[ Relieved to hear that Ayaka is fine, Yoimiya's heart is at ease... not that she needs to worry since she's in good hands with Cloud right by her side. Even if this was a competition, he still placed Ayaka's needs above his own and for that, she considers the two of them winners in their own right. She happily hops off Tartaglia's back, her feet land on the grass with a slight PLOP, she also opts to give the other pair time to themselves, not wanting to interrupt their precious moment. ]

It was a thrilling race from start to finish! If we decide to do this again, I have a feeling the next time will be even more of a close call

[ She nods in agreement to Tartaglia's suggestion. This entire evening has been a blast and she'd love the chance to do this in the future. Winding down after all the hustle and bustle sounds like the perfect way to end this double date. ]

Of course! We have a really tasty Snezhnayan dessert that I think the two of you will enjoy.

[ Aaaaand, she's off! With a pep in her step, Yoimiya starts heading back to the house to get the dessert nice and ready. ]
