Of course!

[Like he'd go anywhere when she's coming. He's even waving when he spots her, and brings his hands to his waist while she looks at the capybara.]

I know, right? It's pretty much dog-size.

[And also chill. But maybe that attitude is why Bakugou didn't like them so much. It doesn't even move when Garnet reaches out to pet it, choosing inside to just flop on its side for more.]

[flewfromthecage]

[It is very mellow, isn't it? It may not be appealing to some, but Garnet can appreciate the less enthusiastic response, one totally unlike an excited dog attempting to bowl someone over in its happiness. The petting continues as she warms to the idea.]

What does it eat, anyway?

[tantailizing]

[Yup, the capybara is very mellow and almost seems to be falling asleep, content with the attention and... it's just a nice day out. Why not take a nap? Meanwhile, Zidane's tail waves just from watching Garnet enjoy herself.]

Plants, vegetables, fruit, tree bark... those sorts of things. I asked a guy while I was waiting.

[flewfromthecage]

Ah, an hervibore then. That is good... I don't know what I'd do if I had to feed it other creatures.

[She gets a little more adventurous with her pets, reaching for the capybara's head and sneaking quick strokes at its belly.]

Is it a boy or a girl? Do you have a name picked out yet?

[tantailizing]

Yeah. Might not be hard if it had to eat bugs, but it'd be harder if it had to be something alive.

[If it was like a falcon or hawk, but those were... particular pets. The capybara grunts a bit and nudges its head against Garnet's hand on its head, blinking a bit.]

Huh, I didn't ask about that. As for a name, Copper came to mind.

[Like the color, but did she have any suggestions?]

[flewfromthecage]

[She smiles. It fits no matter what, doesn't it? She lets it roll off her tongue once before nodding.]

Then Copper it shall be!

[Simple, yet an easy name to bear. In a way, it's an admittance that he's got a leg up on her when it comes to naming things. Or perhaps the things he names are just especially important?]

What a strange pet... but I like it. The more I learn, the more fitting it seems.

[tantailizing]

Alright! Welcome to the family, Copper!

[As weird as this family gets, but hey, normal's not much fun anyway. As for Copper? He's still relaxing and doesn't really comprehend - probably wouldn't care if they did anyway.]

We should look up more information online or at the library to make sure we take care of them right.
