[ Yes! It's the only way they can keep holding both hands. So onward to the direction they think it is! ]

Could be! [ Maybe they'll try all the flavors to be sure. Or get a brain freeze trying... ]

Where could you find apple ice cream in your world?

Hm, maybe in a specialized ice scream store? It's not a common flavor, so they would have it, depending on how much of it is in demand. I could just look it up online, but if it's so far away, I wouldn't want to fly a plane just for that. I'm not made of money~

I'm satisfied with regular apples. The red honeycrisp brand was pretty good when I was in America~

I was in Romania just before coming here! I wonder if there's any shops that carries it near there. If there isn't, then I'll keep an eye for some on my travels.

[ They will try to remember to actually look for specialized ice cream stores.

Nearly walking past the K-mart entrance. They are actually going to let go of one of his hands to hold just the one and actually walk forward like a normalish person. ]

Besides apples, what else do you like? Do you like sweets?

[ Astolfo trying so hard to be a normal person... It's more comfortable for Seo too. ]

Sweets are fine, but I don't like them to the extent of having a sweet tooth. Pies are pretty good too~

[ He should have let Astolfo crash into something. ]

What about bitter things or spicy food? [ Wait! ] Oh! You said something about making a meat pie before. Do you like meat pies?

[ Leading him to the grocery side of the store. ]

[ He's trying to be nice!! He's about to answer the thing about bitter and spicy food, but then Astolfo moves onto the meat pie topic. ]

I wouldn't say it's my favorite, but I know someone who likes it a lot! I baked one for his birthday~

[ It's sweet! Just like it's sweet he's letting Astolfo just go on and on like this. ]

They must mean a lot to you if you baked for his birthday. Was it the kid you helped raised or one of your coworkers? [ They do slow a bit as they try to figure out where ice cream could be.

Then they'll turn towards where all the cold food stuff is. Time to walk past all the kid cuisines ]

[ It sure is... Seo would rather Astolfo go on about things rather than talking about himself too much anyway. But stuff like this is something he doesn't mind. ]

It was the kid. We all had a present for him~ because we like him soooo much.

[ Meanwhile, they want to hear more about Seo. This does seem like a better topic for him, so they'll run with it for a bit. ]

You said he was all kinds of good, right? Tell me more about him. Do you have any funny stories?

Ah, well~ Whenever we would mention his dad, he would always perk up no matter what he was doing. He loved him veeery much, you see--to the point of unconditional devotion. When the dad first came to join us, we would tease him about being a papa as little Reiji slept in his arms~

[ Ah. Memories. ]

[ Curling their free hand into a fist to press it against their cheek. ]

Ah, that's cute. That's cute. They are really lucky to have each other!

[ Imagine being close to a parent can't be them. They are finally at the frozen desserts section! They will let him go to open up the door for him to pick his treat first. ]

Were you close to your family?

[ When they arrive where the cold food is, Seo looks over at the choice while humming. He heard Astolfo, but needs some time to think about his question. ]

No, prooobably not?

[ ... ]

Absolutely not!

[ Astolfo's attention drifts from him to the selection as he gives the usual fangy grin. ]

It's the same for me. [ For much different reasons, but he'll leave the choice on elaborating further to Seo at the moment. ] I was only really close to Roland and Bradamante.

Though I take it that you were close to your cousins due to events in your life rather than familial ties.

[ Ice cream!! Seodore looks over the list again. ]

Some of these are so gaudy... They really let them through.

[ They have to think about it. When you're both immortal and a, as IV would say, lunatic, smaller details slip through the crack. ]

Hm... that's true! We were all Paladins of Charlamagne who adventured together.

[ He'll invade Seo's space once again to see the gaudy ones. They are going to laugh at some of them. ]

Eh? There's bugs? Who wants bugs in their ice cream? [ Gummy bugs but still! It's so funny. Astolfo is going to look around. ] Oh! Some of them have nuts. I do like nuts. Think I should try those or one of the colorful long ones?

If you like nuts, then you should choose an ice cream with them!

[ The colorful long ones... oh, that one has an interesting design. ]

The... itza... ka... doozie? Even the name is incomprehensible!

[ Pfft. Even if Astolfo said it first, they will snicker at him saying they like nuts. ]

Okay! [ They'll get the turtle one then! They'll look at the colorful long one he's trying to pronounce. It's all interesting looking! ]

Are you going to try it? Are you?

[ Where is the lie here. Seo looks at it again. ]

Yeah, I might as well try new things while I'm still here~

[ ................... ]

Other than being crushed by a chalupa. That got old really fast.

It did! I don't think I want to look at a chalupa for a long time.

[ Or dance floors. Or Britney Spears.

Astolfo will spare him from sticking hands into the freezer by picking up one of the itzakadoozies for him and offering it up. Speaking of new things!!! ]

Seo, have you tried playing the games in the radio store or built one of those bears yet?

[ But Seo has gloves!! Astolfo, please... but he accepts the popsicle anyway and frees it from its packaging. ]

I made one of those tama things in the latter, but I'm afraid I'm not suited to play games~

[ What is having sense or reason? Besides they wouldn't be much of a knight if they couldn't do this much.

Unwrapping their own ice cream. ]

Ah, so those wouldn't be anything new. [ Taking a bite of their ice cream and then grinning wide at it. ]

Oh! This is pretty good! [ Biting off a piece of the chocolate shell nomnomnom ]

[ Cute. Seo watches Astolfo bite the bits of the chocolate shell as he licks the tip of his ice pop. As he expected, it tastes very sweet, only saved by the fact that it's ice cream and probably watered down from its original flavor.

Also, for some reason, this is sour? Seo makes a face. ]

[ They have their tongue out, about to lick again when they see his whole face pucker up.

They are going to just laugh! ]

Wahahahaha! Your face. Your face!

It's so sour! I didn't expect it to be like this??

[ They're not supposed to be and I just made that up. I do what I want after endgame. ]

Here, try it.

[ He even holds it out to Astolfo. It'll be super sour. ]

[ Living your best endgame life.

Still chortling as they look at the offending pop. ]

Maybe that's why it's a doozie.

[ Since he's offering, they'll curl their hand around his hand offering the popsicle to bring it close to their mouth. Just going to bite the tip off to eat.

Only for them to make a face as well! ]

Waa! It's super sour! [ Britney WHY this ]
