[S-Shush! He's totally capable of it! On occasion. Sometimes. Rarely.

It really helps his case that there's something to distract him from the matter at hand, on top of having gotten back his precious outfit so he's not so combative anymore. If he can manage that, then maybe one day they'll be able to talk more openly about things like her ability to find him no matter where he is.

With Hiyori now properly dressed, he can look at her properly again, smiling as the catfish kittens swarm around him, climbing and falling off of his lap, some playing with his boots now that his toes are hidden.

They really aren't so bad when they're not stealing people's clothes. Hell, he could see them making nice pets if someone wanted to try taming one. It almost looks like he's considering it when Hiyori calls off their playtime, earning a pout from him.]

What? Already? Do we have to go so soon? [Like a child, he is, hugging one of them to his chest as he stares up at her with big, doe eyes.] ....do you think we can come back tomorrow? We could bring them some blankets to trade for the clothes.
