[Well good, as long as you're happy, Cham-P. That's all that matters. And now he can go back to petting San-D who is quickly becoming his favorite because what a well behaved hamster. Look at you. Precious.]
Huh. And here I thought he was just being a curious little shit.
[Please remember his chief animal experience is with dogs and the occasional stray dojo cat. He knows nothing of rodents, much less how they show affection.]
[You think she's precious now. You should see her when the boys get on her nerves. Or, god forbid, Gundam does. There is hell to pay if you upset this little angel.]
Oh the curiosity was there, make no mistake. For Maga-Z to find an area to nap, however...
There must be something that they sense about you that welcomes them. I will have to observe you further to understand this anomaly you possess.
[He'll try not to do that...he'd hate to invite her furry wrath upon him. Not that he believes hamsters are capable of having wraths, but whatever.]
[But right, animals are supposedly good at picking up on this sort of thing, aren't they. Clearly, they can tell that he has a kind heart under that prickly, asshole coating of his. He has kind of the opposite problem of Peko...]
I think you're looking way too much into it... [Anomaly, really? Such a strong word...] And you make me sound like I'm some kind of lab rat or something when you say shit like that.
[Observing him, cultivating him...stop making him sound like a middle school science project or something, jeez!!]
[Ask to see what's under his bandages sometime, Kuzuryuu, if you really don't believe hamsters can have wraths.]
Hardly a lab rat.
[He gives this some thought.]
I would be tempted to use something more akin to acolyte or disciple, but you do not quite match up to such standards. However I assure you it is more humane than that. Worry not.
[Jeez it's not like he's experimenting on you or something sort-of-friend. And no comment on the looking into it too much apparently.]
[Is that a good thing or a bad thing, he's really not sure. Because he hardly wants to be an acolyte or a disciple but at the same time he doesn't like being told he's not up to snuff about something.]
I'm not worried, I'm just saying you could've worded that better. That's all.
[If you don't want to be either of those things accept it as good because if you complain, he will just make an effort to train you to become one of said things.]
Had I worded it any differently, I would have been lying to you. Observation is the most accurate description to use.
[What a liar. He's just using this as an excuse to hang out with Kuzuryuu more. If he's got an excuse like this, there's no way he can be turned down, after all.
...okay, half a liar. He may actually be serious about watching him for any power growth.]
Until they feel as though they're well rested or ready to wake back up. Sometimes it's only a few minutes, but they have been known to nap for an hour before.
[He watches the other boy for a moment.]
If you would like me to remove Maga-Z, I can do so.
[It's okay if you wanted to though. San-D knows you'll come back to pet her again. She knows she has you wrapped around her little finger! Of course, it's not like she can communicate this, nor would she if she could, so yes good. Continue petting her, human.]
When you desire to leave, or wish for him to vacate your suit, I will help. Though you could also likely coax him out on your own, should you wish.
There are a number of individuals who could use this information, turning my Four Dark Devas of Destruction against both myself and the world around us. Their power is great, desirable even, and knowing how to lead them away would only be the first step in taking it.
[This is...actually pretty serious to him, judging by the tone of his voice. Maybe he's not actually worried about their powers being taken, but at the very least the idea of someone leading them astray isn't something he likes the thought of.]
[Wow, Gundam. He actually takes promises very seriously!! You don't break promises. There's hell to pay if you do.]
What, like this? [He raises his right hand and double taps his left shoulder with his thumb. He tries to make it a firm tap like Gundam said but it's probably not quite loud enough to achieve what it's supposed to.]
[Kuzuryuu shivers a little at the stirring. That feels so weird on his neck, please don't, Maga-Z...]
Okay...
[But alright...he'll give it another try. This time, he uses his index, middle, and ring fingers all together. Because surely it'll be louder if he just adds more fingers. And taps a little harder.]
[Sorry, he's stirring again! But this time that stirring leads to some curious scurrying, and a little head peeks out of his collar. You rang? Did you need him for something? Do you have a treat maybe?! Curious, kind of excited sniffing!!
Gundam just smiles proudly. Like he's a father who just taught his kid to say "papa" or something.]
[Well at least he moved. It's just the stirring in one place on his neck that's really the weirdest. Especially when that place is his neck.]
[Oh but hey, look! It worked. Though don't look too excited, Maga-Z, he doesn't have anything for you... Well, actually...he supposes he can give you a little head scratch. Is that acceptable?]
[He laughs in a slightly amused "I can't believe that actually worked" sort of way.] What do you know... Is that really all it takes?
Now you see why it is so important to keep such a technique to yourself.
[He drops a hand down to the bench, giving it a few light taps and watching as San-D sniffs the air for a moment before hopping off Kuzuryuu's leg to investigate. She won't be gone for long though.]
It is one of the easiest ways to call creatures such as themselves, though of course it is not the only method they know.
[His are hamsters of many tricks!!! Maga-Z was very excited, but he's not disappointed that all he's getting is a head scratch. Because that is pretty okay and he gladly sits still for it. Though once Kuzuryuu is done he's going to scurry back into the suit scarf.]

and it's okay. San-D understands. It's not like this is the first time the dumb boys have pulled shit like this.]
An animal's trust is one of the greatest treasures you can receive, and it's shown in some of the smallest and simplest ways.
[Like playing in your fun arm tubes without worrying that you'll hurt them, or curling up in your suit scarf.]

[Whatever you say, Gundam. Whatever you say.]
Hey...how long do hamsters usually nap for, anyway?
[Like is Maga-Z going to go home with him or what. Is he even still napping back there?]
no subject
[He watches the other boy for a moment.]
If you would like me to remove Maga-Z, I can do so.
no subject
[He still has attention to give to San-D, okay? He can't leave in the middle of that.]
no subject

no subject
Really? After he didn't listen to me when I tried to get him out of my sleeve?
[I mean you saw how that went, didn't you, Gundam? Or were you too distracted by your speech.]
no subject
[WOW IT PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE OF YOU TO TELL HIM THIS EARLIER, GUNDAM.]
no subject
Well then what should I have done?
no subject
[Before he does anything though, he fixes Kuzuryuu with a very, very serious look.]
However, I expect you to keep this to yourself.
no subject
[He has an image to upkeep here. One that fuzzy, adorable hamsters kind of ruins.]

The space in front of your collar. Tap there three times with your finger or thumb. Make sure it is a firm enough tap to make a sound.
[To demonstrate, he uses his thumb to tap on his own shoulder, so Kuzuryuu can see how to do it.]
no subject
What, like this? [He raises his right hand and double taps his left shoulder with his thumb. He tries to make it a firm tap like Gundam said but it's probably not quite loud enough to achieve what it's supposed to.]
no subject
Close. It needs to be loud enough that he can hear it, however. You need a firmer tap to achieve that.
no subject
Okay...
[But alright...he'll give it another try. This time, he uses his index, middle, and ring fingers all together. Because surely it'll be louder if he just adds more fingers. And taps a little harder.]
