[Here is a Ryotarou. Ryotarou has a kitten! It is black, with white splotches on its paws and face like it fell in paint. It has very pretty, green eyes, and it is currently laying against Ryotarou's chest and purring heavily; someone missed Ryotarou while he was out of his reality and on the experiment.

Obviously, kittens are awesome for barrier lowering, because Ryotarou is murmuring to himself while watching the stars!]

I suppose it is a bit my fault... isn't it?

[Kitty!] You have a kitten?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Blinks, and looks up at Hei. He smiles a little and nods.] Mhmm. Regulus.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[adliasdjl kitty! There is now a Ryuuta lurking somewhat nearby torn between wanting to pet the kitty and still not entirely sure he wants to deal with a Ryotarou who may still be all weird.]

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

Fufufu, a tasty snack you have there~

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Fortunately (or unfortunately?), Ryotarou's got his contract and can thus sense Imagin. He looks over when Ryuutaros approaches.]

... Ryuutaros?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[... eep. He sits up a little straighter and scoots back.] He's not a snack.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[Crap, he forgot about the whole Imagin contractors can sense Imagin thing. Ryuuta scuffs his foot on the ground.]

...ah.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[He smiles a little, if sadly. At least he's not so nervous around Ryuutaros anymore? But that could be recent lack of exposure to his own.]

It's okay. ... it's over.

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

It is only a joke, young one! I do not plan to eat your kitten.

...There is hardly any meat to be had on it~

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[W-wary now. >:]

... Young one?

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

Oh, you are a young one, since you are many hundreds of years younger than I. I am a great wolf, watching over the youngsters at home. They called me a Goddess. I call myself Horo, the Wise Wolf of Kenro.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[Ryuuta inches a bit closer, because you can never be too sure! ...and he's been stuck with jerkface too much recently]

Really? You're really back to regular other-Ryotarou now?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

A wolf goddess? Ah... It's.. nice to meet you, Horo-sama. Do you know Amaterasu...?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Regulus mrrts and shifts around to see Ryuutaros. Thankfully, the kitten is used to Deneb, so Ryuuta's appearance doesn't scare him.]

Mm... I am. Things are... back to normal.

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

I have! And she is a wonderful acquaintance to have. I have not heard of the land of Nippon, but in turn, she does not know of Pasroe. In that sense, we are even, I suppose!

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[And that's enough to get Ryuuta to come over and plop down next to Ryotarou and reach over to pet the kitten. Short attention span, whut?]

Cause it was really weird and stuff. ...ah. [He glances up at Ryotarou sharply] Do you- I mean... do you remember it?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

That's an interesting coincidence, then. I haven't heard of Pasroe either, though... What's it like?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Regulus purrs, but doesn't leave Ryotarou's arms. Ryotarou, though, avoids the Imagin's gaze.]

... yeah. I do.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[Fiiiiiidget] But you're okay now, so it's alright, right?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

...

[Can has fake smile?] Right.

[contract_star]

Good name. You never struck me as a pet person.

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

...

[Pfft, like Ryuuta's going to buy THAT.] Heeeeeh.... reaaaally?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

Ah... I'm not, really. Sakurai gave him to me, after the last experiment.

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

Ah, Pasroe is a small town in the countryside next to a great set of forest. They have great rolling fields, always of wheat, and they take their thatch from by the river that bellows right by the town. The closest city is Patzuille, but even then that is two days by carriage and at least five if you walk.

[Doesn't like Ryuutaros knowing him so well. Definitely doesn't.] Of course.
