WHO: Ashura and whoever wants to jump in :3 [CLOSED]
WHERE: The Izumi Confectionery
WHEN: Early morning
WHAT: Entertaining customers
"Careful now." The child regarded Ashura with wide eyes as he handed her a plump, peach-shaped wagashi. He grinned down at her knowingly, and she returned the gesture twice as brightly. "Your brothers will surely be envious." And they were, for she had the biggest serving among all of the children there whose faces were nearly pressed onto the display glass, vying for the best slice of sugar their savings could afford. The complaints rose even more upon knowing that their doll-like sister was given hers for free.
"Onii-chan, that's not fair! I'm the eldest and I should have freebies, too!" "I'm the second and I'm the strongest!" "I'm the third and...I'm the funniest!"
Ashura laughed and leaned on his elbows over the counter. "And you three should be joining forces to give your sister everything. She's the youngest, and the Golden Rule of Siblings says that the youngest is to be spoiled at any cost!" Just like he did his younger brother. It was hardly fair sometimes, but that was how it had always been.
The children contemplated this for a serious moment while their sister happily nibbled on her treat, but before they could reach a conclusion, they were herded away by their parents profusely apologizing for having troublesome children. They were long gone before Ashura straightened up, something not quite but almost similar to nostalgia glazing over his eyes. New customers were arriving, and that thin film of remeniscience was gone as soon as it appeared.
"Good morning! How can the Izumi be of service?"
