A sweet shop run, what the hell was up with that. Raizou sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he was made to go from place to place. ”Tch. The old lady is going crazy just because she’s turning fifty.” Sure, he had promised to get her anything she wanted with his savings, but wasn't she going just a little bit over the top since he had come back from the war?
Whatever, he sealed away a set of bags and put the scroll back in his pocket, at least he could cheat a little bit before he gulped as he looked at the sign of the next store. Yeah, this one would hurt… ”Three missions? Maybe four?” That was how much he would need in order to recoup whatever he would spend here as he looked at the list in his hand. He walked right in, and waited in the queue, it was a famous shop in the village, Konoha seemed to adore this kind of business, but he did note that he was the only guy in the shop at the moment, barring the children.
Even brats could afford this it seemed? Raizou shook his head at the purses of children at present. This was the highest quality sweets shop in the village, and soon enough came his turn as he stood at the desk. The sheer breadth of options before him were almost breathtaking, and yet he couldn’t quite choose just what it was he needed to get. He looked from his list before passing it over to the store clerk.
”Sorry, we don’t seem to have any Namagashi with red bean paste filling at the minute…Is black bean paste fine?” It was a simple question, but looking at the price difference…Raizou nodded before.. ”Ah. Wait. No filling is better, yeah. Actually…” He debated back and forth with himself before just agreeing to the black bean paste.
This same exchange happened again, and again, making his time at the front take a substantial amount, the line grew longer, and people grew more impatient, but it almost seemed as if the dull flash cared not, though in reality he was just spending way too much attention towards understanding the myriad of sweets that stood were on this list.
