[ he is not scared of the bubbly sheep or the round cows, but he is wondering whether upsetting them would make him feel bad. daan has finally hit the pause button. ]
Maybe I'll leave it to the professionals.

caelus leads the way to the incredibly round and friendly looking cows, sticking close beside daan but not breaking the physical touch barrier.
affection week causes a certain yearning, however, cows are taking precedence. ]
They seem okay with us so far.
[ pats one! ]
no subject
Anyway, you ever stood in front of a cow? They are terrifyingly large and Daan seems to be considering that fact now that he's face-to-face with it. ]
Thank Alll-mer they are, because if this cow chose aggression, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't survive.
[ ...A very careful pet... she just chillin', minding her own business. ]
no subject
I'll protect you if they choose violence.
[ the cow flaps her ears tenderly. no sense of immediate aggression. ]
Have you visited a ranch before?
no subject
Please don't bash them with your bat.
[ Even though it would be funny, it's like playing pinball but terribly. ]
I haven't. Where I lived before, it was a pretty large city. Would've had to go out to see a ranch, and there wasn't much reason to.
no subject
noted, though. he will use alternate means of subduing the farm animals if it becomes an issue. ]
Everything here seems a step off from what I know. The sheep look like puffergoats.
no subject
What's a puffergoat like?
[ Trying to imagine this... ]
no subject
[ he does not clarify that he knows this from their cartoon illustrations
anyway: looking at sheep thoughtfully. and milkfully. ]
no subject
[ So this doesn't read as a weird comment to make to him.
But this look from Caelus DOES. Somehow he read the word 'milkfully' in the cosmos, beamed straight into his brain, and he's frowning. ]
Are you planning something...
no subject
[ preparing his squeezing hands with small finger bend exercises ]
no subject
[ SIR? Should've just binged Dungeon Meshi and then idk brought Laios so he could encourage this wholesale. ]
Do you even know how to?
no subject
It can't be that hard.
[ we can live our dreams. it's never too late. we just ask mods in the next game to make sure there are milkable creatures. ]
no subject
would not know well enough to actually just be like no you absolutely shouldn't without coming off as some weird stranger hardass. ]
Just be careful? These animals are pretty big. Feels like if they got upset at you, you'd be a goner.
no subject
Maybe I'll leave it to the professionals.
[ they gotta have one farmer in the forty-person group. surely. one person who has touched livestock. ]
no subject
Maybe you could ask around, see who knows a thing or two about it. I think Ms. Hawke does.
no subject
[ caelus briefly shoves his face into the side of a cow.
the cow appears unaffected.
muffled, but audible, ]
And she's so nice about it.
[ the worst part ]
no subject
[ He is wondering what in the heck you guys have talked about. ]
She is pretty relaxed, all things considered.
no subject
[ he's not giving deets without nosy asking, but for free, the vibes are: oh god oh no oh god oh no ]
no subject
[ He wouldn't have asked if Caelus wasn't giving off such stressed energy. ]
...What did you say to her...
no subject
Half the questions I ask, the person they're about is dead. That's not a good ratio!
[ it will never get its phd ]
no subject
[ HELP ]
...It's not like you would've known?
[ There there... ]
no subject
Don't ask about Bethany.
no subject
Okay... I won't.
Thanks for the warning.
Anything else?
no subject
no subject
Okay, I won't...
Uh...
Anything else?
[ Will Caelus list a third one, it's very funny. ]
no subject
[ this is not actually his face he is not actually crying but it's the mood ]
