I just noticed some things while I was playing ttof that were really cute to me. I hadn't really paid attention to the player's study area, but I noticed some stuff:

So one, there's swallow bun's plant pot!

Two, there's Mugwort Riceball's kite!

Three, there's Donkey Roll's post cards and a peak hour flyer!

Four, a cute bed for Wu Lu!

Five, and this was super cute to me, a picture of (what looks like) Harbin Fried Pork!

This is all of what I noticed right off and just from what I remembered seeing else where, lol. I love this because 1. I love little details like this in games and 2. It just really shows how much the MC loves their boys and vice versa! It's so sweet to me!

THE TALE OF FOOD

LAMB PAOMO - STORY #1

━

MUGWORT RICEBALL : Baa-a. Baa-a.

LAMB : Baa. Baaa.

MUGWORT RICEBALL : Heheh. The lambs are singing with me. They seem very happy, and that makes me happy too!

MUGWORT RICEBALL : Master, Lambert! I'm heading over there with the lambs~

LAMB PAOMO : Hahah! Don't stray too far, Mugwort Riceball!

LAMB PAOMO : Master, are you tired? Do you need some water?

LAMB PAOMO : Heh! Thanks to the Universal Formation, I can let my flock graze here. They really like the alfalfa grown in this place.

HANGZHOU NOODLES : Hey! Both of you must stop this lovey dovey stuff at once!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : Lambert, you told me that your home is nearby right? Take me there at once! I need rest! I wouldn't have come to this place if not for my desire to study the flour-based cuisine of the north.

LAMB PAOMO : My home? This is it!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : Do you think I'm blind? I see nothing but grass and a few trees. And your goats. Where is the house?

LAMB PAOMO : House? I don't have a house!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : What?! You spent ages at this place and didn't even bother building a house? Geeze, you're poor!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : You're a Food Soul! Fine, you might not make a fortune out of that, but can't you sell some Lamb Paomo or start a food franchise?

LAMB PAOMO : Poor? I'm actually pretty content with what I have...

LAMB PAOMO : Look! The sky is my roof and the grass is my mattress. My home is HUGE!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : Yeah, keep feeling good about yourself. Imagine living out your days like this...

OPTION 1 : "With A Jug Of Water, A Whip, And A Flock Of Sheep" LAMB PAOMO : Indeed! It's exactly as you've said, Master! I prefer a simple and carefree life! LAMB PAOMO : I think living this way is comfortable enough and free from any shackles!

OPTION 2 : "Sounds pretty romantic." LAMB PAOMO : Master, what you said just made me blush! LAMB PAOMO : It's not really romantic, and I don't really know what it means to be romantic! LAMB PAOMO : I just feel that a simple and carefree life is what makes me comfortable and happy!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : Hmph! When you start making a fortune, you'll never think that way again!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : But I don't think you'll ever enjoy a life of wealth!

HANGZHOU NOODLES : Forget it! You don't look smart enough to understand...I'll just go rest over there. Don't bother me unless something comes up!

LAMB PAOMO : Master, let's go rest over there as well! We should find a place with plenty of sun and take an afternoon nap.

-

LAMB PAOMO : Hmm. This place won't work...

-

LAMB PAOMO : This won't work either...

The youth tried laying down at many different places while mumbling to himself. I had no idea what he was trying to do. The youth finally smiled with great satisfaction after lying down on a particular patch of grass.

LAMB PAOMO : Heh! This is it!

LAMB PAOMO : Master, I know you're used to soft mattresses so lying on the grass may not be too comfortable. I tried a few places and this patch has the softest grass that won't prick at all!

LAMB PAOMO : Come! Try it out!

OPTION 1 : "I guess I'll try." LAMB PAOMO : What do you think? Is it as soft as a spring mattress? To be honest, I was really surprised when I laid on a spring mattress for the first time. I felt as though I was being sucked into it. LAMB PAOMO : I originally thought there was a Universal Formation within the mattress trying to suck me to somewhere else!

OPTION 2 : "You remind me of Dumpling." LAMB PAOMO : Oh! That's exactly what Dumpling did when he played pranks on the Food Demon! LAMB PAOMO : Ah... LAMB PAOMO : Ah! Sorry! I was not trying to say that you're a Food Demon, Master! LAMB PAOMO : No food Demon would look as nice as you!

LAMB PAOMO : ...

LAMB PAOMO : Master, get closer to me! I need to talk to you!

LAMB PAOMO : Actually, Hangzhou Noodles said I'm poor. But I actually do own entire hills of gold and silver!

LAMB PAOMO : Take a look at the hill slopes basked in the sun! All the leaves have turned gold! Heheh! That's my golden hill!

LAMB PAOMO : Once night descends and the stars rise to the sky, we will be seeing heavenly lamps shining brighter than gemstones...

LAMB PAOMO : And the hill slopes will assume a beautiful silvery coat, and turn into my hills of silver.

LAMB PAOMO : Oh, when night comes, perhaps we can watch the stars together at the hill slope, Master! We did that before at Kongsang, right?

LAMB PAOMO : Let's see if the stars here shine brighter than those in Kongsang!

The afternoon breeze swept across the pastures. The bed of grass was soft and warmed by the sun. It gave off a strong, sweet smell. The breeze, the smell of grass it brings, and the sound of the youth formed a warm, cozy current that swept across me. It was a comfortable feeling that immersed my soul and body...

??? : Lambert, Master~ Wake up! It's time to wake up!

??? : Are you going to keep sleeping?

??? : Whoah! What are you trying to do, Hangzhou Noodles? ??? : Baaaa--!!

THE TALE OF FOOD

DONGPO PORK STORY #1

━

MUGWORT RICEBALL : Ah, Brother Harbin Fried Pork! Come and check on Master. She's acting all weird!

MUGWORT RICEBALL : I was going to invite Master to go on a field trip... But Master kept ignoring me and would only scribble random stuff on paper while laughing...

MUGWORT RICEBALL : Should we call Dr. Dumpling?

HARBIN FRIED PORK : Hah, what a creative way to annoy Food Souls. What are you drawing...

HARBIN FRIED PORK : I smell wine! Master, where did you get something like that?!

OPTION 1 : Push him away HARBIN FRIED PORK : Master, please pull yourself together. You smell like you only had a little bit of wine. Is that enough to make you attack your butler? OPTION 2 : Hug him HARBIN FRIED PORK : That was close. Good thing I learned how to dodge from that sparring session with Dezhou a few days ago.

MUGWORT RICEBALL : Hm? Master isn't drawing, but is writing something.. "Dongpo Pork's Welcoming Party Plan"? What's this? I don't get it.

HARBIN FRIED PORK : Are you getting ready to welcome the new Food Soul? I'm touched that you're putting in so much effort.

HARBIN FRIED PORK : But the Food Soul that you wish to welcome has been arrested by the Kongsang Office. I believe he's waiting for you to bail him out. Please come with me. And use this chance... to sober up.

━

DONGPO PORK : I didn't drink! I'm serious! Hey, I've told you this so many times. I love drinking! If I really drank, I would never deny it!

DONGPO PORK : Stop using that weird looking box to nose around my body. I'm Dongpo Pork, and my body always smell like wine!

DONGPO PORK : Plus, rather than keeping me hostage here, why don't you help me catch the wine thief?! It took me a long time to brew that jar of Luofu Brew!

GAN LING LONG : Haha, what's up with this Food Soul? He's so talkative despite being sober. Imagine what he'd be like when he drinks!

KU WU : Tape, rags, or a gag. Gan Ling Long, choose one and give us some peace and quiet.

Just as he finishes his words, the door of Kongsang Detention Center is slammed open.

MUGWORT RICEBALL : FBI! Drop your weapons and put your hands up!

MUGWORT RICEBALL : You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law!

OPTION 1: We shouldn't have installed TV in Kongsang. HARBIN FRIED PORK : There are many things that you cannot do in Kongsang. One of them is charging into the Kongsang Office with the drunken Master and the troublemaker Mugwort Riceball. OPTION 2 : I'm here to save you, Dongpo Pork. DONGPO PORK : Master! I'm glad that you're here... Hm? Why is your face all flushed? You look like you’ve been drinking.

HARBIN FRIED PORK : Lords Envoy of Five Flavors, just in case you have trouble recognizing her, let me do the introduction. This red-face lady is the Master of Kongsang. She is here to bail Dongpo Pork out.

HARBIN FRIED PORK : What crimes did Dongpo Pork commit to have ended up here?

KU WU : He breached the Kongsang Prohibition Regulations.

GAN LING LONG : Since the introduction of Kongsang Prohibition, brewing, selling, or drinking wine in public are all prohibited! We found this Food Soul lying underneath a tree. He was so drunk. Even now, he still reeks of wine!

DONGPO PORK : Ever since I was born, I've been by Sir Zizhan's side. Drinking, traveling, feasting, and writing poems are normal to us. That's why I always have the fragrance of wine. This isn't enough proof to arrest me!

DONGPO PORK : As for brewing... I hid the wine jar in the cellar, and I've never publicized it in any way! Who knows which hungry kitten managed to steal a sip of it. That jar of Luofu Brew is extremely strong. One sniff, and you can stay drunk for three days!

MUGWORT RICEBALL : The cellar? Master went to check the amount of pickles we had in the cellar. And then, Master came back like this!

KU WU : ...Looks like all the evidence is here, and the culprit who stole the wine got caught by Harbin Fried Pork too. Master's salary will be deducted this month.

OPTION 1 : I'm an adult! DONGPO PORK : Hahaha, Master, I heard that in your world, you can drink as much as you want so long as you are of age! When I get out, we can "drink to our hearts' content"! OPTION 2 : I'm almost an adult! DONGPO PORK : Hm, wine may be nice, but you shouldn't over drink! Wait a few more years, Master. When the time comes, we can "celebrate the beauty of youth with poems and wine"!

The two Envoy of Five Flavors look at each other startled.

GAN LING LONG : As per the regulations of Kongsang, with our cute Master here bailing him out, he can go back to Kongsang anytime!

GAN LING LONG : However, there will still be punishments! After all, one strike might be an accident, but two strikes will be treated as a taunt!

GAN LING LONG : Here, take this. This is Mr. Dongpo Pork's list of punishments! DONGPO PORK : No drinking... for an entire month?!
