homeless muse finally gets a journal ... at the request of a friend/canonmate.

[cockteaser]

Miss Mundane!

This journal name you've given me is inappropriate and vulgar! I kindly ask that you change it. Now, please!

I understand you've accepted this username based on the request of Hisui's Mundane, but I don't exactly enjoy the idea of having to be known in this place or any other by this ... this vulgarity!

Why what's wrong with that name? There were a lot of cock teasers in my town. Kids used to pick on them all the time for fun!

[cockteaser]

The insinuation of which she based it on isn't appropriate in the least.

[magic101]

Oh, c'mon. It's not that bad!

[Lillet, your country bumpkin is showing...]

[cockteaser]

[ she clears her throat. ]

I appreciate the sentiments, Miss, however ... I do believe I would like to convince my Mundane to give me a different identity.

[magic101]

Well... if it really bothers you so much...

...

Is it really that bad?

[There's no reason to take it personal, Lillet :(]

[cockteaser]

I believe there are more fitting terms that could be used for me. Less vulgar ones, too.

[ Nono, please, she doesn't want you to feel bad. :( ]

[magic101]

...cocks are vulgar?

[cockteaser]

... Of a sort. There are multiple meanings of the word.

[magic101]

H-Huh?

[cockteaser]

[ in all of her years of being alive, Lithia never thought she would have to explain such a thing ... ]

One meaning of the word refers to a rooster. That is quite possibly the meaning you are thinking of. The other meaning, though ...

[ she looks away, cheeks burning. ]

... refers to a specific part of a male's anatomy.

[magic101]

A specific... [Oh. She flushes, but... you know, right now she's more confused than embarrassed.]

W-Why would it be called that? They... um look nothing alike!

[cockteaser]

I don't know the exact details of how it came to be known as such, but the fact of the matter is that it is.

[magic101]

O-oh!! Well! That's!! [nervous laugh]

Perhaps we can just pretend it means the chicken! If you think about it that way, the name is kind of funny!

[ha-ha... ha...]

[cockteaser]

... I suppose it is? They are quite amusing creatures.

[magic101]

I'll say! We had one cock sit on top of our house every morning and he'd crow and crow, and then he'd sit right up there as proud as can be. And no matter what we did he would just sit and watch with his big puffy chest.

We nicknamed him 'King.' And of course me and my brothers would get caught feeding him sometime.

[cockteaser]

[ She has to admit, this is quite an adorable story. She would not mind hearing more at all! ]

It sounds as though you really enjoyed King. Do you have any other stories about him?

[magic101]

Well... no. Other than my brothers an I would get scolded fierce when mom caught us. And then we'd have to go without supper.

[her tone softens a bit at the thought, but a part of her is also smiling wistfully]

We never found out what happened to King. I guess I always sort of assumed a cat got him.

[cockteaser]

[ Oh ... that's kind of sad. ]

I'm sure King appreciated you and your brothers for showing him such kindness and feeding him, though.
