[video turns on, but the screen's back and blurry and the only sound that can be heard is something that sounds oddly like the purring of a cat. After a moment the culprit is found when it lifts its nose from the screen to stare down at the video feed-surprise! It's Dalamar, or for those of you who don't know Dalamar, a fluffy cheetah-esque cat- ( Read more... )

[ Ava sees you, there, baby. :|

There's a sigh as her video feed cuts on, and she's visibly tapping at the lens to draw Dalamar's attention to her. ]

Dalamar. Bad.

What did you do -- ?

[dsfjkh o shi--

Dalamar's ears perk at the tapping, and when the kitty looks down and sees/hears Ava, he stands to lean over just enough to press his nose back down against the screen and start purring again. Which is probably going to make Ava's communicator sound like a really bad cat!version of a darth vader breathing mask BUT...

HE HAS SOME SELECTIVE HEARING LIKE SOMEONE ELSE...]

-- Nevermind.

[ Ava falls silent when Dalamar presses his nose to the communicator, purring into it. Her expression, however, falters just a little, and there's maybe just a hint of a smile before she's rubbing one gloved hand over her face, masking whatever it was that had been there moments earlier.

She leans back over her own communicator, long strands of hair falling over her shoulder as she peers at him through the camera. ]

Shall I come fetch you? [ The camera shifts a little as Ava picks it up, standing, the metal from her sheathed weapon clinking audibly against solid stone. ] I think I'd like a walk, anyway.

[Picks face up off communicator and is still purring quite loudly. It could have been assumed earlier he just doesn't understand anything, but he seems to have understood that suggestion as he's staring at the screen with an almost expectant look, but is definitely waiting patiently.]

We'll go see Caim, mm -- ?

[ She taps at the lens again, touching his little nose on her screen :c, and then the connection terminates. ]

[Dalamar is sitting where he was when Ava cut the connection and he's been purring the entire time, just waiting for her. The communicator is still droning some white noise but overall things look to be quiet and calm in the area.

Actually, the animal isn't too far at all from the archives, and Dalamar may not understand too much when humans and others like them speak to him, he does understand some things with ease. Going to see Caim is one of them and that makes him happy!! Ava and Caim together surely will be more fun than just one or the other, afterall. Well, Ava will be fun on her own. Just not as much as the two will be together. Caim not so much, probably.

His ears twitch as his tail flicks once. Then again, maybe he shouldn't have stolen Caim's stuff, then Caim would be more fun on his own, too.

Dalamar chirps in revelation, but doesn't really feel bad about it. Obviously Caim's disposition is a result of depression or something else.

...Oh, hindsight.]

[ Ava arrives on location shortly after she terminates the connection, gloved hand resting loosely on the hilt to her weapon as she slows to a stop once spotting Dalamar. The atmosphere is crisp, clear, unusually nice, and she tilts her chin skyward slightly, closing her eyes for the briefest of seconds to let fair skin soak in the shining sun.

It only lasts for a fraction of a minute before she's moving forward again, expression calm but warmer than usual, less guarded, more open, something that very few people got to see. But, well, it's Dalamar, after all, and it isn't like he was about to run off and tell everyone Ava's secrets.

There's a bit of a pause, a small little ( bemused ) sigh, and then she's kneeling in front of him, fingers moving from her sword to stroke over Dalamar's ears and fur. ]

What am I going to do with you?

[Play a game with him of course! He mews when he sees her, immediately scampering over to her like a puppy happy to see its master. Ava isn't Caim or Dai, but she's special to him and she always takes good care of him and always opens the door to Caim's room when he's sleeping and Dalamar wants to get in to jump on the bed and and...

The large cat circles the Earth Magister, going under her cloak before coming around her other side, just rubbing up against her like he's some overgrown house cat. His nose pokes into her hand to encourage some petting and ear scratching, but mostly, he's just excited to actually see her out of the little noisy box he took from Caim!

And Ava will make Caim stop drooling on the table in the library. Dalamar tried, but he might have ripped Caim's coat a little in the process, so... oops. It's better someone else does the waking and maybe Caim won't notice. Just like maybe he won't notice his talking!box is gone.]
