Oh, wow... I'm sorry, too. I didn't realize it was something like that.

Crow's right, though. Resourceful, fast, and agile. So I'd like to think she did, too.

I'm 2/2 at ruining the mood here, looks like... Anyone have any lighter topics of conversation?

[Rean's an idiot, but he's smart enough not to continue to press this button for Elliot.]

Aha, it's fine really. You didn't know and it was a long time ago.

And yeah, that's what my stepbrother told me too. She was mostly his cat, so if he thinks she got out, I'm sure it's true.

[But it's a relief to see neither are pressing the topic further. ]

Hmm...well while we're talking about cats- I take it you guys are cat people? Or do you like dogs more?

[He's perfectly okay with that topic change, honestly.]

I like both, honestly. Something about a dog's undying loyalty just hits me pretty deep... But there's a Maine Coon at Catmosphere that's taken a liking to me apparently so I can't say my heart's completely devoted

I like both, as well. Actually, my family has a dog... Dad's more than anyone else's and more bear than dog, but still.

So I guess for me, cats are just a little more interesting since I didn't grow up with one. The allure of what you can't have?

...Haha. Well, they do say cats take after their owners, so even if you haven't adopted it, I can kind of see it...

Aww, that sounds big and cute! And I can get that allure too.

I like both too actually, though if I'd probably stick with birds if I had to choose another pet.

Hehe, oh yeah I remember that guy. I know the cats at the cafe are up for adoption, if you ever decide you want a furry roommate...

You have a dog? Ugh...Gramps never let me have one as a kid... sounds like the perfect pillow, though Birds are a pretty unique choice, but then again, not so out of the ordinary for a musician when they can sing

[He'll admit, the thought has crossed his mind.]

Hm. It is kinda lonely here without anyone to judge me

Maybe when he was a puppy, but now he's more just big and tired. Still, he's a good boy. Don't get too jealous, though, Crow, it's not like I had any say in it whatsoever... I was still really little, Dad wanted a hunting dog, and that was that. And like I said, he's Dad's more than anyone's.

Yeah, birds aren't everyone's things... they do kind of fit you, though! "Stick with," though... do you have birds now?

If your place allows it and you're sure you can pay for it, why not? Maybe that's just jealousy talking, though... can't adopt anything where I'm at.

Hehe, he still sounds like a cute dog. Big dogs are nice once you get used to their size.

[he adores Eren's dogs, even if they are Big Boys]

Guilty as charged, I like the singing. And yeah, I have two love birds.

I could help with the adoption fee!

[Crow could use a roommate even if it's a feline, and hey maybe it'll give Rean more excuses to visit Crow. Win-Win. ]

I'm sure you're important in his eyes Rean, never underestimate a dog's love

[It's immeasurable.]

Whoa really? What'd you name e

[Crow blinks at the screen for a second.]
Wait Really?

[Rean doesn't actually have much to respond to what they're talking about with, so instead of words, he simply sends along a picture of the family dog.

He is, as Rean hinted, huge. Some kind of Bernese mountain dog mix? It's a recent picture of the dog sprawled out on the couch, sleeping. Its muzzle is very obviously greying. This is one old puppy.]

What a cute doggy!! [STILL A GOOD DOG]

Yeah, really! I got a lot of extra commissions and gigs this year, so I have some extra money.

I can't help with the long term feeding and care costs, but you can consider this a thank you for all the free help you've given me with my music. I definitely wouldn't have gotten so many jobs without it.

Hah! Aww look at that face. That's the face of a friend, if there ever was one... A good ol boy

[But with this...Crow can't help but smile. The cat did seem to seek him out every time he visited Catmosphere.

He'd have to put a little more effort into his work schedule but it shouldn't be too much of a problem.]

It's appreciated. Alright, looks like I'm getting a furry little roommate

Heh, yep! That's Badeaux. Old boy is right, he's definitely getting up there, but... he's a good boy, yeah. Can't deny it

[As for the cat decision, though:]

Aw, that's awesome! Let me know once your new friend gets used to your place, I'd love to come over and meet him!

[Elliot's plan is working.]

Badeaux...what a classy name! He looks like the kind of dog that's just great to hug.

[NICE BIG AND SOFT

And yes good, just as planned.]

Hehe, great! I'll look around my place for any cat supplies we don't use, I'm sure we got some stuff.

Badeaux, huh? Elliot's right, that's classy as hell. The big guy I'm gettin' is gonna need an equally fancy name to match--I've got some ruff competition...

[He pauses, thinking about it.]

Pachinko?

All credits to my dad. Don't know where he got it from, but yeah, it's definitely classy. ...I can also confirm the good hugs.

...Wait, wait. You say "fancy" and settle on gambling? This poor cat... I can't deny it's kind of cute, though

Awww, I think it's a cute name! It's fun to say too. Pachinko~! 🎵

... I can name it Blackjack if that's better Heh I could shorten it to BJ

[He's completely doing this on purpose. Pachinko's definitely the one he's settled on, but he just wants to see Rean react.]
Kidding!

[Before that "kidding" text is received—]

Absolutely not! Don't torture the poor cat like that! At least you can shorten Pachinko to Patchy or something cute!

[And after:]

You had better be.

[Wow they are sure bickering like a couple too. Just gonna sit back and watch for a moment ok]

So Pachinko it is! I love it... Heh, we're all talkin' like I've got the cat already. It's been about a week since I've been there, who knows if he's even still there

[He really hopes so...]

Well, I hope he is. He sounds perfect

Haha, I bet he is. Adoptions don't happen TOO often there.

Must be harder for older cats... I'll have to check again but I think they said he was about 4 or 5

Yeah, so I've heard... same with dogs. People generally want puppies or kittens.

Sounds like maybe-Pachinko's still pretty young, though, all things considered.
