The pleasure was mine, Nonon-san. As I've said it's not often I get to play with other people, so even if it isn't perfect it's an experience worth having. I should be thanking you.
Oh! Yes, just a moment. [He's up on his feet and seems to linger.] Close your eyes please? [Once that's done, she'll hear him cross the room and a door seems to open. There's a cheerful bark and four paws beating against the floor as a friendly golden retriever nyooms across the parlor straight toward Nonon.]
[Antoinette is the friendliest dog, red bow tied nearly around her neck even as she continues showering Nonon with affection.]
I hope she does. I believe because I've ascended she has as well. [He sure hopes so.] She was a gift when I moved to Japan. We've been friends ever since.

Music is, perhaps, the most pure form of expression one can use. I think you may have improved the song actually. [Amused.] ...better?
no subject
I made the song worse, but I do feel a lot better. Thanks for playing along.
[ Her smile is sincere. ]

That's what I thought. Can I see your dog?

The only other time she looks as pure as she does now is with music, and she holds out her arms for the dog. ]
I love her already.
no subject
Her name is Antoinette. [He sounds very proud.] She's about three years old now.
no subject
[ Nonon lets her face be licked. Dogs get so many free passes with her, and Antoinette gets all the pets from her. ]
And she'll reign for many years yet to come. Isn't that right?
no subject
I hope she does. I believe because I've ascended she has as well. [He sure hopes so.] She was a gift when I moved to Japan. We've been friends ever since.

Who's the best dog? Antoinette is!! is the general attitude that Nonon faces Antoinette with. ]
I'd give her all the offerings, if she's now a god. [ That's an honest to god truth. ] Where did you move from?
no subject
I imagine she'd appreciate it. She's a bit spoiled. [So is her dad.] I lived in Paris for most of my life. Antoinette's family is from there as well.
no subject
Paris, huh? That's kind of nostalgic. My best friend's mother likes to go there a lot.
