4-choo!

Phone

Hello? Hello? You know, I've been hearing a lot about Christmas lately, is that another holiday? I like holidays, Mayfield has a lot of them, it's really nice I think. Oh, oh, and I got a dog! He's a dog from back home, I used to talk to him sometimes! I wonder if maybe my friends will show up next. Maybe they'll be here in time for Christmas! Wouldn't that be nice?

Action; Anywhere

[So after making that kinda-sorta-random phone call, Viki has decided to try walking her new pet dog. She doesn't have a leash or anything, but that's okay because he's looking perfectly well-behaved walking by her side.]

Where do you think we should go next, Kogoro?

[And for an answer she gets an "A-e-i-o-u!" Yes that is a bark.

On a side note, she's definitely visiting a certain two houses on Goldberg Street. Yaaay~]

[Does it really count as him doing chores if he gave up on them and has no inclination to return to finishing them once he's done sitting around?

Not that it matters now. There's a horrible, horrible basket dog leaping through the snow.]

...please be another hallucination. [Nope, there is a real live Kogoro on him now.] Ah!

[waffuport]

[He attempted them at all!! This counts.

Oh good he caught you now Viki can catch up. Just look at that happy smiling doggy face, it is attempting to lick you!]

Oh, Caesar! Caesar look, I got Kogoro, isn't that great?

[commentboxtroll]

[He drew the short straw!!!

Caesar is in the midst of a battle to keep a doggy tongue from getting doggy slobber all over his face when Viki catches up.]

So I noticed. Call him off already!

[waffuport]

Oh, oh, right, um--Kogoro, get off!

[...At least he stopped licking?]

[commentboxtroll]

[So long as he's not attacking his face anymore, the dog can remain in his lap or wherever he's decided to be.]

Figures this place would dump one of the Castle's dogs here. Please tell me this is the only one.

[Or was Kogoro only the distraction while the rest of the pack sneaks up to finish him off?]

[waffuport]

It's just him! Oh, unless maybe you got a dog too and you haven't noticed yet. Do you think maybe you'll get a dog tomorrow?

[Kogoro will cheerfully sit on your lap and wag his tail and stuff.]

[commentboxtroll]

No. I ended up with books. The last thing I need is another living creature to take care of...

[And since Kogoro is behaving, here, he'll even pat the dog's head.]

[waffuport]

Ooh. Are they interesting books?

[Headpats will be countered with handlicking.]

[commentboxtroll]

A bunch of books from the castle's library, that's all. Mostly history ones.

[He cannot escape them, can he? He frowns at Kogoro, but doesn't ward off the licking this time. So long as it isn't aimed at his face, whatever.]
