「 This year's different. I see it in the skies.

Lunus I appreciate your protectiveness around me, but I think you’re scaring everyone else :-(

… … They’re right behind me, aren’t they 😰

greetings peasants! certified uno god here

ㅤ ㅤㅤDGGRGASFGHHH FUCKING UNO FHRGEGAAAGAHHFBSYRJNN ㅤ

this game sucks

Uno is very stressful :-(

:-(

Plants are hardy little things... it's very impressive to see how much they pull through. ( They look up towards the cyber elf. ) ... Pardon me, but did you say "hundreds of years"?

( Oh…! Kirin does step closer, quietly and respectfully. ) … You’re doing a very good job taking care of it.

// i am the queen of bad timing /silly

( Watching from a distance… the flower /is/ pretty… )

I've been alright, I think! Things haven't been too bad... ( <- they don't know yet )

It has been a very long time... How have you been? Well, I hope? ( They're very happy to see her!! )

Hello, Phoenix!! ( They hug the sides of her snout, tail wagging quickly. )

// kirin is technically still in another thread but i will be silly with them here for a bit

( !! ) ( :-)!! )

- THE VAST WHITE POKEMON .

Everything’s getting very tense and frightening outside again…

( nc ) ( anxious sneeze like a scared dog ) uwah

( Another quiet night in. They're still cleaning things up... )

LET'S JUST SAY...

Ah…!! No no, it’s okay! It’s not a bad thing to experience!! It’s very sweet, it’s nothing to be embarrassed about!!

// ok so i might’ve thought that was lunus at first my bad

Oh! I did this with Enker when he first told me about his troubles. It’s a normal feeling to have! … But, er, we /are/ a couple now, so…

// what do you mean lunus has already killed someone on kirins behalf ❤️ /lh

I am!! ( They sound so excited! Once more, they run off to get the ball back. It takes a bit of time for Kirin to return yet again; slower this time, but still smiling. ) Heh... A-Alright, I think I've used up the extra energy now. It's always such a rush! Thank you for indulging me, Lunus.

( They stop in front of Lunus again, now with their tail wagging a mile a minute. Staring with such huge eyes, waiting… ) … I really like this game. ✨

( Silly mode is in full swing. Their tail wags back and forth very quickly as they zip around, trying to playfully keep away from Eros. )

You do that too--? ( They can hardly get the question out before going to run after the ball again. Trying to switch directions as it hits the walls. It's very sweet and funny. )

Oh, I'm glad! I was worried I looked foolish... ( They look more excited at the question. ) ... Yes, please. ✨

( Ball!! Kirin’s pupils get very large as they scramble after it. Once they’ve caught it… predictably, they bring it back. ) I loved that, thank you…! I-I hope you don’t mind my excitement…

( They gaze away, slightly embarrassed; but their tail still twitches. ) O-Oh, no, you aren’t! I was just… letting off excess energy.

( Yes! /Yes!!/ They zip around in circles all around the room alongside Eros. They are thriving! )

Lunus! ( They start to run quick circles around them, before suddenly stopping in front of him. They try to regain composure, but their tail is still puffy with energy... )

( They have the zoomies... )

I saw him again today. He looked at me very strangely before flying off...

I spotted a robot I've never seen before today! I couldn't even get a clear scan...

( The whole bottle is empty and they are now very much asleep. )

( They're sipping a small cup of sake. ) ( ... The bottle is also right next to them, though, so it doesn't really make a difference. )

( Kirin finally had the existence of this ... strange, worn version of themselves explained to them. ) ( They've gone very, very quiet. )

Yes, it is! New Year's Eve is always exciting. It's the one time of year where I feel I can let loose a little more than usual...

I have the next few days off of work. :-)

( They're sweeping up outside the shop. The New Year's decorations have already been up for several days now, but they're keeping up with making everything tidy. )

Oh!! I love it! Thank you, Wander!! 💙 ( Kirin holds the box of pocky while shuffling into the sweater. Nice and warm! Their tail is wagging a mile a minute, and they're beaming. )

Oh! I appreciate it... you didn't have to get me anything...! ( Modest as always, but they do take the box and gently open it. )

You look very cozy, Wander! :-) ( Not even commenting on what the sweater says. )
