Splitting Up
Iruru
Ooh, there sure are a lot of people here for a Sunday. It's been a while since I came to a zoo.
Nikako
I wonder what animals we should see first. Oh, I know! Let's go see the birds of paradise that are only at this zoo and the one in Fukuoka!
Hatsumi
Hold on. First, let's prioritise what Daikoku and Shigure want to see.
Iruru
You two have your reasons for coming here after all. Daikoku, Shigure. Have you decided what you want to see today?
Shigure
Let's see...Shigure was thinking of seeing hippos and flamingos.
Daikoku
For me, since I need to get used to them, I guess the petting area and feeding events.
Nikako
Looking at the map, the animals Da-chan and Shigure-chan want to see...a lot of them are in completely opposite areas.
Hatsumi
Then let's each go see the animals we want to see that are far away first. After that, we'll meet up and look around the nearby enclosures together.
Iruru
Sounds good. In that case, I'll go around with Shigure. We happen to want to see the same animals anyway.
Nikako
Then I'll go around with Da-chan! Let's do our best, Da-chan!
Daikoku
Y-Yeah......
Hatsumi
Then I shall as well. I will witness Daikoku's challenge.
Daikoku
My Lord...I'll do my best...!
Shigure
Then let's meet up later? Good luck overcoming your weakness, okay?
Daikoku
Mind your own business. I don't need you to tell me that!
Iruru
Hehe, see you later then.
Hatsumi
They're off. So then Daikoku, which enclosure are we going to first?
Daikoku
Let's see...well, let's start with the rabbits......
Iruru
Huh, so that's a porcupine. I think those quills are supposed to hurt a lot if they stick you?
Shigure
Still, it seems kinda spaced out.
Iruru
Ahaha, true. There aren't any natural predators in the zoo after all.
Iruru
Now it's the hippos. Looks like it feels good soaking in the water. So laid-back, I'm jealous.
Shigure
This one's spaced out too, zoos aren't very exciting, huh.
Shigure
...Wait, whoa!?
Iruru
Whoa, what a huge mouth! That startled you, huh Shigure~.
Shigure
Hey, that's embarrassing so stop it! Don't pet me!
Iruru
Ahaha, sorry sorry!
Shigure
Hm~, so flamingos are white when they're born. They turn pink later.
Iruru
The fact that their body color changes from their food is interesting, right. Kind of like how your hands turn yellow if you eat too many tangerines?
Shigure
I don't like comparing it to that......
Shigure
Ah, look at this! Iruru-senpai!
Shigure
The flamingos are making a heart!
Iruru
Ah, you're right. Two flamingos are putting their necks together to make a heart. I've never seen that before...lucky you, Shigure.
Shigure
Well, that's all the animals Shigure wanted to see for now? Should we meet up with Hatsumi-san and the others soon?
Iruru
Sounds good. Still, I wonder how Daikoku and them are doing right now? I hope she's managing to interact with the animals okay......
