[foxtastic]

Yeah. I've been mostly alone... being around others, even while working, has been difficult.

[innermonologues]

Well... I'm no Keaton, but... you can stick with me when you want to...?

[foxtastic]

I won't get in your way? Or become annoying? Because if you say that, I might just... cling onto you forever!

[ said a little jokingly. ]

[innermonologues]

If I do it'll only to be to get under your skin.

[ He snorts softly. ]

[foxtastic]

I'll make you brush my tail if you do that.

But would it better if I just... found you at your place?

[innermonologues]

Ah... I haven't really been home much this month.

[foxtastic]

You haven't?

[ ah... he's been so selfish. ]

Is it because of your friend, too?

[innermonologues]

Huh?.... Oh no. A friend of Sora's appeared who doesn't seem particularly fond of me. I don't really blame him... but I've been trying to give them space.

[foxtastic]

Why would someone appear who isn't fond of you?!

[ but then his ears twitch... ]

Unless there's another you somewhere, right?

[innermonologues]

Mmm, not this time.

[ he snorts softly. ]

I think he's a bit protective over Sora so he isn't here to make friends...

[foxtastic]

Well... maybe as soon as he gets used to this place, he'll be more open to it. There's nothing wrong with having friends!

[innermonologues]

Yeah... maybe. Although I can't see it happening any time soon.

[foxtastic]

If he needs convincing, I'll be happy to do it on your behalf! I've yet to meet someone who didn't like a fox after spending some time with one!

[innermonologues]

I can't really argue that. You grew on me pretty quickly...

[foxtastic]

... and you grew on me as well.

I'll never be totally comfortable with humans, but with you? You might as well be a kitsune.

[innermonologues]

Ah.... oddly enough that kind of makes me feel rather honored.

[foxtastic]

You should be. If... if you ever found your way to my village, I bet we'd make an exception for you, too!

[ if he remembered Squall. ]

[innermonologues]

If you ever found you way into my school I wouldn't let the girls tug on your tail.

[foxtastic]

Well, I'd be a pretty big distraction if I went with you to all of your... classes, right?

We don't have schools. You'd have to show me what one does outside of learning!

[innermonologues]

It'll be a new discovery for both of us since I don't know what others do outside of school.

[foxtastic]

Maybe they eat ice cream and pet foxes, but not pull tails.

I think this sounds perfectly reasonable.

[innermonologues]

Sounds like someone is just looking for an excuse to get ice cream and affection. By the way I think I see you now.

[foxtastic]

No way! But hey, if that's how it works, I can't say I wouldn't be surprised.

[ his tail immediately shoots up as he looks around, before it starts to swish back and forth. ]

You do?!

[innermonologues]

I don't know anyone else that fluffy.

action

[foxtastic]

Well. You're going to have to tell me if it's someone else.

[ because he's going to run toward Squall and essentially snug-tackle him.

sorry not sorry. ]
