[multifacets]

Oh, good! [It feels good, getting out again and meeting up with some old friends.]

So where’s this café? What’s your favorite thing there?

[saving_sound]

[She begins to walk.]

It's really close by - it's in this district, actually! They have all kinds of different teas and coffee... It's still hard to believe how many there are!

I usually just get black tea, but the kind they have is the best I've ever tasted!

[multifacets]

If it's that good, I'll have to try it.

[Rise keeps to her side as they walk along.]

Do you think they have any rice based snacks? I miss the ones we had at home.

[saving_sound]

Rice-based?

[She thinks about it for a minute before hesitantly shaking her head.]

I don't think so... But if you want, we can try to find a different one that does?

[multifacets]

Nah, it's okay! I'll just have to go looking later. There's so many shops here, one of them has to have it, right?

I mean, they even made a bunch of food from other worlds for the festival last time!

[saving_sound]

[She relaxes a little at that.]

They did, didn't they...? I even found baby cakes!

[multifacets]

Baby cakes...? What are those?

[That gets some really weird imagery in Rise's mind at first, but she's pretty sure that isn't right.]

[saving_sound]

They're little cakes, about this big.

[She cups her hands into the size of a donut hole.]

They used to sell them in stalls in my world, and I knew some people who really loved eating them!

[Given that Rise is from Japan, she might just recognize it as the popular festival snack baby castellas.]

[multifacets]

[When Hibiki tries to make the shape, Rise's first thought is takoyaki...but those aren't exactly cakes, are they?

Then it clicks. She snaps her fingers.]

Ah! You mean baby castellas?

[saving_sound]

[Ah--]

Baby castellas? Is that what you call them?

[multifacets]

Yep, that’s probably it!

They’re really sweet, and they always sell bigger versions of them in the bakeries, right?

[saving_sound]

[She tilts her head to the side wonderingly.]

I've never seen bigger ones in bakeries, but... They're definitely sweet!
