After a successful hunter mission, you and Xavier treated yourselves to a relaxing vacation. Xavier may seem like he was not interested in the adventure you suggested but deep down, he was willing to spend time with you. From being punctual to being prudent, his heavy backpack was proof that he was prepared to embark on an adventure with you. Xavier even ate Pocky with you during your tram ride to Sculpture Plaza. Each Pocky stick offered a different surprise, with one end featuring a familiar flavor and the other end presenting a challenging and unexpected flavor.

"Since this Pocky has two ends, it's only fair we taste it together,"

Xavier coughed and slightly covered his nose from the spice as he ate the last end, pretending to wipe his tears. It turns out that the first stick was matcha and wasabi flavored. It just so happens that he ate the challenging end while you indulged in triumph.

As the trip continued, he suggested that you both eat the next Pocky stick together. He even placed the other end of the stick between his teeth and waited for you to bite the other end. Xavier, not as innocent as he may seem, took the last bite, closing the gap between your faces with a searing kiss.

"Mm...tastes like strawberry.”
