Sometimes it'll be a local thing, or whenever there's an event. Of the traditional variety. But yeah, it's also usually a school thing too.

[ This news is surprising me greatly. ]

What're you thinking about, Tama?

[ballies]

I guess we just don’t see many of them in Tokyo — or rather we just didn’t have the time to go to them. Work is work, after all.

[ she’d wear a yukata and she’d be soooo cute.

anyway. ]

Give me your hand?

[unsync]

It's usually because we're too busy, yeah. They're not that uncommon. We don't go to Asakusa a lot, or if we do, it's on duty anyway.

[ Just gives her his hand w/e he's just used to giving Tama whatever she wants. ]

[ballies]

We should go, I want to see one for real. You have to try all the food and catch me a fish, okay?

[ a pet goldfish… they can call it something like boss the second.

anyway she’s carefully rolling a beaded bracelet over his lil thumb hole sweater sleeve. assuming he’s still in his default outfit. it has black and orange beads — some of the black ones are glittery!

yay! ]

[unsync]

Why a fish?

[ Sorry to say I have not seen a real goldfish scoop in years, granted understandable why. The last time I saw a goldfish scoop was when my Kyoto neighbourhood was still actually rural. Mr. Ryuki 'hasn't even seen a cassette tape in real life' Lastname.

Yeah he's in his default comfy outfit. ]

Oh, it's cute! Where'd you get this?

[ballies]

Isn’t that what people do at festivals? Wander around, eat candy floss or apples and get their date a fish from the scooping game?

[ she wants the full experience!!! ]

Oh. I made it at the craft shop the other day.

[unsync]

I thought it was for kids. Eating yatai food is definitely a quintessential festival thing though. And maybe some fireworks?

It looks good! Thanks, Tama.

[ballies]

I want a fish though! [ C’MOOOONNN ]

It was pretty fun to make actually. But if you break it there’ll be hell to pay.

[unsync]

B-but I don't know how to take care of one...

[ That's. Really the only thing stopping him honestly. ]

Okay, okay. I'll try not to.

[ballies]

It's not that difficult, is it? You need a tank, and some filters... and some aquatic plants... and then you feed them a couple of times a day. That's pretty easy, right?

[ she can google how to take care of a goldish when they get home ]

Good. I kinda sucked at it at first, but Hana helped me out. So... [ basically ] I worked really hard, okay?

[unsync]

That's a lot when I have a full-time job. What if something goes wrong while I'm in the office?

[ The stress!! He can't even keep a plant alive Tama!! ]

I know you did, Tama.

[ He has accepted this. ]

[ballies]

I’m pretty sure they just swim in circles for most of the day. They’re not like… a dog.

[ it’s fine!! it’s fine.

she’s going to Examine her handiwork. hehehe. ]

[unsync]

[ Just lets Tama do whatever she wants with his hand, this is fine. ]

Did you figure out how to make this yourself?

[ballies]

[ she worked hard…. let her observe what she has achieved. ]

I tried myself for a bit, but I ended up getting some help from Hana and Nimona in the end. They’re kinda fiddly to make, but fun too.

[unsync]

Do you have one?

[ballies]

No…?

[ well, not right now she doesn’t. albedo made her one later in the week. ]

[unsync]

Really? Why didn't you make one for yourself?

[ He is shocked she doesn't have one!! Wtf!! ]

[ballies]

This one took longer than I thought it would, honestly.

[ she wanted!! to make ryuki one!! ]

[unsync]

Should we get you one?

[ballies]

[ blink. ]

Oh, that’d be kinda fun. I ended up having a good time making it, so I wouldn’t might trying another.

[unsync]

Well... that's nice you had a good time.

[ He thinks this is mundane, but like, in a cute way. Is it because she had two friends there to do it with... he's so glad she's making friends.

To the Sew Crafty then before it becomes a murder site? ]

[ballies]

It was pretty fun. Did you try making anything?

[ we really had a cute place to make cute bracelets and then norma got shot at in there. damn.

but yeah, to the jewellery making tables before they become tainted with blood! yaaaaaay ]

[unsync]

I was showing Gold Mouse how to make origami yesterday...

[ That counts, right? Here we go back to their discount Michaels. He will look at the bracelets and beads section in general, glancing at Tama while trying to figure out colours. ]

[ballies]

Cute. How’d they do?

[ that counts. it’s not all bead bracelets and depression in heroes the game. sometimes it’s origami and depression! ]

[unsync]

Pretty good, since it was their first time.

[ Isn't that wild. Gold Mouse is his son, Tama.

Anyway how about this selection? ]
