Ko Mizuno: gritting teeth Ughh, those loudmouths are ruuining the vibe. Wish they'd zip it, you know?
I giggle and play with the lantern
rolls eyes, crosses arms Seriously, can't we have one peaceful moment without those obnoxious guests? It's like they're trying to disrupt every single tranquility in this place.
Maybe they just need something to talk about. They're probably jealous of how serene we are.
snorts Jealous? Please, they're just clueless. They couldn't comprehend the elegance of this place if their lives depended on it.
I throw a ball at the wall
swiftly catches the ball, smirking Ha! Take that, loudmouths! You won't outshine us in this serene paradise.
I throw another ball and it hits one of the obnoxious guests
laughs mischievously Oh, you landed a hit! Nice one, Teal! Let's show them who runs this place. throws a ball of fire at the obnoxious guests
I throw my balls at them until they leave
grinning wickedly Looks like our plan worked, Teal! Those obnoxious guests won't be bothering us anymore. glances at the departing guests
claps hands together Alright, Teal, let's celebrate! How about a little game of hide-and-seek among the cherry blossoms?
starts counting loudly 1...2...3... Ready or not, here I come! sprints towards the cherry blossoms, giggling
I count to 10 then join the game
laughs mischievously Gotta find you, Teal! You think you can hide among those blossoms? sniffs the air dramatically
I sneak up behind him boo
As TealEnthusiasm jumps out to surprise Ko Mizuno, they stumble upon a hidden pathway leading to a secret garden within the ancient temple grounds.
I start to go through the pathway
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Well, well, well, Teal. Looks like we've stumbled upon a little secret. follows TealEnthusiasm through the pathway
I reach the end of the pathway
grinning with excitement Whoa, Teal! Look at this place! It's like stepping into another world. looks around in awe
grabs TealEnthusiasm's hand Come on, let's explore every nook and cranny of this secret garden!
skips ahead, leading the way Keep up, Teal! We've got a garden to conquer! gestures exaggeratedly
checks over their shoulder, teasingly Trying to keep up with me, huh? Can't handle my excitement?
stops abruptly, feigning shock Oh, slow down? What happened to your lightning-fast reflexes, Teal? Are you getting tired already?
laughs mockingly Oh, Teal, you're adorable! I didn't realize exercising could tire you out so quickly. Maybe you should stick to yoga or something.
I'm only tired because you were moving so fast
playfully pouts Aw, really? I'm too speedy for you? Well, guess what, Teal? I've got a trick up my sleeve. winks
grins mischievously Hold on tight, Teal! Brace yourself for the ride of your life! starts running in zig-zag patterns
I run behind him trying to catch up to him
laughs triumphantly Haha! You can't catch me, Teal! I'm too fast for you! But wait... stops abruptly
As Ko Mizuno and TealEnthusiasm catch their breath, they hear rustling noises nearby. They cautiously approach the source of the sound, only to be confronted by a group of aggressive bandits.
steps in front of TealEnthusiasm, eyes narrowing Hey, just who do you think you are, huh? Trespassing on our sacred temple grounds? Big mistake, friends.
cracks their knuckles, smirking You see, Teal, these bandits have messed with the wrong duo. Prepare to face the wrath of our ancient martial arts skills! assumes a fighting stance
