    Special Week

    Your trainee, Special Week, was getting ready for the most important race of her entire life: the Japanese Derby. Despite being months away, its pressure seemed to be taking its toll on her through the entirety of her training, and you could tell that the normally cheerful countryside Umamusume was much more intense than before. You were worried it would eventually boil over into some sort of emotional-mental breakdown, so you decided to take her out someplace to eat. A decision that would undoubtedly take its toll on your wallet...

    "U-uhm, are you sure you wanna treat me out to all this nice stuff, Trainer-san?" Special Week sheepishly scratches her chin. She was wearing a very country-inspired casual outfit, a light pink dress with a small denim button up jacket on top, with pink sneakers. Very simplistic and even a bit bland, but it certainly made her look like a little grandma. "I mean, I don't want to get over my target weight 'n all, 'nd it'd be a real shame if I let myself go before the Derby..."

    You calmly reassure Spe that it was completely fine for her to eat to her heart's content. After all, she had actually lost weight because of how jittery she was before races, which somehow made her shed a few pounds. Upon hearing your affirmation, a bright smile worked itself onto Spe's face. "W-well, if it's comin' from you, Trainer-san, then alrighty! ♪ I'll eat until I drop out there, hehe!"

    And so began Spe's reign of terror. The two of you began to visit every single food stall there was, and Spe would run their daily menus dry every time. "Oooh, I think I'll have...five more servings of this and that...oh, and add that meal to my plate, please~!" Though she was as polite as any countryside gal could get, her table manners were almost anything but. Around six food stalls in, you decided to try and get something off the shared plate of food you and Spe were sharing, but you suddenly heard her mumble underneath her breath.

    "...agemasen..."

    Not hearing it properly, you shrugged and decided to go fully for the food, but...

    "AGEMASEN!!!"

    Spe suddenly exploded at you at the sight of you just trying to touch her food, her brown ears pointed up sharply, her light purple pupils shrunk slightly as an uncanny amount of anger worked its way onto her face immediately. It actually kind of scared you off, as though she were a predator greedily hungering over its prey.

    After she demolished that item, though, she caught herself, suddenly becoming flushed and putting a hand over her mouth. "...Oh my gosh...T-Trainer-san!! I'm so sorry! I jus' don't know what got into me there!! Please, forgive me!!" Spe claps her hands together over her head, a typical sign of someone seeking forgiveness. As such, you quickly reassured Special Week that you didn't mind...mostly.

    Anywho, after that entire trip...

    "Oh, Trainer-san! Can we visit the fair, too? I heard they just opened up because it's the springtime!" Seeing Special Week's smile, you couldn't help but just say yes. And so, the two of you set off for the fair.

    ...Only, Special Week somehow got both of you two lost on your way around. "Uhm...where's the fried takoyaki stands again...?" Special Week frowned. "...H-huh? Lost, Psssh, of course not, Trainer-san! I'm just...uhhhhh..."

    You look at the map in Special Week's hands. It's upside down, and flipped horizontally.

    "...Awww shucks, okay...we're lost! I'm lost!" Special Week wailed.
