Yeah figures and stuff. My bf's super into 2D girls.
[ Which is for the best. If he was into other real life girls she would stress about it, but 2D like who cares, he can't run off with a 2D girlfriend. ]
[ She's an exception to his 2D>3D rules. Though to be fair, she's got green hair and big moe red eyes and superpowers and wears revealing clothing and twin tails so it's not really that big of a departure... ]
omw
[ And sure enough she shows up at the given address about 30 minutes later. She ended up getting regular popcorn and zebra popcorn and a couple different flavors of soda and some red hots. This is her first time really getting to just watch a movie with a friend besides Mercury or her boyfriends, okay? She got excited and got more than necessary. Which is why her knock sounds a little weird because the bag is clunking against the door while she does it.. ]
[The knock at his door, unusual sounding as it may be, isn't what catches Mafuyu off guard - he knows Emerald is coming over, so there's really no one else it could be. What does make him falter is the sight that greets him upon opening the door, and before even saying hello, he reaches out to try to take one of the bags she's carrying.
Of course, Kedama's dashing down the hall in a matter of seconds, but Mafuyu doesn't have the mind to pick him up the way he usually would.]
I've never done this before, I didn't know what to get. You'll have lots of leftovers.
[ If she brings this home, her bf is going to scold her for buying too much junk food in his mom-voice. Once Mafuyu somehow ends up with.. most of the bags and Emerald has maybe one (how did that happen?) she sits down on the floor where she is so the dog can smell her. Legit on the floor, like, she doesn't care. She sits on the floor a lot. ]
[He's fine carrying most of the bags in, but glances down at them precariously as he carries them into the living room. This is an awful lot for two people... So he's probably going to be left with a lot of it if Emerald doesn't take any.
Still, everything looks good, so Mafuyu is hardly upset. And once he sets the bags down and turns back to find Emerald sitting on the floor with Kedama, he only stares for a moment before sitting on the floor with them. It doesn't strike him as weird, either - sitting on the floor is pretty common for him.]
You're good with animals... Most people just pet him right away. [It's not like Kedama ever has any qualms, since he loves people!]
I'll get in trouble if I bring home this much junk food.
[ At least she knows she's made a ridiculous purchase. Once the dog seems comfortable enough and gives her permission, she moves her hand to his side to give him a test-pat if he lets her. ]
I grew up on the streets. You either let dogs come to you or you risk getting bit, seemingly friendly or not. I could never take care of one but I know not to pick a fight.
[Well, that's good enough for him. It's not like he's going to complain about getting free junk food... But hopefully, Emerald will help him eat some it before the night is over.
Still, Mafuyu watches attentively as Emerald pats Kedama (who, of course, only wags his tail furiously and leans into her hand in response), eyes widening just a little at her explanation.]
I've... never thought of that. [Probably because he's never tried to pet a dog that wasn't with its owner, but still.] Um, I'm still new to this. Taking care of a dog. But Kedama is easy... since he's friendly.
[Thanks for getting him a dog without warning, mom! (But he's grown to love it.)]
[ She will help for sure. And she gets plenty of chroma generated, so she's not really at any risk of overspending on junk food. It's kind of easy when you can just smack a butt to pay for lunch.
Once he's obviously accepting, Emerald moves in to give him wild pets with both hands, trying to work him up into play-wrestling with her hands. And then abruptly picks him up so they can go inside with the pommie all wound up. ]
Well, licking's probably okay as long as he doesn't eat the snacks.
[Smacking asses to buy endless food is, quite honestly, the ideal lifestyle. Junk food for days is perfectly acceptable.
And so is picking up Kedama, who already seems to love Emerald to the point that even Mafuyu can't hold back a tiny smile as they walk inside. Adorable.]
He will if we don't keep them away from him. He'll eat anything.
[Bugs, tissues, you name it. But as they enter, Mafuyu gestures the low table he has set up in his tiny living room, now covered in the bags of snacks he haphazardly set down.]
But he can't reach up here. So we can watch in peace.
[ Emerald appreciates that she hasn't received any criticism about her behaviors yet. She's used to a lot of criticism, even if she doesn't mind it. (Or at least, she understands where it comes from.) ]
Got it. I won't leave anything on the couch.
[ ALl food stays on the table! Which is good because she's going to sit down on the floor in front of the table. If there's a couch, she'll lean back against the bottom of it. She sets Kedama down next to her when she does this. ]
[As far as he's concerned, there's nothing to criticize! Emerald seems to be doing everything right and putting more care into it than some people he knows (who will go unnamed), so Mafuyu is more than content to offer a wordless nod and slide into a sitting position beside her.]
Um... I don't know any of them.
[Not in Lunatia, anyway. Picking up the remote, he turns on the TV, which is queued to a screen with a list of movies.]
I opened the streaming service to the horror section. But I don't know what's good.
Me neither, but I like gore and I don't like ghosts, so pick whatever fits that.
[ She can't say she won't end up rooting for the bad guy depending on the motivation, but she can read the room well enough to figure out if she should lie about that to Mafuyu, so he can pick whatever he wants. ]
[No ghosts, huh... Mafuyu doesn't see what's so bad about them, but gore should be easy! Hold on, just let him hum to himself and mindlessly scroll down the list...]
This one's recommended. It looks like it's about people on a camping trip.
[ when you murder a bunch of people, the idea of them coming back to haunt you literally is a little unnerving. it's why she's pretty sure ghosts aren't real, but also definitely why she doesn't like the idea of them. ]
[They're both awfully calm about this, and as much fun as it is to watch a movie with someone like Uenoyama or Haruki who would undoubtedly lose their minds over this type of film, it's honestly really enjoyable already to calmly talk about.... people being murdered?]
You think one dies early but they were alive the whole time.

[ She points to the second hottest girl. ] She'll live. The other girl is too sexy, they always kill the sexy one.
no subject
[Are those good enough reasons? They should be. Emerald's probably right, though, and Mafuyu cants his head to the side in thought.]
So she's safe because she's not the sexy one, but still pretty?
no subject
I think we're both probably right.
