GOD DAMMIT, THATโS CUTE.
Never in her life had Hoshi Meratai seen somebody so emotional over a game.
Hoshi looked over at Jotaroโs words, lookingโฆ confused, and a bit worried. She hugged her new jellyfish plushie a bit closer between her arms and against her chest as her hands remained occupied with her switch, and when she saw just what had him in such ruinโฆ oh, she had to laugh. She couldnโt help it.
โOh, Lolly! Isnโt she adorable? She looks so cute and sweet, I wanna pet her headโฆ here, look.โ
A smaller, gentler hand held out her own device, on which was one of her own villagers, Zucker the takoyaki ball octopus.
โHis name is Zuckerโฆ heโs my favorite, he looks like a takoyaki ball! I thought it was weird at first, but then I learned that octopi are carnivorous, so it isnโt too weird, I suppose.โ
โโฆareโฆ you alright?โ
He already knew about Zucker, seeing as sheโd mentioned it over their messages, but seeing it in person really solidified how...cutesyย all the characters were.
With a huff, Jotaro drags his hat over his eyes, purely out of habit -- Like hiding how happyย seeing such a cute little animal made him feel. Fuck depression, man, this was like injecting happiness straight into his veins.
โIโm fine,ย it just caught me off guard....Theyโre very........endearing.โ
Endearing was an understatement, but he wasnโt one to overstate how he felt by any means.
โI think...I like Teddy best..But I saw another very good one.โ He nods.ย โA hamster. Called Apple.โ Pointing at his own game, he moves his character a little to the side to reveal said hamster singing alongside to the radio happily, doing a little dance.
God dammit, thatโs cute.
