[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.]
[Ack, no! You weren't supposed to go back in there, dammit! Fine. He'll just...pet Cham-P instead then. Since he's the only one still sticking around. What have you been getting up to on his shoulder anyway, big guy?]
So can you just tap anything or does it have to be something they're close to? They didn't do anything when you tapped your shoulder.
[He actually kind of dozed off there. He jumps a tiny bit at the initial petting, but oh hey please continue.]
The closer to them you tap, the better if they cannot see your fingers. They need to be able to hear the sound and on certain surfaces, such as with clothing, that sound can be muffled. Should your fingers be in their line of sight, you can generally lead them with the simple gesture of tapping alone as well, even if it does not make a sound.
If they are further away from you, such as across the room, other techniques should be employed to be sure they will come to you.
[Hello San-D. Hamdad is glad to see you and is giving you a copious amount of pets and gentle finger scratching while you are here.]

[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
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

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.]
