[Some day when he realizes exactly what that means, Furuya will probably try to learn fish. "Try."

It's even weirder with Takasu looking at him like it's not weird, so he reaches out and yanks the pants down, or attempts to. They've gotten wet, so it's not as easy as he'd imagined, but eventually he does manage to pants his dad.]

Thank you. Those are a lot softer than I thought they'd be.

[His tentacles. Furuya imagined they'd be slimier than that but they seem sort of velvety.]

[octopot]

[ And Takasu will find that absolutely adorable. He as the best son.

Takasu would have helped him and ger out of them if it wouldn't be pointless. But he grins again at Furuya. ]

No problem! And 'course they're soft!

[ Even if they are a bit slimy. Not the same slimy as Wakasa or Agari, but a little slimy. ]

[staminaroll]

[He would've appreciated the help but yeah, pantsing means he's got to do the weird part. It goes all right though.]

I thought they might be tougher or harder.

[octopot]

Really? So you've never touched octopus arms before?

[ Don't they have octopuses at those big aquariums? ]

[staminaroll]

[He just shakes his head a little. He was always more of a big animal type; his experience with octopus is mostly of the cooked variety.]

And none of them were this big.

[octopot]

[ Now that the pantsing is done, he'll just sit back down in his little plastic pool. ]

Maybe you met more squids than octopuses. Have you met our resident jellyfish by the way?

[staminaroll]

Squids are longer though. I've seen octopi before, just never touched them.

[His eyes get a little bigger.]

Is he like you?

[octopot]

Are the ones at aquariums not friendly?

[ But living in captivity might make any sea creature testy. He's never tried. ]

He doesn't have any legs and he's see-through and all jelly-like and his palms stings.

[staminaroll]

They might be. I know they're really smart, too.

[And therefore octodad is also very smart.]

... I caught him once. When we had the ocean this summer. I was fishing.

[sorry he fished for your friend, Takasu D:]

[octopot]

'course!

[ Some of his brain capacity might have been fried from being pinched by Mikuni, though.. ]

Oh, I see! Then you've met him!

[ as long as he didn't try to eat him it's ok. ]

[staminaroll]

[Too late, Takasu has officially been upgraded to "can open jars from the inside," levels of clever with Furuya.]

Yeah. He didn't even seem mad about it. I put him back after.

[octopot]

[ ....he can probably actually do that if he were to try but... Takasu is still a huge moron.. ]

He doesn't really get mad very much, only about some things. But that's good'a you. He dries up worse than the rest of us since he's mostly water.

[staminaroll]

[That's fine because really, Furuya's not exactly a genius.]

He did seem really see through. Does he have to stay in the water all the time?

[octopot]

[ Then there's no problem. ]

Sort of. The more often he's in water the better.

[staminaroll]

So he needs to be in the water more than you? How does he live here when there's no ocean?

[octopot]

Yeah he does. And they've got even more of these small plastic pools at his house.

[ And just like here, there's always water in the tub and then the window above the tub was open. ]
