[ Hana knew that a lot of people did end up adopting animals last month during that festival - but somehow, with two robotic lions already around, she hadn't thought that Shiro would get one, too. After she'd learned about it and then thought about it, though, it started to make sense. Shiro definitely struck her as a dog person, and -
a dog would probably help with his stress, just like Pacchan was helping with hers.
It was Hana that suggested that they could watch some movies that night, too, after the dogs got introduced to each other. After completing the maze at the Hygge festival she received a copy of the movie she'd starred in at home and it felt a little random, given that she knew other people were getting more... sentimental things. But after rewatching it, Hana was filled with fond memories of filming and getting to do something completely different from both gaming and piloting - so she supposed that was why it was her 'sentimenta' present. Now she wanted to share it with Shiro, along with some other movies. Why not?
Hana asked Pacchan to sit as they waited for someone to answer the door. Obedience was still a work in progress, but definitely going somewhere. When Shiro would open the door, she'd smile and wave. ]
Hiya, Takashi! Say hi, Pacchan.
[ Pacchan's way of saying hi was apparently to break from her sit and hop up onto her hind legs to try and get pets from this new human! ]
[That may have been part of it. A dog was good therapy, wanting to play and snuggle. The lions were sympathetic, but they were just too much in their paladin's head. It was almost like having another person than the unconditional love of a pet.
He opened the door and was almost immediately greeted by the smaller dog bouncing on its hind legs wanting attention from the stranger. He smiled, crouching to pet the dog on the head]
Hello, Hana. And hello to you too, Pacchan.
[He stepped back from petting the dog, holding the door open for them]
Come on in. Youta, come say hello.
[Youta came over, peering over at them. More peoples?]
[ When Youta made his appearance, Pacchan was immediately interested, and she went about sniffing the puppy for the dog equivalent of a human handshake. Introductions over, Pacchan kept bouncing on her legs, this time at the young puppy, her tail wagging in excitement - she wants to play!
Hana, meanwhile, steppe closer to Shiro and tried to go for a half-hug with one arm - since the other was preoccupied with holding Pacchan on her leash - as she stepped into the house. ]
Thanks for inviting us over. It's good to see you!
[Oh look another dog! Youta was very happy about this, sniffing with his tail wagging enthusiastically. If there had been lamp nearby he might have knocked it over with that wagging tail. When Pacchan started bouncing, Youta crouched down in play bow. Youta wanted to play!
Shiro gave her a one armed hug as well, smiling]
No problem. Why don't her off the leash so they can play.
[Black seemed to understand that these organic creatures were fragile and pretty much spent more time observing them so even though Black was "awake", Shiro wasn't concerned]
[ Hana's expression melted into something completely gushy when she saw how Youta and Pacchan seemed to already get along. How adorable! ]
Awww.
[ He didn't need to tell her twice, though, because she was already pulling away from him and leaning over so she could take the leash off of Pacchan's collar, effectively freeing the pups to play. ]
There you go! Be nice to Youta, okay Pacchan?
[ Hana then looked around until she found Black, ever so majestic in that corner of his. She waved at the lion. ]
