Ripperinno No Copy Pasterino [Bread|MPC33 - TTaCtE|WCPE]

Squire-Veemon was a fairly serious digimon... for a child level, that is. He considered himself to be above childish activities such as this 'Halloween' Holiday. He had never actually seen the actual holiday, since he had only moved to live in the city little less than a year ago. He had heard a bit about it, and the entire concept just sounded dumb. He didn't care enough about candy to dress up in some stupid costume and beg for it at every Adult digimon's doorstep.

So what was he doing in the eve of Halloween? 

Did you say training? You did, didn't you? Well you are wrong. He was napping. This was a rare day in which his master wasn't grinding his stamina into the ground through mind-crushingly boring errands. So Squire was just gonna sit his butt down and sleep for the entire day, Yggdrasil knew he needed the rest.

He had been napping for a good hour now, unaware to everything that was going outside of his home. The windows  of his room were all open, a chilly, refreshing breeze blowing inside and keeping the temperature refreshingly comfy. He was tucked in into his bed as far as he could go, hugging a pillow that was larger than he was. It had been lent to him (Which meant it was now his, forever) from Dukemon.

All in all, he was currently under the effects of the perfect nap. So deep into his nap he was, the thundering sound of the knocker went completely unnoticed. Instead of waking up, the small dragon simply shifted slightly and rolled onto his other side before resuming his unmoving rest, his small chest rising with each breath. A few mumbles came out of his mouth, something about annoying puppies with dumb antics, but it was mostly just gibberish.

It would require far more than that to wake him up. Probably actually shaking him away.

You would think that with how loud the doggy was being, Squire would startle awake, huh? You would be wrong. The small dragon muttered a few rude sentences under his breath as Kyo's shouting echoed inside the room, turning away from her and hugging his pillow closer. He stubbornly refused to leave the heaven that was his nap, specially for annoyingly loud voices that sounded like puppies. 

Unfortunately, her screaming reached decibels his ears simply couldn't ignore. Squire's eyelids scrunched tightly as his ears rang, low expletives flying out of his mouth as he slowly rolled again to face the puppy. He had a glazed over glare plastered over his face, looking both annoyed, confused and out of it. He was obviously not quite done waking.

Staring at the black puppy for a moment, Squire slowly blinked at her, his eyelids out of sync, one opening and closing before the other. Finally, his pupils seemed to dilate and constrict in quick succession before he finally snapped into focus.

Then a look of irritation slapped into his features.

"Who let you inside the house?" Was the first question to exit his mouth, his lip curled as he stared the puppy costumed as a human down. "And what the hell is with that get up?" Squire's opinion on humans was only marginally better than that of the average Golden City Citizen, and his respect for few members such as Yuu basically translated to 'You are a credit to your species'. 

Basically, he didn't care much for humans.

"If Master catches you looking like that, he will put a spear through your guts, you know." He said, rubbing at his eyes with the back of his hand. "Wait, what are you even doing here?" Kyo was not a resident of the Golden City, and as Nomadic, Moving state, it was a fairly hard to find place. Looking over the Puppy curiously, he could only wonder what sort of important mission Kyo was currently undergoing.

"My fault? You broke my darned door." He protested irritably, his brows knitted together into a frown. If his Master saw the unhinged door he would be the one forced to fix it. "You better pay for the carpenter; I am not fixing that." he finished with a huff, crossing his arms and turning his gaze away from her, his cheeks puffed. Everything had been going so well. Of course Kyo had to come and whip up a shit storm as she always did.

"Your clothes? I don't care about your clothes. You look like a human, fool. H-U-M-A-N. You know, that thing that is not allowed within city limits?" He said, looking frankly unimpressed. "Plus, that attire is so last season." He added, smirking at her slightly. He could play a little too.

He had to snort at her boast, clearly not believing her one bit. "Oh, he will find a restaurant alright. A Chinese one. Those are the humans that eat dogs, right?"

He didn't care how strong Kyo thought she was. His master was widely regarded as the strongest Knight in the Golden City's history. He was like, the strongest thing in the universe. At least. No way the doggy could fight him, even if she could go Mega as she liked to boast.

Turning on his bed, Squire threw his legs over the side of the bed, his feet swing occasionally as he spoke with the puppy. "Visit me? That's it? You went through the trouble of finding the Moving State just for a visit?" That was actually a little nice of her...

Oh, Halloween.

"And there it is." He said, rolling his eyes, leaning forward. His elbows rested onto his thighs, one of his hands supporting his head under the chin as he spoke. He looked decidedly uninterested, and who could blame him? Halloween was stupid. He didn't want to dress up in some ridiculous get up and beg for candy. He wasn't a damn kid.(Even though he was.) "No. Halloween is dumb. Can't we just sleep together instead?"

He failed to catch the connotations of his own words, naturally

Squire couldn't help but groan in response to Kyo's boundless enthusiasm, already feeling fatigued under her sunny disposition. He didn't wanna go trick or treating or whatever the heck kids did during Halloween. Nap, he wanted to nap! But of course, Kyo didn't know the joys of sleeping. Hyper as she was, she probably hadn't over slept a day in her life. 

He was actually beginning to feel sorry for her.,

"Humans are meh. You look better as pup anyways." He said offhandedly, waving his hand dismissively as he jumped down from his high bed. Landing besides her easily enough, he stretched his arms over his head tiredly, yawning as he moved towards the closet. Looking over his shoulder, he threw the puppy a smirk before throwing the closet open, revealing it fool of Suspiciously Middle eastern clothing.

Cause he basically lived in the digital world's interpretation of an ancient Middle east state crossed with Persia.

"Excuse you. You are the one dressed in those tasteless human rags. Honestly, how can you walk in public while wearing those? I actually feel second hand embarrassment." The basis of their friendship was set around their ability to jab, taunt, tease and generally insult one another without any actual sting to their words. "Yeah yeah, I'm aware; you'll be whining all day until I give up anyways.But we better be in bed before Midnight; Can't wait to get you into bed." With any luck, she wouldn't be anywhere near as hyper while asleep. He wasn't crossing his fingers for that one, though.

Scratching at the back of his head, Squire stared at his closet, before ultimately throwing it close. "Well, I don't have anything that could be a costume. What have you got, pup?"

"Wow there, I never said anything about beautiful." He snarked as he started to fiddle with his pajamas, unbuttoning the first few buttons while looking over his shoulder playfully. "I said you looked better. Given that you look like a human right now, that's not exactly an incredible feat, ya know?" Have I mentioned that Squire doesn't like humans?

"You are pretty cute though, that said." He admitted casually, fully unbuttoning his  pajama shirt and throwing it over his shoulder. "You got a set of rags marginally better than the average set of rags. Congrats." He insulted immediately after. "What kind of snack bar is that, anyways? Like Tropical flavored or something?"

Turning to face Kyo, his brow tilted slightly at offered selection, looking fairly unimpressed at her as he crossed his arms over his chest. "Why the heck would I want to dress like a human? Don't you have anything more traditional? Like an actual pirate costume or something. Even if Pirates are totally lame.  You did this on purpose, didn't you?" He accused, pouting at her as he reached for the Holo suits. Even after having protested against them, he knew he didn't really have a choice at this point.

"A ninja would have been way better, you know." He grumbled, staring at the holo suit device for a second... before looking back up at her. "Uh... I've never actually used one of these before." He admitted sheepishly,  twirling the device deftly on his fingers before bringing it closer to his face, starting to fiddle with the buttons. The more he attempted to activate the device, the more endangered the small gizmo seemed.

"Don't worry, I'll get this at some point." He promised with a small frown, his left eye twitching slight, looking ready to chuck it to the ground.

"I've been told." he replied airily, still fiddling with the holosuit like some kind of technology-challenged baboon. Why was it so hard? Literally everyone used it. He wasn't technology challenged or anything, so what gives?!

"Honestly, how the heck do you make this work...?!" He hissed under his breath as he began to press and fiddle more roughly with the device. He was growing swiftly annoyed with the device's stubbornness. At this rate, he would definitely  "I swear to Yggdrasil...! I will break this piece of scrap metal!!!" He finally growled, throwing the Holosuit across the room and onto his bed. 

"Forget the holosuit! It ain't worth it if it ain't a ninja anyways!" He said, stomping his way back to his closet and throwing it wide open. Immediately after he stepped inside, before slamming it back shut. The sound of rummaging and trashing was heard for a full minute before the door was once again thrown wide open, Squire stepping out of it in a rather... risque(?) outfit.

"There. A costume. I'm gonna have candy raining on me; Let's rol- Woah!" The little dragon didn't even get to finish his sentence before the puppy had somehow seized his arm, dragging him out of the home by literally jumping right outta the window. 

"Oh jeez, you realize we have a door, don't y-" As she dragged him across the entrance of the home, he dully noticed the wooden door lying on the floor, the hinges scattered across the floor haphazardly after having been basically punched off. "Well, we had one." He finished irritably, still getting dragged across the floors of the Golden City.

"Yo, you don't intend to drag me across the entire city, right? Wait, where are we going? You don't know this city!"

Honesty Check: Pass. [+2 Honesty]

"I mean exactly what I said! Your sense of direction sucks!" He threw flatly at her, having seemingly grown accustomed to getting dragged over the asphalt. He snorted in amusement as Kyo kept the charade going. "Is that a rhetorical question?"

He was still gonna give her a straight out yes. Instead, he found himself cursing loudly as Kyo dragged him all the way to the home across from his, banging the back of his head against the doorstep. While Kyo trick or threatened his Thunderballmon neighbor, Squire rubbed at his scalp furiously and hissed under his breath, already wondering why the heck he had come. He was only more or less listening to the one sided conversation, snorting at her rather accurate representation of Human-Digimon partnership.

"Wow." He started as casually as he could, "You are surprisingly aware of your situation." He said simple, giving her a look from the corner of his eye. He didn't think 'partnered' digimon could realize just how deeply sucky their situation was. Yuu was... fine, for a human. But she was literally a credit to humanity, so she didn't count. 

As his shaken neighbor handed the goods to the puppy, Squire rolled his eyes, "Fun isn't exactly the word I would use to describe that." He said bluntly, pursing his lips at her as he placed both hands on his hips. "Hope you ain't too proud, by the way. That was a bit mean." The last thing the Knights needed was for the citizens to start screaming about humans on Halloween's eve.

"The Citizens of Eldoradimon are super paranoid about humans. Mr. Thunderballmon will probably not be sleeping tonight. And he will be all gossipy in the morning..." And the last thing HE needed was for his name to become associated with humans. 

Just for these reasons, he decided to take Kyo's offer. "Okay, but you can't say anything! And let's try and stay in the good part of the city, okay? Wouldn't wanna end up in the-"

---

"- Underbelly." He grumbled, his face set into pure irritation as he stood besides Kyo. Music seemed to blast in the distance, a building shining in a multicolored light show. Some party, likely.

Squire wanted no part in it.

"How the heck did we even get here?" He mumbled, his brow twitching slightly. "I was enjoying myself." And then this happened. "The beginning? When are we going to sleep?"
