[D is in the park. Of course he is. He's being weird and just standing by a lake with his hands clasped in front of himself, like he's basking in the sun. Just vibing...]
[He decides to have a seat too so she doesn't feel awkward having to look up at him. He sits elegantly, tucking his embellished robe around and under his legs.]
The pet shop was in a city much like the one here. It's a place called Los Angeles. You?
[He appreciates being considered nobility for how fashionably he dresses.]
Yes. It's a job I take much pride in. I think many people have a misconception about us, that we don't take care of the pets we end up selling, but that isn't true. We help pets find good homes.

Hello, Miss Amelia.
[He turns to glance her way.]
no subject
[They've like, barely met, so she has to think a moment about how to address him.]
Count D, is that what I should call you?
no subject
If you would like, Count D is fine. Enjoying the fresh air?
[Their dead.]
no subject
[She looks out at the lake.]
It's less confining, out here.
no subject
Yes, it's a lovely place. I prefer it over the city. You can sit if you'd like.
no subject
[She'll take a seat near to him.]
What kind of place do you come from, if I may ask?
no subject

no subject
[He doesn't look like it???]
-- Oh, I'm from a place called Saillune. I used to think the capital was a big city, but now I realize how much bigger a city can be...
no subject
[Assigned too fancy for pet shop management.]
They can grow quite large, can't they? At least you weren't caught completely unaware.
no subject
[She thinks a moment...]
Say, are you... really a count?
[Or is that just a name???]
no subject
No. It's the name of my grandfather's pet shop; Count D's Pet Shop. It's a title he was given which I have inherited like the shop itself.
no subject
[It does seem like it'd be an odd profession for nobility... but also, he kinda dresses like he could be nobility?]
Do you like it, running the shop?
no subject
Yes. It's a job I take much pride in. I think many people have a misconception about us, that we don't take care of the pets we end up selling, but that isn't true. We help pets find good homes.
no subject
Oh! Is T-chan one of the pets you carry?
no subject
He isn't for sale, but he does stay in the shop with me.
no subject
no subject
He would hate that terribly, but... in a way, I guess.
no subject
no subject
[Thoughtful. He does not know the word tsundere.]
He can be a bit grumpy.
no subject
What kind of animal is he, anyway? I don't think I've seen anything like him before...
no subject
[Maybe the goat part explains the tsundereness.]
