Emiya

Emiya grinned and said, "Within reason.  And my reasons are pretty lenient."

You're not getting me into a sex shop.

[SINIB]

Tsumiko

Tsumiko threw the pillow aside. "Then let's go!"

[Elf]

Emiya

Emiya had to smile at Tsumiko's energy and excitement.

"Alright, let's go," he said before smirking at her, his steel colored eyes dancing.  "Have you ever ridden a motorcycle before?"

******

He didn't know where to start, but a quick check on his phone told him were the highest rated toy store in the area was.

So, they found themselves at The House of Blinsky. 

Emiya opened the door and heard a bell chime above his head.

A jovial male voice called out, "Welcome friends, to the House of Blinsky, where happiness and smiles can be bought at bargain prices. Perhaps you know a little child in need of joy? A little toy for a girl or boy?”

Standing behind the counter in front of a mass of hand made toys that made Emiya pause and admire their craftsmanship was a round man wearing a jester's cap and a small spider monkey on his shoulder.  He smiled brightly at them both and Emiya turned and looked at Tsumiko with a grin.

[SINIB]

Tsumiko

Tsumiko held onto Archer's arm, her breasts awkwardly squished against it. She looked at all of the toys silently in awe. She stared at the plush toys, intently gazing at them with longing.

"Wow..."

[Elf]

Emiya

Emiya smiled at the girl currently clinging to his arm, her ample breasts pressing against it.

It was easy to squish any illicit thoughts that would have popped up now, knowing both her and what she possessed.  So there wasn't any trace of a blush on his tawny features and his smile was genuine.  He chuckled at her childlike joy, remembering Ilya, Nursery, and Jack.  Despite how dangerous they were, they were still little girls deep down.

The toymaker smiled and clapped his hands.  "Ah, the lovely young lady has a good eye!  She likes soft things, yes?"

The spider monkey jumped from the toymaker's shoulder onto Tsumiko's with a happy squeal before gently looking through her long, violet hair.

Tsumiko

Tsumiko suppressed an urge to jump away and flee when the monkey jumped onto her. She clenched her fists and breathed slowly, looking at the jester-man.

"Ye-yeah. They're comfy."

Emiya and the Toy Store

"Oh!  It seems like Piccalo has taken a liking to you, Young Miss.  I promise, he is a friendly, happy boy that means you know harm," the toyman said with a smile on his round face.

Emiya tilted his head at the man's archaic form of speaking and looked around.  He tilted his head as his keen eyes picked up that everything in here was exquisitely hand made.  There were no manufactured parts here.

He looked at the monkey and the monkey let out a small hiss before going back and chittering while playing with Tsumiko's hair.

"Everything looks hand made here," Emiya said as he looked back at the toymaker.

He nodded and said, "Yes yes, If it's No Blinsky, it's No Fun!"

[SINIB]

Tsumiko

Tsumiko pulled Archer by the hand, tugging on him. She took a tentative step forward, holding her shadow back from reflexively killing the monkey. "Let's-go!"

Despite it all, she still wanted to explore the store!

[Elf]

Emiya

He laughed and said, "Alright, let's look around."

As if Piccalo could sense her shadow, he screamed, leaped off her shoulder, and skittered back onto Blinsky's.  He bared his teeth and hissed at the girl and Blinsky frowned.  "A moment ago you were all chittering wanting to be in her hair, and now you are being fussy.  I do not want to put you in the back if you keep misbehaving," Blinsky said as he shook his finger at the monkey.

Emiya frowned for a moment and looked around.  There were a number of stuffed animals, but there were . . . odd ones.  There was one dressed as a dapper nobleman with fangs.  There was a werewolf as well.  Of course there were traditional teddy bears and birds.  There was even a set of plush ravens. 

[SINIB]

Tsumiko

The young girl seemed unperturbed by the-stranger-plushies. She ran straight towards the largest bear, pulling Archer with her. "Look, look!"

[Elf]

Emiya

The white haired man let Tsumiko pull him to the largest teddy bear.

Emiya studied it and said, "Well, it looks well made.  Here, how does it feel?"

He picked it up off the shelf and eyed the price tag.  His eyes widened as he thought, How does this man even stay in business?  This should be worth a good three times of what he's asking for.

Then he handed it to Tsumiko.

Tsumiko

Tsumiko took the bear, hugging it tightly. She buried her face in it, giggling. "It's great."

[Elf]

Emiya

"Then we'll get it," Emiya said with a grin.

Blinsky walked over and said, "Oh, this bear has a surprise!  Well, all of my plushes do, but this is splendid!"

He reached over and there was a hidden pouch in the bear's stomach.  He opened it and out spilled a collection of velvet plush organs attached to the bear. 

"See, hidden surprise!"

"Then we'll get it," Emiya said with a grin.

Tsumiko

Tsumiko pulled the bear away from him, glaring at the strange man with a pout. "Don't bully her!" She shouted, staring him down. Her grip on Archer's hand became painful, and her shadow began to pulsate in an agitated manner.

[Elf]

Emiya

Emiya didn't flinch when Tsumiko gripped his hand.  However he did frown at the shadows that were starting to pulsate around her.  He leveled his eyes at the shopkeeper and the man paled slightly under his steely gaze.

"I appreciate that you're showing off your craftsmanship, and as a fellow craftsman myself, I understand that you want to show your customer all the features of your product," Emiya said as he continued to stare the man down.

He gave Tsumiko's hand a slight squeeze and smiled at her before turning back to Blinsky.

"However, not all customers like to be walked through all the features of a product.  They like to discover them themselves," Emiya said in a low voice.

Blinsky nodded and said, "Ah, yes, I apologize, and I am sorry young miss.  I did not mean to offend."
