"Hopefully the trick doesn't spread too far. A girl's only got so much time in the day."

"And Jialin and Dani will have their own celebrations for us."

"Oh, I do hope so," she purrs.

"We'll need to make all their worry up to them once they're back... And leaving them out of this." Jialin at least had gone to get supplies, and Shinta had gone to the alchemy labs, and Dani had been dragged off by a New York senior.

"I'm sure they'll have future opportunities."

"Dani will ensure that, once she knows it's possible."

"She is reliable in that way."

"A consistent soul."

"That's a kind way of putting it."

"Fits everything else about her, too. She's loyal."

"Yeah. Like a puppy."

"Though I might get jealous if you put a collar on her. Like cats and dogs."

"What if I let you put a collar on her?"

Oh now that's a thought... One she likes. 

Kiss!

Kisses!!! Excited wiggly kisses!!!

"You'll have to come up with some good ideas for her."

Giggle. "A puppy collar!"

"Yep."

"The main focus of decoration should probably be the name tag..."

"Heart-shaped?"

"An anatomically correct heart."

"A bold choice."

"A bold design for a bold wearer."

"Thinking of something three-dimensional?"
