1 | Soggy Catboy Cuddles | Yoshiwara [It's late at night when Ranpo goes to knock on the bedroom door of someone whose bedroom isn't leaking. And while they may find it frustrating being woken up, the sight is surely a sad one. Even now, Ranpo still hasn't been able to be healed from last month, so his arm is still in a cast, his ribs are still sore, and now-- he's soaking wet from head to toe, his permanent cat tail hanging low to the ground behind him.]
Can I stay here tonight? A big leak opened up while I was sleeping, and my bed is soaked.
2 | Wish Upon A Bamboo | Nihonbashi [As Ranpo holds a pen in hand to write his own wish, he's not sure what to put down. Not just because he's aware that wishes have a tendency to come true here when made by refugees -- but because he's not sure what he might want right now.]
[He's not unaware that's he's been feeling lonely more often than not. He has plenty of friends, yes-- but he keeps losing them, too. And not even being able to say goodbye was harder than he thought it'd be.]
[Which is why ultimately he writes down a wish to make more friends -- and tries to hang it quickly before before anyone sees him doing it, because that's a little embarrassing, honestly??]
3 | Flower Challenge | Tama Beach [His mood is cheerier when he hits the beach, dressed up in a blue kimono with a subtle cat-paw as he goes through and tries just about every food this festival has to offer. And then maybe trying everything a second time for good measure.]
[Eventually he finds himself in a circle of adults playing with the flower fireworks, who've added a rule that you have to take a sip of an alcoholic drink for every lost petal. He's a little tipsy by the time someone else's firework goes out, and he grins over at them.]
Gee, looks like it's your turn for an embarrassing story!
4 | Cat Romance | Tama Beach [At the end of the night, Ranpo can be found crouched down at the water's edge, watching the little bamboo boats as they drift out into the sea, the burning lights flickering out. There's a smile on his face as he watches, and then, as he turns and looks up at the person watching them with him. With only the dim festival lights behind them, the array of tiny candle lights cause his green eyes to seemingly sparkle.]
It's really pretty, isn't it?
5 | Wildcard [Ranpo can also be found relaxing on the beach, wadding in the water up to his knees, getting a little drunk at a specific stall with seating, and watching the emperor's ship go by.]
