[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.

[Yeah he's joining in on the Venkman torture.]

Perhaps. I had a blast tonight with you two.
And to you too, Garfield! I can't wait to finally meet you in person.
