>Roar~
>I'm gonna eatcha~
>Uwah!
>Serval-chan!
>Don't eat me!

>What book are you reading today?
>Ah, this...

p3
>It's a book of ceremonies.
>Ceremonies?
>Yeah.
>They're special things humans do when they decide they want to do something together.
>I don't really get it, but it sounds fun!

>Ah!

>Hey, what's this?
>This...
>It says "marriage ceremony".

>I wonder what a "marriage" is...
>Do you know, Lucky-san?

>A marriage is a vow of love between two humans. Although certain pairs of animals may also be considered to be married.
>Love... What's that?
>It's hard to describe in a single word, but it appears to represent important feelings for someone besides yourself.

p4
>Mya...
>Mya...

>Kaban-chan!

>Let's do it too!
>A marriage ceremony!

>Eh...
>EEEEH~~~~!!?

p5
>W-
>We can't, Serval-chan.
>Because we're...
>Myaaa!
>You don't want to do it, Kaban-chan!?
>Th-
>That's not what I meant...

>Wanting to get married means wanting to get along with someone forever, right?
>I want to get along with you forever, Kaban-chan!
>I want to make that promise!

>Serval-chan...

p6
>A marriage ceremony?

>You don't know, professors?
>About this marriage ceremony, thing?
>S-
>Serval-chan.
>Don't look down on us.
>We know what a wedding ceremony is.
>It's just...
>That's right!

>And so
>I want to gather up as many Friends as possible!
>Listen when someone's talking to you.

>Honestly.

p7
>We're busy, y'know?
>Very busy.
>We're tidying up the wreckage from the Cerulians
>and looking after these books for Kaban, who is undergoing medical care....
>I-I guess so...
>Sorry...
>But when you think about it
>I wanted to tell everyone what kind of Friend I am...
>I thought this'd be a good chance...

>So I'm asking as well!

>What should we do, Professor?
>Let's see...
>Well, I suppose we can let PPP host it...
>Hmm...

p8
>By the way, at marriage ceremonies
>you can eat all kinds of cooking!

>U-
>Understood.
>We'll do it...
>>drool...
>Alright!
>Good for you, Serval-chan!

p10
>That marriage ceremony was fun!
>It was!

>Thank you for the present, too!
>Hehe~n
>Did I surprise you?
>Yeah.

>And so...
>Serval-chan...
>I...

>Actually, maybe we should take this outside...
>So this is where you two were.

p11
>The marriage ceremony isn't over yet.
>Umywa!?
>In fact, it's only just begun.

>You wait here, Kaban.
>Eeeh?
>Serval, you're coming with us.
>Myaaa~~~

>Uwaaaaaah! Kaban-chaaaaaaaaan!
>Serval-chaaaan!

p12
>Kaban-chan!
>Ah.

>S-...

p13
>Ehehe...
>H-
>How do I look?
>Serval-chan...!

>You look so pretty!
>Thanks, Kaban-chan!
>I think they call it a "dress"?

>The professors prepared it for me!
>It's far from a genuine dress, but...
>We used the finest fabric from the lodge.
>I think they called it a "curtain".

p14
>Well then, let's begin.

>We'll begin with the exchange...
>Exchange?
>It's when you give gifts to each other.
>Eh?
>But I haven't brought anything?
>Well, you're giving her that boat, right, Serval?

>How about you, Kaban?
>Do you have something you want to give to Serval?
>Ah...

>Alright, I'll give her this...
>Eh?
>You sure?
>Yeah. Please accept it.
>Yay!

p15
>Well then, Serval and Kaban.
>Do you vow to take each other
>in sickness and in health, in good times and bad times,
>to devote yourselves to each other until death do you part?

>...?
>Hmmm...

>I don't get it!
>All you have to do is truthfully say "yes"...
>What a mess.

>Do you make this vow, Kaban?
>With Serval-chan...
>I...

p16
>I do!

>Very well.
>Well then, the last step...

>Is to seal your vow with a kiss.
>Eh?
>Eeeeeeh!!?
>Mya?
>What's a "kiss"?

>E-Erm... A kiss is... well... erm...
>A kiss is when you press your lips against each other.
>Ah.
>That's what it means!

p17
>Here.
>Go ahead.

>...

>W-We're seriously gonna do it in front of the professors...?
>At least save it for when we're alone...

>Of course. There's no meaning if you don't do it before us.

>Come here,
>Kaban-chan.

p18
>..Al-

>Alright...

p19
>Haaaaaaaah

>That was incredibly embarrassing...
>You think so?
>I was really happy!

>Me too...
>I was happy.
>But...
>to do that in front of others...

p20
>UMYAAAA
>Fweh?

>D-
>Don't...
>Geez~
>I'm not gonna eat you!

>Hey!
>Let's sleep together tonight!

>Okay...

p21
>Ehehe
>This crib is so warm.
>Yeah.
>It's all thanks to Beaver-san and Prairie-san...
>And clinging onto you like this feels so calming.
>Yeah...

p22
>Serval-chan.
>I'm
>going to search for other humans outside of this island.

>I want to show even more gratitude to everyone in the park
>so I'll search for humans.
>Yeah.
>I'll find more fun and delicious things.
>Yeah.

>And then
>I'll definitely come back.

p23
>Kaban-chan.
>What is it, Serval-chan?

>I want to kiss some more...

>Is that okay?

>Alright.

>Come here.

p25
>Mmya...

>What is it?

p26
>Shh.

>Follow me.

>Hey.
>Where are we going?

>Keep this a secret from Kaban-san, okay?

p27
>Ah!

>This is the bus!
>What's it doing here?
>Raccoon-san said she wanted to follow after Kaban-san.
>I couldn't exactly let her go off on her own.

p28
>Even with all the water and Japari Buns
>I think we've still got room for one more?

>B-
>But Kaban-chan's going by herself...
>She never told you not to follow her, did she?

>Raccoon-san and I
>are gonna follow her regardless.

p29
>If you want to go after her, Serval,
>then all you have to do is go after her, right?

>Okay.
>I'm heading off.

p30
>Okay, I'm in your care!
>Leave it to us!!
>Alrighty~

p31
>I'll follow you forever!

p32
>Kaban-chan!
