impatient.
Even though I knew Fina didn't mean it that way, her demeanor made it too easy to wonder, "Do I annoy her? Is she getting impatient with me?"
