[Atsushi can't turn out a request for help! Even if the little Conductor kami is kind of rude... In a way, she's charming??? is a word that also means 'forgivingly annoying?' He's trying to think nice thoughts, okay?
He's also doing his best to assist with the train. To start, Atsushi walks around the train with a notepad and makes a list of everything that might need fixing or cleaning before the train is ready to go.
It's a lot.]
Do we replace the seat cushions..? The wood looks rotten... There's rust on the poles. The windows are broken. The exterior needs new paint... [He looks at the list and groans,] Can we really do this?
III. Cursed Ice Cream : Bad Luck
[When Atsushi finishes a popsicle and sees 'bad luck' on the stick, he doesn't think much of it. That sort of thing isn't real, after all! It's just a childish game.
But then his walk back to ADA involves a bucket of water falling on his head, sprinklers turning on and soaking him again, and a glitter bomb when he checks ADA's mailbox. He's now a wet and sparkly cat, standing in front of the mailbox with a tired look on his face.]
How... Why..? [He sighs,] I can't go inside like this. I'll track glitter and water. And be the one who has to clean it.
[So if you don't find him standing in front of the mailbox then you might instead find Atsushi sitting on a nearby bench and waiting to dry off.]
