Kisaki Valentine TL
With All Five Senses

You're with Kisaki in her room.

K: A fresh wind hath been blowing within Shanhaijing as of late.
K: As such, as the Head Priest, I too wish to partake in it. That is the source behind the tea ceremony you see before you.
S: So that's what you meant. Thank you.
K: Fufu, thou need not be so stern.
K: Now then, let us have a taste...
S: T-this is...?

K: Fufu, hast thou noticed?
K: I have concocted a special drink for today: Cacao nib tea.
K: Enjoy the tea's colour, inhale it's aroma, savour it's flavours.
K: Thou need not rush. Take your time and enjoy it.
S: Cacao nibs...?
K: They are made from dried cacao seeds and are said to be the origin of chocolate.
K: However, this tea lacks the chocolate's sweetness.
S: The bitterness and aroma are great...!
K: I predicted thou would have been weary of [sweets] by now.
K: I wished for thou to experience a slightly novel taste.
K: A [Tea ceremony] also includes the act of savouring tea with comrades. So let us continue...
S: In a quiet room, Kisaki and I drank Cacao nib tea.
S: My body felt relaxed while gaining a surge of energy...!
K: It steadies the body and invigorates it, does it not?
K: Indeed. It is said that the seeds of cacao plants can prevent heart diseases.
K: It also possesses slight anti-aging and weight loss effects.
S: It can do that!?/Another cup please!
K: Should thou ever set foot in Shanhaijing, I shalt lay all the tea thoust desire at your feet.
K: It would also be nice to send some tea to Schale.
K: Of course, I may also simply visit.
K: Does thou not wish to learn the art of the [tea ceremony]?
K: It is tea brewed from mine hands that pleases thou?
K: Sigh...
K: And therein lies that particular shortcoming of thou.
S: I-is that so?
K: Have you yet to comprehend it?
K: If you find the answer yet fleeting...
K: That is in itself a fatal flaw.
K: A sly Sensei like thou must be thoroughly castigated.
K: As for thoust penance...
K: Fumu... what about an [assault] on wherever Sensei is and causing him trouble?
S: Please be gentle...
K: Let us make this worthwhile...
K: For thou's true punishment...
K: Was but a jest.
K: Besides, for all of mine talk of your slyness, I myself am not above such tricks.
K: See, this tea..
K: Was brewed with some [mischief] in mind.
S: W-what!?/Thinking about it, I do smell a strong chocolate scent...
K: Fufu. Hast thou realised?
K: I made a request of the Alchemical Research Society and had a [trick] imbued into the tea.
K: The effects of cacao nibs...
K: Include the improvement of blood circulation, the relieving of fatigue, and much more..
K: But this time, I saw fit to add one more [effect].
K: Be not afraid.
K: It is not something to fear.
K: After all, this day is one for the sake of tasting chocolate.

Kisaki stands up and approaches

K: For you see...
K: This scent...
S: I-i know what it is, but...!
K: Well then, there's no need for hesistations.
K: Would you happen to know what day it is?
K: It is a day of which feelings towards loved ones are inscribed through chocolate.
K: Fufu... And this one has found her own way of presenting hers.

The rich chocolate aroma was so strong it made me weak at the knees, enveloping my whole body...!

K: Now then, Sensei.
K: With all Five Senses, savour this day with your body and soul.
