[Throughout Venkman's talking, Egin makes a few noises in protest, intermingled with "Well," and "That's not--" and so on and so forth. He eventually gives up, slumping against Ray for both physical and emotional support.
Upon being asked, Egon nods in response to Ray, still struggling to come up with a complete sentence. Needless to say, his ability to form coherent thought had long flown out the window when Venkman began to talk.
...He holds out two Pokéballs to Ray, and gestures towards Faraday and Doppler.]
...Please.
[A pause as an idea hits him and he slowly lifts his head to look at the PokéGear.]
Well, if you're so insistent on me using correct terms, perhaps I should use fornication rituals as a term from now on.
[Ray takes the Pokéballs from Egon and puts Faraday and Doppler away, giving Faraday a gentle pat on the head and a "Happy New Year" to her and just... awkwardly tossing the Pokéball at Doppler, worried about the possibility of getting bitten by him.
And then he hears about the "fornication ritual" again and he wants to Die.]
Egie please, I love you but I really don't want to think about the possibilities of "fornication rituals" when we're camping out in freezing weather.
[But Ray still completely loves him so he's going to gently kiss him on the lips the moment he's certain all of the Pokémon are put away.]
[Venkman roles his eyes, stupid grin still plastered on his face.]
Sure, Spengs. Least it doesn't kill the mood as bad as "mating rituals" does. But please don't use that word around anyone that's not us. Ever.
... Actually, please do, but tell me ahead of time. I wanna record it for posterity. I wanna see people's reactions.
[And then Ray kisses Egon, and he just. Moves his hands that are over Garfield's ears to cover his eyes instead. Don't look at your other new dads kissing, you're just a baby.]
You know, its like, 12:10 now. You guys are pretty late, now- gotta make up for it.
[Egon's eyes widen a bit when Ray kisses him--after all, this is still one of the first few times he's kissed an alternate version of one of his boyfriends. It's...familiar, though, and he almost immediately relaxes. After a few moments, he pulls away, draping an arm around Ray's shoulders.
He's...Good lord, is he grinning? What the hell, Spengler?]
As I said earlier, time is relative.
[And he plants another gentle kiss on Ray's lips.]
[Ray grins back. It's weird but it's warm and familiar and Egon. Even if they ended up missing it by a few minutes, he's glad he's ringing in the new year like this.
Before Egon gives him another kiss, however, Ray can't help but speak up.]
You know, I think you might be a better kisser than Venkman.
Hey! That's not fair, I can't even prove you wrong from here!
[Venkman pouts, crossing his arms and glaring into the camera. The Litten looks up, eyes suddenly uncovered, and peers in on the Pokegear again. Venkman immediately scoops him back up.]
Noooo you don't. Nah-uh. I don't think you're even old enough to be traumatized by seeing your dads- by seeing them kiss, but no.
Well, you'll have to come track us down to prove it, won't you?
[He crumples up the empty can of beer and places it in his bag for later disposal. Spengler ignores Peter trying to save the newlyborn cat and inches closer to Ray for warmth.]
...Perhaps it is best if we sleep soon. The last few hours of the year have been truly enjoyable.
That's the plan, Spengs. Just gotta figure out how to get to Saffron without going broke first. Gonna try to leave this hotel in the morning, I think, and then I gotta hike to... Viridian Forest, which'll take at least a couple days. And the forest at least a week to get through, according to the maps.
[Venkman sighs a little over-dramatically, dragging a hand over his face. Garfield reaches out and baps him on the face with his paw, leaving it there for several seconds.]
This'll be my last day in civilization for a while, I guess. Gonna miss it. At least I've got two fire-type things.
... Neither of you die out there in the cold. I'll never forgive ya.
...There's always Valentine's Day. Though I loathe to think of what capitalistic ventures this dimension has come up with to encourage heterosexual m-- [He stops.] --relationships.
[He takes off his glasses and places them on top of his bag, curling up next to Ray like a cat. Lately, he's been getting a lot more sleep than 14 minutes a day. He's not sure if it's a good change or not, but...at least Ray is there, too.]
I dunno, I think it could be fun. Even if this dimension celebrates the same basic holidays as our own, seeing this dimension's personal traditions to Valentines Day could be fun to experience in itself!
[Ray curls up against Egon as well.]
Night Pete, make sure you don't die out in the cold too, okay? I would never forgive myself if you died because I decided not to stick around New Bark Town a little while longer.
