is it too much to ask for a minute more

[health classroom]

[The egg-raising project is over, and most of the kids have either turned in the monsters they hatched to the Tamer organizations that lent them out or just kept them. Most of them also got... well, more impressive monsters. Kokoro, meanwhile, is still sitting in the classroom with. Well. Whatever this is oozing around on the table.]

I know people were talking to me about pets, but... what would I even feed you?

[library]

[That aside, finals are underway, and that means studying. Kokoro's been in here more often than not, and you can find her poring through books in the morning... or at night, having fallen asleep at one of the desks. Probably wake her up.]

Well, perhaps not something that big, it isn't a cat... I wonder how big they need? Or how big will fit in the room?

[hattersgonnahat]

Hmmm...

I guess it doesn't move around that much, so it doesn't need lots of space.

[stavros]

I know with things that climb, you can build up. Like mice. But if it doesn't climb, you must build sideways...

[hattersgonnahat]

[Thinking...] Does it climb?

[As she says this, another little critter trotted into the room, and sat down near the desk. Just to stare at the slime and sniff at it.]

[stavros]

[An air bubble rises up and pops on the slime, which doesn't seem to hurt it. It oozes cautiously away from the Eevee and makes a confused noise.]

Oh, a... fox? Though certainly better-behaved than a regular fox. Is that one yours?

[hattersgonnahat]

[The noise startled the Eevee a bit. It lifted its ears and head up to check out where the slime was going but it couldn't quite see it anymore.]

Yup!! Is what my egg hatched to. He's cute right?

[The Eevee looses some interest in the slime and makes a little yelp, while coming over to Puella. Most likely to demand pets and lap.]

...At least I think he's cute.

[stavros]

[The slime pauses and squishes back over to the centre of the desk.]

He certainly is, and much less chaotic than regular foxes. I wonder what sort of fox hatches from an egg?

[hattersgonnahat]

I don't know! I didn't think they could either. [Isn't that supposed to only be like a bird or reptile thing??]

[She wonders, and watches the slime again.] Did he come from a normal egg too?

[stavros]

It sort of looked like a rock, but it was warm... [She carefully pets it.] Magical eggs certainly are strange to get used to.
