Ambriel, quite quickly, remembers why she opted to be a sniper and nothing else. She takes a step back upon being shown her saw.
``It's-uh.``
Clearing her throat.
``It's really...pretty..?`` π§
``Mm, not at all! Candy's candy, even if it were made with real urchins.``
Maybe an overshoot, Ambriel's never had urchin.
``Still, I'm really happy you went out of the way to pick this up for me, hehe~. I really owe you one.``
Giving Ambriel the bashful smile, the Cautus cooed.
"This mochi in particular reminded me of sea urchins. The color fits! I was quite surprised when it turned out to be passion fruit!"
She chuckled.
"I hope I haven't made you regret eating this now!"
Ambriel blinked, unsure of the flavor at first, but it all came together once the aftertaste hit. She's no high-ranking food critic, but this is nice! The texture's pleasant, too.
``Mmgh, you're right, this one's really nice...``
Quickly finishing up, and swallowing.
The mochi that Kroos was so fond of, was Maracuja flavored. It was a tad sour but had a sweet aftertaste! It was crunchy too due to the few seeds in it, so there was an interesting texture too.
"I'll wait for you to finish the mochi, before I comment my thoughts on this one!"
``Mm? Hey, that's something I can get behind!``
Surprisingly not minding the licks. Ambriel got closer, wrapping her arms around Jessika.
``You know where the nearest couch is..?``
``Hmm? Like what..?``
<-- Her main hobbies are snacking and sleeping. Speaking of. She leans in a bit closer, before using Jessika as her own personal support with one arm, the other continuing to pet her, but a bit slower now.
``...Knew it, you looked super fluffy...``
``Well, certainly can't say no to snacks I don't have to pay for...``
She'll figure out something to gift to Kroos eventually. It'd be rude not to... Regardless, she took another one of the purple mochi as Kroos mentioned it.
``Haa? Never had this one.``
Taking a bite... Nom.
"Then I'll gift you a few tasty treats every now and then, when I find them~"
Seems like pranks weren't Kroos' only way to express her joy with others!
"Oh, thank you! This one here~", she took a purple mochi with yellow ice cream filling, "is really good~"
``Baizao, huh..? Fine, fine.~ I guess I'm just surprised, I don't really get gifts often, hehe.~``
Idly chewing on the mochi, though, still offering it to Kroos.
``Well, the least I can do is share. Stuff tastes twice as good when you share it, they say...``
"Hehehe", she proudly puffed her chest seeing Ambriel's reaction to the Sankta Mochi.
"I happened to visit Baizao, which is where I spotted these! They made me think of you~"
Smiling and with fluttering ears, she continued.
"Why not? You know I love to make people smile~"
Ambriel's eyes widened a little at the sweets.
``Woah..?! You shouldn't have!``
Despite that, she happily acquires the mochi, wasting no time putting one into her mouth. Yum~.
``Where'd you even get something like this? I haven't seen these since Laterano...``
Kroos hummed and her tail wagged, when Ambriel wrapped one arm around her.
"Hehehe, what a warm greeting! Oh, Speaking of warm!"
She had her hands behind the back, now revealing the surprise!
"Ta-da!"
It was an assortment of ice cream mochi, but shaped as Sankta beans!
