## Tino's Mini Game

**Tino's Mini Game is a short story that was released for a limited amount of time to celebrate the release of Tino's route.**

Dia, Jasper, Knight, Lynt, Rio, Thoma, and Tino are in the refectory. Jasper asks if it's true that Tino discovered a series of new baked goods. Tino says yes. He says that he did a lot of searching on his own, but he also got a lot of help from everyone else. So, he also has to thank everyone else for his success in finding these unusual baked goods. Lynt smiles at Tino's words. Rio says that he can also make a dish to go with the baked goods if Tino needs him to. Dia is quietly watching nearby. Jasper sees Dia and comments on how there are some people who have made a rare appearance here. Knight then states that the baked goods look suspicious and wonders if they are safe. Tino volunteers to be the first to taste-test them so that no one else will be harmed from eating them.

* The orange bun.

Tino chooses the orange bun and says that it looks enticing. As Tino is eating the bun, the door to the refectory opens. Sherry and Grayson come in. Sherry comments on how there is such a lively gathering happening here in the refectory. Grayson asks what the occasion is for so many people to be gathered here. Tino greets Sherry and Grayson. He explains to them that they are currently taste-testing various baked goods that none of them have ever tried before. Sherry says that it sounds fun and asks if Tino made all of these baked goods. Tino is about to say no when Rio interjects and says that he was the one who made this orange bun. Sherry says that the orange bun looks good. Tino agrees and asks if he should cut it into pieces so that everyone can have some. Sherry wonders if that would be impolite since these baked goods were made for Tino. Tino tells her that food tastes better when it's shared amongst friends. Grayson says that it's just like Tino to say something like that. Rio says that he can always make more buns if they run out. Tino then tells everyone to try the orange bun.

* The purple roll.

Knight says that the purple roll has a dodgy color. Jasper agrees and says that it's not only purple, but it's also a very bright shade of purple. Tino suddenly makes a strange noise as he is eating it. Knight asks Tino if he is alright. Tino then makes another odd noise. Jasper exlaims "Oh dear". Tino then says that he can't stop crying. Dia expected Tino to start crying. Jasper asks Dia if he was the one who made this bread roll. Dia replies with "what of it?". Knight says that Tino is sobbing his eyes out, so there is one reason why Dia should answer the question. Meanwhile, Tino continues to cry. Dia explains that the bread roll contains a mushroom that makes a person cry when they eat it. He justifies himself by saying that Tino asked him for something unusual. Knight says that this is probably the most unusual bread that Tino has ever had. Tino asks Dia what he should do as he continues to cry. Dia tells him that the effect of the mushroom will fade away at some point. Tino says "Oh dear" as he continues sobbing.

* The rainbow twist.

Tino comments on how the bread twist has such a beautiful color. Lynt says that he was the one who brought it. Tino says that he will definitely savor every bite since it's from Lynt. Tino then tries the bread twist. Thoma asks Tino about how it tastes. But, Tino's face suddenly gets really red. Lynt calls his name as if to ask him if anything is wrong. Tino says that he feels hot. Lynt is confused and asks what he means. Thoma states that there is definitely something wrong with Tino. He then asks why Tino is removing his clothes as Tino removes his outer jacket. Tino explains that he feels burning hot. He then proceeds to take off his shirt and his now half-naked. Lynt says that he actually asked Headmaster Lou to make an unusual baked good for him. He then asks if he shouldn't have done that. Tino starts breathing heavily from the heat. Thoma wonders what the Headmaster put inside that bread twist.

## Tino's Message After Release of Consort Route

Tino says that he enjoyed tasting all the unusual baked goods. He thinks that they will be great inspiration for when he bakes something in the future. Tino then asks if MC would be willing to taste test his new creation with him, once he creates it. He tells her that taste-testing is more fun with her presence. It is then assumed that MC asked Tino why it would be more fun. Tino replies that it's because he is fond of her smile. He says that being by her side is a blessing. Finally, Tino asks MC if she would grace him with her smile. He tells her that if she graces him with a smile, then he will work hard every day to be worthy of her smile.
