[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 ]

Totally worth it! But, I mean, I really don't have the stomach for that. [he laughs] Maybe I'll just get three flavors for now. Then more later!

[ 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. ]

[ 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]

[ the voice had certainly sounded familiar, but once he sees the idol approaching there was total recognition. you see that wataru? excited wagging of a full and fluffy wolf tail ]

Benvenuto! It's been a while~!

[ pulling in close now, he gives the other a hug and kiss on each cheek before pulling back enough to flash a smile at him ]

It's been a while, I certainly do hope that you and Jeanne reconnected, yes?

[ciao]

Haha... yeah, it's probably best to be safe at first--which flavours are you most interested in trying first?

[demachi]

[He returns the kisses and hug, laughing happily.]

It has been! I could scarcely forget such a saintly visage!

[Wataru pulls a handkerchief out of an inside pocket, drapes it over one empty hand, then pulls it away to reveal a white dove.]

Meet my lovely Jeanne!

[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!

[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?

[immature]

[HMMM! he looks at the flavors]

Gotta try the red bean, of course... And then, maybe, blueberry and coconut! I dunno if those’ll all go together, but we’ll see.

[bust]

Not for me.

[ Now Ayer shows Italia a tin container, able to contain several tubs of gelato. It seems the reason for his embarrassment is that— ]

Don't talk to anyone about this! A, anyway… What do older girls normally order?

[ Yes, he's meaning to gift the container to someone. Or some people? There's a second tin. ]

For this other one, is there a flavor close to coffee?

[hauhra]

[ He's definitely become well-acquainted with ice cream thanks to his former host, though he imagines that gelato will sit better with this body than the former. While the Egyptian people have been fond of desserts for thousands of years, simpler ones more akin to what was made in ancient times are probably a wiser idea right now until he figures out what his body can and can't tolerate. ]

Is that right? It sounds a lot healthier than ice cream when you put it that way. Which flavors would you recommend? They all look pretty good, though pistachio or the black cherry & dark chocolate combinations seem the most appealing right now.

[ Eyebrow waggle -- free samples, maybe? He's a cheapskate. Spending Chroma means having to earn it back, so... ]

[ciao]

Oh, okay...

[ he really was just curiously looking into this tin container, the curious sway of the fluffy tail. he didn't understand the embarrassment, but it seemed inappropriate to ask didn't it? ]

How much older are we talking about? Like age range... I mean, limoncello is a very safe flavour to go with first and foremost. It also depends on the types of flavours they're drawn to.

[ oh look another tin...! ]

Ah... I knew I should've brought the espresso gelato with me... if you'd like, you could sample the amaretto as well as black cherry & dark chocolate to see if either of those are something you're looking for~

[grilletto]

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

[ciao]

[ does he have news for you, this dessert will definitely sit better than any ice cream will. ]

These two flavours are definitely my top favourites if I'm being completely honest, you might even enjoy the hazelnut and vanilla flavour as well--here, let me get you some samples!

[ there he goes, getting out the little plastic spoons and everything ]

Let's see, pistachio... black cherry... hazelnut... how do you feel about citrus? Limoncello is really good!

[ciao]

there's more on there than just photos
like there's video and animated gifs
makeup tutorials
five minute crafts that take more than... five minutes...

[ciao]

There's only one way to find out, here, let me get them for you!

[ look at this oso, you're getting your own little bowl with a scoop of each of these flavours ]

[grilletto]

You can't call it a five minute craft if it takes more than five minutes, that's stupid.

Are you sure you know what you're talking about?

[immature]

[fantastic! Osomatsu waits as patiently as he can, then thinks about something]

...Hey, did you make these yourself?

[ciao]

it's not me
i don't like five minute crafts
it's just a trend people are really into

trust me
not a lot of things make sense on the internet

[grilletto]

You mean stuff like people who think they're countries or something?

[ciao]

[ this is so touching... wataru is one of the few people that actually returns his greeting... this is his happiest day. ]

Ah, you're entirely too kind signore~!

[ oh, but the handkerchief. he watches curiously before--oh! OH! magic tricks! he's very impressed--but he won't clap, he doesn't want to startle her ]

She looks just as beautiful as I'd imagined... such a delicate darling, I could see why you were so worried over her~

[ciao]

informative video

[grilletto]

Yeah, sorry, it's gonna take more than a video to keep me from calling bullshit.

[ciao]

Of course! I make a lot of things myself--I even have a basket full of food on the back of the my seat of the cart.

[ offering up the gelato to the other he beams so proudly ]

I hope you enjoy it~

[ciao]

i'm not sure what kind of proof you're looking for
aside from living for over 2,000 years
i don't really have much else i could show you
