"I say, can't you act a bit more normal? You're a Great Tengu, for goodness' sake! Don't turn into a creep every ti food is involved!"
Inside the Yakumo Residence, Yukari was in a state of distress. She felt like Yamcha being hugged by a Saibaman.
gumu Iizunamaru was clinging to her like a koala, refusing to let go.
"We had a deal!" gumu shrieked, pressing her forehead against Yukari's. "You took my seeds! You promised the harvest! Now the Moriya duo are eating strawberries on the summit, and I have nothing! If I don't get strawberries today, I'll self-destruct right here!"
Yukari sighed. "Are they ripe already?"
She opened a Gap and peeked at Leo's farm. Indeed, he was feeding strawberries to Chen.
"Fine," Yukari nodded. "I have integrity. I'll return the strawberries. How many do you want?"
"1000!" gumu drooled. "Those seeds can grow strawberries, which have seeds, which grow more strawberries! Infinite strawberries! I want 1000!"
"1000?" Yukari stopped struggling and went limp. "Go ahead. Blow up. Do you think I'm a wishing well? He only planted ten acres. Just eat instead. I'll change my na to '1000 Strawberries' right now."
"Don't talk nonsense," gumu pouted. "A wishing well turtle wouldn't live as long as you. It was a joke! 100? 50? 20! It can't be less than 20!"
"20. Deal," Yukari snapped. "Once you get them, you leave. And don't bother again."
She turned to Ran. "Ran! Go buy the strawberries."
Ran nodded helplessly. She changed her clothes, grabbed Chen, and Gapped to the farm.
The Fishing Pavilion.
"Benefits?" Ran blinked. "Does Lord Leo want money? I will pay a premium. I need those 20 strawberries."
If she went back empty-handed, gumu would jump from Yukari onto her. And a self-destructing Tengu was ssy.
"I don't want money," Leo said, looking at Ran.
Ran was beautiful. Even in her simple tabard, she exuded an air of intellectual elegance that Sanae (the blocky statue carver) lacked.
"Let's try sothing else," Leo smiled.
Ran stiffened. Oh no. Is he going to ask for sothing improper?
"A Tail Wallet," Leo declared. "I want one too."
Ran blinked. "A... Tail Wallet?"
"Yes. Like Yukari's. Made from your fur. It's soft."
Just like Sun Wukong freezing the Seven Fairies to eat peaches, Leo ignored the beautiful fox girl in favor of her accessories. He wasn't a eunuch, but he knew his limits. He couldn't handle a Nine-Tailed Fox. But a wallet? He could handle a wallet.
"A Tail Wallet... I understand," Ran sighed, a suspicious blush coloring her cheeks.
For so reason, knowing soone was stroking an item made from her fur felt... weirdly intimate. Like phantom touch.
"Please prepare the 20 strawberries, Lord Leo. I will use so of my molted winter fur to make one for you."
"Deal," Leo grinned. "Let's head back to the farm in the evening. I'm going to fish all day. The house is still under construction."
Leo continued fishing.
Occasionally, he glanced back. Ran and Chen were playing by the riverbank. Ran was grooming Chen's ears.
Leo's mind wandered. If I posted a photo of this on social dia, 99% of anglers would die of envy. Leisurely fishing. A beautiful "wife" who doesn't nag but brings snacks. A cute "daughter" playing nearby. It's the ultimate dream.
Snap.
A Catfish broke the line. Leo snapped back to reality.
The rain stopped around 6:00 PM.
Leo packed up his gear. Harvest:
6 Catfish (Gold/Silver)
10 Shad
5 Smallmouth Bass
3 Algae
He shivered. The spring rain was cold. And his clothes were soaked.
He realized a problem: He only had one set of clothes.
He could shower in the new farmhouse (once Nitori finished it), but putting on dirty, wet clothes afterwards was miserable.
Making clothes in Stardew Valley was a nightmare.
Build Barn.
Buy Sheep.
Wait for Wool.
Craft Loom.
Spin Cloth.
Tailor.
By the ti he finished, he'd be the "Naked Farr of Stardew Valley."
He took out his phone.
Commission: Clothing Production Content: Tailor 3 sets of clothes (Spring/Sumr/Winter) based on my asurents. Reward: 20 units of ANY farm product of your choice.
He posted it.
He waited.
Sowhere in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, a certain head maid's phone pinged.
