"Are you okay? I'm feline fine. What did you think of that, Mitobe?"
To say that Shun Izuki was shocked was an understatement. All this time with Mitobe and Koganei, and he was just now learning that they were also versed in the fine art of pun-making? Granted, Koganei had always looked annoyed whenever Izuki made puns, and he was never quite sure if Mitobe was even listening to him, but still!
"I gato the jokes? You kot me there. You have meow."
Ugh, never mind. Koganei wasn't taking this seriously enough for Izuki's taste.
"Kitten kore."
That does it. "What exactly do you think you're doing, Koganei? You are ruining the fine art of pun making."
"No more than you do on a daily basis."
"That was cold."
"Cats aren't exactly known for being friendly."
"I'm more of a dog person, anyway. I don't mind mine always hounding me."
"Anyone who likes dogs over cats is barking mad."
"You've got to be kitten me. Dogs are far superior to those stupid cats."
"Is there a reason you called us? Mitobe and I have to go to work now."
"Work? Where could Mitobe possibly work?"
"We work at Pizza Man. He works in the kitchen, and I work at the counter. I've had to do deliveries, too. One of the old ladies I've delivered to a few times tried to adopt me. Then there was the time this businesswoman picked up some pizzas for her coworkers and tried to flirt with Mitobe."
"How awkward was it?"
"She thought I was making excuses when I said that he was mute. That, and she didn't believe me when I said he was seventeen."
"That must have been hard."
"Yeah, but my manager was able to take care of her. He said that she'd probably been drinking, so that must have had something to do with it, too."
"So, she wanted a pizza Mitobe, huh?"
"Goodbye."
I can't actually imagine Koganei making any puns, except for cat puns. Maybe.
Next time, we have Riko, Hyuga and Kiyoshi.
Thanks for reading!
