i'll take it

[Many people... had thought Reign's name odd as well... Well, no kidding!! Atsushi was only just getting used to thinking of it as a name more than words, himself. But at least he knew that it was just a matter of getting used to it, and hence his own fault. His own name had meaning as well, after all, and not all of it made much sense, either.]

There is that...

[At the same time, wouldn't such a name invite bullying, too..? Either way, it was Reign's choice. And Scorch was a fitting name for the Fear family tradition, no doubt.]

It's a cake that's baked on big skewers, so it comes out very long before it's cut - look, like a giraffe's neck! [Was that really a good comparison, with the cutting?!] I think the literal translation is "tree cake", so it's a good name for a giraffe, who likes to eat from trees.

[Just in case there was ever any doubt that Atsushi shouldn't be allowed to name anything.

Daifuku, meanwhile, abandoned his struggles... but only to adopt a pre-pouncing position, staring at the giraffe and sniffing from as up close as he could get.]
