What's the deal with tomatoes. They're just messy fruit full of water.

You think I'd resort to taking discounts, five-fingered or otherwise? That almost sounds like you're calling me a cheap date.

[bolderfell]

Oh, so it'd be a date. I've heard of those.

[HMMmmmMMmmMMMmmmmmMMmmMmmm.]

Where would we be going?

[roseblooms]

It's also something of a flippant expression, but if you'd like to consider it one, we certainly can.

An Amegaharan street vendor. There are a few moving into the city, ever since the highway opened up.

[bolderfell]

I'll consider considering it. Maybe. Is it

[Scroll scroll scroll.]

'Japanese' food? Your favorite.

[roseblooms]

Yes, that's right. It's a type of food often left at shrines as an offering to appease spirit foxes. Inarizushi.

[bolderfell]

Cute. Sure, I'll try it. Just don't ask me to try to say it.

"I" like the "i" sound in "Therion".
"na" like the first sound in "knocked"; the emphasis is on this syllable.
"ri", like the last sound in "sorry".

I-na-ri.

"Zu" is soft in the mouth and sounds like the woman's name, "Sue".
"Shi" is like the word "she".

Zu-shi.

I-na-ri-zu-shi.

[bolderfell]

Uh-huh. Bless you.

[roseblooms]

I strongly suggest you practice in advance. You won't get any if you can't ask for it properly.

[bolderfell]

That sounds like a different kind of challenge.
