Yeah, the two were definitely getting some weird looks. But Kellan didn’t even notice. He was used to these kind of looks-people squinting, rolling their eyes, laughing… mostly because he was always screaming and bouncing off the walls. It looked strange to some people, but it was just who he was. And he was, at the time, having fun with his best friends. Still, if he heard even a single negative comment about Katsu… Luckily, his ears weren’t picking up on anything of the sort. “I never took dance, let alone ballet, Kellan.” Katsu shook their head. “You know extracurricular things were usually frowned upon and shut down pretty quickly at my house.” They rolled their eyes-probably at how ridiculous the whole thing was-causing Kellan to roll his blue ones, too. Kellan, of course, was already aware that his poor friend hadn’t had many chances to learn arts or anything of the sort. While Kellan was allowed to try his hand at dance, cheer, and tumbling, Katsu was confined to dark chambers. Kellan was allowed to try theatre and painting, while that kinda thing would be laughed at and discouraged for the other. “I know.” He looked down sympathetically at his friend. He smirked playfully. “I’m all powerful.” He joked. In reality, though, being tiny and cute had always appealed to Kellan a bit more than being “tall”. Still, his height made him feel like a runaway model, strutting down the halls. Katsu pouted, and so did Kellan. “I swear, if he does anything to your clothes…” They both knew who ‘he’ was. They both wore large smiles as they walked down the hallways. Though Katsu mumbled that last part, Kellan was able to catch it, even though the hallways were full of different voices. “That’s soooo not true!! It’s not you, it’s them. People suck.” Kellan said, angry at whatever people weren’t interested in being Katsu’s friend. “It will be different now. So many people here are super nice!” Kellan said, though it wasn’t like he’d met everyone at the school or anything.
Kellan was happy to follow Katsu’s advice. If it didn’t go well, that wasn’t Katsu’s fault-either Kellan had executed the advice badly, or the person he was after was dumb anyways. Kellan was also good at giving advice-and was about to give plenty to Katsu. Though all of his potential relationships had…not gone well, he still felt like he gave decent advice on them. He supposed he had more experience than Katsu, though his track record was much, much worse. “Pshhh, you don’t need to know how. Just be your cute self and let them do all the work.” Kellan felt Katsu’s head on his shoulder. He really did hope the perfect person would come along. It wasn’t like Katsu had to make the first move, anyways. Really, they were so cute that Kellan was sure people would be falling for them left and right. “Don’t say that, girl! You know I’ll always come to you for advice.” Kellan said, as if horrified at the thought.
“Okay, okay. But can your dad do this?” Kellan put a certain kind of emphasis on the word ‘dad’, his tone became bitter. He lept into a pose, his fists in front of his face, then high kicking into the air. He was only trying to cheer Katsu up, though he did doubt the Horned King could do a high kick all the way to the top of his head. Though it would be fun to see.“Exactly!” Kellan said cheerfully. He hoped Katsu would be at the school for a long time-until graduation at least. He paused. That wasn’t a bad point. Kellan was not that great at telling either, so he didn’t know what to say. “Fair… I guess you should be careful… but not too careful, like, don’t underestimate yourself!! Like, people might just be being nice, but there will definitely be those who flirt with you.” Kellan babbled.
