Nonoka

Oh, Miyako-chan. Morning~

Miyako

Hello.

Nonoka

There's Maru-kun! Gotcha!

Gyaah!?

Nonoka

Morning to you too, Maru-kun~

L-Let go of meeee!

Nonoka

Okaaay.

*Sigh*... Honestly, you're such a handful.

Miyako

Nonoka-san, please don't be so rough with Maru-kun.

Nonoka

I wasn't being rough! I just gave him a nice, gentle hug!

That's exactly what I'm calling rough!

Nonoka

Come on, when you see something cute, don't you just want to squeeze it?

Miyako

I see. That explains it.

Nonoka

Exactly~

Nonoka

Hey, Miyako-chan. Are Maru-kun and Baru-kun friends?

Miyako

You mean Baru-kun, the character from Magilulu?

Nonoka

Yeah! I just thought they kind of look alike~

Miyako

Maru-kun was inspired by him, but he's a completely separate character.

Nonoka

Oh, I see~ They're both so cute!

Miyako

Naturally.

Nonoka

Do you like cute things, Miyako-chan?

Miyako

Yeah, I'd say so. I especially like things that are small and cute.

Miyako

Some are soft and pillowy, others plump and squishy... Even "cute" comes in different textures.

Miyako

There are all kinds of expressions too: big, round eyes, sharp little eyes, even adorably blank, dopey faces...!

Nonoka

Whoa, Miyako-chan, there's no stopping you.

Miyako

Just looking into their little eyes makes me happy...! Ah, my heart warms just thinking about them...!

Miyako

I want all the adorable things I've welcomed into my home to be just as happy as they make me...!

Nonoka

So your house is full of cute things?

Miyako

Of course! You can never have too many adorable things...!

Nonoka

Ohh~

Nonoka

Then what about Nono-chan?

Miyako

Hm?

Nonoka

Isn't Nono-chan cute too?

Nonoka

Would having me at home make your heart all warm and fuzzy?

Miyako

Huh...?

Nonoka

...!

Miyako

You have a certain... intensity, so it's not quite the same.

Nonoka

Whaaaat!? Whyyyy!?

Miyako

Just because.
