Hey, sweetie.

How do you feel about dogs...?

[wildmaple]

Dogs...? I like them. [ what is this sudden question ]

[oneminutehero]

[There's a method to his madness.]

Do you think a puppy would make Barnaby have a fit?

[It's a rhetorical question, really. Puppies are... awfully messy.]

Only I saw this really cute thing today that made me think maybe if you wanted one...

[wildmaple]

I.. don't know. Maybe if the puppy dirtied stuff and was really loud maybe Barnaby-san might not like it?

Wait.... we might get a puppy??? [ omfg ]

[oneminutehero]

[It may not be his BEST idea. The smile is totally worth it, though, and he grins back.]

Don't get too excited just yet, I've still got to talk it over with Barnaby. We might out-vote him, but if he really hates the idea we don't want to chase him out of the apartment, right?

If we can't have a puppy we'll just have to be happy with a Bunny instead, I guess.

[wildmaple]

[ do you hear this squee? ] Oh my gosh oh my gosh, I've always wanted a puppy!! I hope Barnaby-san says yes. I hope he does!! We can totally take it to walks and play outside with it!!!

[oneminutehero]

[Kotetsu DOES hear the squee. In fact, he holds the Dreamberry a little further from his ear and laughs.]

And we can teach it tricks! Play dead, roll over, we'll teach it to do everything!

[Woah slow down, Tiger. What did you JUST SAY.]

... I'll talk to Bunny about it soon, okay?

[wildmaple]

[ play dead what ] We can give it a really nice collar too!!

I'll help you in persuading Barnaby-san if you need it Dad! [ kaburagi tag team ]

[oneminutehero]

No rhinestones unless it's a girl, okay? Or named Nathan. It'd have to be a pretty fabulous dog, though...

[FOCUS, Kotetsu.]

That might not be a bad idea! Maybe you can help your hopeless papa cook beef stroganoff to butter him up.

[NOTHING CAN WITHSTAND THE KABURAGI TAG TEAM.]

[wildmaple]

Alright! No rhinestones unless it's a girl! [ they don't want to confuse the dog after all ]

Beef stroganoff! I've never made it before, but I guess we can both try!

[oneminutehero]

[He chuckles. The thumbs-up is practically audible.] That's the spirit! If we both really put our all into it, nothing can go wrong! [Oh, Kotetsu. Optimism springs eternal.]
