Chapter 142: Kuma.
The woman they called Yukimura seemed like a nice person, which is why it was a little alarming when her smile began to fade. Finn was already panic-stricken, so noticing the change in her expression only made things worse for him. It was only when the big guy gave a hasty explanation did he remembered that his MLP was exposed.
[Dante: Put your goddamn hood on.]
The message arrived just as the thought occurred to him, but the damage was already done. Tomato Head quickly took control of the situation and diverted Yukimura Nana’s attention, but then he turned around and dropped some heavy weights on him.
"Finn over there will help you set them up."
Finn almost opened his mouth to complain. Why was he being made to help with something he was entirely unrelated to? Also, just because he was good with tech didn’t mean he could handle just about anything. Those tablets looked so ancient that they might as well be made of clay.
[Jake: You should start looking up how to do it.]
[Finn: Shut up...]
He kept listening to the conversation even as he grumbled on the inside, and soon enough it felt like he was starting to get the story.
The place they were visiting was called the Owls’ Lantern, which served as the daycare, Kindergarten, and elementary school of the building it belonged to. Such places were always short on funds and that showed in their aging equipment or the lack thereof.
Tomato Head and his big friend volunteered to help fix some of those problems, and after obtaining a few things the facility was lacking, they were quick to bring them over. The big guy seemed to have a crush on Yukimura, the manager of the Owls’ Lantern, so his intentions were clear. But Tomato Head’s motivations were still unclear, and Finn refused to believe he was doing what he does out of the kindness of his heart.
After discussing the stuff contained within the white van, Yukimura invited them inside, saying that the kids would love to see them again. Though he complained earlier about having a job he needed to get to, Tomato Head was quick to accept the invitation, grabbing one of the crates and following after the manager.
