This is all I still strive for...But I just couldn't contain myself in front of someone like Suwako-sama. You're really famous in our circles, with the Mishaguji and everything.Appearing before you in this form makes me burn with shame...Why didn't you want Sanae to know?Oh...Failing to cross the Barrier... You really are hopeless, huh.I'd heard that a bakedanuki from Sado and some tsukumogami had succeeded in crossing over recently, so I got careless."Even if I must crawl, I'll come to your side, with my long body and my boundless heart"...
TN: A quote from the 12th-century tale 'Mushi mezuru himegimi"You could say I didn't want to bother a stranger on the road by making them listen to my grumbling, I guess...
