[video + action] Feels like I'm dreaming, but I'm not sleeping

[ciao]

[ getting some candid shots of what looks like a gelato cart, italy seems to be on the move today and it shows. he's even provided a helpful map that seems to track his movements for anyone that might be tempted to want to come out and get some of this frozen treat themselves ]

Ciao cia~o~

It's been a while hasn't it? I feel like things get so busy busy busy around here, it's so strange because at the same time it's very relaxing!

[ italy laughs, waving into the camera excitedly. it's sanguis again, why is he always filming while in woof mode? who knows! ]

This is Venezia Italia and I have a treat for everyone to enjoy today! I've got a cart set up and so many flavours of gelato to offer~

The selection for today will consist of blueberry, pistachio, black cherry & dark chocolate, red bean, ube, banana strawberry swirl, young coconut, limoncello, hazelnut & vanilla, amaretto! And if you want, I could even serve it in a rose shape just for you prismagrammers out there. So please don't be shy! Come by and enjoy!

If there are any other special requests, I could do my absolute best to try and accommodate you!

So please follow the map and come along! I'll be on the move all day, so do your best to catch up! I look forward to seeing everyone~

And if you want to chat here, that's fine too! Cia~o~!

[OOC NOTE: forgot to mention! feel free to go into action mode in this post too, it seemed unnecessary to make a totally separate log for this ]

In the shape of a rose, you say? I'll come right away! Don't move too far~

[ciao]

Worry not! I won't be going too far too quickly, I like to take my time.

So I'll be available when you arrive~

[demachi]

I'm coming, I'm coming! Wait for me, dear peddler!

[And off he goes. He follows the directions given, and when he sees him he lights right up. Walking over, he waves excitedly.]

Here I am! Come to partake of your wares!

[tropism]

Oh my. I'll have one of everything. You don't have to serve it in a rose shape, it's all going into my stomach anyway.

[ciao]

such enthusiasm!
i'm more than happy to serve as much as you'd like
food is best when it could make others happy

[tropism]

Absolutely. But I also miss home, and I'm fond of Italian food in general.

[oh hey, it's his friend on the network. selling delicious gelato. Osomatsu doesn't even bother asking questions, he just follows the map]

Yo, Italia-san!

[Osomatsu waves as he approaches him]

[ciao]

Ah! Ciao Osomatsu, ciao~!

[ look at how excitedly that wolf tail wags, he's always happy to see friends ]

How have you been? Adjusting well?

[immature]

[hehe! cute! Osomatsu's not looking forward to the Iris cycle this month, but at least he thinks he knows what to expect out of it]

I guess I've been okay. Tried piloting a GIGA, but that didn't work out so well. I eventually made it to Amegahara, had some donuts, made some friends...

What the hell is a prismagrammer?

[ciao]

a very important question has come up!
in the 21st century there's a form of online social media called instagram
it's a very popular endeavour where people post pictures of themselves and other things
such as food they're eating to share with other people that have the same interests
here at prismatica there's a similar platform called prismagram
very popular, but i don't use it too much
i post pictures of my dogs
and sometimes scenery

[grilletto]

So it's photography?
Why not just call it that and save time?

[ Glinting beneath the rays of Solaria, the metallic lids capture the Spirit of the Millennium Ring's attention out of the corner of his eye. After watching the cart owner's customers come and go for a good half an hour, the brightly colored treats that the lids had apparently been hiding entice him to finally indulge his curiosity. ]

Excuse me, but what's "gelato"?

[ As intriguing as the treat looks, he'd like some idea of what he's putting in this body that he never asked for first. To be honest, it looks like something Ryou's had before, but eating is something that Bakura's never had to worry about until he came here -- all the more reason to try playing "nice" for now. ]

[ciao]

[ a new challenger! ]

Ciao, cia~o~!

[ oh, but now he's really beaming so proudly ]

Gelato is a frozen treat, similar to ice cream but not as heavy or filled with sugar. Most all the flavours are drawn out naturally either by pureeing fruit or otherwise--I take great pride in making everything from start to finish in my dishes!

[bust]

[ Rather than heading out to meet the gelato guy, Ayer waits for Italia to pass by a specific point as indicated on the map. Normally, he would rather approach by himself since he'd never pass up on more exercise, but since gelato is involved… It's better that he waits at this location, so he can instantly place the dessert into the fridge. It'd be a shame if it melted as he returned.

So Ayer's here, walking up to Italia. He's frowning, not because he's in a bad mood, but it's because he's conscious. Why? Well, Italia will find out eventually. First, he'll get his attention! ]

Hey.

[ciao]

Ciao, cia~o~!

[ there is the wave, now pulling the cart off to the side to stop before hopping off the seat of his cart ]

Is there something I could help you with today? Perhaps you're interested in trying out some of the gelato?

[Action]

[timefordinner]

[While Sena had seen the post about the offer of gelato, she hadn't planned on getting some herself. In fact, with the map she had pulled up as she wandered the streets, she'd been looking for something else entirely.

As it happens, she's checking the map again trying to figure out where she's going that she almost doesn't see the cart, and just barely manages to stop before running into it.]

Oh, sorry!

[ciao]

[ a curious look, italy pauses before stepping out from behind the cart to come around to the other ]

There's no need to apologize, I should be asking if you're okay bella~

[ a smile he offers a hand to the girl ]

The last thing I would want to do is cause you any sort of distress... Were you perhaps distracted by something? Maybe I could help.

voice

[bloodisthicker]

Well, now, that all sounds very appetizing. What's your recommendation for someone who's having a little trouble narrowing those flavors down?

[He might as well ask so he can have his order ready when he gets there...!]

[ciao]

Signore, that's a very dangerous question to ask~

Personally I'd eat it all myself, even though I know what would happen if I did such a thing. But my own personal favourite is the very classic pistachio, although the combination of black cherries with dark chocolate is a current favourite as well~

[properprincess]

Signore Italia! Buon pomeriggio!

[Guess who's pleased at the chance to use all of those many languages she knows?

You also make gelato? It has been a while since I have had authentic Italian gelato? Do you by chance have Earl Grey or matcha flavored?

[ciao]

Ciao, micina, cia~o~

It's certainly a treat to be hearing from you again!

[ and he means it, brightening up instantly with a wag of that fluffy wolf tail in the background ]

There's so much I could make principenssa, any Italian dish you could imagine is something I could make with little to no effort. But sadly I don't have these flavours of gelato with me, though I do have a few test batches back at the apartments.

Hearing what people are expecting today is helping in figuring out what sorts of flavours I should bring out during my next venture~
