Welcome to Gaia! ::

When it rains, it pours.

Three days after getting Ko smuggled into his building, Kazuo got kicked out on the spot for it. Apparently this was a no pets allowed building. How was he supposed to know!? He didn't ask when he moved in. He hadn't exactly had a pet then, and had no plans for one. Huffing slowly when he grabbed the last of his huge bags, he stood in front of Kraven's place and whined.

It was starting to rain, Ko was peeking out of his hoodie and slowly he reached out to knock on the man's door.

"I don't even know if he's home," he whispered to Ko, nosing into his little head. "Hope he is. I'm wet and I hate it.."

"...Shut up." he sighed hard and then rubbed a sleeve over his face. It was damp, his face was damp. "I got kicked out because of Ko.." He motioned to the kitten and just let his brows knit harder. Sniffling a bit, he shuffled forward and pushed himself into the man's stomach and chest and whined openly.

"....Can I live with you? Until I can get... Uh. Until I can actually find a new place?"

"Excuse, you," he murmured, petting Ko carefully. "He goes in a litter box. I'll clean that. You just don't kick him, or I'll kick you." Kazuo would, too. He sighed slowly and just kissed the taller man back before pushing past him with an armload of bags. It was only just four huge bags. He never really unpacked from his first place.

"I won't get in the way, okay? I'll help out with bills and what not. I just.." He groaned and looked to Ko. "He's too cute."

"I just said he used the litter box!" He huffed and frowned at the man before he realized Kraven grabbed Ko like that. He whined and puffed and went to find the kitten again and just picked him up, clutching the poor kitten to his chest. "Treat it gently! It's just a baby. God," he murmured, nosing into Ko's back.

"...This is everything. I do not actually have a lot. Most of the things in my house in Japan were my parents. I had what was in my room and it was electronics and clothing." The man shrugged a bit. "I never got anything for my apartment because everything here is very expensive." Well, it seemed expensive to him, a guy working at a gas station to make ends meat. He gently put Ko down and murmured to him in Japanese, telling him to be a good boy and that this was home. A giggle came from him as Ko licked his forehead and then he sat on the bed with a sigh.

"...It is your place," he flapped a damp sleeve at the man before he slowly pulled of his hoodie and button down shirt. From there he was half naked and then got off the bed to look around. The wrinkle in his nose was telling of how he felt about the cigarette smoke, but he wouldn't verbalize it any time soon.

"He came to me potty trained!" He squinted at the other and moved to one of his bags to look around in it. He found a huge tee-shirt that had some random band name on it and then just pulled that on while looking around for another hoodie. "I found him.. three or four days ago?"

Speaking of potty training. He dug around and found his litter pan in a large plastic bag along with the litter. He set it up somewhere out of the way, poured litter in it and then turned around to stick his tongue out at Kraven, as if openly defying him somehow. When that was said and done, he pushed a hand through his hair, which was getting shaggy and long, and just took a deep breath.

"It's your place, so whatever is good with me."

He kind of waved off those questions and looked to the kitten again before looking around the room. Kazuo felt... awkward all of a sudden like this. He pushed a hand through his hair and then toyed with the sleeve of his hoodie as he thought a moment. Honestly, Kazuo needed to take him to a vet, but money was super tight. It may be a little more lax now, but he couldn't afford a vet.

"It doesn't matter if I'm okay with it or not, it happened."

He'd never lived with anyone but his family or alone. So... to live with a boyfriend? Ugh. He wasn't sure what he was going to do. "If you don't want him around, I'll find another place that'll allow cats."

In the huff Kraven ran off in, Kazuo was left in a very confused state. His brows knit and he turned to follow him after a hesitant moment.

"Kraven..." He let his brows knit even more and he ...didn't enter the room. Swallowing thickly, the Japanese man just stayed right there. "Look, I'm not okay with it, but I wouldn't have given him up, anyway... Ko needs me. I don't know why you're mad." There was a loud exhale as Kazuo sighed and then came into the room, reaching out to put his hand on the taller man's armr.

"Why are you mad?"

"Look..." He sighed hard and rubbed his face before shaking his head. "Look. It doesn't matter because it happened and there's nothing anyone can do to change that. It just... happened, okay? So. No, I'm not happy about it. That was home, but I can't do anything, so it doesn't matter if I'm mad about it or not. I'll get over it. That's all I meant."

Kazuo shook his head and rubbed his neck. Maybe this wouldn't work yet, them living together. "So.. I'm sorry, I guess..."
