Twinkle! Christmas Market! - 3

[furins]

Male Customer: I found this lying nearby, but...

Sakura: Is this a... stuffed animal? Are they sellin' stuff like this here?

Tsubaki: Nope.

Sakura: Then maybe it fell off another stall's shelf.

Tsubaki: ... No, I don't think that's right either.

Sakura: Eh?

Tsubaki: Look, there's no tag or price on it. It's definitely not for sale.

It's likely that someone dropped their handmade stuffed animal, don't you think?

Sakura: This is handmade...?

Tsubaki: If that's true, it's quite detailed.

Anyway, I'll go get in touch with the event staff.

Sakura... The owner of the stuffed animal might still be nearby, so please display it somewhere conspicuous!

Sakura: ... Hah!?

Tsubaki: I'm counting on you~.

Sakura: Hey! Wait a second!

......

... Guess I got no choice.

<Fade out, fade in>

Female Customer A: Ah, look! That stuffed animal's so cute~!

Female Customer B: You're right! Super cute~!

Sakura: ......!

Child: Mama! I want the stuffed animal that he has!

Mother A: Just one moment, okay? ... Excuse me, is that stuffed animal an item for sale?

Sakura: I-It's someone's missing belonging, so...

Mother A: Ah! So that's what it is. I apologize for the misunderstanding.

Sakura: ......

(Tsubaki, hurry up and come back...!)

Delicate-Looking Delinquent: ......

Hey, that stuffed animal.

Sakura: I already said, it's a missing belonging.

Delicate-Looking Delinquent: Why're you carryin' it?

Sakura: Eh? 'S this your missing stuffed animal, maybe?

Delicate-Looking Delinquent: ......!? N-No, it's not.

Sakura: Then d'ya know whose it is?

Delicate-Looking Delinquent: Hell if I know. That's nobody's belonging!

Sakura: ... Hah?

Delicate-Looking Delinquent: That stuffed animal's no better than trash now! Just throw it out already!

Sakura: Ah? What're you sayin' all of a sudden?

Delicate-Looking Delinquent: If ya don't hand it over, I'll take it by force...!



Sakura: Well... I don't really get it, but if that's what you're gonna do... Fine. I'll take you on.
