20th Link ▫ [Video]

[It's a little snowy outside today, Wonderland. But that's okay because right now? This particular camera is seemingly submerged underwater since the world is blurred and, well, watery, and occasionally a blue and white fish would swim by or glimpes of its tail would appear on screen. If one looks carefully, the fish is actually in something like this aquarium.

There are other smaller fish bowls lined up along the desk with several fish that look like this and this, and a few of these. One other like this which looked a little out of place swam by too.

There is a theme of sorts with these fish. They seem to all be or have shades of blue. Sometimes another swirl of blue appeared in the camera's range, but that was just this teenager's blue hair and bangs as Minato looked and inspected all of the fish before the camera feed turned off.]

The fish...

[Minato raised his head up so he was out from "underwater" and pulled the comm device closer to him.]

Which one do you like?

Edited 2012-01-23 00:58 (UTC)

[....]

You pick.

[Minato smiled a little. He moved the bowl with the first blue and white fish closer to the camera to show Rei.]

This one needs to stay separate.

[She nods.]

Okay.

It's a Siamese fighting fish.

[Why no, the mun isn't biased at all. But Minato could guess Rei might know why it had to be separated from the others if just by the name.]

I'll help you take care of them.

Thank you, Minato-kun.

Did you want to see them?

[Like up close and in person.]

Yes.

Can I now?

[Minato nodded.]

I can come get you. They're in my room.

I can come there. I know the way.

[Minato nodded again, and waited for her to arrive. He left the door open since he wasn't expecting anyone else.]

[Not long after, Rei slips through the door and into the room. She goes straight for the fish bowls.]

[Minato gently closed the door once she was inside. He let her admire the different fish, standing a bit behind her to give her some space.]

They can stay in your room.

All of them? [There might actually be some excitement in her voice. Just a little.]

[Akihiko forgets to greet Minato when he turns on the recorder, peaceful and a bit mesmerized by the fish.]

[No problem! They're pretty. Really, it's fascinating that these things come from the magic of the closets.]

... Senpai.

[He startles just a mite and is attentive once more.]

Oh, hey. Got some new pets to take care of?

[Minato nodded.]

For a friend. She thought it might be a good hobby.

[And it's easier in a way than another pet like a dog or cat. Although it is making Minato miss Koromaru. ;o;]

[Aki misses him too.]

Hopefully she'll like them. Fish are a little too stationary for me.

[Minato hoped that she did too.]

I never thought about raising pets before. [But taking care of Koromaru really was a lot of fun.]

You'd pick someone like Koro-chan, right?

Definitely. Shinji and I always wanted a dog when we were kids, but the orphanage would never let us, no matter how many times we gave'em the sad eyes. A dog would be a great training partner too.

What would you pick?

[Ah, that is a very good question, Senpai. Minato did take a moment to think about it.]

Anything would be okay if it's a good companion.

I guess that's true.

[Yeah, Minato isn't very picky. XD]

You can help take care of Koromaru when you go back home.
