nonah is a city
i'll come to you, yeah?
i'm going to bring someone you like
he's my dog, called mightyena
you liked him a lot, i don't know if you still will but
maybe he'll jog your memory.

[d33tached]

Very well, then.

I will send you my location.

[Lo and behold, he does actually remember how to do that.]

I thank you for your assistance, Archie.

[h2no]

no prob

[he's there not long after, though mightyena bounds ahead to say hello to dee, boofing and wagging its tail at him, sniffing intently.]

Action

[d33tached]

[D33 starts a bit as the dog bounds toward him, but its excitement isn't hard to read, and as it gets closer the smallest of smiles breaks out on D33's face. He can only assume that the man following him is this "Archie" he's been speaking to. Still, he doesn't wait for permission to lean down and run a hand over the dogs head, still smiling, however cautious that smile is.]

Hello, there...

[He's talking to Mightyena.]

Re: Action

[h2no]

[he fully expected this, tbh. mightyena is a distraction tactic. get dunked on.

mightyena pants happily, licking at dee's face.]

Seem familiar, at all?

[d33tached]

[D33 scrunches up his nose at the licking, but he doesn't exactly look displeased - he almost laughs.]

I, ah--

No, no I'm afraid not.

He...certainly looks unlike-- Well, what I imagine a dog to look like.

[Not that he can really...remember any dogs that he might have seen. Aside from the dog that had been in his room this morning.]

What did you say his name was?

[h2no]

Don't worry about it, then. His name is Mightyena.

[it boofs when it hears its name.]

He's from my world, so he's a lot smarter than the dogs here. Ain't that right?

[d33tached]

[Ah, that's right. Everyone here comes from a different world - try wrapping your head around that for the second time.

[Oddly enough, though, D33 is having a much easier time doing so this time around.]

I see.

[He continues giving the Good Scritches.]

He is quite endearing.

[Glancing up at Archie now, he straightens.]

That would make you Archie, then. It is nice to meet you.

[Er...]

Again...I suppose.

[h2no]

[mightyena licks his hands, even when he's done. it just goddamn loves those scritches dude.]

Yep! S'me. [he suddenly realises d33 doesn't remember what he did and stalls for a moment, but he's not gonna drop that on the poor guy. not the time. probably not ever the time.] Do you, uh, remember what kind of food you like? 'Cause I don't actually know. I guess... twinkies? You had twinkies once.

[d33tached]

[Twinkies, Twinkies...]

I...think I might know what those are, actually.

Something like a cake?

[Of all the things to remember. Jesus Christ, Dee.]

[h2no]

[that makes him laugh.]

That's right! Ha!

[OF ALL THE FUCKING THINGS, DEE.]

Well, we can go to a place that does cake and tea. That sounds up your alley.

[d33tached]

[The man considers it for a moment, then nods.]

I was looking into it, actually. There seems to be a Café not too far from here. The ":Re Café", I believe it's called.

Rather strange name...

[h2no]

Ah... we can go there if you want, but...

[this is awkward. he doesn't want to pull dee away from kaneki, but...?? what should he do.]

The guy you woke up to this morning works there. He's called Kankeki.

[d33tached]

Ah. [D33 furrows his brow a bit at that - what are the odds?

[It's clear that he feels a bit awkward when it comes to that topic as well, the way he shifts around and clears his throat.]

Kaneki, yes. We spoke briefly of him before.

What do you know of the man?

[D33's already mentioned his suspicions that the two are romantically involved, somehow. Talk about awkward.]

[h2no]

He owns the café, you work there. He's really nice and friendly-- you were... are? Really fond of him. You two get on real well.

[he doesn't actually know much about kaneki, but whatever.]

[d33tached]

Given the nature of our relationship-- Well, what I assume of it...

[His voice trails off there as he furrows his brow, scratching thoughtfully (maybe a little awkwardly) at the back of his head.]

Truly, I can't recall a thing about the man. But he did leave me with the impression that we are...fond of each other, as you've said.

He did seem quite friendly at the very least.

[Is that an...understatement?]

[h2no]

[god okay fuck dancing around it.]

I'm pretty sure you're together. Romantically. I don't know much beyond that because I don't tend to pry and frankly don't care.

[he shrugs. that's a little bit of a lie he does care about d33 and kaneki but only in the capacity he hopes they're happy together.]

If you wanna avoid him, that's fine, but you're gonna have to talk to him eventually.

[d33tached]

That would be my assumption as well. He kissed me this morning.

[There's a bit of humor in his voice as he says it, though he doesn't quite laugh. It's just a bit comical, looking back on it as all. Strange, though. Terribly strange.]

Perhaps I will speak with him later, then. If it is true that we are...[How to say this?]...involved, I suppose I owe him that much.

[Also, he's terribly curious about the man.]

[h2no]

Aw.

[THAT'S!! CUTE!!!]

I know I'm also just some random guy, but you can stay in my spare room, if you want. If going back'll be too awkward.

[d33tached]

[Even in D33's uncharacteristically amicable state, the aw is a little...embarrassing, maybe? Talk about awkward. So he looks away and clears his throat a bit, nodding.]

Perhaps that would be for the best, yes.

[h2no]

It's up to you, alright? If you wanna go back at all just say and I'll take you right back. I'm not tryin' to keep you.

[he frowns.]

That would be weird.
