“Your coming here...made me so very happy. I wanted to keep dancing with you forever. That we should be so sad now...means we are very dear to each other. But really, there is nothing to be sad about...nothing at all.”
Taiyo Matsumoto, Cats of the Louvre

“That's right, Snowbébé. This world—it's cold and smelly.”
Taiyo Matsumoto, Cats of the Louvre

“Snowbébé, you've probably forgotten by now, but... Once, you looked at my body—my hairless body—and said it was pretty. So you see, your words made me so very happy. I always thought I was unattractive...”
Taiyo Matsumoto, Cats of the Louvre
