Naruto perks at theâŚgirl? Boy? No, thatâs definitely a guy. Man, there were pretty guys here tooâŚwhy did it have to be so confusing?! He gets lost in a daze of scrutiny, expression screwed for several seconds before it occurs to him that sheâd asked a question. Thankfully she did him the favor of pointingâhe may not have caught on otherwise. To absolutely no oneâs surprise, the food that she points out is a bowl of noodles. This one has a bright and legible brand name on the cup, Lifenoodles, and boy they were just that! His eyes sparkle as he holds it up like a trophy, gaze following swirling steam as it dissipates further skyward.Â
âOh, this? I got it from a lady standing aboutâŚerâŚâ he scratches his chin, glancing to their immediate left. Blue eyes blink at least ten times before growing to the size of saucers.Â
âW-WHAT THE HELL? Where did she go?!â
âShe was RIGHT THERE, Iâm telling you!âÂ
  She squints at the label as the bowl is held up. Lifenoodles, huh? Itâs nothing foreign to her, then, though that in itself comes as a surprise. Just about everything else around here is weird and foreign, so maybe itâs more of a welcome sight.
As prompted, Kumatora then looks to the left. She doesnât need to point out that there is no lady standing there before this guy frantically realizes it himself, causing her to raise an eyebrow. â...Maybe... She left? While you werenât payinâ attention?â
Looking right boasts the same results, not that Kumatora knows exactly who sheâs even looking for. âShe could always come back, couldnât she? Or, whatever, there must be somethinâ else around here anyway...â
