Umi #333: Halloween Memories
Player
Halloween is almost here. Is μ's going to have a Halloween live show?
Umi
Actually, Nico invited me to do a live show with her at a children's community center.
Player
Wow! That's great. A wonderful Halloween like that should make for an unforgettable memory for those kids.
Umi
An unforgettable memory…
Player
Umi?
Umi
Oh, I'm sorry! I was just remembering one of my own unforgettable Halloween memories.
Option 1: “Can I ask about it?” |
---|
Player Oh, gotcha. Can I ask about it? Umi What?! I-It's really not that worth talking about. |
Option 2: “Were you the target of a prank or something?” |
Player Did Honoka play some big prank on you or something? Umi *Chuckle* Is that what you think of Honoka? Well, you aren't wrong, necessarily. |
Umi
When we were little, Honoka, Kotori, and I decided to have our own Halloween party. We promised to do as much as we could ourselves and started preparing for it.
Player
Sounds like a lot of fun.
Umi
However, the baking part turned out to be our downfall.
Umi
At first, we were going to buy sweets. But we finished decorating and party game planning and that was all good, so we decided to try making them ourselves.
Umi
But that didn't go as smoothly at all. Thinking about it now, kids can make simple desserts like custard pudding and gelatin treats. But we got greedy…
Player
Okay, and what happened?
Umi
We tried our hand at a cake, but the thing we made was a black, charred mess.
Player
Whoa. B-But it's important to recognize all the effort you put in!
Umi
*Chuckle* I appreciate the thought. Nevertheless, this is still a very good memory of mine. I do think we could do a lot better now, though.
Player
So now you want to get some payback? Then why don't the three of you have another go at hosting a Halloween party?
Player
Oh wait, you can't. You're doing a Halloween live show. Hmm, then you can just try making sweets again.
Umi
Payback, huh? *Giggle* That might be a good idea.
Player
Show me photos of the great treats you make.
Umi
Well, how about I invite you when we make them?
Player
Huh?
Umi
I'm sure all three of us would be even more motivated if we were making treats for you. I can say that for sure about myself at least!
Player
I'm so happy to be invited. Of course I'll go!
Umi
*Giggle* That will be a great time to show you the power of our unity!
Umi
We'll do our best to make truly delightful treats! I hope you look forward to it!
