Part 1Part 2

Customer	Thanks, I’ll come again.
Guy	Thank you for your visit.
	*shop bell sound*
Hisoka	I feel sleepy…
Guy	Ah, is it already this late?
	I was so absorbed in the conversation that I delayed the shop’s closing time. Excuse me for keeping you until late.
Hisoka	What did you talk about with them?
Guy	That person liked our hiiragi iwashi decorations displayed outside for Setsubun.
	They were impressed with the hiiragi iwashi that lit up in particular.
Hisoka	…The one with a sensor light.
Guy	Exactly. They suggested I search for decorations that fit the bar’s design.
Hisoka	I want squishy night lamps.
Guy	It might not be necessary for it to glow.
	I also thought about some items—
Hisoka	… (drowsy)
Guy	You must be at your limit, Mikage. Let’s save this conversation for a later time.
	In case you think about one, please let me know.
Hisoka	…Mhm.
Izumi	Good job, everyone. Are you going to do some sightseeing now?
Azuma	We came for a training camp, so I thought I’d buy souvenirs for those who stayed in the dorms.
	I can take my time to check them since I’m free at the moment.
Tasuku	The others will visit different places too. How about we get souvenirs for the rest of the winter troupe instead?
Izumi	Sounds good! They will be happy with them.
Hisoka	Zzz…
Tasuku	Hey, wake up.
Azuma	You should come with us, Hisoka.
Hisoka	…I want to sleep a bit longer.
Tasuku	Sorry, but no. You might sleep all day if we leave you here. You’ll help us search for souvenirs.
Azuma	Fufu. Then, we get going.
Izumi	Okay! Have fun!
Tasuku	Well then, what should we buy…?
Azuma	We could choose something practical or decorative for them.
Hisoka	Decorative…
	Ah, right. Guy wanted me to tell him if I found a decoration that fits his bar.
Azuma	What does he want it for?
Hisoka	I didn’t hear that.
Tasuku	So we are missing the crucial point.
Hisoka	He told me that because a customer asked about decorating the interior after seeing the hiiragi iwashi for Setsubun.
Tasuku	Ah, because of that? In that case, we can search for something to hang up on the walls.
Azuma	Then, let’s try going to a variety shop. We can think about it while looking around.
Hisoka	Mhm.
Azuma	This souvenir shop has lots of curries and teas, don’t you think?
Hisoka	This section has teas that go well in curry…
Tasuku	Director would like it.
Azuma	Fufu. Let’s tell her about it later.
Hisoka	…
	An ornament…?
	“You will find one to your liking. We have hundreds of flavors.”…

Azuma	What’s wrong, Hisoka?
Hisoka	What is this?
Azuma	Ah, that’s a shisha, also called hookah. It’s a type of tobacco.
Hisoka	Tobacco…
Azuma	Yes, there are different types of flavors to enjoy. From fruit flavors to drink flavors.
	There might be sweet flavors that you’d like.
Hisoka	Even marshmallows?
Azuma	I’m not sure about that… but you won’t be able to eat it since it’s smoke.
Hisoka	In that case, it’s better just to eat marshmallows.
Azuma	Fufu. Yes, it might be the best.
Tasuku	Did you find something to buy?
Azuma	I’m thinking of buying this tea.
	Homare might like it, and we can drink it together withTsumugi.
Tasuku	True, sounds good.
Hisoka	…!
	Darjeeling marshmallows…
Azuma	Oh dear, look what he found.
Tasuku	So there are marshmallows even in this place…
Hisoka	I’ll buy those.
	One, and two, and three, and four…
Tasuku	Hey, how many do you plan to buy? We still need to buy a souvenir and a decoration for Guy.
Hisoka	…I know.
Tasuku	If I’m not wrong, one that fits his bar.
Azuma	I wonder if there’s one.
Tasuku	Over there are small items with an oriental style.
Azuma	Those might look good as casual decorations on empty shelves or the counter.
Tasuku	Really? Would they…?
Hisoka	Why are you asking me?
Tasuku	Well, you work in the bar, Mikage. You should know which decoration is better for it.
Hisoka	Hmm…
	…This?
Tasuku	Is that a doorknob?
Azuma	Heh, there are plenty of different shapes and designs.
Tasuku	And unusual shapes too.
Hisoka	…Ah, right. The customer liked the glowing hiiragi iwashi. Now, I need the doorknob to glow.
Tasuku	What do you mean by that…?
Hisoka	They will like it if it glows inside and outside when they come again.
Tasuku	That’s not the issue here.
Azuma	Will you only buy that, Hisoka?
Hisoka	Mhm. I should check other shops for Guy’s souvenir.
Azuma	I agree, we still have time to search for it. It might be good to check different shops before choosing.
Tasuku	Wait, don’t tell me you’re really going to buy the doorknob.
Hisoka	…Just in case we don’t find anything else.
Azuma	Fufu. We better find one.
Hisoka	(I’ll eat my marshmallows once we get back to the room.)
