[ The colour choice of the ribbon isn't lost on her, and she finds herself a little surprised he remembered what she likes. But appreciative all the same.

Though the question he gives her in return makes her blink, head canting once more. ]

Hmm... I am, a bit. [ Her eyes drift to the flowers, as he ties that bow, before focusing on him once more. ]

Is there anything in particular you like, there? I would like to get something for you.

[cranekin]

Not far from here, there's a tea house.

(A cafe. He means a cafe.)

It serves something called coffee but also a "matcha latte macchato!" (Macchiato... he means macchiato.) I want to try it.

[crisantemo]

A... macchato? Alright. [ Is that a Neo-Tokyo thing? Maybe it's a Neo-Tokyo thing. ]

That's one part of one of my questions answered. [ So the next is - ] What sweets do you like? Or do you want to try?

[cranekin]

(Clearly, a matcha latte macchato must have like... twice the tea in one drink? And isn't that exciting?!)

Hmm... something that goes well with tea, I think.

(Which doesn't really narrow it down.)

Everything looked delicious when I walked by.

[crisantemo]

[ Does this man need more caffeine? Does he... ]

That goes well with tea... [ And if it's matcha... What would go well with matcha.

She is Seriously Considering this. ]

Then... Something with fruit, maybe. How about something with strawberries?

[cranekin]

I saw a strawberry cake with cream.

(A strawberry shortcake. Of course he'd be drawn to something like that.)

[crisantemo]

[ Tea and cake... Okay mission acquired. ]

Okay, I can go and - [ Pause. ]

Your shift doesn't end soon, right?

[cranekin]

...?

(He looks over at a clock and then back at her.

Friend, he doesn't know his work hours. He has never really had to work a real day in his life. He's just LARPing working for fun.)

Sure.

[crisantemo]

[ Tsuru truly the only man who would LARP work for fun.

But since he'll still be here for a while, that means she can go complete her mission. ]

Alright, I'll be back soon. [ Off she goes to acquire sweets!

Though there's a delay as "macchato" is brought up and the barista has no clue what she means, but eventually she acquires sweets. A cup containing a matcha latte macchiato and a cute little box containing some strawberry shortcake are soon being offered to him, once she comes back to the shop. ]

Here.
