[Kisa-chan, so practical. Tonbokiri was hoping that she would wish for something that he might not be able to usually grant with his own strength, but if that's what she wants...
With a nod of acceptance he flicks the wand.]
Your wish is granted.
[Kind of. Like the other times he's done this quest (except perhaps for the yukimidaifuku?), something is a bit off with this.
What appears before them is a small log, singular, no longer than his hand, cheerfully decorated with pine boughs, tiny red berries, and a red-and-green striped ribbon.
Picking it up, he holds it out to her, laughter in his voice as he says,]
My apologies. Such is the way the town grants wishes.
[Although Tonbokiri is reasonably surprised by the huge leaf, he snatches it out of the air before it can fall down.
He looks at it, looks at Kisa-chan, and starts laughing brightly. The image of him under a leaf like this...!]
This is charming! [He holds the leaf so that it's sheltering him from the wind.] Ohh, pretty effective, as well. It might not last until spring, but I shall use it as long as I can.
I can tell, you did your very best, Kisa-chan. Thank you. [He reaches out to pat her gently on the head to show his gratitude.]
[ Well. He's still doing her way too many favors here, but she won't protest. She'll just figure out a way to thank him properly later, so she moves to do as instructed. ]

[ It's almost a waste to toss into a fireplace, but it makes Kisa smile as she reaches out to accept it. ]
... Thank you.

Then, offering her his twig 'wand' he asks,]
Would you like to try to be the Fairy?
no subject
[ Or magical. ]
no subject
You will be just fine. It is not a matter of being good or not, but rather of simply trying.
[The twig is still held out towards her.]
no subject
What... do you wish for, though?
no subject
[Considering the weather, a request comes to mind quickly enough:]
I wish for an umbrella, please. The one I have fell apart even further in the rain yesterday, so it would be very helpful to have a new one.
[[ooc: I leave it to you what goes 'wrong' with it!]]
no subject
[ And to her credit, Kisa does try incredibly hard. She even dramatically swishes the twig, and--
A massive leaf on a massive stalk comes fluttering gracefully down. It's at least the size of an umbrella??
... Hm. ]
... Ah.

[ Because it's. Still. A leaf. And she feels bad, but he's patting her head, so maybe he really doesn't mind it?? ]
no subject
It will. Here, come walk in front of me so I can shelter you from the wind, and we will continue on to get you your firewood.
[ooc: we can tie this one up in a little bit? Unless some slip-up happens along the way... XD]]
