This booth is shabby and not well decorated, but it's neat and solidly constructed from planks of different sizes. Obviously it's someone's pet project. At the back of the booth a large stuffed dummy is pinned to the wooden wall. It's lumpy and misshapen and has a sign that says "TITAN" hanging around its neck, just in case you're not sure what it is.
A low table below the dummy is loaded with prizes, some obviously better than others. A large hand-painted sign hangs next to the dummy with a list of the prizes to be won.

A tall blond man leans against the side of the booth. His clothes are clean but worn and patched in places. He smiles as you approach and straightens up. "Want to try to win a prize? It's easy, really. You just throw a dart at the Titan there and try to kill it. Everybody wins something, so why not try?"
He coughs. "Only I'd appreciate it if you didn't actually try to kill it. My sister sewed it, and she'll be sad if it gets torn to bits."

Prizes/Rolls
1: Neck
You hit the Titan in its most vulnerable spot! Good job! You get an adorable cuddly Titan doll to take home. What, you don't like it? Well don't tell my sister, she worked hard on these. Move along now, buddy.
Prize: Adorable Cuddly Titan Doll
2: Head
IN. THE. FACE. Pretty close! I guess you can have a doll too, only this one isn't as good as the titan doll. I think it's supposed to be a dog, or maybe a rabbit.
Prize: Adorable Cuddly Something-Or-Other
3: Chest
Still pretty close, but I think you can do better. Maybe you should try again.
Prize: A flowerpot that's only slightly chipped. If you win another prize, maybe you can get a flower to put in it.
4: Belly
Not very close, but that's still gotta hurt. Good job!
Prize: A pretty flower, obviously freshly pulled from the dirt, with only one or two ants on it. You can pick those off.
5: Crotch
Ouch! Hey, this is a Titan, remember, not a regular dude. Nothing there! Try again!
Prize: A small rock with the words "PET ROCK" painted on the bottom.
6: Right Arm
Not very good, but I guess it's better than nothing.
Prize: A frequent noodle buyer card with half of the stamps filled in. It's your lucky day!
7: Left Arm
Keep trying, you'll get there! Don't you want to win one of these lovely dolls?
Prize: A bracelet made of string with a few wooden beads on it. Some of the beads are missing, but it's not half bad!
8: Right Leg
Are you even trying? Aim higher, aim higher!
Prize: A frayed napkin. You can use it to blot up your tears of failure.
9: Left Leg
You should probably try again, but I don't even know if you can be trusted to hold a dart.
Prize: A cheese coupon. Buy one piece of cheese, get one free! Amazing!
10: Feet
At least you hit it somewhere. Want to try again?
Prize: A hot noodle coupon, yum! Oh wait, this one's expired. Never mind.
Shun paused as he came upon a fairly odd sight. He tilted his head and turned towards the booth which appeared to have a large stuffed dummy on the wall. It was kind of a pitiful looking thing. There was the sign hanging around its neck, but that did him no good.
Thankfully, the one who ran the booth explained things. It was a titan. Okay. He supposed he could... see the resemblance. Not that he ever saw a real titan before. All he really knew was that they were essentially giant naked men as far as appearances went. His gaze flitted over to the various prizes that were laid out on the low table. There wasn't really much that caught his attention currently.
But...
The young man furrowed his brow, then shrugged. Eh. He might as well throw one while he was here. Though, he couldn't even say this was practice. He was pretty certain this wasn't anything like real titan slaying. Shaking his head, he picked up a dart and flung it at the titan, only to have it hit its leg.
His lips thinned for a moment, and he went to grab another dart. This time around, he actually took aim. The dart landed solidly in between the titan's eyes. Something that would be a fatal blow to humans... but it wasn't quite the same with the giants from what he had heard. How unfortunate.
Shun blinked down as he was given a stuffed kitten.
"...."
What the hell was he supposed to do with this?

"Wowow, you have good aim, mister!"
Apparently Cecilia had been standing off to the side, watching curiously at Shun's attempt to play. His second go had been pretty impressive, and seemed to betray a skill that she herself most definitely did not possess. Still, when there were cute plushies on the line, she couldn't not try, right?
Ever the eager one, she chirped out a bright hello to the man running the booth, asking if she could give it a go. Upon receiving her dart, Cecilia took a step back, screwing up her face in concentration as she stared at the titan dummy. Um...well it would probably be best if she aimed high, like for it's head or something, so--
--...that was not high enough, clearly. Staring blankly at the napkin, the girl promptly stuffed it in her pocket before reaching for another dart. Again!
"Good aim," Axel said encouragingly. So far, no one had managed to hit the Titan in the neck, and the dark-haired young man was the only one to win even one of the lumpy stuffed animals. It was too bad, really. Axel's sister had sewed up a whole heap of little mini Titan dolls. They were sitting in the corner, creeping him out with their little shiny button eyes. He was hoping he'd be able to give some away soon.
The winner of the kitten didn't look thrilled about it. He was looking at his napkin and his stuffed kitten like they were some kind of mysterious artifacts.
"What, not your favorite animal? You can swap it for a different one. I've got, um." Axel lifted up a couple of little dolls and squinted at them. "I'm pretty sure this one's a dog, and this one here's a duck. You look like the kind of guy that likes ducks, right?"

She was definitely going to win herself something cute, yup. She was no master of darts, but she was intent to get one of those plushies, so she was sure that her determination alone would hopefully be enough to eventually win her one. As she took aim this time, Cecilia felt like she had a good feeling about this try. Yup, this was the one that was going to do it, this was--
--...no, scratch that. Apparently she sucked at darts. On the bright side, uh...she managed to hit both legs now?
Blinking down at her cheese coupon, the piece of paper joined the napkin in her pocket before she promptly pushed up her sleeves. "One more time, please!"
Just on a whim, he picked up another dart, deciding that he'd try going for a kill shot. However, he ended up getting distracted as another came up to throw darts as well, and threw his into the foot of all places.
"I have no need for ah... any stuffed creature.." he blinked while looking down at the kitten thing he had won. It didn't really matter if it was a dog, duck, fish, or... whatever, really. And now he had a slip of paper! It looked like a coupon of sorts. He didn't really look too hard at it.
Tilting his head, he picked up another dart. He didn't want to spend too much time here. He'd give it one more shot to try and get the throat. Shun narrowed his eyes as he took aim before flicking the dart at the titan. This time around, it landed right in the neck.
A proper 'killshot'.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaasp.
"You're amazing, mister!" Cecilia beamed, staring up at him with admiration, "How do you aim so well? Whenever I try, it's like...well, let me show you."
Picking up yet another dart, the girl took aim at the neck before casually throwing it at the dummy. She expected for it to land in one of the legs--or even lower--only to stare in stunned silence as the dart actually lodged itself in the titan's neck.
...
"You must be a good luck charm," She said finally, looking up at Shun, "Because I can promise you that that definitely didn't happen the last two times I tried." Turning to the booth owner then, the small girl cheerfully threw her arms up into the air. "Look, mister! I did it!"

Axel handed over the creepiest cuddly Titan doll. It was vaguely teddy bear shaped, with big red felt teeth and shiny little button eyes. Definitely had that whole evil doll vibe going on. "Congratulations! I know you don't want stuffed creatures, but maybe you can stick pins in it or something."
He shrugged.
"Just don't give it back. That thing gives me the creeps."

Axel was about to suggest that the girl go get some cheese with her cheese coupon to regain her strength when she wound up and nailed the Titan right in the neck. He grinned. He had a bit of a soft spot for girls, especially ones as bright and pleasant as this one.
"Good job!"
He rummaged through the heap of stuffed dolls, picking out an extra-cuddly one. No creepy little teeth on this one, nope. He handed the doll over to the girl, bowing. "Nice throws, both of you."
Shun blinked at the titan doll, really uncertain what to make of it. The stuffed animal was one thing but a stuffed titan...? This thing was kind of disturbing.
Looking over towards the girl, he just sort of stared at her as she threw a dart into the neck as well.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with your aim," he noted. And so now he had a plush in each hand.
"Here. Take this. I have no need for it," he offered while tossing her the kitten one. She already had a titan so he didn't bother trying to hand that over. He'd... find something else to do with the titan. With a curt nod, he wandered off elsewhere.

Cecilia honestly looked much younger than her age of fifteen years when she reached out to take the offered titan doll, brown eyes wide and her lips spread into a delighted smile as she squished the thing to her chest in a tight hug. "Thank you very much!" Who knew that a titan could be so cute?
Loosening her hold on the plush just a little, she cast a fond glance down at it and was in the midst of figuring out a name when she suddenly heard the other man speak. The girl glanced up just in time to see the kitten plush coming her way, hastily reaching out to catch it before it could hit the ground. For a moment, she simply stared at it with wide eyes before promptly wrapping her arm around this new plushie as well, affectionately pressing her cheek against the top of the kitten's head.
"Thanks, mister!" She called after Shun before turning back to Axel, "And thanks again for the game--it was fun! I hope you have a nice day!"
With two plushies clutched to her chest now, Cecilia gave an awkward little wave before she brightly trotted away to do some more exploring.

Wandering like usual Cyril spotted an unusual stand. It wasn't well decorated but the prizes sure seemed to stand out looking at the large titan. He then looked at the strong- willed man running the stand. The man smiled and explained the game and gave a humorous remark about trying to kill the titan his sister sewed for the event.
Cyril smiled and simply said. "Heh, I know of someone like that myself."
He reached for a dart and threw it.
"Nghhh I overshot" Cyril said. When Cyril received his stuffed rabbit he stood there thinking about what he could do to improve his shot.
