3-11: A Gnawing Feeling That We Have Met
Harveston - Raceway
Epel Epel	Everyone, please stop your sleds! Say "Whoa"!
"WHOA"!
Epel Epel	All three of you stopped smoothly! You've improved so much in so little time! Accelerating and decelerating are both smooth too, and you're now able to get through corners without a hitch. No one would believe that it's your first time Plush Sledding today! Isn't it wonderful!
Jade Jade	It is all thanks to your excellent tutelage, Epel.
Idia Idia	Fuheehee… I-It's alright to keep the praises coming, you know. Yours truly is the type who improve from being complimented…!
Sebek Sebek	ME TOO!!
Epel Epel	All of you have become such fine Mushers already.
Sebek Sebek	Mashers? What's that?
Jade Jade	It is a type of equipment used to crush food like potatoes or hardboiled eggs…although, that doesn't sound like what we are currently discussing.
Epel Epel	It refers to the people who partake in Plush Sledding!
Idia Idia	Papparappapa!! Idia has obtained the "Musher" title!
Epel Epel	Now then. Since we've gotten to a good point, let's have a break.
Idia Idia	But that means I'm back to my senses from that high.
Sebek Sebek	I can still carry on and train! If we want to get better at anything, then we need to train tons, no other way to it!!
Epel Epel	But if you train for too long, the fatigue will build up and you'll lose focus and lead to accidents happening. In contrast, I feel that having sufficient rest allows your mind and body to refresh themselves, and make practice sessions much more efficient as a result.
Sebek Sebek	Ngh…but…it feels like we're wasting time. I want to practice as much as time would allow.
Epel Epel	You're really serious about this, huh, Sebek… Here, we actually cherish our tea breaks very dearly. We would snack on desserts while drinking coffee or tea. That's how we enjoy conversations with our friends and family.
Jade Jade	Allow yourself some time to experience Harveston's local customs, Sebek. After all, this is a rare opportunity to behold in the first place.
Sebek Sebek	…Okay, got it. I'll take a short break then.
Epel Epel	There's an aid station up ahead, so I'll go and grab some drinks for us.
Grim Grim	Fnagh? What's this aye-duh-whatchamacallit exactly?
Sebek Sebek	They are pitstops set up to provide food and drink during marathons or bicycle races, right?
Epel Epel	Yeah. There are many teams that practise like us on the day before the race starts, so they have light bites prepared at the stations already.
Grim Grim	Wahaha!! That's a pretty good service!!
Epel Epel	Grandma will hand us food and drinks for our actual Kelkkarotu run tomorrow. She'd promised to support us with all her strength, after all.
Jade Jade	Indeed. I can very easily see that happening.
Epel Epel	You can also fix up your plushies at the aid stations and receive updates about the race's situation, for instance.
Sebek Sebek	That'd be great!
Epel Epel	Would it be alright if both Yuu and Grim help us out there too?
Grim Grim	Sure! Leave it all to me!
Sebek Sebek	Oh? I was sure it would've been more in line with your character to refuse to do so because "it's a pain".
Grim Grim	I mean, going to the aid-whatever means there'd be food and drinks, right?
Epel Epel	That's true, but it's not all for you, alright!
Choice 1: Of course I'd love to help!		Choice 2: I'll make sure to assist all of you!
Epel Epel Jade Jade	We'll be counting on you. The race's development often changes based on the exchanges made with the staff at the aid stations.I will be sure to give you good tips on how to effectively "assist" the other teams, then.
Sebek Sebek Epel Epel	You'll be inheriting a grave responsibility, Yuu.That sort of assistance would get Yuu chased out by the management staff, though…?!
Epel Epel	I'll be right back, then! Please wait!
Idia Idia	…I vote that we keep our break going on forever.
Jade Jade	An agreeable sentiment. Since we are already able to make it this far on our sleds, anymore practice is probably unnecessary.
Sebek Sebek	How pathetic… This much is nothing if I were serious!
Grim Grim	Nice, nice. This should mean that you lot can win even without me joining.
Sebek Sebek	Don't make me laugh. We'd be in much more dire straits if you were on the team instead.
Grim Grim	What did you just say?!
BSSHH!!
Sebek Sebek	Ow! What are you doing, Grim?!
Grim Grim	Aw yeah, the snow hit Sebek! That'll show you!
Sebek Sebek	Hit by a mere monster… Don't you dare think I'm gonna let you get away with that snowball!!
Smack!!
Jade Jade	Hehe… I see you are thoroughly enjoying the snowy mountain, Sebek.
Smack!!
Jade Jade	Bwha?!
Grim Grim	Wahahahaha! How's that, Jade?! It sure gives you the chills, doesn't it?!
Jade Jade	…Now that my memory has been jogged, I have always wished to participate in a real snowball fight myself. I presume you are absolutely prepared for what's to come, O' Grim.
BASH!!
Grim Grim	FNAAAGGGHHH!!!
Choice 1: Grim, say sorry!		Choice 2: Here goes!

Grim Grim	Wahahaha! Eat this, Yuu!
Smack!!

BASH!!
Grim Grim	Fnagh! Oh, you've gone and done it now, Yuu!

Idia Idia	Sigh… Lord save me… Running around during a break of all times is just so stupid…
Grim Grim	I'm gonna strike Idia too!
BASH!!
Idia Idia	Buhhee!
Grim Grim	And another one for Sebek!
Sebek Sebek	Hmph! You may have gotten me by surprise just now, but now that I'm ready, you will not be getting even a single snowflake on me!
Smack!!
??? ???	Wha-?!
Sebek Sebek	Oi! Didn't it just hit that small human up ahead?!
Jade Jade	Did it hurt you by any chance? How horrible of them, committing such a terrible deed.
Idia Idia	Sir Jade's treating us like strangers now…
??? ???	Everyone, there's no need to worry about me, really.
??? ???	What are you guys up to?! Are you trying to pick a snowball fight with us?!
??? ???	Really?! Yaaaay! Sounds like fun!
Smack!!
Grim Grim	Fnagh?!
??? ???	It hit~! No hard feelings, alright~
??? ???	Goodness! Hop, Gran! That was rude of you two!
Jade Jade	…Does anyone else also have a gnawing feeling that we have met these young gentlemen before at some point?
Choice 1: Really?		Choice 2: I remember!
Sebek Sebek Idia Idia	I feel like I've seen them before somewhere too.Do you now? I don't really keep track of people's faces, so…
??? ???	Hyaahhhh~! Being stared at that much is…really embarrassing…
Epel Epel	Sorry to keep you all waiting! I brought back some tea and cinnamon rolls for all of us! …Ah!! You guys are-?! -from Royal Sword Academy!!!
WHAAAT?!
