Well, at least he hadn't made Minami squeak that frankly distressing squeak when he was on the brink of tears. This was not the time for that, after all, this was supposed to be all in good fun! The excitement over the goldfish made him chuckle quietly.

"Not really, but maybe I'll get lucky this year."

He moved forward with the line, nibbling the chicken off of one of his last skewers as he lifted up higher onto his toes. They were getting closer now at least. He holds out the last of his food for Minami, figuring he should at least have his hands free by the time they got their chance to conquer the goldfish scoop.
