Misaki Why

[monkeyblue]

Who: Fushimi, Yata, everyone at their temple, and anyone the idiot hothead punk would invite to a pizza-and-gaming 'party' for Fushimi.
When: November 7th
Where: Xihe's Temple
What: Fushimi remembered his birthday is on November 7th. He told Yata.

Closed to Misaki

[Fushimi actually went to sleep at a decent hour, so he's sprawled over their bed sound asleep when the sun is rising instead of grumbling about only getting two hours of sleep that night before the sun rose.]

General Shenans

[So after getting his "present" (a cat, really Misaki?) from his over-excited boyfriend (who also got himself a cat because Misaki is weak), Fushimi really doesn't know what to expect for the rest of the day.

What to expect is, apparently, pizza, games, and people he vaguely knows being invited to come over? What the fuck is this?

Still, Fushimi is going to be nice and be social for a few hours so Misaki doesn't sulk at him. Poke the birthday boy, poke people coming to poke the birthday boy, Chikusa you are not invited, Judar stop threatening the cats.]

Comments

[monkeyblue]

Both--

[Misaki what the fuck.]

You got me two cats?!

[thevanguard]

[ Yata just sighs and slides off the bed to go open the door.

Immediately there is a flying ball of yellow fur launching for the bed, because there is a new person to investigate and they smell like bacon. He pauses to knead at Saru's knees, purring madly as he sniffs at the edge of the tray before meowing plaintively.

The second cat slips in with less fanfare, winding around Yata's ankles instead in greeting, giving a quiet mew and earning a scratch behind the ears as he leans over to pet him with a grin. ]

Well. I meant to just get one. But then I couldn't decide and they were both kinda cute and needed homes, so...

Yeah. I might have gotten us two cats.

[monkeyblue]

[Fushimi just stares at the cats as Misaki brings them in, only vaguely aware of the one at his tray.]

Cats.

[thevanguard]

[ He casts him a look when that's all that Saru says. ]

....yeah?

[ And then he freezes, looking momentarily horrified. ]

You're not allergic or anything, right? I mean, I've seen you pet a cat before, it was actually kinda cute, but it's... That's not a problem, right?

[ Yata, maybe you should have made sure of that before bringing the cats home? ]

[monkeyblue]

No, I'm not allergic--no. Back off.

[He picks up his plate of bacon and frowns at the orange ball of excitement.]

Just. Why a cat?

[thevanguard]

Why not a cat?

[ He relaxes again at that reassurance. ]

I mean, they're not a hassle like a dog would be, they pretty much take care of themselves. And I thought they'd be good company. Besides. [ He moves to the bed to pluck up the orange cat before he can make a second pass at Saru's plate, dangling him in front of him. ] They're cute. And fun.

[monkeyblue]

And take work and have litter boxes.

[Which is really his only issue, honestly. Litter boxes stink.

He looks at the orange one as he's dangled. His lady friend finally hops up on the bed.]

....the orange one looks like you.

[thevanguard]

I've got the litter boxes handled, it's fine, I don't mind doing that part.

[ Yata glances down at the cat he dangles. The cat stretches up to bat at his hat. ]

Huh? It does?

[monkeyblue]

Mhm. Loud, redhead, and demanding.

[thevanguard]

Hey! [ His indignant protest turns into laughter when a claw snags in the fabric of his beanie and drags it down over his eyes instead. Rescuing it, he promptly deposits the cat on the bed once more. ]

See if I help rescue your breakfast again. You're on your own.

[monkeyblue]

[Fushimi chuckles as the cat gets Misaki's beanie.]

Why cats?

[thevanguard]

Why not cats? [ He shrugs before shooting Saru a sheepish grin. ] I thought you'd like cats. [ .... ] Do you like cats?

[monkeyblue]

I don't dislike cats. But why?

[thevanguard]

Why what? [ Yata blinks at him, not sure he understands why Saru keeps asking. ]

[monkeyblue]

Why did you get me a pet? Why a pet?

[thevanguard]

Technically, I got us pets. [ He feels like this is a valid point to make as he hedges around the answer, scratching at his cheek. He's still worried Saru might get mad about the whole thing. ] And I thought, since this place was ours together here now... It might help it be livelier. And help you not get... I dunno, lonely, if I wasn't here when you were doing your work. Or when you were up at night.

[monkeyblue]

...you got my anti-social ass a cat because you don't want me getting lonely?

[Give him a moment to process that, please.]

[thevanguard]

[ Yata just points at the pair of cats that are already investigating their New Person very intently. ]

They don't even care that you're anti-social, see?

[monkeyblue]

I also don't get lonely.

[Which is a lie, of course, but it's Fushimi. He does that.

He also reaches over to pick up and inspect the black cat.]

Did you even get the sex of the cats?

[thevanguard]

She's a girl. [ Yata answers, gesturing at the black and white cat, who immediately starts purring and cuddles close when picked up by Saru, clearly approving of this plan. ] The orange one's a boy. And don't worry, they're both fixed, we're not gonna have to worry about kittens. I figured two was a big enough surprise to spring on you already.

[ Also he's not touching the 'lonely' comment because he's pretty sure it's against the rules to argue with someone on their birthday. And Saru is obviously Wrong. ]

[monkeyblue]

[Oh alright then he is being cuddled by a cat. What is his life.]

...well, at least it's not birds or another horse.

[thevanguard]

I thought a bird would be too noisy. And a horse wouldn't fit inside here.

[ He had given this a lot of thought, after all. ]

[monkeyblue]

...you seriously thought about both of them, didn't you.

[thevanguard]

Dude. I thought about everything. Fish are boring and dogs need walked and there's a bunch of little pets but I didn't think they'd be as good company as something that could just come crawl on your lap or something.

[monkeyblue]

[Fushimi can't help the small smile.]

You can think?
