"Hello, mister. Would you like to pick lavender melons with us?"

"Hm?"

A bunch of children had gathered near him, sticks in their worn-out hands that they were using to hit lavender melon trees.

He sighed. "Do you have nothing better to do than disturb others?"

The children looked at each other, perplexed.

"You were all alone, mister, so we thought of inviting you."

His eyes fell on the basket they were carrying. A few lavender melons already lay inside.

It didn't seem like the children were having any trouble with gathering, so they probably meant it when they said they wanted to simply invite him.

"Fine." He closed his eyes and stood up. He had plenty of time on his hands, so he might as well give them some of it.

[General POV]

      

"I can't believe I agreed to this..."

"Well, you can't back out now."

"I can, though."

"Okay. Please don't back out now."

Scaramouche stood in front of Ogura Textiles shop, sweatdropping at the line of clothes it had to offer.

He hadn't bothered to bring any Inazuman attire for this mission because it wasn't needed, but Y/n wouldn't have it any other way.

Scaramouche watched them stare at the options before them, before promptly turning to him. "Should we go with kimonos?"

He raised an eyebrow. "Don't overestimate yourself. You don't even know how to wear one."

"Psh- How hard could it be?" They rolled their eyes. "Anyway, do you want to wear something colorful or..?"

"I'll pick my own." He raised his hand in refusal. "For you, however... try not to stand out too much."

Ogura Mio, the shop owner, pulled out various kimonos that had already been prepared, showing a range of colorful as well as less flashy ones. Scaramouche went with a normal black one.

"Uh..." Y/n looked at his kimono, and proceeded to select a black kimono themself.

Scaramouche frowned. "Don't just copy me."
