Where: Everywhere
What: School is in

[Somewhere, a bell begins to ring. You may know the type—obnoxious and loud, signalling the start of a brand new day of lectures and learning. Rise and shine, lovelies; wakey wakey eggs and bakey! And with that, just as the toll falls silent, you hear the sound you may have been waiting for: the click of a lock.

You're free to explore.]

You want to pet her, don't lie~

[And just to prove his point, he reaches in with one finger and begins gently petting the fish. She glubs in response.]

. . .

Tell you what. I'll let you do all of the petting on my behalf.

Nope, not working.

You're hurting her feelings.

[Henry holds the tupperware closer to Kit's face. The fish's feelings are unharmed and he knows this, but he figures she is willing to take one for the team ~~and also the possibility of more petting~~.]

Fish don't have feelings to be hurt.

[That he says in a deadpan 8|]

[and he shies away from that tupperware container when Henry holds it close. go awaaaay fish he doesn't like you DX]

That's a lie.

[He knows it's a lie, and if you ever say it again, promise be damned he will end you.]

Even if I was hurting its feelings, my allergies are more important!

[Fiiiiish DX]

I wanna see your allergies! Come oooooon!

[He is approaching with the fish.]

No you don't!

[attempts to. . . dart around him, just to avoid that fish]

Put it doooooown!

Yes I do~

[HE'S NOT PUTTING THE FISH DOWN]

[The fish herself, meanwhile, is just kinda floating in her tupperware, not entire sure what's going on.]

[...And then he gets an idea. Henry stops holding the tupperware out, and instead brings it closer to his chest. The mischief in his smile drops. He approaches Kit slowly.]

Hey, I'm sorry. I thought you liked 'em.

Liked them? What made you think that?

[Still watching him warily]

Well, I heard someone shouting in the dorm the other day about 'Kit' and 'fish'...

[He holds out the hand that's not cradling the tupperware.]

Friends?

[Not taking the hand just yet 8|]

Not until you put the fish down.

Oh, fine.

[Henry sets down the fish on a nearby surface, and then looks back at Kit, smiling and holding out his hand expectantly.]

. . .

[Tentatively takes Henry's hand. . .]

[He shakes it. Completely normally. No tricks. Holy crap, he may actually mean it this time!]

[A few seconds pass. Just long enough to (hopefully) lull him into a sense of security.]

[And then Henry yanks on his hand and pushes it into the bowl.]

Coochie-coochie-coo! Nya ha ha ha!

[JAPSIDJFPOAJSPFIJAO]

[THIS SHRIEK IS SO LOUD anyone within the near vicinity can hear it. Kaito is yanking is hand back as quickly as he can as he bolts for the door]

[WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO HIM HENRY. WHY 8(]

[Henry's cackles can also be heard in the background.]

[He waves, and then goes to bring the fish back to her pond.]
