[HE CATCHES THEM]

I didn't even say anything that bad this time....?!

[dotcom]

I didn't ask for your commentary.

[ he plops down angrily, although the summon motion makes him stumble a bit.

a chihuahua wanders over to sniff at him. ]

[sengokus]

[is it pupku

but mineo's just going to snort at that even as he makes a roll over motion with his finger. the bulldog does so but in the most rumbly tumbly fashion ever. it makes mineo laugh as he gives it a treat]

Nice...!

Did you see that, Takeru?

[dotcom]

[ it's pupku. the dog can kamekameha? it's not right now though. takeru lifts it up in his arms. ]

It's better trained than you.

[sengokus]

I'm a person not a dog....?!

[THE DESPAIR IS HITTING]

[dotcom]

Ah? Are you sure about that? Do you want a treat?

[ he holds one out. ]

[sengokus]

[oh my god]

No!! At least offer me something I actually want!

[don't just say you'd perform a trick for a treat you tool]

[dotcom]

[ ah. he sets the chihuahua down so he can drunkenly crawl over closer to mineo and holds the treat out again. ]

Roll over.

[sengokus]

[holy shit

he's just scowling for a second before he throws an arm around takeru's neck and pulls him into a brief headlock - it's admittedly less rough than he is with other people but listen]

You're such a shit sometimes, man!

[dotcom]

[ ONLY SOMETIMES?

but he'll try to elbow him regardless of how rough it is. ]

Moron!

[sengokus]

[yea he deserves that and lets out a soft 'guh' but he'll let go anyway because takeru's drunk]

Jerk!!

Take some of your own medicine sometimes!

[dotcom]

[ he

immediately holds the treat out again. ]

Bark.

[sengokus]

[he's just touching the ground]

How have you not gotten beaten up yet, your personality is so bad.

[dotcom]

I'd make anyone regret touching me.

[ he gives the treat to the chihuahua instead, but then look back to mineo. ]

I'm still waiting...?

[sengokus]

I already said you should at least try to give me something I want.

[the bulldog comes back to nudge at takeru's legs this time. tiny little tank.]

[dotcom]

[ the dog automatically gets a tweat. ]

What do you even want? A walk?

[ please stop treating mineo like an actual pet ]

[sengokus]

I'm not a dog!!

[HE JUST SAYS IT AGAIN]

How are you so bad with people?!

[dotcom]

[ he pats mineo on the head. it was not obvious at first but the longer this goes on the more clear it is that takeru is so drunk right now. ]

There, there, stupid.

[sengokus]

[oh my fucking god hE'S SO

TORN RIGHT NOW? IT'S OBVIOUS WHEN HE LEANS INTO THE TOUCH AUTOMATICALLY BUT THEN PULLS BACK WHEN HE REALIZES

BUT THEN LOOKS LIKE HE WANTS TO ACCEPT THE PATS ANYWAY]

Stop!! How the hell did they get you to drink so much?!

[dotcom]

The point was to indulge.

[ so sometimes you have to step a little outside of your comfort zone for it.

he laughs, clearly amused. ]

Did you like that?

[sengokus]

I-I'm not answering that question.

[he does not have to when he's so obvious]

Ah jeeze, does that mean Sheila-san's tipsy again... [HE TRIES TO THINK ABOUT THAT GROUP DRUNK AND IT SURE DOES SEEM LIKE A TIME]

[dotcom]

She's a handful while sober.

[ he pats mineo again. ]

[sengokus]

[he's not paying attention because he's thinking about sheila drinking so he leans into it easily

give him a second]

Kind of, yeah. But weirdly still one of the more normal here for the most part?

[dotcom]

I guess so. She's really just the picture of a white suburban mom.

[ it's funny?

so is the petting. ]

[sengokus]

Right? She showed me her house in the simulation room - she has a backyard! Totally normal though.

[a beat]

Wait—

[HE FLUSTERS AGAIN AND TRIES TO DODGE THE PETS]

Stop....!! You're just being mean!
