[babbylon]

Who: Gilgamesh and everyone visiting Heaven's Feel!
When: 5/1—5/8
Where: Caissa, Heaven's Feel storefront
What: The grand opening of Heaven's Feel, Caissa's premier matchmaking service, has arrived! Stop by for food, drinks, and some friendly fun with your fellow Heroes! ...or maybe even pick up a date, who knows.
Rating: General audiences, except for Gil's threads because he was pretty much making out with everyone. Tread carefully.

Heaven's Feel



[Maybe you've heard, or maybe you haven't, but there's a new business in town. It's plastered everywhere, posted on the side of every building and shouted from the end of every street corner in Caissa. Heaven's Feel, Heaven's Feel, come fly with the angels at Heaven's Feel! Really, who writes something so cheesy? The owner must be a real piece of work, you think, yet there's something enticing about the sound of it...

If you do decide to stop by within the first week of May, you'll find a massive celebration awaiting you: the celebration of opening day! Eager workers wave down anyone who gets close, with offers of wine tasting, sweet treats, and even speed dating. The store's interior bustles with activity as visitors fill out cute little survey cards in hopes of a hook-up. The owner in question can be found mingling in the crowd, bartending, and drawing charcoal caricatures of couples for a nominal fee.

Overall, the atmosphere is one of excitement. Hop right in! There's plenty of room for lounging on the cushy furniture, and plenty of time to find your own hottie.

...or perfectly platonic friend. Look, we're not judging or anything.]

[ Hi, fellow wallflower. That's a lie, actually Setsuna is more interested in feeding the street cats. The cats are a lot more interesting than the people in the shop.

One of the cats suspiciously looks like Asuna; cute, caramel fur, and paired with hazel eyes. Setsuna is about to feed Asunya, currently about to lower a milk bottle to share with her. She looks excited. ]

[rollin]

[ It's weird. Yata has the strangest urge to pick the cat up and move her far, far away.

So he grabs her by the scruff of her neck. ]

Don't spoil the cats. They'll keep coming back, oi!

[quaria]

[ What are you, an employee?? Okay, no. Setsuna does feel bad after hearing that... But he'll take responsibility!! ]

I apologize... But I do intend to frequently return.

[ Return for Asunya, and keep feeding these cats himself. Next time, he'll even purchase actual cat food for them. ]

[rollin]

What does this look like, a petting zoo? Go find an alley and feed cats there.

[ Keeping the neighborhood cat-free, Yata Misaki. He's still holding the cat, by the way. ]

[quaria]

[ Nice, Yata.

>don't spoil the cats
>is spoiling a cat ]

I could not help it. They looked really hungry.

[ Look at Asunya, Yata. Look at her closely. Or listen to her, that works better. Her tiny stomach is growling! Asunya is also currently looking at the two of them with hopeless eyes. ]

this is late i'm so sorry

[rollin]

[ Look, Setsuna... fuck you! But Yata has a softer heart for the hungry Asunya, whom he now cradles in his arms. ]

... We'll look for somethin' at the back! Dunno if they'll take 'em through the front. This place is more people that cats.

[ Without waiting for him, Yata walks ahead.

Or so it seems. ]

Come on!

this is also late so i'm also sorry

[quaria]

[ Wow. Thanks, crow boy. :c

Ah... But it seems Yata changed his mind? He now has an accomplice on his side quest to feed the hungry cats. As the younger Hero walks on, he stands and follows suit.

Behind the two boys, the trail of hungry balls of fluff trots after them rather cheerfully. There's at least five cats, including Asunya, who are with them.

Hmm... "Look for something," though. Does Yata have a plan? Setsuna looks at him curiously, wondering what he means by that. All he has right now is a few bottles of milk... ]

it ok shh also *than cats wtf typos

[rollin]

[ Yata has... half a plan! There are other restaurants on this street, aren't there? So there must be other restaurants willing to give their leftovers to the cats here. Yata leads Setsuna to a back alley and grins at the first restaurant employee that walks out the buildings. It looks like he's from the Go sushi bar not too far from Heaven's Feel. ]

Hey! You got any leftovers? These cats are starving.

[ The man says he doesn't like feeding the cats. They just keep coming back! ]

uwoh yanachan /// and it's okay, i didn't even notice c':

[quaria]

[ Setsuna keeps quiet for the meantime, waiting to see how the employee will react to it. It looks like this person is waiter, judging from that outfit. At first, the waiter frowns at the suggestion... But that frown doesn't last.

The moment the waiter notices those cute little eyes staring altogether towards him, he too fell for their charms. These cats are pretty sneaky... That's why after embarrassingly responding to Yata, the waiter quickly enters the establishment to get whatever table leftovers and kitchen scraps that is available.

Setsuna can only watch more, as the waiter eventually reemerges and shoves trays of food at the two of them. There's more than enough for five cats! Asunya mewls cheerfully in Yata's arms, seemingly wanting to rejoice for their victory. ]

;u;

[rollin]

[ THESE CATS ARE TOO POWERFUL. They're somehow charming their way into Yata's heart too as they nibble on the leftover fish and rice. Before letting Asunya down, he gently strokes her soft head. All these cats are like, his children now. ]

Hehe... you're really like her, aincha? [ yata are you talking to the cats

He forgot Setsuna was here... ]

[quaria]

[ Yata's plan worked...! Setsuna is impressed. But before he could say anything, it's the younger boy who speaks first. Although... it doesn't seem to be addressed to him, so he falls into silence for the moment.

"Like her?" He wonders who the boy is thinking of, but doesn't ask as a sign of respect. He seems happy though, so that's good. For the meantime, he sets down the next tray so the cats can share that among themselves as well.

But judging from this scene, it appears that Setsuna has made a comrade in his quest to feed these cats. He doesn't even mind being forgotten; he simply chooses to seat himself somewhere as he observes the happy critters.

Asunya eventually looks up at Yata with sparkling eyes, a few pieces of rice on her cheeks. ]

[rollin]

[ Yata holds the cat up like she's Simba, but it's not because she's the next king of Pride Rock. ]

Kh... It's too much like her. It's sparkling! [ And being the social person he is, Yata needs to tell SOMEONE about it. ] Setsuna! Are you seeing this?

[quaria]

[ —?? This boy knows his name?

But once again, before Setsuna could ask, Yata overtakes his words. Distracted by the question, Setsuna instead thinks over it. Who is Yata referring to? He keeps talking about a girl.

Staring at Asunya as the little kitten paws at Yata's hands, Setsuna tries to study her expression. If Yata's asking him, maybe it's someone they both know? ]

Yes...?

[ And then Asunya lets out a small mewl, not unlike a scoff that Asuna herself would make.

Ah. ]

Ah... Yuuki Asuna.

[rollin]

[ He instantly lashes out, ] Don't say her name like that!

[ Like what, Yata? Don't listen to him, Setsuna. He's probably irrationally angry at something, like how smooth his voice sounds. Whatever. Back to the cat. ]

This cat looks a lot like her, doesn't it? Not that she looks like a cat, but its aura... Its aura is like hers, ain't it? Ah, I really wanna show her. [ He shakes his head. ] No, this is bad. She'll definitely want to keep it!

[quaria]

[ YATA......

The sudden yell startles Setsuna, so he ends up in a state of befuddlement. Say her name like what?? Unaware of his Deep Miyano, he's worried at how he can't figure this out. Maybe this boy just didn't want him to publicly say Asuna's name for her sake? If he thinks of it that way, it's understandable of why he's upset. He'll try not to mention Asuna's name anymore. ]

Sorry...

[ He slips that in before he listens carefully, considering every word that Yata tells him. ]

Why would it be bad? In any case, there is always the option of mailing her a picture instead.

1/2

[rollin]

[ You're forgiven, Setsuna. As long as you don't make him jealous again.

Just kidding, Yata will need to learn how to live with that. ]

Mail...

[ Setsuna's right. Asuna likes pictures... And it wouldn't inconvenience anybody. Setsuna's idea is perfect! ]

That's it! Ember, c'mere—

[rollin]

HE'S GONE!?

[ He's usually around to make fun of Yata. What happened? Yata ruffles his hair, unable to rationalize this sudden turn of events. Why is his Carrier gone when he needs him the most!? ]

He can't be serious! Setsuna, do something! [ He wants to make Asuna happy HE'S DESPERATE ]

[quaria]

[ D-Do something, he says.

On what? The Carrier? The photo? The kid's cute though, as that youthful energy is a trait that Setsuna never had and will never have. He's already past he age where he could properly enjoy his youth, yet he's also too young to be thinking as if anything's already too late. But it can't be helped anymore.

Setsuna is going to assume that Yata wants to look for his Carrier. Looking over at his own, Setsuna calls Hareep with a small hand gesture. The round robot floats over obediently, beeping enthusiastically at being addressed. He looks at Yata again afterwards. ]

Let us try calling yours. Perhaps we will hear him close by. That is, if you trust me with your ID.

[rollin]

[ If you call him cute, he will end you. But does Yata want Setsuna calling him in the middle of the night to look for Asuna? Urgh. This is a tough decision to make. But he wants that photo... ]

It's Yatagarasu. [ He blurts out impatiently. ] Hurry!

[quaria]

[ For a tough decision, that sure was fast. c': CUTE CROW!!

Speaking of fast, Setsuna sure made haste after being prompted to. He instructs Hareep to call "Yatagarasu," and presently begins to look around for any signs of energetic Carriers. Will Yata ever get that photo for precious Asuna? Will his Carrier troll him and never show up? Stay tuned. ]

[rollin]

[ Yata just watches Setsuna's Hareep thing flit around and search the area. The search is less exciting than it sounds, so Yata's a little antsy.

Also this silence is awkward. ]

What's your Carrier supposed to be?

[quaria]

[ Funny how Yata is close to a certain loli kuudere, yet can't handle a Gundam kuudere. Maybe their time will come. The question is, how soon! ]

I have been told he is modeled after a sheep...

[ It doesn't really sound like a sheep, but it does act like one. A bouncy, energetic round sheep robot... It lets out a couple of happy beeps; at least it seems happy for the stroll. As they move altogether, the cats they fed is also following behind. ]

[rollin]

[ The loli kuudere is cute. You're fighting a losing battle, Setsuna. ]

Looks more like a cotton ball to me. Why'd you choose him?

[ Cute things don't usually catch his eye, nor do they make him want to take them home. Men like blood, claws and fire! ]

[quaria]

[ Um??? :( One day, his time will come! Just you wait, Yata!! ]

Cotton ball...

[ Oh, well. Yata's not wrong. Setsuna can't unsee it now, though. And, ah... But what happened to the saying that real men wear pink! It takes guts to wear pink in public and still make the girls swoon!! ]

Hareep reminded me of particular robots from my home world. And... I am not particularly good with animals. I thought it would be easier to pick something familiar.

[rollin]

[ Only Setsuna can pull that off! Yata doesn't even want to try, which is a damn shame. Both of them would look gr8 in pink. ]

Oh. I'm not good with animals either... [ He rests his hands behind his head and flashes a toothy grin. ] I guess I shoulda picked a robot too, hehe. But crows are too cool!
