A Zoo on the Mainland, Tuesday Afternoon

[intraspective]

This... wasn't how she'd planned to spend her day, but spontaneity didn't hurt no one and Ino was in a great mood as she and Sparkle hit up the zoo, of all places. It was a hot, sunny day and the zoo was crowded.

But since it wasn’t yet school holidays and it was just a Tuesday, it wasn’t too bad, all things considered. (Ino was pretending that she hadn't noticed the number of children present on field trips.)

Ino peered at her map of the zoo grounds as they got through the front gates. "Where to first?" she asked. "You hungry? Guess I should’ve asked first."

She’d sent Silly home. It had seemed like a bad idea to bring a baby bird to a zoo.

[For Sparkle, yo! NFB.]

"The real problem would be convincing people to buy it," Ino mused. "But I suppose we could drop it on someone with tech more advanced than us and see what they come up with."

"I mean, hot chocolate should be reason enough on its own, right?"

At least, Sparkle thought so.

"You'd think so," she agreed. Since, well, hot chocolate. Ino was a fan. "But it's hard to tell, you know? Especially in the summer..."

"I was gonna suggest we just tell people to serve it iced," Sparkle noted, "but I'm pretty sure once you start heading in that direction, you just get chocolate milk."
