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

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?

[thevanguard]

The only reason you're not getting thwapped right now is you're holding a cat. And maybe because it's your birthday. but don't think that mean's I won't punch you later.

[monkeyblue]

What if I'm holding the cat later?

[thevanguard]

I will rescue the cat and then punch you.

[monkeyblue]

[Fushimi, completely deadpan, picks up the cat and holds her in front of his face.]

Nyan.

[thevanguard]

[ Yata just sputters because did you just... did that actually just happen. ]

I take it back. They're my cats. You can't have them.

[monkeyblue]

No, I'm keeping this one.

[Just because he's contrary.]

...Fuku.

[thevanguard]

Isn't that...? That one's the girl. Isn't that usually a boy's name?

[ Yata squints, but it's not like he really cares one way or another. ]

Still. She is pretty cute, huh? [ He reaches out, scratching her ears affectionately.

The orange cat, deciding he wanted his share of the attention, promptly headbutts against Yata's arm, making him laugh and reach to scoop him up once more. ]

Then we just have to think of a name for this one.

[monkeyblue]

Isn't Misaki usually a girl's name?

[Or: shut up about his naming choices, Misaki.]

Toshi. He looks just like you.

[thevanguard]

[ Yata just sticks his tongue out at him because he's sensitive about that, dammit. ]

No one calls me that but you, anyway.

But Toshi, huh? [ He holds the orange cat up to meet his gaze, getting a rather loud meow and a paw batting at his hat once more. ] Heh. I think he likes it.

[monkeyblue]

Pretty sure he just likes your hat.

[thevanguard]

What can I say? It's an awesome hat. [ Yata just grins cheekily. Then he settles Toshi back in his lap, absently scratching his stomach while the cat squirms and purrs, and glances over at Saru again. ]

So it's... okay?

[monkeyblue]

As long you do litter duty.

[thevanguard]

[ He gives a playful salute at that. ]

I can handle that part of it. It won't be a problem. I promise.

[ He wants to ask if Saru likes them, but maybe it's better to give Saru some time to figure that out for himself first. Besides, from the way he's still cuddled up with Fuku, maybe Yata already has his answer. ]
