[ With all the dog lovers in this place, they'll probably take the barking as excitement, an invitation to get closer instead of going away, so it works out. The main thing is drawing attention to Missile so neither person gets taken by surprise. ]
Does she not have a dining table she eats at?
[ Miss Lynne!! ]
Come to think of it, have people been feeding you alright here? Sometimes the food served for people isn't safe for dogs. I cooked dog food for Ling's dog, but she isn't here [ so presumably Jin Ling ate the dog food instead ] I could do the same for you.
[ Missile is going to be so plump by the end of the game and maaaaaaybe it'll be okay with all the running he does, but it's still not ideal. ]
Who's been feeding you candy? You know to stay away from chocolate, don't you?
[ And onions in sandwiches, and whatever other common things aren't good for dogs. Do dogs need veggies in their diet? He thinks so, but not a lot? he's never owned a dog before. ]
[ There are so many loud men, small shouting men, AND people who got beat up, so this description rules out nobody. ]
Chocolate is a type of candy, and could kill you if you eat it. There might be some in the kitchen pantries- I'll show you what it is so you know what it smells like, but do not taste it.
[ he could always just sit back and let natural selection take over ]
That's a good idea! And make sure to keep it somewhere high! In a cupboard that I can't open! Which shouldn't be that hard, since I don't have any thumbs.
[ To the kitchen! He might as well put all the snacks up at a high place so people can't gorge themselves on candy instead of real food, but he will be foiled due to the fact that more than half the people here are much taller than him anyways.
It's a quick trip to the kitchen, and then the hard part is finding chocolate that isn't in some sort of packaging he has to open to show Missile, because then he'd be obligated to eat it himself so he doesn't leave it lying around. Semi-sweet chocolate chips should do it, so he opens a bag and pours our a couple of chips into a bowl— he'd contemplated his hand for about half a second before realizing it would just melt- and picks Missile up so he can't get at the chocolate. ]
This is chocolate. It can be melted and put over a lot of different things, so it won't always look like this.
[ good call there, Ayabe! because Missile would totally lick your hand and die. but with the way he's dangling, all he can do is tentatively stretch out his neck and take a good sniff of the bowl. ]
It smells... very sweet! Do people eat this stuff every day?
I guess if you run around a lot like you do now, you can eat what you want and not get fat. But you need to eat good stuff too- protein and vitamin and minerals- so you can be big and strong.
[ As big as a little pomeranian cat get, anyways. But he's going to need to be healthy if he can be the best dog for everybody here. ]
Stronger, then. If you don't eat well, you won't have the energy to run around and ...do what you do.
[ Dog things, like being a dog. ]
Vitamins are nutrients in food that keep you healthy. You can have sweets on the side [ though maybe he shouldn't? Ayabe makes a note to check the library if there's anything about that, dogs probably shouldn't be eating sweets period ] but it's important to eat good food. It should mostly be meat.
[ Maybe by the end of the week, he'll be able to collect enough spare limbs to protect everybody.
Ayabe's holding onto him still, so if he turns and stretches just a little, Missile will be able to reach up and lick him on the jaw. He looks surprised for a moment, before his expression softens. Missile gets a pat on the head after he sets the chocolate aside. A good boy. ]
You're welcome. I want you to stay safe, after all.

I'll hold onto you so you can't get at it. Will that work?

That's good. Stick with those chicken dinners, Missile.
