Indeed, and the games some of us play haven't helped in the least.

[Particularly putting Fishy in Doudanuki's room. He knew it was a bad idea, but he had expected Doudanuki to demand the fish's removal, not keep it.]

Besides, a few too many shoes have gone missing, by my understanding, and I fear for my pigeon in this state.

[Even if it was just a robot, he had grown oddly attached to it.]

[adornmental]

[DOUDANUKI IS A MENACE AND HE NEEDS TO BE STOPPED. He also needs better friends who won't put killer fish in his room for shits and giggles.]

I mean, I'd be pretty worried about it too if I were you. I'm worried about Cupcake but at least she doesn't fly around all over the place.

[Cats are marginally easier to keep track of! ...Very marginally, but still.]

[dishevelment]

Hatoha's better trained than that, [Koumei said, not even showing any shame that he's effectively done the equivilent of naming a cat 'kitty.'] It's the others I worry about. Kogi gets up to some strange business when he's bored and unsupervised...

That's why I've been taking Hatoha with me when I leave for the day. It's easier to keep him safe.

[adornmental]

[HATOHA. Well, Kashuu sure won't judge - outwardly, anyway.]

Yeah, he does. [That Kogi, a troublemaker.] Probably smart of you to do that, anyway...

[dishevelment]

[Judge all you want, Koumei has no shame in the fact that he's done the equivilent of naming a cat 'kitty'.]

Indeed. Now, if only there was a way to keep the apartments safe from a bored Kogitsunemaru...

[adornmental]

[People and their wild pet names...

He's also nodding in response to that because boy, truer words have never been said.]

Maybe we should get him more foxes to play with.

[dishevelment]

[h e a d t i l t.]

Have you seen the state of Mister Naki and Mister Kogi's room? They've plenty of foxes, and they've recently found another to play with.

[adornmental]

There's probably room to cram a few more in there.

[There is such a thing as too many foxes, though...]

[dishevelment]

I'm not going to take that bet-- nor do I have any right to judge them.

[After all, he is the man who befriended a flock of pigeons as a kid...]

[adornmental]

I don't think anyone here's judging 'em, at least.

[The fox room is cute and he likes it, even if he may laugh sometimes about just how many foxes they've amassed.]

Buuut we could probably go for a different option, yeah.

[dishevelment]

Oh? And what's your suggestion?

[About either Kogi or Fishy. He truly wanted to know.]

[adornmental]

Maybe we can get Kogi a second job? I'm not sure... Or we can just, y'know. Get rid of Fishy, but he'd probably be sad.

[Haru sure wouldn't be, though?!]

[dishevelment]

Doudanuki may be more upset if we did away with Fishy.

[Because s e r i o u s l y. He didn't expect the war sword to become so fond of the alien beast who may be silently plotting the murder of everyone in the building.]

[adornmental]

We'll just get him a better pet that doesn't wanna eat everything soft enough to bite.

[And some things that aren't soft enough to bite... What a determined fish.]

[dishevelment]

Like a rock?

[Kashuu. Kashuu please. Donut with a rock is dangerous]

[adornmental]

Wha-- Who keeps a rock as a pet?

[Clearly he missed out on that 90s fad.]

I was thinking more like a normal fish, or a bird or something. Maybe a little puppy?

[dishevelment]

Apparently people who don't monitor their spending; I've seen a number of rocks with eyes glued to them being sold in novelty shops.

[But, seriously. Who has the money for that when you can just make one-- if you even wanted one.]

I think perhaps a small sparrow might be best. The most damage it can be trained to do is ruining someone's shirt.

[Because you know Donut would probably train a dog to follow him into battle...]

[adornmental]

That's so weird! I haven't seen any at all...

[Now he kind of wants to find one, though?! It sounds... like an experience that he needs under his belt, clearly.]

That's good, too. I'm not sure if he'd like a little bird as much as a dog, but maybe we could just get him a puppy cybuddy that doesn't get bigger or something so he'd have to play nice.

[dishevelment]

I doubt size will stop him, Kashuu.

[Because he could seriously see Doudanuki teaching a puppy how to carry around small blades on the battlefield.]

[adornmental]

—Oh, yeah, you're probably right. He's pretty small too and he sure doesn't care about that.

[A RUDE PEANUT... But size doesn't matter at all when you have a battle cry that sounds like you're stepping on a lego and some of the strongest hit stats of all the uchigatana.]

[dishevelment]

Oh my-- do be careful about letting him hear you.

[Because, guess who would take the brunt of his anger at being called 'small' later in the night? Koumei, if he didn't hit a bottle of sake first.]

But you do have a point. The smaller warriors tend to be the most fearsome.

[For example: his baby brother.]

[adornmental]

[It's the tiny ones you've gotta watch out for, it's true... He just laughs though. LAUGHS IN THE FACE OF DANGER.]

It's fine, it's fine. [He wouldn't be able to catch up anyway, hAH.] But you're definitely right about that! Our tantou are pretty strong, too.

[dishevelment]

Like Mister Imano, yes?

I would hate to be in his way if he decides to take action. The sweet ones tend to be the most dangerous as well.

[adornmental]

Yep! Him and Sayo - they're both tantou. [THE ONLY ONES STILL AROUND. He loves them both but he sure does miss Midare sometimes.]

You're way right about that.

[dishevelment]

Some things are, unfortunately, universal.

[He bobbed his head, somewhat grave now.]

Just like how I suspect that this Fishy may have some sense. There are stories of ancient dragons who may still live in my world, among other inhuman beasts who have intelligence. It might be wise to try our luck in understanding Fishy before we do anything rash.
