Kofuku + Smuggler
There was a llama in the living room.
The creature sat in front of Kofuku, head raised high and regal, its legs perfectly still, stretched out so that its foot rested in Kofuku's hand. Between the two of them were at least a dozen bottles of sparkle nail polish. Were Daikoku not stunned by the presence of the llama, the polka-dots and flowers painted on its long llama toenails would have been a point of interest.
As it was, he stood frozen in the doorframe, his shadow slowing stretching across the room. "Kofuku. Where did the llama come from?"
Suddenly, odd news stories Daikoku had read and forgotten popped up in his head. Not long ago, a llama had been running loose in the imperial gardens, and a week later, another llama appeared out of nowhere on a shinkansen platform in Osaka. Its ear tag brought it back its owner all the way in Sapporo. People were perplexed at how it had traveled so far unnoticed. Now, Daikoku suspected he'd found a smuggler.
"I found him on the side of the road. Isn't he adorable?!" said Kofuku, curls bouncing. "All done with the left foot, handsome boy! Do you wanna strawberry?"
The llama made a llama sound. Kofuku grabbed a strawberry from a bowl beside her and popped it in the llama's mouth.
