Everyone in this thread is going to pretend Elle didn't call Manabu's mom Yui, because it's Kanna. It's always been Kanna. Who the fuck is Yui. Yui's from Toward the Terra and he's a dude and he's fucking DEAD. Get the fuck out of here, Yui.
Anyway, Mako's ask gets another hissed shh from Manabu, but the timing is such that the water was turned off, so the woman could catch it.
"Hmn? Did you forget something in the--" Her call is cut off abruptly as she turns, the sight of the portal catching the corner of her eye and causing her to gasp, whirling around with big eyes. It's the abrasion in her home that's alarming first and foremost - seeing people on the other side comes second. Likewise, Manabu straightens up, likely knocking Mako in the chin from doing so.
"What is--" The woman's eyes widen. "Manabu?!"
"Uh-!!" He holds up his hands, shoulders shrugging up, and his voice cracks a bit with some alarm. "Yeah, I--wait, you can hear me? Mom, can you--you can see me?!"
Unseen, a dog starts to bark at the sound of the voice, and 'Mom' rounds her kitchen island to approach the portal with utter bewilderment and a little fear - but not enough that would keep her from investigating someone who may or may not be her baby boy. And some random man who is not her child.
