A prayer for business!
Who: Nanako, Sumio, Souji, Homura
What: Tiny's First Prayer Adventure!
When: June 23
Where: The Near Shore
A prayer for business:
No one's stopped by my store in weeks! If I don't get more customers soon, I'm going to have to close down.
[ While she might not have discovered her god powers yet, Nanako has at least spent a lot of time practicing her teleportation skills of late while exploring her way around the Far Shore. Coming to the place where all the mortals were still alive and busy was another thing, however, and somewhere she was still too nervous to venture to on her own. Especially considering the events that had occurred just after her arrival here. So when she received a Prayer that required her presence here, she'd turned to her big brother for help.
Which was how she ended up on a quiet sidewalk, gripping Souji's hand tightly and flanked by both Sumio and Homura. The place where they were to answer the Prayer was a small Pet Shop that looked like it had seen some better days, but was still brightly and colorfully decorated to draw the eye of passing shoppers. The display window held three puppies who rolled around and played while a fourth napped in the sun, and in the shop behind them could be seen a myriad of other animals all waiting to be taken home by someone. An older man in an apron - the owner, by all appearances - was tending to an aquarium, cleaning it and tending to the brightly colored fish within.
Nanako took it all in with wide eyes, looking both delighted and uncertain, before glancing up at her big brother. ]
Do you think this is the right place?

Yata, on the other hand]All kinds! They have puppies and kitties. And there are birds and some bunnies and lots of fish! There's even a turtle!
no subject
Certainly sounds like a lot of options. [An idea and he looks at her.] Let's say I was to get a pet, what would you recommend?
[He. May be teasing a bit.]
no subject
Weeeeell... You work a lot, right? So you want a pet that won't be a lot of work. And your bar is really clean and shiny so you'd want something that doesn't make a mess, too. A bird might be nice, some of them sing really pretty. Or maybe you could get an aquarium for in your bar. I've seen restaurants that have those before, and they're real easy to take care of!
But. [ She pauses and leans closer to whisper conspiratorily. ] The bunnies are also really soft and quiet and they don't make much of a mess. And the ones at the pet shop are really good for cuddling when you're sad.
no subject
[As she leans closer, so does he, mostly to play along. Izumo holds back a laugh.]
Bunnies. [He smiles, amused.] I guess a person does need a cuddle buddy every now and then.
no subject
[ But she can't help but grin when he smiles, happy he's playing along. ] Yeah! I think so. Maybe that's what your god needs? [ He had seemed sorta grumpy... ]
no subject
[That. That gets Izumo to laugh.]
Ah, you think my god needs a bunny?
no subject
Well, he should cuddle something!
no subject
A bunny might not cut out for him. Maybe a plush toy would work just as well.

[ Because nothing could possibly be strange about you gifting your god with a stuffed bunny to cuddle, right? ]
no subject
[He just has to make sure Mikoto doesn't look at it like it's food.]
no subject
But if you want some fish for your bar, I think they'd be pretty there. I could come and help you feed them sometimes, if you needed help taking care of them!
no subject
I'll keep that in mind, but thank you, Nanako.
