IC: Shortly after the Mistletoad debacle

[thekingsgambit]

[The silence between the cornfield and Boys 4 has just been interrupted by a loud, pathetic puppy cry. Those interested in going after the poor creature might discover the tiny black kitten that is presently clenching said puppy's paw in its mouth and puffed up to twice its normal size.]

-- I told you to put me down!




((This is actually open to whoever wishes to jump it and save the poor puppy. ;;))

What specific area? "The fields" is too general.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

The center ones. There is a grove there.

[ascendthethorns]

A grove...?

[Considers, considers, corn, sunflowers, daisies, puppies, kittens, plants, the season—

—she blinks and gives him an altered look; the one of deep-seated, unchecked accusation; the one that is also doubtful and protective and mournful for its intensity; the one that sometimes asserts itself in tense conversations on subjects that can be related back to Euphemia.]

She will be kept clear of it and any distant sounds of music.

[Manages to keep ears from flattening at that look, as it brings everything about the situation back to him. His claws tense on the ground.]

Very well.

[A long silence.]

That is all there was.

[ascendthethorns]

[yeah she's just glarin' and goin']

My, close enough he says... have you been in this state long now, master Lelouch?

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

[Oh, simmer. You know you find my commentary both witty and insightful.]

See, I would've thought you were above this kinda interspecies rivalry stereotype things...

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

Yeah, dude. One's a cat, one's a dog--together, they fight crime!

... or somethin'. They have, like, adventures of some kind. It's been a while since I've seen that movie.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

[Letting go and just glaring at.]

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

A few hours.

[Commences grooming.]

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

[Well, that was easy.]

Thank you for stoppin' hurting our friend.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

I was emphasizing a point.

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

The ones on the ends of your teeth?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

If they serve the purpose.

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

Duly noted.

Sooo... Why are you a cat now?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Camp.

[Slight twitch at tail tip.]

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

... not gonna be more specific, Whiskers?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

[Tail flicks from side to side.]

Since when does this place need a reason for its endless attempts to earn my annoyance?

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

Dude, even Camp's got its weird cause-an'-effect fixation. So I just thought I'd ask.

Anyway, back to the important thing. You're a cat--anythin' I can do to help?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

[I am not only a cat but a ridiculously young cat who can barely get around. o/ Also, looking very distracted and unfocused.]

Such as?

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

I dunno--carryin' you somewhere? Helpin' you find the litterbox?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

[Oh, I'm focused right now. >\]

I will manage.

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

[Yes, the hate is swelling in you now.]

For real, it's no trouble to give you a lift somewhere.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

It is better if I do not stray too far away from the cabin. It would only worry Nunnally.

She is enjoying it.

[2nd-slinger.livejournal.com]

Somehow I'm not surprised... Girls an' kittens, man--what're you gonna do?
