As Mizuko smiled at her customers and continued her preparation of the fried rice(it wouldn't be too long now!) she was really quite surprised to see the arrival of what was undeniably a nine-tailed fox. Another Akitsushiman native? She didn't think many from her home country were around here at all! It was almost shocking to see such a person stroll out of the unfamiliar crowds... But it was also rather nice. Still, a nine-tailed kitsune... her kind was rare even back home! "Ah... hello! it's nice to see someone from my homeland here ~[i]degeso[/i]! [i]Genki desu ka ~degeso[/i]?"

It was simply asking 'How are you?', of course. Mizuko would stick to this land's language for the most part.

However, she... had to address every customer. This was really kind of overwhelming! The man asked for two slices of bread, and, well... her free tentacles groped about for bread and quickly produced two loaves. "That will be one copper ea-Oh, the fish ~degeso!"

The fish hadn't needed much to perfectly cook. The fried rice was taking longer, likely because it required more preparation, but it wouldn't be much more time until it was done as well. Rushing to plate the fish and keep tabs on the shrimp-fried rice and the new customers was... not the easiest thing Mizuko had ever done, but soon the fish was properly on the plate.

"I... I'm glad to see you're enjoying the sake ~[i]degeso[/i]," said Mizuko with a slightly-strained smile. She was happy, but... she hadn't quite been prepared for so many customers at once. "Your haddock is ready ~[i]degeso[/i]!"
