Awww, flattery will get you everywhere. Thanks, mysterious stranger.
[ Ritsuka bats her lashes at him, exaggerated and deliberately silly, as she gathers up the fallen wool. Even in its raw state, it's softer than she expects, and she can't help but pause for a moment to flex her fingers in it.
Also, if she does that, it gives her some extra time to think of another stupid pun. ]
I'm gonna hold you to that, though... because if you try and fleece me, I'll definitely find out.
[ As soon as he hears that pun, Akira knows—it's time to act. Taking advantage of how distracted they are, he manages to shear two sheep, leaving wool around them. It's surprising that other sheep aren't panicking seeing this, but he's not going to question that for too long. ]
Mysterious stranger works, but you can call me Akira, too. Less of a mouthful.
[ He'd rather not risk another panic at the tiny sheep farm, so here comes another pun: ]
If it all goes wool, we'll be getting some nice pocket money at the end of the day. Do you want to try?
[ He can be the whisperer for a while, if she'd like to give shearing a shot. ]
[ She perks up at the offer, though at the moment she's trying to sweep up the wool, out of the way of the newly-shorn sheep. Can sheep trip over their own wool? She doesn't particularly want to find out, not if it results in anyone here getting toasted. ]
I'm so broke right now, it's almost not funny. I'm Ritsuka, by the way, nice to meet ewe.
[ Introducing yourself in the middle of something like this, complete with bad pun, is possibly not ideal, but better than either a fight or fire. She'll take it. ]
