[It's weird isn't it Tetsuo? The whole...horn thing. Sorry something about personal space what's that. He totally forgot they were enemies for a moment.

Because...it was so easy to fall back into that routine.]

Huh?

[Oh. OH.]

[Are you serious.

The fact Kaneda's genuinely confused is the most surreal part of all of this. And that's after getting a box full of unicorns and finding one that forgot unicorns were horses. And all of this happens in America.

Are you fucking serious right now.]

Don't you - ...The hell?

What do you mean, huh??!

[Did you SERIOUSLY forget what was going on here?

WHAT IS GOING ON DID WE SKIP A CHAPTER WHAT]

[He blinks a moment, looking at Tetsuo as the situation slowly sinks back in. Honestly, the whole whale thing made him forget that Tetsuo was actually mad.

It's now that it hits him, but...there's a smile, rubbing his hand behind his neck again. He threw Tetsuo off his angry streak, right? Not exactly intended, but he'll take it.

Heads.]

So...you gonna keep it?

[I mean, it's so WEIRD...]

Keep it?! You said you were gonna get rid of 'em!

[Angry confusion is a lot easier to work around than anger, it's true. Kaneda hasn't even been thrown off the bed yet; Tetsuo's still busy trying to piece together how he ended up there.]

[He picks up the plushie and turns it over, studying it.]

Yeah but...until we figure it out.

Figure what out?! It's a - ...

[Shit, uh... it's a what.]

It's a stuffed animal!!

[See, you don't know either.]

Of what, though.

It doesn't have to be of anything!

But we won't know that until we find out~

[And he slowly inches it towards Tetsuo. C'mon....just take it.]

Why do you wanna know so bad??

[Stop being smug. In fact, stop being Kaneda.]

You don't?

Guess that'll be one more thing I'll know that you won't....

[When he figures it out.]

[It doesn't matter, he tells himself. It's just a toy, he reminds himself.]

Like hell it will!

[The mystery object yanks itself out of Kaneda's reach before Tetsuo realizes he's reacted.]

[And just like that, the plushie is out of his hands. In fact, he makes a few grabbing motions to the air as if to make sure. Nope, definitely not in his hands.]

Huh?

[Tetsuo lets go the second after. The whalicorn sails through the air and hits the opposite wall, harmlessly bouncing to the floor.]

You heard me! Go ahead- waste your time on nothing.

But if it IS anything, you're gonna tell me!

[Someone should teach these two how to effectively use search engines sometime]

[Kaneda knows of the Google--it's a GPS as far as he's concerned.]

Yeah? I thought you didn't care.

I don't care! All I wanna find out is why the hell you do!

[don't challenge him on this, buddy]

That's a mystery.

But I'll keep in touch!

[Yeah. Fuck you and your mysteries.]

Get your ass out of here. And take those things with you!

[Oh right. He has some unicorns to get rid of, doesn't he?]

What, those?

[He smiles, swinging his legs off the bed and getting up. The box is less than satisfactory for carrying unicorns in, but he'll definitely...try... There's a little bit left that's pick-up-able, and he loads as many of the stuffed creatures in that he can. Hoisting it up onto one of his shoulders, he gives Tetsuo that trademark smirk...

And a salute.]

[The few stuffed unicorns he missed take no time in helpfully hurling themselves at Kaneda, largely ending up in the hallway. He's not taking responsibility for their existence a second longer.

The second Kaneda's out, the door's going to slam shut. Then open to let Tetsuo toss the unicorn that bounced off Kaneda and back into his room out into the hallway. And slam shut one last time.]
