Four sticks of Pocky laid out looks like the date: 11/11. So people buy a lot of Pocky on that day. Sometimes, they even play a game with it.
[it's fine, he can absolutely understand why this would sound weird to her, at least. even trying to explain it sounds weird, considering it's the sort of thing just ingrained in their cultural consciousness in japan.]
[She has no idea what she's about to get herself into tbh.
But she simply nods, taking a stick and putting the chocolate end in her mouth, holding it. Even after being here for a while, eating isn't all that exciting to her, but chocolate isn't bad at least.
[No, it's not a good situation, who would want to kiss an android!! THIS IS A HIGH STAKES SITUATION!!!!
But sadly for 2B, she doesn't have quite the foresight to think that far ahead about this. The rules sound simple enough, and frankly, the meaning and importance of gestures like physical intimacy has yet to really dawn on her. It's not something she's ever experienced for herself, after all. This should be an easy game, right?
Although she should probably check on if he even actually wants to play... She takes the pocky stick out to ask.]

[What kind of game could possibly involve a snack like Pocky... Wait.]
Is it a "food fight"? [She's trying here, okay.]

[he'll open one of the packages of pocky, offering her a stick.]
I'll show you how to play. First, you put one end of the biscuit in your mouth and hold it there.
