You'll eventually get used to having more than one cup a day. It is practically a requirement for growing up. [He glances at the kittens then and Mewpac sits patiently on the table, tail flicking back and forth playfully while she waits for Luna's kitten to approach. When she gets close enough, Mewpac lifts a paw to bat at the kitten's head without actually attacking.]
I envy that. Wait until you hit college and then talk to me about energy. [No John's just exhausted for other reasons. He can't help but laugh a little as Mewpac meows plaintively and immediately moves to bat at something on the table for Luna's kitten to chase after.]
They're both still little and Mewpac's a spoiled weirdo. I doubt they'd fight unless they had reasons to fight and they're both pretty safe for now.
Probably for the best. You don't know what these guys can pick up on the streets. [Though now he's staring at Mewpac.] ...man I did not think about the upkeep of a cat. [But alas. The hot chocolate comes by for the two of them and John tosses out a casual "thanks" before pushing one of the mugs across the table to her.]
But at least you're doing your best to look after her. Cats live for a pretty long time, too, so you're kind of stuck with a friend for a while.
If anyone did my roommate did, but I think so. It's hard to keep up with his schedule sometimes but we definitely talked about it. Don't worry.
[Mewpac seems used to this method and she stops wrestling with Luna's kitten, meowing inquisitively before she gets up and pads across the table to her.]
[SHe'll keep wiggling her fingers as she straightens up a bit, looking around. Normally Luna didn't care much about consequences, but she liked animals and didn't want to scare the ones in the store.]
I can show you? But it might freak out some of the pets here.
So you know this means you have to show me when you leave, don't you? You can't just lead with something like that and then not show me at all. He disappears into thin air? [Like a sylladex? That would be cool and kind of weird.]
[Luna rolled her eyes, then looked around. They were sort of out of the way. She reached out to place one arm over both kittens to keep them from jumping, and then brought her other to her chest, fingers balled into a little fist as her eyes closed.]
[A shimmering swirl of dark miasma sprinkled with shimmering light swirls up from her chest and around her hand, and then she gestured, and the glow followed her hand, the smokey mass floating out to an empty space by their table where it roiled and expanded out into a larger cloud, then vanished in a burst, revealing her weird dog, who looks around slowly before flopping down on the ground, staring up at the two of them.]
[Luna opened her eyes after a few seconds, sucking in a breath, and looked over at her dog, then at John.]
[UH. He doesn't jump in surprise or anything but he does stare for a moment as he watches Luna summon the dog and he glances at the creature first before he glances at her again.]
A summonable dinosaur is probably the most badass thing I've heard of. [There's a laugh then.] But okay. So your dog thing. When did you start being able to summon him?
You think he's a part of you then? Like a piece of your soul or something. [Mewpac's curiously watching the dog even though she definitely does not approach? That thing is terrifying to her, she'll stay right where she's at. John, on the other hand, leans forward to get a better look.]
I know, it's a weird question, but there are a bunch of people here who can produce summons. It's the one thing that I'm familiar with around here that I don't have experience with myself. They say that their summons are a part of them though. [So this is now a doggie staring contest, neat.]

But it can be fun.
[Luna's kitten finally notices Mewpac and rolls back onto her feet, slowly approaching the other kitten.]

Yeah...I was worried they'd fight or something...
[Her own kitten froze at the face bap, then lifted her hand to bap Mewpac right back softly.]
Or fight less...uh...
[Okay this was kind of adorable.]

Wait, didn't you get yours shots and stuff?

I have zero idea how to take care of a cat. At least my dog disappears.
