the true shitpost is the friends we made along the way

[RNG said stables, so guess that's where they are now! At some point, when Yamato wanders into the area, he will find Ichinose sighing wistfully at the cats.

When she notices him, still a respectable distance away:]

... Hello, Yamato-kun. Have you ever owned a pet?

[ this is so funny yamato is always here for dogs. and that means he is, currently, hanging out with one of the sheep herding dogs. there's something a little wistful from him, too ]

Ah...no. I don't have the time or space for a pet back home. I really wanted one as a kid, though. What about you, Ichinose-san?

[ he sees how she is looking at cats!! ]

Aw, that's too bad... If only we had the time to housebreak one of the dogs, then you could make your dream a reality.

[From Ichinose's end, there's just... a general sense of emotional numbness? Like when you've been sad for so long, you become numb to it. It's fine.]

I had a cat once... until she died. That was when I was little, though. I guess that's why I liked having Kissa-chan and Frumpkin-kun around.

[What if they try to bring more pets into fall dorm, anyway. What if...]

It's alright. It's better for them to be out here.

[ ichinose, your depression? yamato pets the dog and lets it run off into the distance with all the insane sheepdog energy it has before he walks over a little closer. there's vague concern and curiosity coming from him now?? ]

Maybe we could grab one of the cats. Since Frumpkin's gone, Kissa must be lonely.

Oh, right, poor Kissa-chan...

[Don't worry about it, bro. Just ignore it like Ichinose does.]

Though, aren't cats harder to train than dogs?

You don't really need to train them that much, do they? They go in the litterbox on their own...?

[ he has not owned a SINGLE pet. ]

... Yes, after you've trained them to accept the litterbox. And if they don't like the type you're using, you're out of luck.

[yamato at least READ]

Not to mention, they can wander away and never come back.

[ he's illiterate and also never wanted to own a cat ]

Why do people even keep cats if it's that hard?

Hmm... They're cute?

[helpful!]

... That's true.

[ he can admit to that much?? and also, the irony here is he is a cat even now that he is not nyamato ]

We could probably still get one for the dorm.
