[ since returning to the shrine, koromaru's days have been a lot more quieter. back when he was staying at the dorms, there was always something going on and things were lively: the girls and ken would always play with him and aigis was always around to talk to him. there was shinji, before the bad thing happened and he had to stay in the white room, and there was akihiko. he missed the dorms a lot, and the kids would come and visit him occasionally, he always felt that there was someone missing.

upon hearing his name, he perks up from his spot by the shrine entrance. the voice is familiar and so is her scent, but he can't remember her name. even so, two familiar things out of three is still enough -- he knows this girl is important to the others. important to him.

koromaru meets her halfway, tail wagging as he bumps his muzzle against her leg with a bark. ]

Woof!

i'm sorry for the tldr :(

[awaken]

[ It's almost bittersweet, seeing him ― knowing that he doesn't remember her. But she can feel their bond, and it's a strong one, still holding on. Minako giggles when she feels his nose on her leg. ]

Hey, that tickles...! [ She crouches down to his height scratches him behind the ears. ] How are you? I brought some food from cooking club today―you remember Fuuka, right?―she finally tried her hand at making ground beef and it wasn't that bad. [ As she talks, Minako brings out a small container with leftover beef in it. ] She made a lot of it, so we still had a bunch of beef and I told her that it would probably be a good idea to give some to friends.

[ She pauses at handing out the food, fingers stopping in mid-air. Friends... She had initially thought of Akihiko, but considering how not even Fuuka remembers Koromaru... it was probably for the best, not to gift him some food, even if he did have a love affair with meat. At the thought, Minako smiles and continues to rid the container of beef until it was all on the ground for Koromaru to eat. ]

...Koro-chan is a friend of mine.

shhh never be sorry

[ ah, scratches. he loves those. koromaru growls playfully, leaning into her fingers as he sits on his haunches. it distracts him a little from what she says, but he hears fuuka and smells the faint scent of beef from the container, immediately lifting his head to try to nose at it.

he pauses too when she hesitates, staring up at her. there's still many things that he doesn't understand about humans and emotions, despite the fact that he can generally understand human speech. koromaru knows that he probably wouldn't have been her first choice to visit unless there was no one else and he can sense some kind of sadness from her. he makes a low sound and rubs the side of his face against her knee a little. he may not remember her name, but he doesn't want her to feel alone, not when she's being so kind.

but first, the beef. he takes a second to sniff at the meat before taking a small bite. once approved, he digs in properly, taking larger bites. ]

[ She laughs again at him rubbing his face at her knee, and then at him eating. Ken once said he envied Koromaru's life for its simplicity and well, who wouldn't be? Aside from running around Tartarus and taking him to walks, the dog definitely had an easier life compared to them―a group of teenagers (and one elementary school student) ensuring the existence and peace of not just Iwatodai and Tatsumi Port Island... but also the world.

Koromaru was also a part of that. That dull ache of being forgotten still rests in her. ]

Good boy. [ She runs her fingers through the fur on his head, her voice a whisper. ]

sorry this is late aahhhh

[ koromaru did have it easier than the other kids, had less things to worry about other than protecting the shrine and the memory of his master and, if he thinks about it, the rest of SEES too. they were his world: SEES, the shrine, and his master. small, compared to the rest of the world, but just as important. without any of them, he probably wouldn't be here today, hanging out with her and eating fuuka's ground beef.

he takes a second to lift his head a little, pressing his nose against her hand and licking her fingers. the memories are hazy (maybe he's starting to get old), but he still recalls their nightly walks and playing fetch on lazy weekends. he misses those days, when he was surrounded by them and their voice drove away the loneliness. ]

this thread is making me sad :(

[awaken]

Koromaru...

[ Minako smiles at the gesture―it's sad and content and melancholic all at once and for a brief moment she hates feeling like this.

It won't be long, however, until she can fulfill her promise―her contract now fulfilled, giving her enough time to spend it with the people she has come to see as something as a family.

A tear falls onto the ground, silent, and Minako notices that her eyes are wet. ]
