Revan is in Generic Jedi Master Robes (dyed black, of course), his hair tucked behind his ears and his neck covered in bite marks. He's cradling a black and white checkered Gizka in one arm, scratching behind its ear nubs with his free hand

A beaten-up Vincent Valentine walks into the Nexus, next to Revan. Vincent's wearing more than his usual outfit. Bandages cover most of his face and his jaw's wired shut, behind his high collar. He looks at the Gizkas.

((Can you make a black one with silver spots make cute noises at him? He's lonely, but I don't think he'd buy one unless it seemed to like him a lot.))

[notariverstone]

((Sorry. Um, I mean take one home.))

[prodigalsith]

Revan looks over at him, apparently unfazed. He wonders how the other guy looks.

In the meantime, one of the smaller Gizkas, a runty little black thing speckled with silver, notices Vincent. It hops up and down and makes a burbling noise, followed by a squeak.

[notariverstone]

Vincent looks at the little Gizka. He seems to be thinking.

[notariverstone]

((That's so cuuute!))

[prodigalsith]

((^_^))

The Gizka waggles its stumpy tail and squeaks again. Bounce bounce.

Revan raises an eyebrow and chuckles. "I believe it likes you."

[notariverstone]

Vincent exhales quickly, then pauses. "Nnlow veint-tennce?"

[notariverstone]

((In case you can't read that, it's "Low maintenance?", or it's supposed to be. If his jaw weren't all shattered.))

[prodigalsith]

((Thanks! I thought that might be it.))

Revan catches what Vincent means quicker than his mun did; probably that Force-user business. He nods. "Very much. They can subsist on very little food and water, do not need to be groomed, and are quite cleanly."

[notariverstone]

"Wha-aTe do fey ea-Tu?"

(("What do they eat?))

[prodigalsith]

"Plants, generally, and occasionally insects."

[notariverstone]

"Nnn." He looks at the hopping Gizka again.

It did seem to like him. More than could be said for most of AVALANCHE, at the moment. But a pet? He'd never been good with pets. It was low-maintenance. He wanted companionship. Maybe he could get Tifa to let him spend some time with Shelke, then show it to her. Perhaps it could be her pet.

"Hhh." He reaches into the box and picks up the runty Gizka.

((OMG, mind drowning in cute!))

[prodigalsith]

((Well, I'm about to make it worse XD))

The Gizka sticks its toe-pads onto the nearest piece of cloth it can find, then smushes the top of its head against Vincent's chest and purrs. D'aww, happy Gizka!

[notariverstone]

Vincent looks down at it. Though he shows no emotion, Revan might notice a ripple of shock come from him, through the Force.

Was it... snuggling him?

He looked down at it. Was this really what he needed, right now? A pet? But it seemed to like him. He begrudgingly admitted that it was cute. After a pause, he was decided. Why not?

"Vay I T'a-ake this?"

(("May I take this?"))

[prodigalsith]

Revan does notice, but it doesn't particularly bother him; one of his friends had the same reaction when a different Gizka snuggled the guy's leg.

He smiles. "Of course. It is all yours."

[notariverstone]

"Hhh." Vincent begins to walk away, Gizka still clinging to him. Revan might get a ripple of begrudging affection, through the Force. Then Vincent continues onwards, parting ways with Revan.

((Yay! Vincent has a Gizka! Thank you!!!))
