Hmm... You're pretty lucky to get something cool like that for your birthday. I did have a set of familiars back home, but they're real handful. Pani and Gil were their names...

[There's a bit an awkward look as Kotarou thinks about them. He really missed them, but that was extremely hard to admit considering how much trouble they put him through.]

I ended up finding them over getting 'em as a gift. I mean, they helped me out in the worst of times... But still! They'd always make a big mess in my room and stuff.
