[And here would Luke be, trying to get used to this technology stuff. Of course, when you have a cheagle snuggling against the side of your face while you're trying to figure out what button does what, you're usually not very successful. He let out an annoyed noise, shoving the thing out of his face. The little pink cheagle dropped onto his lap, poking its head up so it could just be seen at the bottom of the screen.]

Uh... the scientists left me this thing, but I have no idea what its name is. There isn't anyone that can speak monster by any chance, is there?

[The cheagle jumped up, big ears waving as if it could fly.]

Mieu! Mieumieu Mieuuuuu~

[Luke tolerates that for all of two seconds before he dropped his fist down on its head.]

What'd I tell you about doing that?!

Mieuuuu...

[The cheagle primed itself up at the mention of it being cute, cleaning its fur as if it needed to look better for Ryoji.]

[Luke, meanwhile, stared blankly at that suggestion.]

...I didn't think of that.

Oh! Well, do you have paper? Maybe it can tell us now!

[ Ryoji laughs a little, as the cheagle cleans itself. ]

You are definitely a pretty little princess! [pause] or are you a prince, little one?

Er...

[Luke paused, fishing around for a piece of paper. Meanwhile, the cheagle jumped up, shaking its tail back and forth... which, because the tail was so small, led to it shaking it's butt back and forth.]

Mieu! Mieu mieuuu~

Of course its gotta be a girl. It's pink!

Really? What does pink have to do with it being a girl?

[ He's genuinely curious here! But awww look at that wiggly butt! ]

[video]

[sacred_flamer]

Well... pink is a girl color! Obviously!

[Geeze, everyone knows that.

[death_awaits_you]

It is? I know a lot of girls wear it, but do you mean guys can't have pink things too?

[ He seems pretty sad about that, because he likes pink, okay! Not as much as yellow, but pink is still very pretty! ]

[video]

[sacred_flamer]

Of course not! That's just... so wrong!

[Sorry to crush your dreams of pinkness, Ryoji.]

[ Zelos and Dist would beg to differ, Luke. ... not that Dist should necessarily count here, but whatever. ]

Aww. [ Ryoji's dreams are completely crushed! His eyes are wide and sad, as he looks mournfully at Luke. ] But -- why?

[video]

[sacred_flamer]

Because it's... pink! It's a girly color!

[video]

[death_awaits_you]

I guess I see girls wear it a lot more than guys, but... I'm sorry - I don't really understand why it's girly.

[ He does seem pretty apologetic since Luke seems so frustrated... ]

Be...because it just is okay?! It's a sacred rule of the universe!
