;(Go to Ritou)
: Gorou: So this is Ritou.
: Gorou: Although it looks slightly gloomy, it feels very peaceful here. I don't see any Tenryou Commission soldiers roaming the streets... What a nice place.
: Gorou: Okay, let's get started! I'll be me, and you be a shrewd and savvy businesswoman.
: Oh, it's you. You came all this way to see me?
: Welcome to Tsukumomono Groceries, we've got everything you need...
: Gorou: Hi, so... a lot of the soldiers have been complaining about a shortage of blankets recently.
: Gorou: So, uh... ten blankets, please.
: 20,000 Mora.
: Gorou: Okay, I'll settle the check right away...
: That's it? Just like that?
: Gorou: The price seems pretty cheap to me. In which case, no need to haggle, right?
: 200,000 Mora, then.
: Gorou: I think that's still not too bad... Is that supposed to be really expensive?
: Gorou: I'm sorry, in the past, Her Excellency has always handled procurement of military supplies.
: Gorou: I don't know the specific prices of these items, so I never really know how to respond...
: Gorou: This won't get us anywhere. I have to haggle to give you the chance to use your wily tricks on me. What do we do now?
: Let's switch to something that you're more interested in.
: Gorou: Something I'm more interested in? Hmm...
: Gorou: Maybe, um... cake?
: 100,000 Mora for a slice of cake.
: Gorou: That's so expensive! I know what a fair price is when it comes to cake!
: If you want to bargain, you'll have to do as I say.
: If you can do one little thing for me...
: Gorou: Wait a sec, if you think about this from another angle...
: Gorou: A cake that costs 100,000 Mora per slice must be so much better than a regular cake!
: Gorou: Lemme see, I've been saving up recently — I think I should have enough...
: ???
: Hold on.
: Gorou: So... there isn't really a kind of cake that costs 100,000 Mora per slice?
: I really don't think so...
: I... don't know...
: Gorou: What a shame.
: Gorou: I feel like role-playing as a vendor is a little outside our area of expertise. Hmm, what kind of person do we both see regularly enough to impersonate convincingly?
: I think I've met Fatui with the right kind of personality...
: Gorou: Fatui? Then it looks like a trip into the wild is in order.
: Gorou: Let's go give it a try!
----
;(Go to the wilds of Narukami Island where the Fatui are)
: Gorou: I've dealt with Fatui before, but I always end up against those big stocky guys who are much taller than me.
: Gorou: I'm sure I must train just as hard as they do every day, but somehow, I still don't have the muscles to show for it. Maybe I'll start to see the results in a few more years.
: I can't wait to see that.
:: Gorou: Right? Haha... I mean, at the very least, I need to look more muscular than my subordinates.
: I like you just the way you are.
:: Gorou: Really? That's very kind. But still, I think that I should aim to look more muscular than my subordinates at the very least.
: Gorou: I know that people's trust in me has nothing to do with my size, but if I were taller and bulkier, they'd be able to identify me from behind more easily when charging into battle.
: Gorou: That way, our forces wouldn't scatter so easily. As long as I was on the field, they'd be able to follow me.
: Gorou: Ah, enough of that. Let's get back to it! Who are you going to role-play as this time?
: The more, the merrier!
: Are you... here to play with me?
: Let me amuse myself a little...
: Gorou: What!
: Gorou: I smell danger!
: Hehe, it's just me.
: Looks like I was pretty convincing.
: Gorou: Really? Huh, for a moment there, I could have sworn the actual Fatui were right here...
: Gorou: No, wait ... behind you!
: Gorou: It wasn't my imagination, they really are here. Prepare to engage!
;(Defeat the attacking Fatui)
----
;(After the battle)
: Gorou: It's all fun and games until the real Fatui show up, huh...
: Gorou: That little interruption has really ruined the mood for me. Let's not do any more Fatui impressions for today.
: Gorou: It seems in poor taste after the trouble they caused in Watatsumi Island, anyway... Do we have any other options?
: There's only one thing for it.
: Time for plan Z.
: Gorou: Hmm. What do you mean...?
: Let's cut to the chase!
: I'll imitate the person you fear the most.
: Gorou: !!!
: Gorou: I—Isn't this moving a little too fast?
: Gorou: Her Excellency advocates slow and steady progress in all things, and cautions against trying to advance too quickly.
: Gorou: To clarify, it's not that I'm scared, it's just that I don't know if the time is right...
: Be brave and give it a try.
: It's time to take this step.
: Gorou: ...
: Gorou: I guess you're right. Thanks for your encouragement, it's not like me to shy away from a challenge like this.
: Gorou: Let's do it — time for a make-or-break training exercise!
===That Didn't Work?===
;(Hit the Inazuma City streets)
: Gorou: And we're back.
: Ready?
: Gorou: Don't worry. My head's in the game this time.
: Gorou: I am a high-ranking military officer of Watatsumi Island and the general of the resistance. Whatever tricks you've got up your sleeve, you're not going to get to me.
: Gorou: So bring it on!
: It sounds like you won't mind if I don't go easy on you?
: How adorable.
: Gorou: This feels like...
: Let's see that gorgeous tail!
: Go on, let me rub your ears!
: Gorou: Yes, it definitely feels like...
: Like Yae Miko?
: Gorou: No, not even slightly.
: ???
: Gorou: It's not that you do a bad impression of her. More like... something is missing.
: Gorou: I finally realized it when you were talking to me just now. I think that maybe what I'm really afraid of is her knowing smile and her piercing gaze.
: Gorou: It just makes me feel like all my secrets have nowhere to hide, like she can just peer in and see them. But it's different with you. I trust you, so I don't feel I need to hide my secrets in the first place.
: Gorou: Even when you're imitating the way she speaks, I don't feel afraid. Because we've fought side by side in the past, and I know I don't have to have my guard up around you.
: That makes sense...
: Gorou: *sigh*... But it also means that this training won't work.
: Gorou: I just have to accept that this is a weakness of mine, as much as it pains me to do so.
: Gorou: The thought of having to live with this weakness forever is frustrating...
: Why don't we go buy some cake?
: Surely some cake will cheer you up.
: Gorou: Are you serious? I'd love that!
: Gorou: I haven't eaten anything sweet in a long time...
: Gorou: Off we go! Let's go buy some cake!
:
: Gorou: Alright! The next step is to find somewhere nice and quiet...
;(Go to the spot)
: Gorou: Mmm... mmm... this is so good!
: You don't get to eat cake very often?
: Gorou: It's certainly a rarity in the camp.
: Gorou: It's seen as a luxury item in the ranks of the resistance... we have special meals on occasion, but even then, it usually means meat and wine — not dessert.
: Gorou: So, thank you for treating me to some cake.
: Gorou: The only downside with Narukami Island's pastries is that they're such exquisite things, you can't just chow down on them.
: Gorou: But as Her Excellency says, a general needs to show patience and restraint...
: Want to try my cake?
: I don't mind sharing it if you want some.
: Gorou: Wow, uh... d—don't mind if I do!
: Gorou: It's so sweet...
