A Ray of Light in a Busy Life

Banquet Hall

Picora

*Siiiigh*

*Siiiiiigh*

You

You've been coming around a lot these days...

Picora

Hehehe... Well, visiting my Sensei is a disciple's greatest joy, you know?

You

What the heck is she thinking about right now?

Picora

*Sigh* I have so many things on my mind...

You

You do? Did something happen? Is someone bothering you?

Picora

No, nothing like that...

It's just... a disconnect between my ideals and my reality?

You

Sounds more like a gap between your bank account and reality.

Picora

*Gasp* How did you know?!

You

Well...

I can't exactly say, "Because I can see your Yearning."

And it's not like you're carrying rocks around in those shopping bags. It's obvious your desire is to shop.

Let's say it's a Sensei's deep insight into their disciple?

Picora

I knew it! Sensei, you're super amazing!

You

Well, what is it you want to buy?

Picora

It's not like talking about it will make it happen.

You

I'm just curious.

Picora

Oh, hehehe... In that case, I guess I have no choice! The items on my wish list are...

The new limited edition sticker-making kit, the fried carrot orange blusher, that roasted sweet potato-scented lotion, and also...

You

Picora fired off nearly ten items in rapid succession that almost made me lose consciousness.

But if her desire to shop is strong enough to manifest a Yearning, why hasn't she bought anything lately?

Are you in debt or something?

You

If we tell Snorky about it, she'll help you out, so be honest with me...

Did you lose money on some spinning top bet in the back alleys or something?

Picora

Geez, it's not like that!

I just... want to save money, that's all!

Do I look like someone who goes around getting into trouble?

You

Oh... I see... Okay...

Picora

You don't believe me?

You

No, no... I do. I believe you.

Picora

By the way, Sensei... Is there something you want?

You

Me? Hmm...

Since her Yearning is literally the desire to shop... Maybe we should just set a day aside to hit the stores together?

I'm not exactly sure, but I'd like to browse around and have a look!

Picora

Sorry? You'd like to go... shopping, Sensei?

You

Why are you looking at me like that?

Picora

No, it's just that last time you went shopping with me, you were bedridden for three days...

You

Figured I should build up some resistance with some lighter shopping trips.

Well, since we're on the subject, want to head to Monatium this weekend?

Picora

I-I'd totally love that!
