Happy Second Anniversary Buns

                                                     Orion was happy to be out and about in the town celebrating burrowgatorie’s birthday. He was looking for Shibani as they had gotten separated and he wanted to go to Hop’s rabbit hole. They had been around many places and were quite smashed at this point. Wondering if the other had headed over to the bar already he turns and starts staggering in that direction. Walking into Hop’s Orion sees Bani sitting at the bar chatting away.                    With a sigh the star studded bun walks over and sits at an empty stool. “Where were you,” he slurs slightly to the other. Bani turns and looks at Orion, “sorry I lost you and just came over.” The two chat for a bit before starting to buy each other shots. After a bit Hop walks over and looks down at them. “You two are officially cut off,” they say before taking the liquor away.                            Orion starts to protest but is quickly shut down by Hop’s. “No you're not getting anymore,” they state sternly. “Fine,” he slurs, turning to look at Bani. “Wanna go to the festival downtown and grab some street food?” The white bun turns to look at them and nods. The two get up after paying their tab and stumble towards the door. Hop’s just shakes their head as the two head out turning back to their work at the bar.                   Out the door and down the street the two meander singing and laughing as they go. Pedestrians are quick to dodge them as they stumble past without a care. It takes the two quite a bit in their drunken state to get to the festival. “Divide and conquer?” Orion asks Bani and receives a nod in affirmation. Splitting up with a plan to meet at the Taiyaki stall they both head to different sides to collect as much food as possible.         Orion looks around and smiles before stumbling over to his first stall. Looking up at the food he sees lots of different kinds of dango. Drooling slightly he looks over the selection. Making a choice he purchases a  yuzu, raspberry and peach dango. He quickly moves on to the next stall. There he finds a large assortment of mochi. He is quick with his pick this time as he grabs rosewater and milk mochi. Paying for it he quickly eats the milk mochi as he walks to the next stall.         Whilst he wanders from stall to stall he collects some popsicles, Macaroons, Tiramisu, pies and cinnamon buns. It doesn’t take him long after that to reach the Taiyaki stall and meet up with Bani. “I got a lot,” he says whilst walking up. Bani turns to look at him, “Which Taiyaki do you want,” the other asks. Orion looks up and ponders for a moment.”Red bean paste please,” he asks. The other hands the red bean paste taiyaki over and Orion is happy to take a big bite.         Savouring the taste he hums happily. Swallowing, he turns to the white bun who is also eating their taiyaki. “Wanna go find a place to sit,” he asks. The other nods with their mouth full and the two wander around till they find a seat. The two sit and divide their spoils between each other. As the two eat their drunkenness wears off slowly and they gain back their lively fervour.         Chatting loudly and happily the two finish up their treats and start wandering around looking for drinks. They spot a stand selling tea and head over with a pep in their step. “Welcome, welcome,” the bun at the stall calls. The two walk up and start perusing the menu. It doesn’t take much time for them to make their order. Orion gets a hot chai tea and Bani gets a hot green tea.        Noticing the time the two are shocked as it was almost time for the fireworks. Being tired and full they trek towards Bani’s place. They don’t quite make it but still find a place with a good view. As the fireworks go off they sit and watch Bani falling asleep next to Orion. The purple bun enjoys the fireworks not minding being used as a pillow. It doesn’t take long for Dan to show up to retrieve the white sloth bun. Orion says hello as Dan picks the sleeping bun up and nods to him. As they walk away Orion looks back up at the sky as the fireworks slowly come to an end. “A wonderful second anniversary,” he hums to himself. Standing up he slowly makes his way home.
