As light from the morning sun shone through the paper sliding doors, ears of the white fox twitched and eyelids squeezed into a squint. [color=D4E6F1][b]"Mmmm... Just a few more minutes..."[/b][/color] Koyuki mumbled half awake, uttering what she used to say while getting up for early morning duties at the inn in Eiseikato. A minute had passed before the sleepyhead realized that she was in fact, not in Eiseikato anymore and not going to work in a few minutes. The days of being forced to awake early to prepare for morning duties at the inn had certainly been ingrained into her body clock, for it was barely just sun rise and she was ready to get up.

A yawn. Rub at eyes. Stretch. Just her usual wake up routine. Hm? After becoming more than just half awake, Koyuki [i]felt[/i] something was different. She blinked. Then blinked once more. Blue orbs scanned over herself in her sleeping wear until they caught sight of an extra fluff. [i]Is... that a new tail???[/i] The fox spirit counted, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5! 5 tails! Making sure she did not just miscount, she counted again while holding each. 1, 2, 3, 4,... 5! The conversation the young fox had with her mentor came back into mind, was this the physical evidence of her accomplishment the past week in training? With a toothy grin, the fluff behind her swished excitedly, the fruits of the student's effort was visible for all to see.

The mumble from her fellow roommate startled the fox. Just a brief look at him and the cans around the boy... Koyuki decided not to ask.

[color=D4E6F1][b]"Ughhh, according to my calculations, that claw [i]should[/i] have been able to lift the doll towards the hole, but why?"[/b][/color] The frustration in the high pitched voice was evident and even moreso upon the fox girl's features. It took a good 10 minutes for the yokai to understand the mechanics of a "[I]c-law ma-chi-ne[/I]" but understanding how to play was not even half the battle. A couple of 100 yen coins later, Koyuki gave up on the idea of scoring a 'mini me' small fox plush for herself and eyes wandered towards the other games. A certain neon light flashing machine caught her eye.

[color=D4E6F1][b]"Oh! Oh! Is that what my friends called [i]Dance Dance Re-vo-lu-tion[/I]? Seirin, come join me!"[/b][/color] The reserved girl seemed hesitant at first but could not say no to the other girl with twinkle in her eyes as if begging. A soft "Alright" was all it took for Koyuki to grab Seirin by the arm and rush towards the dance pad machine. Neither of them were familiar with how to operate the machine (both being sheltered kids) but that didn't stop the silverette from pressing buttons and somehow managed to get to the music select screen. Quickly scanning over the list of music, [url=https://youtu.be/qomXhHL08Fg]one particular song[/url] stood out with the cute banner and music to which Seirin also gave a nod of approval to. One press of the button and the fun was about to begin.

The DDR session went pretty decent for a pair of beginners. Koyuki probably could've done better if not for the fact that she quite literally danced on the pads instead of paying full attention to the arrows on the screen. People who spectated the two chuckled at the sight, even managing Seirin to stifle a smile while playing. They had fun and that's all that mattered to the silly fox.

After leaving the DDR machine behind them, a group of giggling teenage girls had just gotten out of the purikura photo booth just close by. This piqued Koyuki's interest, causing her to yell towards the other classmates+Seirin, [color=D4E6F1][b]"Hey! Would you all like to take this [i]pu-ri-ku-ra[/i] together? Come, don't be shy! Let's take some as [i]sou-ve-nir[/i]!"[/b][/color] After gathering her classmates (and dragging hesitant people like Aurelius) into the booth area, the gang took several shots in small groups to fit into the frame.

Koyuki chuckled at the resulting photos, from top to bottom: first shot with all the girls featuring Lorelai, Ultana, Lady, Koyuki and Seirin at the center in all smiles and posing peace signs, second shot with the few boys in the group+their new friend, Seirin, Otis and Aurelius who seemed to be forced into the photo frame with Lady and Koyuki's arms poking in from the side. The other shots were just as silly or casual with mixed group but what really took the cake and made the fox spirit laugh was the last one where everyone tried to all fit into the frame but it was clearly chaos in a picture. The taller ones at the back seemed to have accidentally knocked onto the other, Aurelius barely holding Lady up with Lorelai knocked into her. Ultana on the side laughing at the situation while Seirin with a troubled look. Otis' neck creepily rotated 180 towards the others with exhausted eyes. Finally, Koyuki literally hogged the lower part of the screen with paw-like hands by being too near the camera. 

There was enough strips of the purikura photos for everyone and was distributed to each, Koyuki keeping hers in the wallet as a memento.
