À bien dire, ce qu'il y a de meilleur ♔ dans l'homme, c'est le chien.

[Tamaki looks a bit lost currently. Or more accurately, he looks like he has lost something. He turns around in a circle around himself, looking around the Plane, then looks back at the brochure he's holding, before looking back up again.]

Antoinette?

[he looks down at the brochure again, before folding it back up and putting it inside his jacket pocket.]

Antoinette! This is no time for hide and seek. [quietly under his breath, as he looks at his watch] You won that an hour ago. [he sighs and begins walking the Plane again on an epic quest to find his dog.] Antoinette! Come out wherever you are!

Got separated from someone?

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Yes! My dear and wonderful dog, Antoinette. After learning that pets can come to this place, I had to show her, but tragically we seemed to have been separated.

You haven't seen her, have you?

[lostandfinder]

No, I haven't. Don't you have a leash or something? [Mentioning the leash reminds him and he stuffs his hands into his pockets to hide the string around his wrist.]

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Why would I restrict Antoinette to a leash? [he's distracted at the moment, so he doesn't notice the string or the movement as anything worth noting]

[lostandfinder]

... to keep her from running off. Which's obviously something that happens.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

What? No! Never! She is far too well bred and intelligent and loyal to do anything like that. Obviously this place just confused her senses and she accidentally wandered off. When we get home I'll have a discussion with her regarding this immediately!

[lostandfinder]

O...kay, then. Where'd you see her last?

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[recovers from flailing to take on a tragic pose] Near the Coliseum. But I have looked around there quite extensively. Now I fear we might both be looking for each other and just nearly missing in our attempts, like some kind of Greek tragedy or comedy of errors.

[lostandfinder]

The coliseum, huh... That's as good a place to start as any. [He begins to wander off in that direction.]

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Ah, thank you! [Tamaki catches up, and then genuinely] Thank you for your help. It's very greatly appreciated. I just hope we find her soon.

[lostandfinder]

[If there's one thing Chivy is good at, it's finding lost things. Pets shouldn't be any different, right?] Don't worry 'bout it.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Not worry about it!?! But how can I not worry about it!?! Lost and lonely and desperately yearning for that most happy of reunions. Of course I must worry!

[lostandfinder]

[Okay, that makes him stop and stare at Tamaki.] Meant the thanks.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Oh.

But still, it is just as difficult not to worry about thanking you for your valiant efforts and willingness to assist in this endeavor. How can I not worry about thanking you?

[lostandfinder]

[Unexpectedly, he begins slowly veering off to the side.]

By worrying 'bout your dog instead?

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[he's about to reply when he watches Chivy's unexpected motion. He blinks in confusion]

Ah, are you okay?

[lostandfinder]

[Pauses. There's a confused look before it turns into understanding.]

Yeah, fine. C'mon, this way.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[he's still very confused, but he follows anyway]

Your balance seems off. Are you the clumsy type perhaps?

[lostandfinder]

No?

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

Does that make you the clumsy type who is lacking in self-awareness. I have heard that many princesses find this type endearing, although we don't really have that type in the Host Club. Maybe Haruhi might count. I'll have to do further research into this.

[and he walks a little ahead of Chivy]

Antoinette! Antoinette!

[lostandfinder]

[Just... shakes his head. Ahead of Tamaki, it's very likely that his dog is somewhere nearby!]

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[and there is the sound of barking somewhere, and Tamaki runs ahead, to be reunited with Antoinette who promptly tackles him]

Antoinette!

[and there is much barking and joyful reuniting and things. Tamaki looks up from the dog who is currently jumping all over him]

Thank you! You're a very lucky pers - [and his attention shifts as Antoinette jumps on him again] - aah! Antoinette!

[lostandfinder]

[Rubs the back of his neck with his strung-up hand.] Not really. But... you're welcome.

[hostclubdaddy.livejournal.com]

[Tamaki actually looks up between being knocked down by his dog, and spots the string this time]

What's that?

[Antoinette nudges him, but when she sees something has his attention, she looks towards Chivy as well]

[lostandfinder]

[Aw crap. He quickly stuffs his hand back in his pocket.] Nothing.
