what do you do when something you were told, turns out not to be true anymore? not true here? when you have more time than you thought. i didn't have to really think about the future. but here, i don't have to worry. i can plan. i mean, besides helping on missions.

[Being told he probably wouldn't live much longer than a year or so. And then Aurora reassured him that that wasn't the case. Vivi now has a lot to consider....]

A slight pause, and then: ]

wait
are you talking about those giant chickens

you play with them???

[ornitiers]

i've ridden them before. and i played with the baby one i met. they're cute...!

[maximumlegend]

i don't know if cute is the word id use......

what part of them do you think is cute
also i'm pretty sure i have seen those things actually attack people before
just saying it in case you haven't

[ornitiers]

the babies are cute! so little and fluffy!

they can do that. they are still animals. they can and will defend themselves or get scared sometimes.

[maximumlegend]

are you saying you come from a place where animals attack people all the time???

where i come from we'd call that sort of thing monsters

[ornitiers]

not all the time. just. you know. some are wild. territorial. not all animals are pets, used to people.

[ ...

Hold on, mister 'rich, privileged and sheltered' is trying to process this over here. ]

and you think they are cute?
those wild animals???

[ Fabian has no right to judge, given that he has a hellhound for a pet, but.. you know. This isn't the most self aware guy around. ]

[ornitiers]

yes. baby chocobo chicks, or puppies or kittens. of course, they're cute! so small and fluffy!

[It probably also does not help that others can vary with finding Vivi himself creepy or adorable, either.]

[maximumlegend]

sure
puppies are pretty good
but they are different than these bird things yeah??

i mean has a puppy ever attacked you??

[ornitiers]

they are.

not people's pets. no. if they would bite, it's just them playing.

[maximumlegend]

if something is biting me then they are NOT doing it for fun [ He feels very confident about this.

.. for a moment, anyway. As Fabian is forced to consider this a little bit more, he does seem to realize something he should add to that.. ]

except for one of my friends
i suppose
he bites when he gets stressed

[ornitiers]

puppies can get scared or stressed too.

[maximumlegend]

[ ...

Give him a moment, he's processing this now. ]

are you saying my friend is like a puppy
or like one of these giant chickens

[ornitiers]

A little? I don't know!
