Hello, Jumin. It's been quite some time and I hope you, Catherine, and Napoleon are doing well.
[ Takumi doesn't exactly have too many feelings for animals, but he remembers the pegasi and kinshis that his comrades and friends are pretty fond of. Not that he's attached or anything!
[ And the feed ends. You'd think he'd get ready, too, but when Takumi arrives, the door is slightly ajar. Should he peek inside, he'll find Jumin sitting on the floor and smiling as he plays with Napoleon using a cat teaser. His cat is so cute... Ah, what did he do to be blessed with such a perfect creature? Just leave him alone to die in happiness... ]
It's nothing. I'm glad to see that you two can keep each other company.
[ A little more is enough for him to walk in. Jin toddles after Takumi, white and fluffy with some festive bow around his neck. At least someone in the room seems excited? ]
I heard that these are good for pets... Shiro prefers sleeping at the foot of my bed, so I have no use for it.
[ More like he bought it on a splurge, but he pulls out what looks like a bed in the shape of a cream puff. It's lightly scented, too. ]
[ Shiro? Is that the name of Takumi's Carrier? The moment he pulls out the cream puff bed, it becomes clear to Jumin that Shiro isn't in the room. As curious he is about Takumi's other pets, he's happier to receive a thoughtful present. ]
I've seen a bed like this before. It was in an app. [ But he also realizes that Takumi probably doesn't know what he's talking about, so he lets out something like a chuckle as he takes the bed. ] It's nothing.
Thank you, Takumi. Cherima seems to be the equivalent of this world's holidays. It almost slipped my mind. [ Christmas, after all, is just like any other day to him. ]
[ It's a little white bunny he found, but he hasn't... told anyone......... shhh. It was dumb of him to think a bunny might like a cream puff bed, but his carrier makes a better heater.
Yup. Takumi is trying to look like he totally understands what Jumin is talking about, but he's a deer in headlights. Bless your soul for not making it a topic. ]
We don't have anything like Cherima in Hoshido, but gift-giving is still standard. [ Wait... He meant to make this all sound like a hand-me-down. What is he doing? HE HUFFS. ] D-Don't think of it as a Cherima present... As I said, I found no use for it. Merry Cherima, anyway.
[ Awkward. He makes a beeline to the kitten with his puppy diligently following after him. ]
[ This phenomenon... He thinks he's read about this before. Is this what they call tsundere? Why Takumi makes an effort to hide his emotions is understandable, but when he makes it painfully obvious for others to read him, Jumin doesn't see the point. ]
Yes, because he received a Cherima present.
[ yeah ]
I think the celebrations are a mere commercialization of a religious holiday, but it's none of my business how others spend their time. Your Carrier seems to be in the holiday spirit as well.
[ Jumin places the cream puff at the foot of his bed, where Napoleon eagerly tries it out. But as soon as the kitten disappears into plush paradise, a black pug seems to come out of the woodwork, dashing between Jumin's feet to approach the other puppy in the room, Jin. PLAY WITH HER. ]
[ Takumi will just take it. Bless Jumin for being... understanding??? In not pointing out his lack of composure. ]
Celebrations, at least by origin, serve a purpose. [ Commercialized. How weird? ] I'm sure being somewhat festive and enjoying the holidays would be what my sister wanted. It's a little juvenile, but at least Jin can dress up in my stead.
[ Jin yaps loudly at the sight of the black pug. Engaging in puppy play in three seconds. It's just some rambunctious yaps here and there and it makes him sigh. ]
From the sounds of it, you really don't have plans? Most people spend it with their friends.

That isn't the reason why he's calling, though. ]
Mind if I drop something off?
no subject
[ Anyway. ]
But yes, you're more than welcome to drop it off. In fact, you can send it to me now if you'd like. I'm in my room right now.
no subject
[ To be quite honest, everything has been bad, so he has been splurging lately. Gifts for everyone!! ]
All right. What is your room number?

OKAY, now he'll peek in. ]
You shouldn't leave your door open.
[ Invite him in, thanks. ]
no subject
[ How... well, it's not embarrassing. This is how he always is. So, he straightens up and clears his throat before opening the door. ]
Takumi. Napoleon was so incredibly adorable that I couldn't leave him alone. [ He opens it just a little more. ] Come in.
[ The cat doesn't even pay attention to Takumi, too engrossed in playing with the toy he's been left with. Pets take after their owners, it seems... ]
