はらぺこふたりのゆくさきは

[twomeals]

Wow, there's so much food I've never seen before!

Of course, this is what festivals are all about. Aah, the stinkin' humans' food smells as delicious as ever!

Hey hey Yue, whadda we eat first? Whadda we eat first?

.......Kurogitsune, you might not like humans, but you sure do like their food.

'cos humans smell bad, y'know~ But their food is delicious. That I'll admit.

Hmm...smells, huh. I don't really understand, myself...

'course you don't, you can't even dream of beating my sense of smell! Shiiit these are great smells, yakisoba ikayaki chocobanana okonomiyaki...

Alright, I'm glad they're such good smells.

But there's so many it's hard to choose. Which one's best, Kurogitsune?

Idiot, there's too many things I wanna eat for me to choose that fast! But we've got a limit to our money, so we gotta choose wisely.

Ah, I'm thinking that over there. That fluffy sweet stuff.

Fluffy...you mean cotton candy?

That's right, cotton candy. Doesn't it look sweet and tasty?

Weeellll, it's not like it's awful. But starting off with that is kinda... It doesn't really have much of a punch to it...

Miko-sama told me before that it tastes really good. ...Since we came all this way, I kind of want to try it.

I mean, I'm sure that stuff's great and all, but let's get something more hot 'n' juicy first! When it comes to festivals, you gotta try That!

By That, you mean...

Takoyaki obviously! Come on Yue, I'm tellin' you takoyaki's great!!!

Ehh? Is tako really okay? After saying you couldn't choose, you're really going to go with that? Don't you eat it all the time?

It's fine ain't it, the money's mine! Takoyakitakoyakii! Ta-Ko-Is-Great!!! Those tiny round things with hot juicy stuff inside, so hot you'll almost spit them out on reflex, the taste'll give you a thrill!

.......I wonder what I should do...

.......I want to try cotton candy...

Uugh...t-tako...

It's fluffy and sweet and incredibly delicious; Miko-sama told me so.

I've always wanted to try it once...dreamlike, delicious fluff...

Ooohh...tako........................Dammit!

I got it, if you want it so bad then you'll be happy if you eat some, right! Tch, there's no helping it!

...Are you sure?

You came all the way out here, so you should eat whatever you want most. That's what festivals're about!

.......Hehe, thank you, Kurogitsune.

No need t'thank me - we came for you, there'd be no point if you don't get to eat what you want. Look, just go an' buy it!

Okay. ...Well then.



Hey hey, cotton candy, delicious fluffy cotton candy here~

Excuse me, I'd like one please...

Alright, that'll be 500 yen. Take whichever one you want.

Five hundred yen...um, is that in here?

Hm? These are all 5 yen coins......one, two, three...hmm, there's not enough here, kid.

Uh-oh, he says it's not enough, Kurogitsune.

S-seriously!? ...Damn, it's because I haven't gathered much recently...!

What should I do? The dreamy fluff...

There's no two ways about it, it's not enough so there's nothing to be done!...Dammit, this can't be happening...!

Hmm, well you came all the way out here for this, an' all. Alright, I'll take what you got.

...Eh...

.....There we go. Here, it's a little small, but I can let you have this.

So small...! But it's cotton candy...!

.......Is it really okay?

It's how much you paid for. Make sure you bring enough next time, kid.

...Thank you very much. Hehe, I bought it, Kurogitsune.

But it really is tiny...well, I guess that much should be fine. Let's go over there to eat.

Okay.



It really is all fluffy~ But I didn't think it would be warm.

It's best when it's fresh-made. Now why don'cha try eatin' it?

Okay........

How is it? Gimme your thoughts on this dreamy fluffy stuff.

It doesn't taste very fluffy at all. It's more like...it's kind of hairy...

Well, no matter how fluffy it might look it's still a lump of sugar in the end.

I like how sweet it is though. You should try it too, Kurogitsune.

Right ....*chomp*... Mm, I don't dislike it, but a little bit is really enough, with this stuff...

Kurogitsune, I thought you liked sweet things...isn't this sweet?

Yeah, but this isn't filling at all. But hey, don't tell the master that you ate this stuff.

Eh? Miko-sama?...Why not?

'cause then they'd find out you snuck off the mountain for the festival! If you let the master know, it's the same as ratting us out to Sato-sama! We'll get in huge trouble...!

Ohh, it'll be fine, maybe even if I say it.

Huh!? How's that?

I'll say I ate it in a dream.

.....................You...well the master might actually believe that, being her...

I'll tell her it really was as sweet and fluffy as a dream. ....Well, it's tastier in real life, though.

Ain't it obvious, if you eat something in a dream then when you wake up you'll only feel disappointed!

Well whatever, as long as you're happy then let's go see the next thing, next!

.......It's true, eating something in real life really is tastier.
