WHAT pets
WHERE everywhere
WHEN Day 51


[Man there's just like.

An unruly number of domesticated animals out today.

Dogs and cats of all breeds, fat beautiful pigeons, soft docile bunnies, even the occasional horse just wandering thru town.

The corner vendors all have lots of pet supplies in stock too! Wow it's like someone is trying to tell you something!!]

[alternatively it's actually like 3am and still pitch dark but maybe you catch this guy jogging around the park at night.

Or, you catch him 20 minutes later. when he's collapsed onto his face in the grass breathing hard like he wants to die.

after about five minutes a mangy calico starts clawing up his back in preparation for sleeping on it.]

God...dammit you little shit...

[leaveshishaton]

[GOSH, MAYBE IT'S HARD TO SEE A PHONE GETTING LOBBED AT YOUR FACE WHEN YOU'RE JOGGING IN THE DARK.]

[ingoodface]

[ when the heck did this guy show up? there's no indication of anything like footsteps or a presence, but suddenly there's a voice speaking above dazai anyway: ] Are you alright, sir?

[2beautiful2live]

[mEANWHILE, LATER IN THE DAY.

Orga has found the largest dog in sight, a particularly big Tibetan mastiff, and is making friends.

for a guy who has literally never had a pet, he just seems to be pretty good at this, and is already scritching the animal's ears cheerfully]

You might be big enough for him to ride.

[ananass]

[when Shawn spots Orga and his doggo friend his WHOLE STUPID FACE lights up as he comes over. he's more contained about his manic exuberance than usual? huh. it appears that one of Shawn's few and weirdly specific skills is: make frand with doge.

gonna make friends gonna pet!!]

This is hands down the best event ever.

[leaveshishaton]

[somehow... dogs seem to come up and bark at him and he doesn't even have any treats on him this time so mostly he's been trying to avoid them by climbing buildings.

currently, he's sitting on the side of the mall, chainsmoking Chuuya's cigarettes. there's maybe a couple of dogs curled up in a pile under him and it'd be cute but. dogs. why.]

[onetrickdog]

[dogs why]

Akutagawa has methodically been hunting down Dazai nearly all day. Apparently now he's found him.]

Dazai-san.

[proficient_in_photoshop]

[ohhh my gggooodddd....

This man has just not made it home, his groceries are off to the side and he is deadpan in the face but he hasn't stopped petting animals for 20 minutes. He can be heard occasionally muttering.]

You're so goddamn cute... Look at you. Just the cutest shit of all time.

[ananass]

[here comes Shawn, cradling a bunny.

shockingly, he isn't doing it wrong. looks like one of his few skills is making friends with pets.]

Hey, look, it's something we and anyone with a soul can agree on.

[dracoclaw]

[ She is is very quietly kneeling near a cute bunny.

She's hiding one hand behind her back and is sloooowly reaching for it with the other... ]

[kimaris]

[ For some reason, this nya is stuck up a tree.

Gaelio is giving it a long look before... climbing up after it.

There's probably a cliche here, if you look hard enough. ]

[caughtbythecurrent]

[mikuo's crisis of the moment: how many animals are too many to support on one full-time and one part-time librarians' income??

because a cat and a rabbit are snuggled together in his lap and a pigeon is gently cooing in his arms]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ CAMERA SHUTTER NOISE ]

[selfidentitytheft]

Nope. Nope, fuck this, I'm out. No thank you.

[turning around at the first sight of a dog and scaling a tree to join the local cats]

[ghostfromthemachine]

...Oh. You wouldn't be a fan, would you.

[ sounding a little sheepish, possibly because there are now a bunch of food bowls around the base of the rock her shrine is on and they have attracted Attention ]

[batonnet]

[While he's not on duty at the clinic, you might find Charles carefully, curiously approaching one of the horses. None of them seem to like him, though . . . no matter how nonthreatening and calm he is, all of them immediately register him as a threat for some reason, and skitter away the moment he even tries to get close. SIGH.

Later, he's given up on the horses and is sulking with some pigeons instead. At least they seem to be cool with him. By now he's gathered like, three, and is either sitting in the park with them while they coo and bob around him, or picking up some supplies for them (with them huddled up in a bundle in his coat under his arm), because . . . yeah. Look, we all need friends.]

[giving100percent]

[carrying a cat in his arms, which he has to hold a lil' tighter when it sees the pigeons]

You can't have those.

[giving100percent]

[has been conquered by a cat. just sittin on the ground. cat in his lap.

he is owned by this cat now and is giving it the pets as it purrs]

[tytosmima]

[ this guy's just laying on his stomach, covered in big fluffy kitties. so many kitties huddled up on his sides and legs and under his wings. he's got his face buried in one. ] So soft...

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ there is a large gathering of Assorted Animals in the park near that rock with the copper offering bowl on it

this is possibly because someone has set out a few additional bowls near it and filled them with food. said someone is nearby, flopped on her belly with her chin in her hands and humming as she watches the turnout (and gets climbed on.) ]

[mindinthegittern]

[guess who is here with home baked shortbread!]

...well, this looks homey.

[fastandloose]

[Choose your animal Cassica is commenting on. At rabbits or pigeons:]

There sure are a lot of these things. People don't eat 'em 'round here, right...?

[or, at a swarm of cats:]

Are we sure these things aren't pests?

[or, at a horse:]

Hoy! That's a horse, right?! It's bigger than I thought.

[mindinthegittern]

That's a horse, all right!

[onelastknight]

[ Honestly probably surrounded by like, a disney princess level of beautiful animals. Maybe the air is full of sparkles? He does not have enough hands to pet all of these animals ]

[ingoodface]

[ on his way back home or something but like man that's a lot of animals ] Are they all yours?

[ingoodface]

[ there's this kid who looks about 16 and is probably someone you've seen before, or maybe you haven't. anyway he's hanging out at the park, and by hanging out i mean being completely accosted by like, an entire five litters of pups or something. ]

. . . I don't think I have room in that apartment for all of you. . .

[ with a helpless laugh, as he sits with his schoolbag on a bench and several puppies on his lap, all whining as he tries to pet them all.

you can bother him here, or you can be approached by him holding up a puppy to you, specifically -- yes you. ]

Excuse me! Do you like puppies?

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ —hello I know you yes ]

Goodness, you're popular.

[isfinetoo]

[currently up a tree, being barked at by dogs, trying to look completely unruffled.]

[selfidentitytheft]

[..................... waves at from. up in another tree.]

[this is a bad day for cats and foxes]

[what did we do to deserve dogs]

[wrongstory]

[staring down a cat near the apartments with a look of intense indecision]

[hailstormed]

[ if you're not too far from the apartments you might see gale curled up against the side of the building with a cat of his own

it has taken over his lap. no freedom ]

[acts_her_age]

[OH NO]

[absolutely, embarrassingly delighted, and immediately shoving her face on the nearest dog]

[NO DIGNITY JUST DOGS NOW]

[agoodnoe]

[ Carrying a fat white cat that is actively gnawing on his arm. ]

There there Murr, no one's going to bully you.

[kimaris]

Isn't it the other way around?

[chosemyfate]

[[A]]

[ And there's a dragon chilling with a few bunnies! They seem to mind the presence of a large creature, as it booped noses with the reptile. Feel free to join him in getting bunny kisses/boops or think you gotta protect flufifes from a teethy reptile? ]

[[B]]

[Have a guy approaching you with a puppy in his arms coming over to you with a wide grin. (The puppy looked like a corgi, too...) Corrin seems to have different colored bandanas in his hand, too... Feel free to enable Corrin into bad choices into dressing his dog if you're that type. ]

What color do you think would suit him better? A blue one or a green one? Should I skip the bandanna entirely?

b

[rightwingman]

Why not both? Then he'll have two outfits to switch between.

[cinnaponroll]

[Disney Princessing it up as well, just sits on the sidewalk while he pets dogs and cats and squirrels]

Oh! ♥ You're friendly!

[chosemyfate]

[ Dragon boy here is pretty ok with animals but.. SQUIRRELS? REALLY?

Color Corrin impressed as he observed, but he's careful to not be too close so he won't scare them away from Tsuzuki. ...Was that a bird on the guy's shoulder now? ]

H-How are you doing that?

[deathblossomisready]

[A man in black leather boots, ripped-up jeans, a black Disturbed hoodie (hood up), and an owl skull mask obscuring what seems like... black? nothing?? is testing out a few commands with a big, heavy pit-mix work dog, who seems to be testing well.]

[splashofbourbon]

[well would you look at that. this cowboy's lounging about, watching this exchange with clear interest]

[ananass]

[Shawn is COVERED IN DOGS and has never been happier]

Whooooo's a good dog?? Trick question it's aaaaaaall of you!

Ugh, I need to re-buy icons...

[appliedscience]

I know I suggested you could get an animal if you wanted one, but this feels like taking it to an extreme.
