Baren's not looking over at Chuuya's thought bubbles, instead just pressing his face into his hand and trying to school himself out of his own irritation.]
Stupid. Stupid.
[Calm down, fucker. What is even going on? Ugh. I hate him.]
Tanuki, we're going.
[Tanuki does a confused little wiggle at that - are they leaving?]
[I don't know. Whatever, I've got a decent stash left if I can't sleep.
he's not looking at baren or the bubble, though, already stretching out on the couch and reaching for his phone. time to catch up on messages and shit.]
[Looking back at Chuuya as he is, Baren doesn't miss the bubble.
And he leaves it at that, shaking his head and walking out.
.... it's about twenty minutes later that Chuuya might hear the faint scratching of paws against a window, trying to nudge it open.
Tanuki fights against its weight as, much like his owner, he seems to have no personal boundary or respect for things that are meant to be closed off to him.]
[shut up he can hold one sided conversations with animals in his own home, let him live
tanuki's not wrong, chuuya is a sucker who catches him without complaint, smiling down at him.]
Just here for the attention, huh... well, I don't mind.
[though now that he's here without baren... chuuya's realizing he's not sure how to be responsible for this small animal beyond giving it affection? he'll need water, right? but- hm. he pulls his phone out to shoot baren a quick message.]
if you lost your tanuki he's back here btw, also what do I give him if he gets hungry?? the fuck does a tanuki eat anyway
[Chuuya is now in charge of a small furry animal. Thankfully, small furry animal is a fucking small genius since he's about 600 years old and is perfectly happy to just nuzzle against Chuuya and accept pets and attention.
As for the text - ]
leave the window open he'll wander out when he needs something to eat and security won't be a problem with him good night

So many mistakes were made.

[he doesn't want to let tanuki go though... chuuya sighs and gives him one more scratch behind the ears, before finally giving him a little nudge.]
See you whenever, I guess.
no subject
[That'll have to do for now because - I still don't have an answer for you.
And he shakes his head, standing up and letting Tanuki run over to scramble up his leg to sit on his shoulder.
Baren heads for the door, but also seems to hesitate.]
... you'll be okay, Chuu?
[Considering - what he remembered and all.]

[he knows it won't be baren, not with the noise and definitely not right now, so he has his knife in hand as he heads to check the window out...
but he immediately sets it aside when he sees what's outside, moving to go open the window for him.]
What're you doing back here, huh? Did Baren forget something?
no subject
but Baren is certainly not with him and Tanuki definitely doesn't seem to be poking around for much.
he'll just take a little leap off the windowsill onto chuuya, fully expecting to be caught.
he's here now.
(under baren's direction, but the wonderful thing about tanukis is that they can't give him away)]
