Don't let Rita hear that, she'll flip her lid. Probably.
"I'll be back soon!" Rita calls, waving back to the kids that have recognized something's going on with a smile as she walks away, back the way she came from. The trip isn't long, but it sure feels like it as she dodges a piece of a float that almost falls on her and runs away from a fight that very nearly pulls her in. But she makes it back to the stand, picking up a reasonably-sized bag and securing it to the side of her cloak so it doesn't melt. Now she just needs to make it back..,
...which would be fine, if a float hadn't collapsed and broken close to where she'd left Ebisu, leaving a pile of debris between her and him. It takes her quite a few hops, but she eventually ends up perched on top of it, looking down to see if he'd moved far from there. Hopefully not; this chocolate isn't going to stay pristine forever on a night like this.
