vingt-six † puppies come in all kinds

[ex_seventh238]

[Phone - Public]

Good morning! This call is addressed to anyone who might be interested in keeping a pet. I have... a number [because hell naw she's not going to say 15 on the phone provided a few didn't get lost along the way already] of Scottish Terrier puppies that are looking for new homes. They're around a year old, purchased at the pet store here a few months back. The previous owner can no longer take care of them, so I was hoping that maybe others would like to adopt them into a different household instead. They're docile around people and enjoy playing outside a lot, they're also all fit and in good health. [Not a direct result of being intimidated at will, forbidden from showing their muzzle in the house when a certain household member is also around, and forced to look for their own food half the time because the food's limited in the backyard, nope... THESE PUPPIES DON'T HAVE SPADES TO SPOIL THEM ANYMORE, but they do look ok and they're drone animals so no one can tell. SHHHH....] If you'd like to meet them in person, please feel free to drop by at 1125 Taylor Road at any time this afternoon. Thank you for your time!

[Action]
I. Taylor Road ;; Afternoon
[there is like

a dozen or something of Scottish Terrier puppies wrestling with each other on the front lawn. Ciel's somehow managed to gather them together after all, what a miracle... She doesn't look too enthusiastic about this, though, adjusting her glasses as she gives the animals a flat stare.

Close by is an angelic boy dressed in white with short and smooth black hair loitering by the fence. ...Oh wait, maybe that boy is the reason for her indifferent mood. Ciel's never happy when Merem (splitthebaby) is around, is she? But Merem at least seems to be enjoying himself with the puppies. It's not like he can talk to animals and is here to judge any potential pet owners because he cares more about drone animals than humans or anything, NOPE

Approach?]

((OOC: Joint prompt with Merem Solomon, tags will be separate to make it easier for everyone o/))

II. Church ;; Evening
[Business as usual. If the Sister isn't in the front pretending to be reading the Bible but actually working on less holy things busying over something, you can probably find her in the back kitchen. The lights are all on there, easily noticeable from the side windows to any outsider. That means the place is open for tea and sweets and dubious sound spiritual advice for any wary of mind. Got nothing especially interesting planned for the night? Why not drop by? Everyone's secretly heretical anyway.]

III. Church ;; Night
[It's past 10pm, and the lights are out. ...That is, except for a very dim one placed above the door to the back entrance of the Church. A robed figure slinks out, headed towards the small cluster of woods past the storage shed. It's late and no one really comes to the Church except for select losers. Yeah, this may look fishy, but Ciel can totally take a few steps around her own Mayfieldian natural habitat without getting accosted, right.

...Maybe...]

IV. Around town ;; Late Night
[Patrol as usual. As we know, old habits can be hard to break. It's not like anything exciting ever really happens after midnight in Mayfield, but heck, Ciel HAS gotten a few kicks in the past stalking vampires and scaring them without actually doing anything because lol OP vampire hunter with all her regains back. GIVE THEM A TASTE OF THEIR OWN MEDICINE, HAH.

...ER, that is. She'll be swinging by the streets, traveling by hopping lamp posts and roofs and etc as usual, gonna stop by the park and downtown a bit to ultimately end up at Makeout Point. The view is nice, alright... And there just might be something up there, that she may or may not wanted to check up on. Also out for a midnight stroll? You might just run into her! ...Or she might end up stalking you for a bit. Hey, she never denied her line of work to be questionable...]

[ Rena will be skipping along trying to find the house she had heard about. ]

Hauu... Rena heard you have free puppies, is it true? Is it not too late?

np i will backtag 5ever 8|b

[It's not hard to miss!! Given that... there are effectively 15 puppies frolicking about on the front lawn........

--okay maybe a dozen or less, some were fortunately adopted into better hands, but there's definitely still a good number left.]

Oh, not at all! A few have been picked up, but you're well on time, miss. [case in point: just... look.] Rena-san, is it? Is there any that catches your eye?

yays ;3;

[takechuhome]

Yep, that is me. Um, um... everyone-- t-though, that is isn't right Rena knows. Do you have a recommendation, do you?

[ex_seventh238]

[She chuckles faintly.]

Honestly, I wouldn't mind if you want more than one, but I need to at least be sure that you'll have the means to take care of them properly, Rena-san. It takes time and money to look after pets, right? So please don't overexert yourself with more than you can handle, for both the puppies' and your own sake. As for that... Well, what type would you like? Drone pets all behave rather predictably, but there are subtle differences. One eats more than the norm, for example. That one over there sleeps a lot, haha. [Pointing towards one snoozing under the porch. She knows because she sees it at the same spot pretty often... The rare one that she leaves alone because it doesn't bother her, whelp] The two over there are probably among the most active ones, they're often by the park playing with other animals. [Looking aside towards the 3 roughhousing by the center of the yard... yeah that's gonna be a LOT of puppies no matter how you look, u_u] Mm, so what're you looking for?

[takechuhome]

Hauu... that's true. Well it's hard to choose. They're all so adorable, miss. Though, I guess, Rena will choose um... one of the active ones?

[ex_seventh238]

The playful ones? Hmm... The two over there, I believe! [she'll gesture towards the ones roughhousing on the middle of the lawn there. The two pups are currently rolling over each other 'wrestling' in the grass...] If you leave them outside, don't be surprised to find them at the park. Would you like to say hi? [ie: go up and play with them a bit to get a better feel?]

[takechuhome]

Yes! Yes! Rena would love to say hi to them!

[ Rena will trot over to them with a smile. Oh how she wanted to have a pet to cuddle and hold. ]

Hello little ones~ How are you today? C-can I pet you, can I?

[ she'll cautiously reach out toward to puppies. ]

[ex_seventh238]

[SHE CAN HAVE ALL OF THEM...

though it's unrealistic and irresponsible yes, whelp

Anyway, Ciel'll just watch aside and fervently hope Rena does take one home fondly while the younger girl gets acquainted with her pack of Scottish Terrier pups! The two are still roughhousing after her approach, but they roll off each other at her call. Both stop to blink at her once, before slowly trotting over to sniff her hand. Drone pets ARE rather docile and nonviolent, much like drone people, so there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

It won't be long, before one pulls away, sits down on its hind legs, and bark once at her. ...Maybe it's saying hi back?]

...Haha. They seem to be taking to you well, Rena-san!

[takechuhome]

[ ARMY OF PUPPIES--I MEAN...

Very irresponsible, indeed. ]

H-h-hauu~ Well are you the cutest little thing~

[ She'll reach out her hand and rub the puppy's head with sparkles in her eyes. The urge to just reach out and grab it rising. ]

[ex_seventh238]

[as long as you don't seriously try to train them into becoming killer hounds you plot to unleash upon your worst enemy... HER 'HUSBAND' TRIED THAT AND LOOK WHERE IT GOT HIM...

--oh petting is affection and attention and these things are good. YES PLZ PET THEM MORE the puppies will eagerly wag their tails and let Rena give all the pettings!! just give in already and grab one IT'S NOT LIKE THEY'LL SAY NO...]

[takechuhome]

[ o-oh. she'll keep that in mind then... ]

I-I've made my decision! Rena will take this one!

[ Rena will grab one of the puppies with glee. ]

Rena will promise to take care of youu, yes yes.

[ex_seventh238]

[actually please don't, there's already a problem if such a thought is to cross the mind of any sane person in the first place...]

My, that was quick, but maybe it was this easy because it was fated, don't you think? [don't mind her

beaming like the sun]

You seem to be good around animals in general, Rena-san. I'm sure that you will, no doubt! Ah, the previous owner gave him a name, but I'm sure that we'll all be okay with it if you rename him now. You wouldn't mind that, would you?

[takechuhome]

R-Really do you think so? Well, Rena has always wanted a pet, so maybe... maybe it is fated.

T-Thanks so much! No I don't mind renaming him, hehe. Hmm, how about Kenta? [ after KFC dude ]

[ex_seventh238]

Oh, I wouldn't claim to know about forces higher than us, that would be like inviting bad luck. ...But just maybe, you never know! [--wait isn't that what you've just done ciel

...

please ignore that] Either way, this is a good chance, so I'm glad that you're happy about the outcome too. You're quite welcome, Rena-san, and that sounds like a great name! ['Kenta' isn't that uncommon though, so the reference flies over her head. The puppy does bark once in response, wagging its tail while still being suspended in Rena's arms.] Haha, I think he likes it, too!

[takechuhome]

E-eh? Bad luck? Rena wouldn't want to invite bad luck, that's... well bad.

Hauu! Kenta, Kenta~ You're mine now, yes you are. Hehe. [ She'll rub her cheek against the dog with a smile, this was a wonderful day for her. ]
