[The video feed cuts on with Gokudera sitting in a tattered living space. It looks like a giant cat has been using every piece of furniture as a scratching post.]

Is there a daycare somewhere in this place? Parents that miss looking after children? One of the kids from my world showed up. He’s five, and a pain in the ass. The Tenth and I have to go to school, so we need someone to look after Lambo while we’re unavailable.

[He clearly has his hands full. There’s a real leopard living in his little apartment, and he has his job and school. Lambo can’t be cooped up all day while he furthers his education. He’s considered no longer going to classes, but he’s not Lambo’s guardian!

Even if he’s been acting like it for a bit now, and trying to be sneaky about it.]

Most five year olds haven't attended school.

I think that's when they start.

Pet or familiar? Because...it seems like a bad idea to keep a leopard as a pet.

[bakudan_bambino]

Yeah, he hadn’t even started yet.

Pet. Gift from my boss. I can’t and will not get rid of him.

Even if it is a bad idea.

[disasdeer]

Ah.

Does your boss hate you?

[bakudan_bambino]

No. I’m just really unlucky.

Back home, the leopard was a kitten and an extension of my spirit. Here… just a leopard.

[disasdeer]

That's sure something. Do you have to keep it inside or something? Does no one around you have animal magic?

I've met a few leopards doing my work at home and they're always a bit... fiery, but not unreasonable.

I keep him inside, but I take him out to hunt while I train. Sometimes he doesn’t want to leave, so I bring him food. I don’t have animal magic, but my girlfriend does.

I think he just likes to upset me in particular.
