[Sometimes you are cute when you aren't being a literal junji ito spawn of satan!!]

I've never named anything before... [HE'S NOT PRACTICED AT THIS AND IT SEEMS LIKE AN IMPORTANT THING TO HAVE PRACTICE IN!! Nervewracking. He'll give this some consideration as he continues walking, holding the mongoose up to examine it again.]

Hm... Maybe Moko Moko? Because it's so soft and tiny and light!

[Literally naming this stuffed animal after the onomatopoeia for stuffed animals.]

Koko Moko Moko...

[WHY IS THIS NAME EVOLVING... But he'll just stick with Moko Moko wow. Can't believe he only gets to enjoy Moko Moko's company for a few days before he becomes the pink panther.]

I'm not gonna lose it! I take good care of my stuff, you know.

[His THREE WHOLE ITEMS THAT HE OWNS BACK HOME... A HAMMOCK, A BUBBLE WAND AND A SINGLE BOOK.]

[closes my eyes i hate it here]

That'd be really nice! I wanna take Pride's flower with me, too. [The one he wears to trials, god.] My friends would really like seeing both of them, probably!

[YEAH!!! I SAID IT!!

Also he looks genuinely a bit surprised by that, jesus.]


Really? They've been nice to me the whole time, though! Maybe other people just aren't giving them enough space? [THEY ARE LIKE A FUSSY CAT one must be grateful for the single pat they are allowed and then let them wander back off into the night...

That gets him to laugh, though.]


Makes sense, right? But some of us like a lot of human things, too! For some reason, that always seems to surprise people. [For some reason.] Like - I hate humans, but I still like people, sometimes. As individuals, they're really interesting! And they make a lot of good stuff. I love their books and movies, and they're good architects and problem-solvers. They can be pretty inspiring!

[tmw your official likes and dislikes in the fanbook both include humans. RELATIONSHIP STATUS WITH HUMANITY: IT'S COMPLICATED. As expected of a curse with his source.]

I can enjoy nature without any complicated or innate feelings, though, so I really like it a lot. It's probably the same for them.

[ME, POINTING AT ROYCE, WHO'S BASICALLY A RACCOON WITH THE PERSONALITY OF A STRAY CAT.]

Hah, wow - not a single one? That's pretty unique. [He actually sounds like he means it genuinely, too. He's not sure if he believes it - but a lot of the people here are outliers to what he's come to expect, anyway.

He holds a hand briefly, palm flat, like he's catching some rain in the cradle of it.]


What's your favorite part about people? And about nature?
touchups: (how sweet it is to hear)

[I KNOW!!!!!]

Mm... Well! We're different there, of course. [Of course! Curse life. But--] They really are creative, though! It's nice, living in a world with the things they make.

[Now if only he could push them outta their own sandbox.]

That's a good reason to like nature, too. I'd say you might like talking to Jogo, but Hanami is a much better conversationalist.
