closed; doppo's arrival
🧙 WHO: Doppo and Hifumi
⚔️️ WHAT: Doppo's here.
🕒 WHEN: February, his initial arrival.
🗺️ WHERE: Just follow that out-of-place black rain cloud.
⚠️ WARNINGS: None as of right now other than Doppo's usual negativity.
[ Doppo must have fallen asleep in the bathtub or something...or so he thought. He wakes up at what appears to be the shore, just not in a place that he recognizes. Mind frazzled, suit drenched...he's inclined to think that he's still dreaming but usually he'd wake up after the initial shock. But much like a dream, it's still a creeping feeling like he's supposed to expect something he doesn't know about. Creeping, unsettling...the feeling doesn't go away even as the caravan takes him to Camelot.
Once he's mostly dried up and alone, he takes out the phone issued to him and the first thing he does is dial Hifumi's number. Maybe this is where he'd hear a very loud greeting to remind him that it's morning and that he'd have to get up if he wants to make it to work earlier-than-on-time. The call doesn't go through, of course...to which Doppo just goes to a nearby bench to take a seat. It's easier to gather his thoughts now that he's still, but he eyes the city life around him with its uniqueness and oddities, but is otherwise alike any other city to him. It just happens to be a city he's never heard of, let alone been to.
With a sigh, he leans back against the bench to stare at the sun. The sun's the sun...it's just not the sun he knows. ]
...is this dream going to end? Guess it's not so bad if nobody knows me...

This guy's my...familiar? [ He pulls away from Hifumi to kneel down, half-prepared (so, never prepared) for the moment the thing might bite his hand or something. ]
It looks like those statues that guard the temples. [ He starts to pet him. And instead of biting him, the komainu licks his hand which...why is that suddenly the most validating feeling in the world??! Doppo turns to look up at Hifumi like he just won the lottery and is actually happy about it. ]
Hifumi...! [ He likes him!!! ]
no subject
[And just when Hifumi thought he would say more things about his familiar, the adorable scene takes place before him, making him feel like melting into a puddle. Oh no. How will he ever live with this level of cuteness in his life?!]
Hehe! [Hifumi laughs at Doppo's reaction.] I'm so happy your familiar has got you all excited...! Just wait til you see more of what it can do!
[He's so happy to see Doppo so happy about it that he felt like he could cry. This is a moment he will always remember no matter what.]
no subject
What does that say about Doppo? Er...He picks up Kominuname pendingwho happily sits in his arms. ]Um, so Hifumi... [ He probably looks like he's about to continue his initial question before getting barreled over by this magical, four-legged happy nugget. The confusion in his tone is still there but it's a little more reassured than earlier. ]
You've been by yourself for a while, haven't you? I mean, you have roommates but... I'm sorry for disappearing on you, even if I don't remember anything... [ And no way it would've been his choice. Jakurai probably would feel the same way.
Doppo closes the distance between them, eyes concerned but ever earnest. ] This all still feels like a dream too. Whether it is or it isn't, I'm glad we're together now.
no subject
It's okay! It's not your fault this universe is mean to people.
[As Doppo closes the distance between them, Hifumi reaches a hand out to pat him on the head. He can't help it; giving Doppo any kind of affection is what he liked doing normally anyway, but especially now that Doppo will have to deal with being in a place like this.]
I'm glad we're together now too. [He says more softly, still emotional about having Doppo back,] Really glad...
