Takao being Takao knows the real answer, it's why he posed the question. One of these times, Midorima is going to surprise him and give the answer he knows, instead of the one he expects. Or maybe he won't, it all remains to be seen after all.
"I'll be there." It is likely he will be there before seven am, he wants on that team. There is nothing, not even this place that can take that urge away. Takao is determined to be on the court and play basketball with Midorima. So getting there earlier and putting in a little extra practice won't hurt. The other should not be surprised to arrive and find him already running the court with a basketball in hand.
"Oi, who said I was your dog sitter, huh?" He is laughing though and, of course, giving the fluff a nuzzle. It's pathetic really how easily he goes from smart ass to adorable all because he is playing with a puppy. If Midorima listens, he'll hear Takao talking to Merlin as they walk away.
"You're cute and all, but I'm bathing alone, got it." He does not take long though he does continue to speak to the dog as he finishes. Inane things just a general chatter and goofiness that is natural to the fun-loving point guard. "Merlin, don't come to close, I should have gotten my other jersey." He slings the dirty one over his shoulder, leaving a towel over his head. He walks out with Merlin rubbing the water from raven locks.
"All yours, Shin-chan" Takao calls out as he sits Merlin down. Trotting over to drop his folded jersey near his shoes, he'll put it on when he leaves, but it is not clean enough to eat in from his point of view. He is missing his duffel with his extra uniform at the moment.
