purrrnicious | Heart Game: Run #3

[Man she perks right up, like her tail would be wagging if she was a dog and not a cat.]

Okay! It's not very big, though. . . is that okay?

Of course.

You must have your favorite spots.

[After a brief hesitation, she holds out her hand.]

Okay, I'll show you.

[Takes her hand in his. Okay, small adorable child, where are we going?]

[She takes him like fifteen steps over to her pillow pile with all the plushies.]

[...

Cute.

So who exactly in the plushie pile again?]

[He can spot himself, Eichi, Sekhmet, and D.Va from Imeeji. Adora and Shadow Weaver are also there.

She just points at the nest and says:]

This is where I can go when I'm tired.

[He reaches up to pick up the Sekhmet doll.]

...

She came to me worried about you. After the memory sharing game.

[She doesn't look surprised, just curious.]

Why?

She wanted to make sure you weren't alone.

Oh.

[She picks at the corner of one of her blankets, ears lying flat as she adds (almost shyly):]

But I wasn’t alone. You were there.

Yes, I was.

[And he reaches over to run his fingers through her mop of hair.]

And producer intervention notwithstanding, I will always try to be there.

But I thought out of all the "yous" in this place, you would know what best to do what that information. In the end, you can choose to do nothing with it. It's up to you.

Oh. . .

[She looks uncertain, then, though she colours a little when he ruffles her hair.]

Should I do something?

Perhaps. Perhaps not.

Can you tell me your side?

I think you should talk to "Kohime" for that. The one upstairs.

Will you be okay on your own for a little bit?

...

Do you ever leave this place?

I'm okay. I go through the vents sometimes. No one ever catches me.

[She sounds a little proud, when she states the last.]

Of course. You're much too clever for that.

[Gestures for his Blue Eyes bot to come closer.]

Can you watch over her for me for a few? I'll be right back. For you and her.

[She nods, trying to look serious and reliable.]

[Cute.

Blue Eyes is going to scamper around her while Intensity goes back up topside to talk to Kohime.]

[She's waiting by the bed exit, and just raises an eyebrow when Intensity returns.]

Yeah, I get it, she's kinda boring. Ooooh, look at me, I'm all cute and tiny and helpless and just want everyone to hug me~

Even tiny you is not helpless. And all of you are cute.

But -- she did say that if I wanted some to get in some quality girl talk, that you were the subject matter expert.

Uh, okay, first –– I'm not "cute". That's definitely a dumb princess word.

And what "subject matter" are we talking about, here?

Complicated idol relations.

[Rolls her eyes.]

Either get to the point and ask, or move along.
