[indent][indent]Coming to a slow canter, Takara brought her horse around and towards the direction Haruhi was heading. With a smile on her face, she had Masaru follow along beside the girl so the two of them could converse.

[color=0086d4]"Luckily for you, it isn't me asking. My chichi sent me to put in our request for a resupply after the festival. Lots of hungry folks out there not named [i]me[/i] around this time, you know."[/color]

Indeed, the week leading up to the Dance of the Serpent had always been rough on the Crane's Roost. Many village folk would flock there to celebrate through day and night, and in turn were often hungry for a home-cooked meal from the Hayashis. Although their hungry appetites weren't an unusual sight at the Crane's Roost, a week's worth of constant celebration was enough to put a sizeable dent in the inn's resources. There was usually enough supply to stay open by the end of festivities, but regardless it was still a good idea to ensure they weren't going to run [i]completely[/i] dry by putting in their next restock order ahead of time.

[color=0086d4]"It'd be our usual order."[/color] Takara continued. Letting go of the reins temporarily, she began to count off vegetable names with her hands. [color=0086d4]"Hakusai, daikon, satoimo..."[/color]

After she had named a few examples, Takara turned her attention back to the road ahead of them. The village wasn't that far off from where they were currently, but horseback would certainly be faster than by foot regardless.

[color=0086D4]"Want a ride into town?"[/color] She asked, grabbing Masaru's reins in one hand. The other was outstretched towards Haruhi, ready to help lift the girl onto the horse if she so desired. [color=0086d4]"Just make sure you hold on tight to me if you do. We wouldn't want you falling off and bruising your behind, now would we?"[/color]

Takara playfully winked at Haruhi, hoping she would accept her offer.[/indent][/indent]
