[Oh! He smiles genuinely (i hate him) at the memory. T-chan already starts to look more embarrassed.]
He was a chef at a restaurant. He was very handsome; I could tell he was a totetsu. He courted me for a while because he wanted to eat me. He almost did, but the detective got in the way. So I asked him if he would like to stay in my pet shop instead.
[He gestures at T-chan after saYING THIS SO CASUALLY LIKE RECOUNTING A YOUNG CHILDHOOD LOVE. T-chan huffs.
Shenhe gets this lore because she is a little weirdo like him.]
[ok listen like, shenhe has heard a lot of batshit stuff because she comes from genshin, but even this is a little pushing the boundary of what is Weird and Not Weird for her.]
And... you would be fine with being eaten? [this is apparently the problem she has with this]
[Wow, he's still all smiles. God, he's so stupid. He unwraps his own apple pie and has a small bite of one corner of it. What is he happy for...]
Well, I did not want him to eat me necessarily... But I would have sacrificed a limb or two in order to have him stay in the shop... [A smile.] Thankfully, I did not have to do such a thing.
And T-chan agreed to live there with the rest of us.
[This makes him laugh a little. He gazes fondly at T-chan...]
Not particularly. T-chan is not for sale. He stays in the shop with me and a few others who cannot be purchased. The people who come in come with their own abstract desires. They want love, or fame, or wealth, or to heal their loneliness. I've even had a girl ask for the "ugliest" pet I had, the one no one else would want.
Only sometimes do they come in with something in mind. A cat, a dog, a bird.

[The stupid name..... Weirdos. He's not sure if Shenhe knows what a pet shop is, so:]
It's a place a person may go to purchase any animal they desire when they are looking for a pet.

And do people often desire a pet like him? [her tone suggests that she thinks they shouldn't,]
