Giving Thanks

-Valentine's Day

Nikako: Okay, let's go. Music start!

Iruru: Here, here~. Daikoku, hurry up and move to my side.

Daikoku: I-I'm going to drop it, don't speed up…...!

Shigure: It's a surreal sight when you look at it objectively......

Iruru: I didn't think we would do something like this in Eden-

Nikako: -Yes, stop! The one you’re holding now is for you. Everyone open them!

Daikoku: This box is awfully tightly wrapped......

Shigure: Hey, hey! That's Shigure's, please open it carefully!

Iruru: Is this......Earth?　

Iruru: It’s an interesting chocolate like the planets.

Nikako: This is mine! The appearance is reproduced, and the order is the same as in the solar system.

Daikoku: Mine is......standard raw chocolate?

Shigure: How rude. It's a rare chocolate with apples and other fruits.

Nikako: Wow, smells good, like black tea! Whose is this?

Daikoku: It's mine....... I thought it would go with reading and studying.

Shigure: Gyaaaaaaaa!

Nikako: Shigure-chan!? What's wrong?

Shigure: There's a stag beetle in it! Shigure’s chocolate, it's stag beetle chocolate!

Iruru: That's mine! I thought it would be better to have at least one person who could tell a story...... I didn't expect Shigure to get it.

Shigure: This is impossible! Are you stupid!? The probability of 1 in 4 is obviously too high!?

Daikoku: It doesn't look realistic at all, it's just a cute little thing. You're making too big a fuss......

Iruru: I'm really sorry~.

Iruru: Then, let's exchange it for my planet chocolate.

Nikako: In that case, let's exchange Irurun’s for mine! I used to catch stag beetles on the island! I'll eat it happily!

Shigure: There's no point in matching it to the music anymore…...

Hatsumi: What's going on? You're even more lively than usual today.

Daikoku: My Lord!

Hatsumi: Looks like you’re all here.

Iruru: Hm? Hatsumi, that paper bag-

Iruru: It can't be, Valentine's Day!?

Hatsumi: Ah......was I found out?

Hatsumi: I want to give it to you one by one, so could you give me some time?

Hatsumi: Nikako has an assortment of crystal-clear amber sugar to represent the image of Aogashima and purity. Daikoku is a terrine chocolat filled with berry sauce, representing inner passion.

Hatsumi: Shigure is a sweet ganache that is easy to eat, but the decoration is classical and elaborate. Last but not least, Iruru-.

Hatsumi: Chocolate-coated marron glacé. The calm sweetness feels very like Iruru. But it also feels special.

Iruru: T......Thank you! Wow, everyone's chocolate is different. It must have taken you a long time to choose them, right?

Hatsumi: Yeah. I chose the ones I thought you'd like and based on my thoughts on you. I hope it suits your taste......

Iruru: And there's a message card in it!?

Iruru: No way, I didn't expect Hatsumi to do something so cool.

Daikoku: This is handwritten, isn't it......!? I'll treasure it for the rest of my life......!

Nikako: Wow....... I'll eat it with care!

Hatsumi: Well, I can’t say it myself, but I've put you guys through a lot of hardship. I'm a little embarrassed, but this is my way of expressing my gratitude.

Shigure: Hmm~? It's true, Hatsumi-san, your cheeks are a little red.

Hatsumi: Don't stare at me too much.

Daikoku: ......My Lord! These are my feelings for you!

Hatsumi: Oh!　

Hatsumi: Thank you, Daikoku, I'll eat it with care.

Nikako: ......Ah.

Hatsumi: So, next...... Is it Iruru's turn?

Iruru: .......

Hatsumi: What kind of chocolate is it? I've been looking forward to it this year too.

Iruru: I'm sorry! I haven't prepared chocolates for you yet.

Hatsumi: ......Eh!?
