Panda
Everyone, are we ready? Now commencing the first phase of the Sirius Santa Claus Operation!
Panda
We'll begin tailing Oshizu-chan!
Kathrina
Haah. Hey, are you sure this method will work?
Kathrina
Rather than doing something roundabout like tailing her, why don't we just ask Shizuka directly?
Panda
No, no. Katorin doesn't understand the concept of a surprise~
Panda
Think about it carefully. Christmas is approaching, and the mood is building up.
Panda
What if we ask her what she wants at a time like this? What if she figures out "Oh, they're going to give me a present~"!
Panda
Listen!? Asking such a thing at this time of year is an extremely risky move!!!
Kathrina
Aren't you overthinking this a bit...?
Chisa
Yes, yes, Panda is right. A surprise should remain mysterious until the very end.
Kathrina
Haah...fine, I get it. But why are you wearing fox ears on your head?
Chisa
Heh heh heh...it's for snow hiding. I'll hide in the snow near Shizuka like an Ezo red fox.
Kathrina
What's that supposed to be...
Shizuka
...
Panda
Ah, Oshizu-chan is here! Come on, Sassu, go!
Chisa
Roger! I'll report back to you two about Shizuka's movements, leave it to me!
Chisa
Shizuka was looking at a dog.
Panda
Pets seem difficult as presents...there's the issue of taking care of them, and we'd probably need Shamo-san's permission too.
Chisa
Now she's looking at a music store.
Kathrina
Musical instruments are probably too expensive.
Chisa
Ah!
Kathrina
What is it, Sasuga!
Chisa
The fish shop in front of the station, the goby looks fresh today...!
Panda
Sassu, what are you looking at!!!
Panda
In the end, Sassu lost sight of Oshizu-chan, so Katorin and I had to search for her ourselves...
Panda
I'm exhausted from running around...but we still can't find her...
Kathrina
Haah, haah, I-I knew tailing her was impossible...I'm tired...
Panda
...Ah! Wait, Katorin!
Kathrina
Haah...what now, just let me rest...
Panda
I found Oshizu-chan! That store over there! She's standing in the clothing section!
Kathrina
! You're right!
Kathrina
And she's smiling at the clothes...?
Kathrina
This means...!!!
Panda
Have we found what Oshizu-chan wants!? This is no time to be tired, Katorin!
Kathrina
Yes!! Let's make one more effort...wait a minute.
Kathrina
Hey, next to Shizuka...where's Sasuga?
Chisa
Ah, Panda~! Kathrina~! Yoohoo~!
Panda
Y-Yes, that's true. More importantly, isn't Oshizu-chan...looking this way?
Shizuka
So? What exactly are you two doing?
Kathrina and Panda
Eep...!
