Who: Quote, Abel. Fei Long too, if he decides to pop up.
Where: Espoir, Cottage #22
Style: Either
Status: Closed

Even though he was good at hiding it, the fact that Quote couldn't do much to help Abel's arm had left the little robot in low spirits. As low as they could get for him, anyway. In fact, they didn't manage to get low enough to prevent him

Quote blinked as he heard Abel's tone of voice. It was almost as if the man knew what was coming, but Quote was positive there was no way for him to know about the dog. Not that he cared much about the element of surprise, but wasn't someone who was bored supposedly to sound bored?

The little robot was about to shake his head to clear his thoughts before a whine reminded him of his charge. So, with a loud "Yus!" Quote made his way through the cottage towards Abel's room.

Quote smiled back at Abel, glad that his company was welcomed. If he didn't admit this it was probably because his lack of oratory skills. The robot was sure he had made clear he appreciated the Frenchman, though, if their item exchange was any clue.

He almost tilted his head at the question, catching himself before the pup could slide off. "It isn't," he replied, putting away his gun to grab the dog and get it off his head. Quote stepped closer to Abel and held it out without a word.

Quote observed the scene with a smile, happy that, even if he could do nothing about Abel's predicament, he was able to help in some way. The fact that the puppy enjoyed it as much just made everything better.

But then he frowned. "No," he said, confused at Abel's disappointment. "It's yours." Quote pointed childishly at the large man.

I take obnoxiously long and I am terribly sorry

[shiftwo]

"Welcome," Quote said, smiling widely. It was odd not having to ask Abel a reason behind his 'thank you' this time. Finally something came out of all his rambles through the city, it seemed.

Now with both Abel and the pup together, Quote saw it was time to leave. It wasn't that he saw himself as a bother, he was just made for this whole 'delivery boy' thing. The boy turned on his heel, but then turned right back as he remembered something. "What're you gonna call it?"

You're too nice

[shiftwo]

"Hmmm," Quote simply uttered, looking at the puppy in amusement.

"Yus," he answered, nodding rather exaggeratedly. His memory kicked back in again, though, and he asked: "Do you want me to stay?" Abel's lessons on moral support were not to go to waste.

;3;

[shiftwo]

"Okay," Quote said, nodding once again.

He then crouched down onto his knees. He placed his hands on the bed, resting his chin on the mattress as well, and blinked at the hyperactive puppy.

<3

"In Somni," Quote answered, tilting his head to look at the pup as Abel moved her. "Didn't have a collar, so I brought her."

"The Sand Zone was full of monsters, and I found Jenkas's puppies," he pointed out. Finding a dog was nothing strange for Quote, it seemed.

:D

[shiftwo]

Quote nodded, the whole movement made awkward by his head's position against the bed. "Yus. Jenka lived in it with her puppies. Curly, too, with some mimigas."
