[Gokudera knows that at least Larry favors Monika. The familiar is clearly having a good time with her, flapping his little fin/paws against the table in delight.]
Ah that would be the second fox familiar someone has offered to trade for him!
[Not that he would trade. His familiar is the one creature he’s always wanted to see. Larry reminds him not to take everything too seriously, and to get excited over mysteries. He’s absolutely vital to Gokudera’s well-being! As cute as fox-familiars are, he doesn’t feel any sort of connection with them.]
[A different sort of creature entirely! He wouldn’t say they are common, but their humans tend to be so tired of the mischief the familiars get up to.]
That’s not so rude, I think… I’d be quiet, too until I got closer to someone.
[He shrugs.]
But I’m not sure. Larry here has only ever spoken when he’s pretending to be me. He casts illusions and it’s all tricks and him copying words I’ve said.
No no, he's just rude. Wait, I'll see if I can summon him...
[ She took her phone once more and typed something on it. Seconds later? A pink nine-tailed fox appeared on the table. It was rather small, the size of a cat. And it looked very grumpy.
Maybe the grumpiness came from those Google Glasses he was wearing on Monika's request. Noticeably, his central tail had a cute white ribbon tied into a neat little bow— Strikingly similar to the one holding together Monika's hair. ]
There you are, Pink Fox!
[ And immediately, he leaped off the table, went under it and laid down to sleep. ]
[Gokudera looks stunned. The familiar is so cute! Seeing it makes him miss his kitten. Uri in this world is just a young leopard, no longer a kitten extension of his spirit. He’s clearly adoring this creature and then he blinks at Monika’s name for it, and the fox moving to sleep beneath the table.]
Does he maybe not… like cute things? Despite being so cute, he maybe doesn’t want to seem that way?
[Maybe he’s wrong, but the creature is probably not just cute. It’s adorned in a cute way, having a cute name, and it’s pink. His Uri is also cute and only seems to get aggravated when he is affectionate towards him.]
[ Don't be fooled. Beneath that thin veil of cuteness hides a most vile creature: a grumpy and always grouchy fox! Monika shook her head at his suggestion anyway. ]
Then why does he ask for petting all the time?
[ She looked down at the now sleeping fox and looked obviously very annoyed. ]
Pink Fox isn't even his true name, you know... He's refused to ever tell me his name.
[ She's telling you, he's a total little shit. Regardless, she smiles afterwards-- ]
Anyway, it was nice having a drink together. [A chuckle.] Hopefully the revelation of my amnesia back then and the familiar adventures weren't too weird, ahaha!
[Gokudera gives an exasperated sigh. He won’t believe Pink Fox is a little shit. He’s not a person, so of course wouldn’t understand manners. But, who knows? Only Monika.
The silver-haired boy would try to befriend most any creature.]
It’s not been weird at all.
[First time he’s ever met anyone with amnesia, though.]

He looks up at the pendant, clearly impressed. Gokudera brushes his hands off and returns to the table.]
I’ve never seen him make anything like that!
[Larry blows a bubble at Gokudera, and it just starts to orbit his head.]
no subject
[ She wants to have that. Besides now she really has a reason to think maybe she really is special. She laughed at the bubble orbiting his head. ]
If you're ever interested in a fox familiar, I'll happily trade ahaha!
[ Not that you could trade familiars, alas... ]

[ Especially hers. He's nowhere to be found... And he really does what she needs. But that doesn't change one unalienable fact-- ]
Mine is so rude... [She sighed and raised a finger.] He's able to speak, but for the longest time he hid it from me just so I would pet him more.

Because it probably feels good? Doesn’t mean he wants everything that goes along with it, right?
[His gaze follows Monika’s and… poor sleepy pink fox.]
Have you tried different names?
no subject
[ She smiled deviously at the poor fox sleeping beneath the table, then looked back up at him. ]
Needless to say, he appreciated it even less, ahaha. Who knows, maybe he'd actually like you if he didn't go to sleep right away.
[ Trade, please... ]
no subject
I’ll assume he likes me until he tells me otherwise, but I’ll allow him the space and time to tell me.
Is he nocturnal?
no subject
No no. He just sleeps whenever we need him.
