Elena's smile is bright as she makes her way over, holding up one of the biscuit stick from her box. "They've been handing out these treats quite willy nilly today. I can hardly finish the whole box on my lonesome."
On the side of the box were instructions for a game. Elena put the biscuit between her teeth and showed it off to Zephia, playfully wiggling the little biscuit as if inviting her.
Pocky Game — No longer accepting!

"You'll get crumbs everywhere, at that rate," Zephia tuts, but she neither sends the woman away nor chastises her further. Instead, she takes the box, glancing over the instructions quickly before looking up again with a quiet hum.
So this was how the game was actually supposed to be played? And here, she'd thought the ones she'd kissed—or nearly kissed, really—had been flustered because they've never done so before. Who knew the activity was truly this simple?
"It's quite a greeting. Most would introduce themselves with names first, wouldn't they?" It's half a tease. Or... maybe a third of a tease. Still, Zephia decides to humor the woman by stepping up to her. "Come now; look up."
She takes the initiative by tipping the woman's chin up with a finger, and remains entirely unblinking as she takes a bite of the biscuit. With a single bite, it snaps, veering closer to Elena's end than Zephia's. Zephia retreats with a small smile, then, removing the biscuit from between her lips.
"...Hm. I suppose winning childish games like this every once in a while isn't bad at all."
